"Don't I know it?" Keogh would answer. "Of course you've forgotten her. Proper thing to do. Wasn't quite 0. K. of her to listen to the knocks that--er--Dink Pawson kept giving you." "Pink Dawson!"a word of contempt would be in Johnny's tones"Poor white trash! That's what he was. Had five hundred acres of farming land, though; and that counted. Maybe I'll have a chance to get back at him some day.
What does 'and that counetd' mean in this context? 'And that mattered' is one option but I'll be grateful if anybode can explain for me in more than three words what Johnny really mean with this words. Though Pink Davson had five hundred acres of farming land he is... what?
Thanks
