Ch. IV Pg. 246-262 Summary

John Grady gets to the White Lake and kicks the window in on Eduardo's car. He blows the horn, and Eduardo comes out. John Grady tells him "I come to kill you."

He wraps his raincoat around his right arm as a kind of shield and takes his hunting knife in his left hand. He makes the first swipe, but the pimp dodges it. They go back and forth, with John Grady batting away the first few swipes with the rain slicker on his arm. John Grady gets a couple of slices on the pimp's arms, but eventually Eduardo puts a deep gash in the younger man's leg, then two more. Eduardo tells him he is marking him with an "E."

They grapple and John Grady slices the pimp across the stomach, but takes a cut himself...
