Summary

The author concludes that Ms. Sandstrom should pay for the damage on the farm, because it resulted from her actions and she could have expected that result.

Missing Connection

The conclusion is an assignment of responsibility (payment), but we don’t know anything about what determines that responsibility. Why should Ms. Sandstrom have to pay? For the premises to lead to the conclusion, we need to know that if your actions lead to damage that you could’ve foreseen, then you must pay for that damage.
