• Paxton Bryce : At least we had some excitement when we owned the old Hattie T.

  Dan Taylor : Wasn't it your idea to swap her for this?

  Paxton Bryce : Yeah, but the whole set-up has changed! There was a war on - a man could make some real money. Or don't you remember?

  Dan Taylor : Oh, I remember all right. I remember getting a broadside from a Union gunboat amidships and taking splinters from my, um, hide for two weeks.

  Paxton Bryce : You got a hundred dollars for each splinter.

  Dan Taylor : That's right - in Confederate money!

• Dan Taylor : The war's over Pax. We can't start another one, just because you're restless.
