[Swiftwater Gazette] Crap and Trade (TAX)

[Eric Sandberg]

Brad,

I knew there was a reason why I needed to keep that 30 acres of mostly woods
that people have been trying to convince me to sell for the last many years.
It's becoming obvious now, I'm probably gonna need those woods to keep warm
in the near future.

I suppose I'll have to set out a guard now to keep everyone else from
stealing my resource.
