Colonel Mason added: "This is public land, and the gold is the property of the United States; all of you here are trespassers, but, as the Government is benefited by your getting out the gold, I do not intend to interfere."

I can at the same time arrange to get the girl, whom I intend to bring from here, into the Exchange, and as soon as possible get her acquainted with Chase. But see here, don't you think it best to get some of the stolen money to use in this case?" "Certainly," said Maroney, "My wife will give you all the money you need.

"I will do nothing that can be an injury to you hereafter," answered the statesman. "Something tells me that you have had nothing to do with this dreadful murder.

I am going to do this job; and I have men enough to finish it in a couple of hours." "I should think you had," added Mrs. Wilford. "I have gathered together all the men I could find.

I was very unhappy about it all, but thought I would not add to the trouble by complaining, as I did not see how I could remedy the matter.
