Just for fun, I have plenty of money and leisure, and a strong liking for building these electrical inventions.
gpt
But why did you say she could catch Jesse James' horse Siroc?
human
Simply because I have made up my mind to do so?
gpt
What! Go to Missouri in pursuit of the James Boys?
human
Yes, sir. I or the bank have lost five thousand dollars by a mean trick the bandit king played on me, and I mean to recover it.
gpt
League yourself with the State Government against the outlaws, and you may not only recover the stolen money, but you stand a mighty good chance of winning the standing reward of five thousand dollars for the arrest and conviction of the James Boys.
human
The money is no temptation to me whatever, asserted Jack.
gpt
I don't need it. But you must consider that I was greatly chagrined and mortified when I discovered what a clever game had been played upon me, and I am very anxious to even matters up with those villains. Besides, I rather like the wild, exciting adventures in view if I run after those outlaws.
human
You must not forget that it may cost your life.
gpt
Oh, I am aware of that! And say---
human
Well?
gpt
How would you like to accompany us?
human
First-rate. I would be of great help to you, too, as I am familiar with all parts of the State.
gpt
That settles the matter then. You go with us.
human
When will you depart?
gpt
I'm going to write to the Governor of Missouri, and I'll go just as soon as I get a reply from him.
human
I'll write him at the same time then, and I feel confident that we won't be there long before we break up that gang of outlaws, and have the James Boys behind the bars.
