 Jim Field spoke slowly, eyes on the girl. eff you want to save your Pablito," he said, you'll write him . letter saying that it's all over that you never did care for him and the whole thing was a mis- take. Otherwise we'll read of his being strapped in that chair. We'll read about it-after it's all over"
