MD3PAD 685-687

[Toby G Levy]

        Timothy Tox thinks the golem will protect him rather than
attack.  Dixon offers Tox the protection of travelling with his party
until they reach Newark. Mason says this is ok as long as he doesn't
bring the golem with him. Dixon argues that they could put the monster
to work. Mason thinks that Dixon just wants to use the creature as a
curiosity to gain entry to saloons he has not been able to get into.

        Mason wants to ask the golem about the spirit world.  They can
hear the golem approaching through the forest.

        They do give Tox a ride with their group, but they never
encounter the golem, which seems to have become invisible.  They leave
Tox by the side of the road, and he is immediately picked up by a
Conestoga wagon.

        Chapter 71 begins on page 687.  Mason and Dixon are back in
Philadelphia, hanging out in bars, knowing their job in America is
finished, except for some paperwork.

        They are working on adding their line to the map of America.
Dixon points out to Mason that there is a curious symbol on the Map of
the Boundaries: am eight pointed star topped with a fleur-de-lis.
