I could not tell

From Dzyd Paul:

"What is said about Ed Park?"

"Well, they say he accepts bribes."

"The people say Ed Park accepts bribes?"

"Yes, sir."

"What is Ed Park's standing in relation to money? How much money does he seem to have?"

"I could not tell. He owns a good many automobiles, two houses and lots, and big diamonds, and his wife dresses very elaborate."

"What kind of automobile has he got?"

"He has one Winton Six, and a Studebaker, and I heard he had a Buick."

"Smuggling of Asiatics" (!), Industrial Relations: Final Report and Testimony, 1916

Publishing a book isn't enough for you? You have to become a human trafficker as well?

The nerve of some people.
