“You’ve got another visitor,” the doctor said.
“Who is it this time?” Jerry asked.
“A Mr. Stalwart. Says he knows you.”
“Let him in.”
Snakefoot/Stalwart showed an earnest and concerned face. “How are you?” he asked.
Jerry just nodded. “Aren’t you taking a big risk, coming here?”
“We’re loyal to our soldiers,” Snakefoot/Stalwart said. “We leave no wounded on the battlefield. Yes, the feds are trying hard, but so far they have no evidence to connect me. They’re focusing on the bomb makers right now. Of course, if they get the bomb makers, that could put them on our trail. -- But don’t worry about us. You worry about yourself. Get strong. Carry on with the fight. We lost this battle, but the war goes on.”
Jerry was impressed with Snakefoot/Stalwart’s courage and loyalty. He gave a thumbs up and shrugged.
