You see, Lou, that Fuller has a head on him. He's buying and trading for every bit of land he can get up here. " "Why can't we? We'll live longer than he will. " Lou laughed. "It could be worth that, and still not be worth much. Why, Alexandra, you don't know what you're talking about. Our place wouldn't bring now what it would six years ago.

A golden afterglow throbbed in the west, but the country already looked empty and mournful.
