    Dennehy knew it. After a while Burke looked John's shoulder to see if he was reading the truth. When John saw him he closed the paper. Peter Hellihan told him read on. John told Peter that he couldn't because Burke was putting his foul breath under his nose.
    Peter got up and hit Burke a punch of his fist and then told John to read on.
