From “The Hammonds of Ore City: Deconstructing a Dynasty” by Cyril Linkus, Stanford University Press – Rod Hammond, upright citizen, rich and powerful mine owner ran the Hammond’s Lightside operations, but it was Jeff Hammond, broken as he was, who was the real moneymaker in the family. Rod Hammond might have been the King of Lightside, but Jeff Hammond was the Duke of Rogue’s Deep.
