The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Lone Star Ranger by Zane Grey: you give Ray to me?"
"Floyd; you talk like a spoiled boy. Give Ray to you! Why,
she's a woman, and I'm finding out that she's got a mind of her
own. I told you I was willing for her to marry you. I tried to
persuade her. But Ray hasn't any use for you now. She liked you
at first. But now she doesn't. So what can I do?"
"You can make her marry me," replied Lawson.
"Make that girl do what she doesn't want to? It couldn't be
done even if I tried. And I don't believe I'll try. I haven't
the highest opinion of you as a prospective son-in-law, Floyd.
But if Ray loved you I would consent. We'd all go away together
