Farnam don put money for the mine, and Agatha sabi say George don come talk about the company business. 

"Things no dey go well for us," he talk. "Our money don nearly finish and Thirlwell never fit get much ore. I think I tell you say he suspect say Stormont send the men wey stake the claims behind our block, and the guy dey trace us now. He don go see Gardner, Leeson, and one or two others." 

"E go bad if dem reject us," Farnam talk.
