"Yes, just the thing! Won't 'Choko's Find' suit it?"
"Great! And it was little Choko that found it, too. If he hadn't fallen over the cliff we never would have discovered the cave and the rest of it."
"We'll call it that—'Choko's Find!' Say, everybody! Listen to this:
The mine is going to be called 'Choko's Find'—do you like it?" called

"Simms, do you remember Montresor's nuggets and legacy?" asked Mr.
Brewster.
The lawyer looked quickly up at his questioner and a look of understanding crept into his eyes. "Sam, Ah reckon it is the same!"
"The ledge, the canyon, the trails and the river!" added Mr.
Brewster, convincingly.
