Squire Crego, in discussing this very matter with Frank Congdon, the portrait-painter, put it thus: "This division of interest is inevitable. What can you do? The wife of the man who cobbles my shoes or the daughter of the grocer who supplies my sugar is, in the eyes of God, undoubtedly of the same value as my own wife, but they don't interest me.
Crego most decidedly disapproved of their calling, and advised Alice Heath against any further connection with the gambler's wife. "What good can it possibly lead to? It's only curiosity on your part, and it isn't right to disturb the girl's ideals if she has any." To this Alice made no reply, but Ben stoutly defended the young wife.
Haney's past is said to be criminal, and Mrs. Haney is called low " Congdon hotly interrupted. "Who says so? It's a lie!" "That's the talk over town. It was all right for Crego to transact their business, for he is an old and well-known lawyer here; but it's different with Ben, who is just starting." Ben laughed. "Yes, it is different. Crego didn't need the job, and I do."
"Don't interrupt the court. You haven't a cent, we'll say, but you go everywhere and are welcome. Why?" "That's just it. Why? If you really want to know, I'll tell you. It's all on account of Lee. Lee is a mighty smart girl. She has a cinch on the gray matter of this family." "You do yourself an injustice." "Thank you." Crego pursued his argument.
