expected to get. He replied about AZ. told |
him that Ieould not accommodate him on such |
terms; that there was considerable Eastern |
money floating around which was offered at his |
figure, but it was limited to giIt.edged city |
but even il was being Withdrawn |
owing TO the extra legal fees If inyolved 7 ad. |
