  Patsy Lewis : My father is Frank Lewis.

• Marv Jennings : What was all that talk about that silver box?

  Marv Jennings : Are you sure it was your Ma's?

And Frank Lewis is famous too. Now you take two men like that and you put them together in the same skin, why you get a package people are gonna want to be reading about forever.

  Marv Jennings : What about those tales we heard when we was in that jail in Cincinnati, about how Frank Lewis was cleaning up Springtown, about how he did it, all singlehanded, all without wearing a gun and all that hogwash. And you said at the time, it sounded to you just like your own baby brother Jed.
