soon after that ROsCnstOck was given an
important position with his father-in-

again plunged deeper than ever into DIS
sipation.
Then one day came the refusal OF one
of the firms largest customers to pay 4
hill OF over $4,000. which II claimed. ac-
cording 10 Mr.. Wilson. had been paid To
fronJed with The evidence ROsenstock de-
MED that he had received the money
