( Would've been the old days, they be hangin'em off the yardarm for running their slack mouths each way like rabid dogs, would be the whip, aye! Would be stones and leaving them to dry for seagulls to pick their eyes, would be something wicked slow, somethin'terrible.

He'll be snoring, next Mr. Eames wanders, so he keeps his current visitation short, stares at the infidel through the bars and rattles'em a little for show. )
