You've got to pay me and what's more, I'm going to see to it that you do! Business is business, my boy." "Well, I'll pay you all the cash I can and give you my note for the remainder." "Your note!" Cappy jeered. "Your note! What do I want with your note! Is it hockable at any bank? Huh! Answer me that." "You needn't insult me!" Matt growled wrathfully. "Bah!" Cappy sneered.
