For he remembered that high, thin voice, and his promise. And the harness business was slithering downhill with dreadful rapidity, as the automobile business began its amazing climb. Jo tried to stop it. But he was not that kind of businessman. It never occurred to him to jump out of the down-going vehicle and catch the up-going one.

It will not be at all strange to ask her alone; there is always the excuse of not liking to take a businessman away from his work in the middle of the day." "That would be five; we ought to make it up to six. I suppose it would not do to ask this architect-fellow or Mr Sharnall."
"I doubt it," said Mr. Fyshe. "In fact, Newberry, to speak very frankly, I begin to ask myself, Is Furlong the man for the post?" "Oh, surely," said Mr. Newberry in protest. "Personally a charming fellow," went on Mr. Fyshe; "but is he, all said and done, quite the man to conduct a church? In the first place, he is not a businessman." "No," said Mr. Newberry reluctantly, "that I admit."
