Phin laughed, "I 'spose you're right. The man has done a number of mind numbing things since I've been in Kalispell. And we may never really know what he was thinking, but beating Buller out of it? That could have been enough." Rationalizing anything that Elias Steelgrave did would just be crazy making. "The fact that he has yet to do something about this hospital has me a bit worried now about when he will."

"That worries me as well, he can be unpredictable, as he demonstrated with the Milligan sale," Leah said. "He may do nothing at all. I'm sure he realizes the need for the hospital, given that he had a heart attack recently." Leah admitted, "Or, he could have his men try to burn it to the ground, your guess is as good as mine. But I want to get it finished and opened for the people that need it!"

"The hard part might be getting the chance to interview the elusive Mister Steelgrave." Phin said, "Going out to the Everegreen might not be the healthiest tack to take. But then catching him in town is nigh onto impossible, he's here so seldom."

"I don't think he would do anything to harm you. He would know that we here in town would know that you had gone out there. Besides, you want an interview with him, and he likes to be the center of attention, and an interview in the paper would go to a lot of people." Leah told him, "And, it is an opportunity for him to make himself look good to all of your readers. What do you think, Mason? I mean, I believe that it would be safe enough."
