You're better of it, already, or you couldn't talk so glibly about it.

Now, about this treasure-business: You know, of course, that you'll have to drop it,--that you'll have to give up every cent of it to the Government?
If you can't find the cache, up North, where Hade used to send it when he lugged it away from here, it is likely to go a bit hard with you.

I'm going to do all I can to get you clear.

Not for your own sake, but for your sister's.

But you'll have to 'come through, clean,' if I'm to help you.
