"I'm looking for some one who may be in town. Let's call him an old friend. 'Course, he may not be here, maybe his sister, cousin , or uncle. Name's "Gilhoulley". No? Well if you see him, or any relatives, tell them that Hunter Trace from Louisiana came calling."

Hunter Trace is a handsome man who looks the part of a rugged frontier game hunter, but his manners and speech indicate that at one time he had money, power, and social standing. He makes no secret that a radical change occurred in his past pulling him away from luxury and gentility, nor does he pretend that it has nothing to do with the Gilhoulley Family he tracks across the continent.

Getting him to say exactly what that event was will prove to be difficult, though.
