My friends, the elder said,

I am going away to-morrow, and I trust that your claims will turn out every bit as rich as ours has done.

Even if they don't turn out as rich, Frank said,

I am glad you think so, and very glad that you are likely to share my luck; still, I feel greatly indebted to you. It was a bargain, of course, but it was a bargain in which you were taking all the risk. There is, as you say, every probability of your claims turning out well; but there's no certainty in gold-mining, and at any rate we cannot go away with a fortune without feeling that, to some small extent at least, you will participate in it. Therefore I here hand you over each a bag with a hundred ounces of gold, so that, come what may, your time and labour here will not have been thrown away. You will not, I hope, pain me by refusing, he said, seeing that the men looked doubtfully at each other.

We owe it all to you, for when you threw in your lot with us we were desperate and starving.
