"Do you want me to read it to you?"
"What's it about?"
"An assault warrant sworn out by a man named Trull. Let's see," the trooper glanced at the warrant, "Luke Trull."
Andy clenched his jaws. Joe Wilson, who had said that Luke would not fight back, but would go to the State Police if Andy hit him, had known exactly what he was talking about.
The trooper looked steadily at Andy. "Well?"
"That's right."
"You assaulted this Trull character?"
"Yes."
"And you admit it?"
"I admit it."
