Near Warrenton, the horn rang clear in the crisp dawn to summon pink-coated hunters. In the sandy jack-pine country near the North Carolina line, warehouses bulged with the Bright Tobacco that enriched Virginia by $84 million last year.

...three winds forward from the brute's purchase of the heroine from her mother for a few thousand lire. With his frightened purchase he takes to the road on a tumble-down trailer built onto a motorcycle, and is soon teaching the girl a few simple tricks--blowing a horn or dancing a few steps--with which to decorate his act.
