You laughed at me the other night when I warned you that politics was mixed up in this Interprovincial manoeuvring. Watch me prove it. I'll send you a marked copy of the paper." "Bluff! Listen to him, Nat!" "I'm not in the habit of bluffing, Wade." McAllister's jaw was set as he patted the edge of the table for emphasis.
