He has had a cinch there so long he thinks it's his private pond.

Without | Crow harbor as a market I could not have done what I have done this season, But Crow harbor could shut down tomorrow—and I'd go on just the same.” Stubby poked thonghtfuly with a| pencil at the blotter on his desk. “Well, Jack, I may as well be quite| | frank with you,” he said at last. “I/to have had hints that mean something. at Squitty in another month. may 1 don't believe I can be dictated to on short | ut I cannot positively say.|toys from Snitcher-fnatch, a wicked notice.
