                                          Well,  I  never  seen  but  one
                                          piece.  A dollar  bill  Papa
                                          had.  It was  paper,  but  he
                                          told  me  mostly  money's  round
                                          pieces  o.f  silver  and  copper.

                                          What'd  Papa  git with  his
                                          dollar?

                                                        TRAVIS
                                          Nothing.  It wasn't  no  good.

                                                        ARLISS
                                          But  you  just  said  you  could
                                          git  anything  with  it.

                                                   {.flustered)
                                          You  can,  but  Papa's  was
                                          Confederate  money!

                                                        ARLISS
                                          What's  Confederate  money?
