" Father Norris: No, no, it’s no man of the district. As you say, we know them, and it is little that they can do. But you’ve heard of Pinkerton’s?
McMurdo: I’ve read of some folk of that name.
Father Norris: Well, you can take it from me you’ve no show when they are on your trail. It’s not a take-it-ormiss-it government concern. It’s a dead earnest business proposition that’s out for results and keeps out till by hook or crook it gets them. If a Pinkerton man is deep in this business, we are all destroyed.

The Pinkerton National Detective Agency, commonly known as the Pinkerton Agency, was a private detective and security guard company founded in the United States in 1850 by Allan Pinkerton. The agency quickly gained a reputation for its investigative skills and was hired by individuals, businesses, and government agencies to solve crimes, collect evidence, and provide security services.

The Pinkerton Agency played a significant role in shaping the history of law enforcement in the United States. They were involved in a number of high-profile cases, including tracking down and apprehending criminals such as Jesse James and Butch Cassidy. The agency also provided security for important figures such as President Abraham Lincoln and helped to combat organized crime during the Prohibition era.
