Perjury Is Exposed

Marlowe showed an amazing memory
for figures and dates and a good buSi,
ness head, but credit had been so easy
for him to get from the brewery that
he had been as careless and loo'e in
his dealing with Bartlett as others had
been.

that he was being robbed of the cash
discounts due him on his purchases
from the brewery, he threatened to ex.
pose Bartlett. The frightened manager
pleaded for grace and got it on cont.
ton that Bartlett finance some acco Z
notation by which Marlowe could be
quit of his obligation.
There followed an amazing deal
Bartlett took him to the Bank of Homo
lulu, from which he was able to borrow
$4,000, on the strength of a note EN-
iorsvd by Bartlett and w. c. Parke
treasurer Of the brewery.
