STRANGER. They have got everything.
RUDOLPH. Everything?
STRANGER. The double walls, the respected family of smugglers, the pillory, the hairpins——
RUDOLPH. What hairpins?
STRANGER. I don't know, but they are there. Do you know?
RUDOLPH. Naw!
STRANGER. Everything was brought to light, and you may look for a stream of people coming here to stare at all that exposed rottenness.
