	# Town Hall 118, Speaker "Jacob"	"I tried explaining the Friends' way, how even the "savages", as they called them, had the light of God in them."
	# Town Hall 119, Speaker "Jacob"	"How we were equally important in the presence of God's light."
	# Town Hall 120, Speaker "Jacob"	"That the people we share this Earth with were not our enemy."
	# Town Hall 121, Speaker "Jacob"	"They had no care for my explanations, they had no care for the needs or lives of others than themselves."
	# Town Hall 122, Speaker "Jacob"	"It made me wonder how Quakers past had convinced people; of the evils of slavery, of the importance of peace."
	# Town Hall 123, Speaker "Jacob"	"Building bonds instead of destroying one other."
	# Town Hall 124, Speaker "Jacob"	"I lost hope. I thought maybe... things had changed so much, perhaps this was the people's limit."
	# Town Hall 125, Speaker "Jacob"	"Tolerance of those who could get in their way was no longer an option."
	# Town Hall 126, Speaker "Jacob"	"...Or perhaps I was just a failure, unable to convince a single soul of giving a damn."
	# Town Hall 127	The old tortoise looked forlorn, brow furrowed, like he was reliving these moments so vividly that these were the same faces he wore.
	# Town Hall 128, Speaker "Jacob"	"Then along came Sheriff, oh, Sheriff!"
	# Town Hall 129, Speaker "Jacob"	"I was a little worried when Sheriff was first assigned to the town."
	# Town Hall 130, Speaker "Jacob"	"That I'd just have another person to fight with, someone with authority on the side of the miners."
	# Town Hall 131, Speaker "Jacob"	"Instead I found a kindred spirit, someone who actually listened to me, and agreed with me on many things."
	# Town Hall 132, Speaker "Jacob"	"Very quickly we became firm, firm friends."
	# Town Hall 133, Speaker "Jacob"	"Eventually, Sheriff got sick of the miners. Decided enough was enough, and shut down the town. Forced the miners to move elsewhere."
	# Town Hall 134	The entire time he'd been talking about Sheriff, his face was lively and lit up, his hands moving with his words.
	# Town Hall 135	It was a lot like how your pastor used to give sermons.
	# Town Hall 136, Speaker "Joseph"	"Surely there was resistance to a whole mining town being packed up like that?"
	# Town Hall 137, Speaker "Jacob"	"Of course. But Sheriff did what's right - that's the way Sheriff's soul is set."
	# Town Hall 138, Speaker "Jacob"	"I'd felt buried by the weight of the town's hate, their convictions like stone walls I could not scale."
	# Town Hall 139, Speaker "Jacob"	"I'll be grateful to God until the day I die that Sheriff came here. I was given so much hope when I'd lost it all."
	# Town Hall 140, Speaker "Joseph"	"And you've been here ever since?"
	# Town Hall 141	Jacob chuckled.
	# Town Hall 142, Speaker "Jacob"	"Yes, we have. Only a handful of us stayed after the miners left, and it was hard to know whether this town would still stand."
	# Town Hall 143, Speaker "Jacob"	"But we felt sure we could find more people who cared, as long as we worked together."
	# Town Hall 144, Speaker "Jacob"	"More people like us."
	# Town Hall 145	His words hung in the air, settling around you and Joseph as Jacob settled his gaze on you both.
	# Town Hall 146, Speaker "$Player"	"...So, those mines are still around?"
	# Town Hall 147, Speaker "Jacob"	"Hm?"
	# Town Hall 148, Speaker "$Player"	"A lot of mining towns die down 'cause of the gold dryin' up, but if the miners just left, I guess there's some still here."
