note, and the killing in the hotel

knew Winters could have learned
about me from only two people

And Sam was too scared to talk.
So l headed for Pearson's."
Rosy looked at him for a long
moment, then turned to Pearson.

I'll 60 on" Crowell raped
out, sneering at Pearson. Let
me tell about this Eastern genius.
The lake was ready to blow
when Dave got home. When
Pearson heard about Turner COM
ing home, he lost his nerve. He
hired Freeman to bushwhack
Dave, and make it look like Ham
mond did it. Then he had Sayres
blow the lake out. When Ham,
mond wouldn't sell, even then,
he ordered Dorsey Hammond
kidnapped Hammond would have
to sell the mine to get the money
to ransom her, and of course,
Pearson'S money that l would
give Hammond for the mine
would go to Sayres and back to
me and then to Pearson again. "
Crowell Sneered, and smiled evil
ly at Pearson. HE even ordered

Mrs. Winters would be frightened
into selling her half the place"

sheriff. Crowell backed away a
few feet across the bed, his gun
nosing steadily at his captors.
He was laughing quietly,
little insanely, in the still room.

ELL" Rosy said softly. you'll on
ly get one of us before we cut
down on YOU"
Crowell laughed again, that
soft, insane laugh that struck
chills to Rosy's spine. Crowell
turned to Pearson, who had not
moved in the last minute. The
bankers face was gray with
fear.
Lets get out, Crowell," Pear
son said.
"You squealing swine," Crow
ell said tonelessly, "a kind of Sc
cret mad delight in his voice. II
would have died for you and you
turn me in" Slowly his gun
swiveled to Pearson, but his eyes
were on Rosy and the sheriff.
Pearson backed away against the
wall, uttering small, unearthly
cries of terror. Crowell slid his
eyes to the gun and shot twice at
Pearson. The bankers scream
was cut short and he folded up
like tired child. Crowell's gun
was trained again on Rosy and
the sheriff, who did not dare
move.
"A good job, wasn't it?" Crow
ell asked. Mary moaned a little
in the corner.
Suddenly, Crowell laughed a
high, frenzied laugh of a maniac,
turned the gun to his chest and
pulled the trigger. The impact
of his own shot bumped him
against the wall and he sagged
to the floor.
"Prob'ly the first good thing he
ever DONE" Laredo, said softly.
Rosy fell in beside Mary as
they left the doctors. Laredo
and Quinn were ahead of them.
The rest had stayed behind a
moment.
Let's walk slow" Mary said.
Il reckon l feel that way too -
Rosy answered. 1T come a little
too fast"
The silence was long.
Rosy, do you mind telling me
things?' Mary asked presently.

Let's lift up our eyes from the short range
view of America.
All Of us have been living through difficult
times. but anyone who knows the spirit that
built America knows that these times must pass.
And just as transportation originally built
America. SO railroads. as the nations basic
transportation system today, must be ready to
carry the banner Of future advance.
As all experience shows. a railroad IS neUer
finished. To keep its service abreast Of the
times-to step up its schedules with safety
to keep the cost Of transportation low-it needs
continuously to replace the old with the new.
What that can mean in Jobs and purchases
will be seen by such modest estimate as this:
To replace so Of the freight cars in service
would call for 1895 new freight cars every
year. and to build one freight Car provides 1887
man-hours OF work.
The Skyland post. [volume] (West Jefferson, N.C.) 193?-1988, 1939-01-26

To replace SO of all locomotives in service
would call for 1884 locomotives each pEovid-
ing work for so men for one year.
To continue the work of reducing grades.
Strengthening curves. building stronger track.
installing safety signals. and the like. at the
same rate as in the years from 1925 to 1886,
would call for somewhat more than $300000..
600 year.
Here is a rebuilding program which would
set axes ringing in the forests and coal and ore
rolling from the mines. which would keep men
busy in the ruddY glow of the steel rnills-a
program which would help farmers. labor, ship
pers, and be real contribution to national
defense.
The American railroads are ready to press
forward with this program. if they can get the
means with the same spirit that has brought
such tremendous strides in the past and now
provides the finest transportation in the world.
