"Rats'll always leave a sinkin' ship," he said, "and if Zoeth and me was goin' under Rat Young would be the first to quit."
"Well, lookyhere, Mawruss," Abe announced jumping to his feet, "I'm going right away and fill out one of them guarantees what Henry D. Feldman fixes up for us, and also I will write out a note at six months for twenty-one hundred dollars and indorse it with the firm's name.

He had, he said, found the proprietor's drawer locked, and, not having a stamp about him, had dropped the document into the mail-box with the firm's letters, presuming that the clerks would affix the tax the Government imposed.

Enwright turned on him, "unless you're absolutely going to ignore the market on the other side of the Square. Whinburn's façade is an outrage an outrage. Give me a cigarette.

George chucked the bank he was clerking in- -to go on his own with what there was to share after the old chap.
Maurice Van Nant visited him unexpectedly, and withdrew from his keeping a sealed packet which had been in the firm's custody for eight years. If you want to know why he withdrew it Dollops!" "Right you are, guv'ner." "Give me the sledge-hammer. Thanks! Now, Mr. Narkom, look!"
Florence Hallman therefore, having taken upon herself the leadership in the contest fight, must do one of two things if she would have victory to salve the hurt to her self-esteem and to vindicate the firm's policy in the eyes of the settlers. She must produce evidence of the collusion of the Flying U outfit with the Happy Family, in the taking of the claims.
Now supposing Farrell had been playing with the firm's money unknown to his partners, or perchance unknown only to one of them yourself.
