However conspicuous the outward achievement, he, he himself, Magnus Derrick, had failed, miserably and irredeemably. Petty, material complications intruded, sordid considerations. Even if Genslinger was to be paid, where was the money to come from?

The time will come when the State will be proud of him." As Harran turned the team into the driveway that led up to Annixter's house, Magnus remarked: "Harran, isn't that young Annixter himself on the porch?" Harran nodded and remarked: "By the way, Governor, I wouldn't seem too cordial in your invitation to Annixter.

And, of course, once signing the lease, they acknowledged the Railroad's title. But the road would not lease to Magnus. S. Behrman takes over Los Muertos in a few weeks now." "No doubt, the road made over their title in the property to him," observed Cedarquist, "as a reward of his services." "No doubt," murmured Presley wearily. He rose to go.

Or, if anybody is inclined to such matters let him go to Dahlmann, for the amplest information and such minuteness of detail as might almost enable him to be an Advocate, with Silk Gown, in any Court depending on these Gray-geese. Magnus did not live long.

Other ranchers, men whom Annixter had never seen, appeared in the room, wheat growers from places as far distant as Goshen and Pixley; young men and old, proprietors of veritable principalities, hundreds of thousands of acres of wheat lands, a dozen of them, a score of them; men who were strangers to each other, but who made it a point to shake hands with Magnus Derrick, the "prominent man" of the valley.

He knew that as he could not at once pay back these sums, he was bound to make it up in some other way. The debts would be left the same. But that would remain with Providence. Then came Harry's letter, and there was a deep consultation. It was known to have come from Harry by the Buntingford post-mark.
