Just so long as you can get him off, Judge.

JUDGE

I think a case of assault could be made against the Kimbal boys, and I think it would stand.

JANE

What of it?

JUDGE

It is quite possible that the old man, if he knew that action was to be taken against his sons, and if he could be tactfully assured of payment for his barn, say by Ben, in a year’s time, might be persuaded to petition to have the indictment against Ben withdrawn. In that event, I think the chances would be very much in Ben’s favor.

JANE

I don’t care what names you call it, so long as it’s done. Will you fix it?
