:21:01
Well, I'm just about done.
:21:15
How's your pretty gal?
:21:18
Melinda's not so well, Paul.
:21:21
Not so well at all.
:21:24
More headaches?
:21:26
Got laid up with another one yesterday.
:21:29
Worst one yet.
:21:31
I'll be taking her over to Vicksburg
next day or so for some tests.
:21:36
Head x-rays and who knows what else.
:21:39
She is scared to death.
:21:43
Truth to tell, so am l.
:21:46
If it's something they can see
on the x-ray. . .
:21:50
. . .maybe they can fix it.
:21:52
Maybe.
:21:58
This just came in.
:22:00
DOE on Bitterbuck.
:22:05
You didn't come down here
to hand me a DOE.
:22:08
I had an angry call from the
state capitol about 20 minutes ago.
:22:13
Is it true you ordered Percy Wetmore
off the block?
:22:15
It is.
:22:17
Now, I'm sure you had reason, Paul. . .
:22:21
. . .but like it or not, the wife
of the governor has only one nephew. . .
:22:25
. . .and his name is Percy Wetmore.
:22:27
Little Percy calls his aunt. . .
:22:29
. . .and squeals like a schoolroom sissy.
:22:34
He mention he assaulted a prisoner
this morning out of sheer petulance?
:22:38
Broke three fingers
on Eduard Delacroix's left hand.
:22:41
I didn't hear that.
I'm sure she didn't either.
:22:43
He is mean, careless and stupid. . .
:22:45
. . .and that's a bad combination
in a place like this.
:22:48
Sooner or later, he'll get
somebody hurt or worse.
:22:51
Stick with it, Paul.
:22:53
It may not be much longer.
:22:54
I have it on good authority that Percy
has an application in at Briar Ridge.
:22:59
Briar Ridge? The mental hospital.
