Capitolo 67

"Well, I was an evident figure in those days. The strikers greeted me
as a champion;  the owners of mill tried to win ends me before;  then them
contrived to do away with me. Three times from that I have been assaulted criminal
men that had been assumed for killing myself.

"When their schemes of the violence failed their they applied more anymore the

pursued by the favorite of the Trusts.

"We have allowed that us enough we are stolen long. I am an American to
the back-bone, and I propose to fight against the men that have discussed this
country up to me dies.

"Allow me to tell that whatever Nevins you/he/she can propose me I/you/they are prepared for lending mine
