...rattlesnake to death with a horsewhip, flaying a half-breed Indian, marrying a libertine (Monroe Owsley) and knocking him unconscious, blacking the eye of her husband's mistress (Thelma Todd), practicing prostitution, boxing the ears of her second fiancé (Anthony Jewitt) and punching a horse in the stomach. The only explanation for her behavior lies in the fact that she is not, as she supposes, the daughter of a Texas railroad millionaire (Willard Robertson) but the bastard offspring of his wife (Estelle Taylor) and a yodeling Indian chief named Ronasa...

After so much pretentious pastryware, cunningly but cheaply contrived by city haif-breeds, an honest book like Greenhaul, is as good as good bread.

Love and money were Evangeline Adams's chief astrological problems; love chiefly before January 1930, money after January...
Peptic ulcers occur in the stomach, duodenum and jejunum. Those parts of the anatomy are to the surgeon what a washbowl, water trap and waste pipe are to a master plumber. The surgeon can remove parts of the stomach, duodenum and jejunum. He can remove any one of them entirely if necessary. In extremity he can take all three out and keep the patient alive for a time by fluids through rectum or veins. But the surgeon's ordinary plumbing for peptic ulcer is to cut out the diseased section of stomach, or diseased length of duodenum or jejunum...
