consider the recompense received by
them now but poor reward for the

time they give to their duty and work
performed during the course of year,
they are the poorest paid fremen in
the country, and, furthermore. do
not receive as much as common

between them and the police 1 do not
think there is any, as the latter are on
duty but half the time that they are,
and the chances which they have to

you see fit to do so. -
