Chapter 29:
The Mines started up again.
Burton found out about the towns people that where raising money to out bid him, and crashed another town meeting. A man came in ( No one knew him ) And asked for some water, pored some stuff in it and drank it, he said something about the water and Burton read it as it was healing water.
Later the town got together at court to settle the buying of the late Witto Cane's property, Shady went up against Burton but of coarse Burton won, but he only bought it because he thought it was healing water, but it was not; the man that no one knew really was Miss Larkin's nephew, and what he put in the water was for his upset stomach, so Burton was wrong, and this whole thing was planned by Jinx. Burton got fired and him and his boss Devlin ran out of the court as fast as they could knowing they were outsmarted.
