"Don't mention it. Jack. I'll be three times as happy with you beside me, than if I had to have another alongside. But that isn't quite all, boy."

Think of a double killing, Jack, will you?"
Jack went through a pantomime that indicated his abounding joy over the prospect of cutting off the responsible heads of the enemy at a single blow.
"This sounds good to me," he said. "And now, Tom, what has it all to do with the prospect of our paying that visit to Jeanne's uncle, and forcing him to give up little Helene? Tell me that!"
