Some of the best cattle and some of the finest horses--and there were some real plums among the horses--had a strange brand, JJ.
'Who does the JJ brand belong to ?' I said to father.

'They're the pick of the lot, whose ever they are.' Father looked black for a bit, and then he growled out, 'Don't you ask too many questions, lad.

There's only four living men besides yourselves knows about this place; so take care and don't act foolishly, or you'll lose a plant that may save your life, as well as keep you in cash for many a year to come.

That brand belongs to Starlight, and he was the only man left alive of the men that first found it and used it to put away stock in.

He wanted help, and told me five years ago.
