I had to make good. I had to show your father and you that I had not thrown away all your kindness. So I quit travelling that downhill road on which I had got started." "I'm glad I'm so glad." She whispered it so low he could hardly hear. "There was one way to prove myself. That was to stand between Sam and trouble. So I butted in and spoiled Soapy's game."
And remembering how you butted in on politics in this county last fall and provided a slush-fund to beat me and place a crook on the Superior Court bench, in order to give you an edge in the many suits you are always filing or having filed against you, I rise to remark that you have about ten split seconds in which to disappear from my office.
