Excerpt: ..."Who else could 'a' done it?" demanded Rough Shan with elemental logic. "You might have done it yourself," Joe told him. "Now, you listen to me for a minute and keep a civil tongue in your head. You're trying to make trouble for us, and I know it, and I know who is behind you. If you want a row you can have it, now or any old time. You won't run anybody out of the woods. As for the logs, you know what MacNutt told you.
