You know that." The superintendent nodded.
"Perhaps not," he said; "but you are still a suspect, and you have no right to leave the town." "I'm not a prisoner," said Anson defiantly, "and I'm going on my lawful way.

Plunder?
Why, it's sickening! Didn't you come to my place and thoroughly search it ?" "I did search your room, but found nothing, because I believe you had everything too well hidden.

Now then, if you please, what have you got in your wagon ?" "Nothing but provisions and my clothes! Why ?" "Because of your sudden flight." "My sudden what ?" said Anson, laughing.
"You know what I said, sir.

Your sudden flight!" "My sudden nonsense!" cried Anson angrily.
