Trivia:

+ Rush was silently reading from 3rd Lieutenant Clinton Stanley Among the Counterfeiting Left-Handed Natives of the Orange Sea or How Luck and Honesty Won Fame and Fortune. In it, 3rd Lieutenant Stanley faced death by drowning but escaped through a secret tunnel. Later, he is bound and gagged and all he can do is flex his muscles. He gets Lady Margaret to put a bullet on his arm. He flexes his muscle and the bullet shoots across the river and kills a counterfeiting, left-handed native of the Orange Sea.

+ One of Vic's nicknames for Rush in this episode is most-improbable -- "dove hiney": {{HEAR}}

+ Things we know that Sade bought: shoelaces for a dime, hairpins, Spool of white thread #50 for 5 cents, 15 cents worth of candy (for Ruthie) and 12 and half cents for Mis' Cryder's church charity and $1 worth of washrags.

+ Mis' Wilton is mentioned for the first time. Sade saw her in the underwear department of Yamilton's and stopped to talk to her.

+ Rush asks Vic what the word, "grandiloquent" means: {{{HEAR}}}
