Them other fellas could have killed me before I'd have told them. But I'd have told Ella. What are you talking about, Obeye? You'd have told Ella what? About my gold money. Your money? It's in the rain barrel outside, Marshall. A whole big sack full of gold double eagles. What? You mean you had that money all the time? Sure, it's true. But you won't tell nobody. Will you, Marshall?
