both sets of letters appear equally distant.

A few days ago q man came to this same
attorney tor advice as to whether he could
be forced to submit to the eXactions OF one
OF these money sharks. from whom he had
borrowed S65. Upon receipt of the money
he had given his notes for S.O4.5O. psy able
in two months with interest. He gave
three notes, one for SIS and two for 81 20
each. He objected TO paying $3.50 inter
est for the use OF $50 for two months, but
the money lender threatened to foreclose
the mortgage and to take the mans house
hold goods. AS soon as he found On attor-
ney had been consulted he graoiously 60
cepted S65 as payment in full or the three
notes and surrendered the mortgage.
Another case related by this attorney
was that of woman who borrowed S25
from a lender. and executed chattel
mortgage upon her household goods as
security. Each month she paid $40 or SIS
upon the note, but she received no receipt
for the amounts thus paid the shark
simply saying that he would credit her
upon the books with the amount. In the
course of few months she had paid S15
she was indebted TO him for $50. She con-
suited an attorney, and the shark: as
usual, very promptly came TO time and set
tied without any additional payments. In
all these cases the names of the lenders
were withheld by the attorney because
they came to him In confidence.

lender doubles the amount of the indebted
