"Very well; then I will stay in the closet and you can cut your bareback out. You do not have to pay it unless you want to."
Sully growled and handed out the money.
Phil put it in his pocket with a smile and half audible chuckle that did not tend to make Sully feel any the less irritable.
"Perhaps it is a good thing that I am a prisoner if I have got to stay with this outfit."
"Why?" snapped the showman.
