He reveals his identity, extracts Miss Matthews’s money, and transports Riggs to a desolate Labrador-like wilderness to face exile and redemption. Riggs begs for mercy, but Haynes delivers a grim justice and plans a difficult rescue.

Paced Wasps Driven by Sweat Odor to Escape
A Sunday Magazine item details an odd method used by a government survey crew to disperse wasps. Instead of burning nests with moss, a woodsman rubbed a machete under his arm and placed it by the nest, triggering the wasps to flee due to the odor of human perspiration. The piece connects animal aversion to human scent with a claim that this simple tactic is now widely used by engineers, noting it takes nerve to perform. The column also discusses excuses, citing H. Clay Trumbull on resisting excuses and endorsing responsibility. It cites Alberta’s coal area and production estimates, emphasizing the moral about excuses and accountability.
