He was buried there in that Castle, over the station Trench's Castle, they called it." "All that lumber there by the station?" "That came out of the Ashtown woods.

A sudden clutch on Trench's arm, the blaze of the old-time fury in burning eyes, as Vic's hoarse voice cried: "For God's sake, Trench, get out of my sight!" "I will," drawled Trench. "The only friend you ever had. I'll carry my troubles up to Big Chief Funnybone.
Pick out any place you want, train them to handle those damned Legals the way Murdoch handled the Stonewall boys. In return, the sky's the limit. Name your own salary, once you've done the job.
