Erechtheus 15:38, 17 September 2006 (UTC) Junior Kilfong shoots the "drummer" Roy K. Sizemore, mistakenly, with a .30-30 Winchester. Matty Appleyard is pursued because he is carrying a cashiers' check for the $25,t52.32. Another name for the book was "Appalatian Echoes". It is a good description of the miners' lot in the late nineteenth thru early twentieth century, during the union struggles. It also is an accurate description of the beginnings of dynamite blasting in the East, in the 1880's. Mr. Sizemore is an unwitting victim, as, quite often, dynamite was smuggled on "common carries" during the '30ts to save freight.

He is a very beloved American actor, from Indiana, Pennsylvania, a small coal mining town near West Virginia. It is interesting to note that Arthur Kennedy and Strother Martin (a character actor) have "reversed" roles in this movie from "Cool Hand Luke", where Martin plays the sadistic jailer and Kennedy on a chain gang. Martin's infamous line: "What we have here is a failure to communicate", as he beats Paul Newman. Kennedy plays a very believeable, evil preacher-gone-bad (like another of Davis Grubb's characters, in "Night of the Hunter"). He is as evil as Hannibal Lektor, or Lee Van Cleef, or the great Jack Palance, himself.-Dan Smith 70.171.235.149 02:38, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
