Desiring time to collect his thoughts, he
said:
"You're an impudent rascal"
Preble laughed.
"We're not children" he said. "We're
business men. Do you want TO pay that
note, or do you want it to go TO protest?"
Lawrence put the wrong end OF a fresh
cigar into his mouth and tried to light
the other. Naturally there was no
draught.
He laughed nervously. Then, check
ing himself suddenly, he exclaimed:
SPY the Lord Harry, like your way OF
going at a thing. You don't waste much
time, I'll swear. Show me your creden-

Preble folded his contract backward
and showed Lawrence Hersch's name on

to the same thing, but Lawrence was not
IN a mood to be too particular.
Then there was a fencing match, in

Albert Mcneil had committed suicide.
He had confided in his partner partly
through friendship, but chiefly, as he
had confessed, because he had feared that
Lawrence would suspect, and it was bet
ter he should be under a pledge. The
nature of that pledge, Lawrence did not
disclose, but Preble noticed that he shud-
dered when the conversation drifted near

The disclosure had been made at the
time when the insurance agent had sup
posed ii to have occurred. Mcneil had
pointed out that his affairs had reached
the brink of rum; that he was utterly
worn out; that he had neither the
strength to begin the struggle anew nor
the heart to drag his wife down to the
dull misery of squalor.
"He loved the woman" said Lawrence,
"and by the eternal heavens, she's
worth il.
"Let us stick to business" rejoined
Preble.
Thus admonished, Lawrence related the
of the living.
