The valley people saw him come and go As one apart that they would never know, Dawns in his silence and in his eyes A sense of evening stars in twilight skies!

signed to him for sale, the second
commission being charged when the
merchandise was consigned to an
other commission merchant for sale.
In accounting to the producer the
commission merchant would include
as a charge the commission or
brokerage charged by the second
handler of the products.
In the absence of the written
consent of the producer Kenny

able amount of one commission
