I asks, just who is this Mister Jacko? How did ya meet this person? Tell me! Ya blame foolish boy! Where in hell is yar sister! Ranger, Mister Jacko came ta me, after a few hands, he had deep pockets. He just won over two hundred Washington. He asks ifin I new couple young ladies ta choose from. Fer a relaxing couple days of fun, maybe a turn in the sheets. What ya get in return?

Ranger gots three Jefferson, ifin I found a lady he liked, well I'd get, two Washington fer it. Ranger ain't never had that much trinkets in my life! Probably never see that much again! Besides, Mister Jacko he asked this befer. Last year I think it was. Only made two Jefferson though. Pay is better this time.

Again! Where is Norma? I won't asks again! I don't know where she is, besides ain't my sister's keeper! Now am I Ranger! Folks! That is exactly how he put it! Folks! I jumped from my chair, threw the table over! Grabbed that ill headed fool, by the shirt an pulled him close ta my face! Shook him, yelled ya blame fool I know my hot breath an spit must hit his face! I just soon beat it out a ya! Where does this Jacko live? I scream yar sister could be in danger! Why I could hold ya accountable fer it! That mean the death penalty son! I'd just love to blow yar damn brains out! Folks I was shakin like a mad man!

Reginald gulped air in like, one that just had wind knocked from him. He say, I ain't been there. Last time he was at number 50 Harbor Way, an closed up Import office! Ranger, I truly don't know where Norma is! That's all I know about Mister Jacko I swear Ranger! Folks about that time, the Constable showed. Guess the Gamblin House sent fer him. Told him ta hold this one, suspect of helpin a murderer. Reginald shouted suspect of helpin a murderer? I ain't helped no murderer!

Folks, number 50 Harbor Way, is three blocks south a us. Me an Doc headed that way! On foot! Didn't think Doc had it in him ta keep up! Well he stayed with me, folks I was out a breath, but I kept my stride up! Miss Norma, I was hopin was still alive! Hell I knew better than ta hope that! Still I needed hope folks! Folks two doors befer number 50, why I slowed held Doc back. Tell Doc best get that pistol I let ya barie. Slow an easy, I get the door open! Ya follow just behind me move ta my left when we go in!

Poor Miss Norma looked ta be sleepin. She was on her right side legs pulled up ta her stomach right arm under her legs, her left arm lay on  her legs. Clothes on a table that was clean no blood on it or the clothes.

Don't care what laws ya break get me ta the Mosser place now! I heard the reins snap and a shout a get up! Folks that carriage swayed an bounced, with every bump an turn!
