Telegraphing was much more expensive in those days forty years ago than it is now. And yet in neither of these dispatches was there any seeming effort to spare words. That was Captain Will Hallam's rule and practice. His frequent instruction to all his subordinates ran somewhat in this wise: "Never save a word in telegraphing at the risk of being misunderstood.
The encouragement that this brought him, backed up by Arthur Hallam's declaiming the piece in public as a sort of defi to detractors caused him to fix his attention more assiduously on verse. He could write it was the only thing he could do and so he wrote.

"I went back to the mine after Damer's death," he said. "Got there just before sun up, and we had our stakes in before Hallam's men quite realized what we were after.

Two or three of the others, however, called on the nearest recorder's at the same time as me. We came down in the same cars, you see." "Have we any chance at all?" said Forel. Alton smiled dryly.
Stafford, how many shares we can control in the X National Tandy's bank; he's president, you know." Without at all understanding Captain Hallam's purpose, Duncan went upon this mission, returning presently with the information that in one way and another the Hallam bank controlled forty-eight shares of the X National's stock or three shares less than a majority of the whole.
