Captain Shelby finishes his story of the Philadelphia lawyer who
attempts to void the Devil's contract on his soul, ending with a joke
about billable hours.
Chapter 62 begins on page 608 with the crew reaching the
Conoloways, a settlement, on April 22nd. It snowed all night leaving
four inches on the ground. Dixon says he dreamt of a large city to the
west of their location. Mason says that he needs to get used to the
idea that the farther west they go, the farther they leave civilization
and enter regions of lawlessness. Dixon responds that he hears Mason
talk in his sleep, but always in another language. Dixon suggests that
they have Zhang listen while Mason sleeps to see if he can understand
it, but Mason dismisses the idea.
