The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Virginian by Owen Wister: "I've saw him number one when nobody else was around," said
Trampas.
"How far away was you standin' when you beheld that?" inquired
the lounging Southerner.
"Well, boys," said Wiggin, "I expect it will be Miss Schoolmarm
says who's number one tonight."
"So she's arrived in this hyeh country?" observed the Virginian,
very casually.
"Arrived!" said Trampas again. "Where have you been grazing
lately?"
"A right smart way from the mules."
