: There came a day when interests
! that could not coax him to hunt with
II the pack" tripped him up, and his
: overthrow was swift and certain. Even
those who were not concerned in the
: work Of his undoing scurried away
and left him to fight it out alone
alone, with the exception of the woman

1t Is glibly said in Wall street that
what this man is punished for, others
