Off again as wild as ever. ((Comes down, and looks at SILAS.)) Another moment, and he'd have been at his throat. What could have moved him so? SILAS (moves). Along the ravine-- TOM (starts back). Ah! that old story. How often have we heard it! Nevada's oft-told story in this stranger's mouth. Has he in truth, as Nevada said, struck the trail that leads to the lost mine? Has he found the clew to the mystery of years? If he has, 'tis marked, and should be found. There's a fortune for him who strikes it. A fortune would set Dick free, and make Agnes my wife. So, Tom Carew, for love and friendship try your luck, and-- SILAS (moves and mutters). Look out for paint.
