Three miles down the road is Robin Van Norman's nearest neighbor, Jim Wright. From his house Wright can gaze up at a rugged outcropping where Freeport has found a modest ore body. If the site is mined, Wright worries, what will happen to a gurgling, gushing spring that forms the headwaters of Niagara Creek, which in turn fills a large reservoir Wright uses to irrigate a wide green hay meadow...
