    		Actually, its the gravemaker. The character corrected the answer 'gallowsmaker'--although he liked the wit in it. He told his fellow, "When you are asked this question next, say 'a gravemaker.' The houses he makes last till doomsday."

    I suppose that's in the site somewhere, so I'll look.
