"No; I'll tell you, it'll be my watch until you pay me back, but you keep it for me.

A farm ?" "No, an emporium--and you forgot his name just the way that lady in the casting office always does.

Of course it's a little town, but you wouldn't forget it when you lived there a long time--not when you got your start there." "So you got your start in this town, did you ?" He wanted to talk a lot now.
