Some years had passed since Ralph's prophecy had come true, and Perry and the remaining Blackwoods had been "relieved" of the Boyne Street line. The process need not be gone into in detail, being the time-honoured one employed in the Ribblevale affair of "running down" the line, or perhaps it would be better to say "showing it up."

Many of these had allowed themselves to be won over or cowed by the oratory which had crushed Krebs. Nor did the Ribblevale people be it recorded scruple to fight fire with fire. Their existence, of course, was at stake, and there was no public to appeal to.
Watling says, there is no sufficient penalty in other states to compel the witness to produce the information desired, why not draw up a bill and and have it passed " I paused for breath "imposing a sufficient penalty on home corporations in the event of such evasions. The Ribblevale Steel Company is a home corporation."

But Ralph Hambleton knew of it, of course.

Since I am not writing a technical treatise, I need not go into the details of the Ribblevale suit.
