lands; and Of course us his assignee it
was incumbent upon me to fulfill
Henderson's contract with Cardigan,

well, this morning young Cardigan
came to my office, reminded me that
the contract would expire by limita-
tion next year and asked me to renew
it, and at the same freight-rate. l
offered to renew the contract but at
higher freight-rate, and explained to
him that could not possibly continue
to haul his logs at loss. Well, right
away he flew in q rage and called
me robber; whereupon l Informed
him that since he thought me robber,
perhaps we had better not attempt to
have any business dealings with each
other-that 1 really didn't want his
contract at any price, having scarcely
sufficient rolling stock to handle my
own logs. That made him calm down,

again and grew snarly and abusive

Rondeau came to me with Cardigan's

worry over It? And why continue to
discuss an unpleasant topic, my dear?"
Her uncle took her gently by the
