It was an easy play dealing with the fool forest-jacks who'd swallowed the Skandinavia's dope. Yes. That was easy," he added thoughtfully. "But that was just the start of the game. Father Adam had located the trail of the outfit the Skandinavia had sent and it was my job to come right up with 'em and silence 'em." He broke off and sat staring straight in front of him.
Skandinavia will buy the mill on Labrador. The Sachigo mill. I come on the night train, which is the worst thing I can think to do, to say this thing. If we do not buy this mill, then " He broke off with an expressive gesture. Elas nodded. He was startled, but his powers of dissimulation were profound. "I understand," he said. "They have been approached?"
The Skandinavia seems to have got a grouch about now you couldn't beat with a tank of rye whisky. You've seen it all as far as I can show you, mam, and I'd be glad to know if you're satisfied I've done the things you want. If I have, and you feel good about it, I'd be thankful if you'd report the way we're workin' this camp.
It was to convince him, for the sake of his own wellbeing in the Skandinavia, that he must make no mistake in the warfare he must wage against the people of Sachigo. It was for him to wage the battle with every faculty that was in him; and any failure of his would mean disaster for himself. This was no commercial warfare. It was the insane purpose of a monomaniac.
Incredulity robbed the man of the even calmness of' his manner. "Yes. Why not?" The challenge in the girls's eyes was unmistakable. "You won't buy him," Father Adam said quietly. "And you certainly won't crush him." "Because I'm a girl?" "Oh, no. I was thinking of the Skandinavia." The man shook his head. "If I'm a judge of men, the crushing will be done from the other end of the line."
We're a thousand miles of hell's own winter, and a pretty tough sea, from the politicians who spend their lives befooling a crowd of unthinking muttons. Pay 'em well, and feed 'em well, and they've the horse sense to know there ain't no electric stoves out in the Labrador forests in winter. That way we don't need to worry. If it's the Skandinavia tricks it's different.
Guess Skandinavia would fancy me meeting their representative at the quay quite a lot." The argument met with Bat's entire approval. He pulled out a silver timepiece and consulted it. "That's all right," he said, "I'll quit you in ha'f an hour. Say I'm kind of guessin' there's other representatives of the Skandinavia around. I didn't guess ther' was much to Sachigo that I wasn't wise to.
These forests are average and I'd like to say to the Skandinavia, 'you've got to figger results on the average. We're cutting down to the minimum because we've got to, to feed the booms right. Well, that's goin' on if I know my job. There's patch stuff better. I daresay there's new ground on our limits liable to hand us Shagaunty stuff. But that's just as I say, patch stuff, an' not average.
Hellbeam stirred his bulk in the chair Nancy had so recently occupied. It was a movement of irritation. "That is for you. You represent Skandinavia. I I say this thing. I the money find." The face of Peterman was a study. His eyes were serious, his manner calmly considering. Amazement was struggling with a desire to laugh outright in the face of this grossly insolent money power.
This strange creature, with his deprecating manner, and smiling, sane eyes, filled her with a sense of shame at his utter selflessness. She nodded. "You mean they always want help?" "Sure. Same as we all do." Father Adam sipped his coffee appreciatively. "But tell me," he said. "It's kind of new the Skandinavia sending a woman along up here. It's your first trip?" Nancy set her cup down. "Yes."
