Of capital invested in the business.
WIDow-In answer we would say
that no doubt you have been wronged
by the fraudulent institution, but We
connot comply with your request. 1t
would be cruel to kick dead man, or
dead institution. A dead Indian can't
hurt you, but he has an unsayory rep
utation, and stinks, and should be bu-
ried out of sight as soon as possible. 1t
would be cruelty to the public to place
him on a pedestal while his friends
would try to prove that he did not stink.
