First Sentence: One night, during the recent troubles in the Pennsylvania coal regions, Judge Potts' brother, Thomas Potts, was round at a meeting of mine owners, and after the adjournment he stopped in at a tavern.
Last Sentence: Then he went to bed, and when in the morning Mrs. Potts informed him that some of those awful miners had broken into the house the night before, and left one of their hats with a lamp, which had spilled all over the carpet, Potts turned over in bed so that she couldn't see his face, and said that if the stern hand of the law wasn't laid upon those ruffians soon, nobody's life would be safe.
