I know that Post wrote about Abner but I don't understand about the sword's endless rapacity.

bibblebub

I guess it must be a reference to "He that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword" which Uncle Abner says a few times in this http://www.worlds-best-detective-crime-and-murder-mystery-books.com/abnerdoomdorf.html
