The record — long form
The Squire is the thrown — the 'darts' that's the weapon's form, the 'unprovoked' that's the flight's cause. The 'wee girl' is the seen — the 'steps' that's the sitting's place, the 'photo' that's the proof's form. The 'Joe West' is the checked — the 'schoolteacher' that's the founder's trade, the '1961' that's the dream's year.
The '200 years' is the old — the 'farmhouse' that's the wing's form, the 'Scottish' that's the owner's accent. The 'thermal image' is the caught — the 'floating woman' that's the figure's form, the 'Hannah Thistle' that's the cat's name. The Squire is the kept — the 'Kilt Buster' that's the steak's size, the 'labyrinth' that's the rooms' form.
The file keeps the Squire: the thrown darts, the seen girl, the checked founder, and the kept restaurant.
Country Squire is the archive's North Carolina file — the steakhouse that plays darts alone.
Why this file matters
Country Squire is the archive's North Carolina file — the restaurant where the help never leaves.
A restaurant keeps its founder — the file's suggestion being that the Squire's hold is the residual: the 'darts' that's the game's ghost, the 'Joe West' that's the overseer's name, and the '72-ounce' that's the living's draw.
