Monty, my dear boy, by increasing
your deposits in our bank said the
colonel slowly and as if dreading the
fate Of the suggestion.
'.You mean, sir, that can save the
bank by drawing my money from 9th
er banks and putting it here?' asked
Monty slowly. He was thinking hard
er and faster than he had ever thought
in his life. Could he afford to risk the
loss of his entire fortune on the fate
Of this bank? What woTld Swearen-
gen Jones say if he deliberately de-
posted a vast amount of money in a
tottering institution like the Bank of
Manhattan Island? 1t would be the
maddest folly on his part if the bank
went down. There could be no miti-
eating circumstances in the eyes of Ell
ther Jones or the world if he swamped
all of his money in this crisis.
II beg of you. Monty, help u.s. The
coloners pride was gone. "It means
disgrace if we close our doors even
for an hour; it means stain that only
years can remove. You can restore
confidence by dozen strokes Of your
pen, and you can save u.s.
He was Barbara's father. The proud
old man was before him as suppl
ant, no longer the cold man Of the
world. Back to Brewsters mind came
the thought of his quarrel with Bar
bara and Of her heartlessnesS. A
scratch Of the pen one way. or the 9th
er could change the life Of Barbara
Drew. The two bankers stood by,
scarcely breathing. From outside came
the shuttle Of many feet and the muf-
fed roll Of voices. Again the door to
the private Office opened and a clerk
excitedly motoned for Mr.. Moore to
hurry to the front Of the bank. Moore
paused irresolutely, his eyes on Brew,
ster's face. The young man knew the
time had come when he must help or
deny them.
Like a fash the situation was made
clear to him, and his duty was plain.
He remembered that the Bank Of Man
haitian Island held Sery dollar that
Mrs. Gray and Peggy possessed. Their
meager fortune had been intrusted to
the care Of Prentiss Drew and his as
sociates, and it was in danger.
81 will do all can, colonel" said
Monty, "but upon one condition"
.sThat is?'
Barbara must never know Of this. y
The colonel's gasp Of astonishment
was cut short as Monty continued,
promise that she shall never know"
..I don't understand, but if it is your
wish promise"
Inside Of half an hours time several
hundred thousand came to the relief
Of the struggling bank, and the man
who had come to watch the run with
curious eyes turned out to be its saw
ior. His money won the day for the
Bank Of Manhattan Island. When the
happy president and directors offered
to pay him an astonishingly high rate
Of interest for the use Of the money
he proudly declined.
The next day Miss Drew issued in
vitations for cotillon. Mr.. Mont
gomery Brewster was not asked to at
tend.
