Failed! What the devil do you mean, John?" "I mean just what I say! Everything has gone to bally-hack in the city. Here's a letter I have just received from Harding he's on the inside, and knows. He thinks there's some crooked business about it; they have been loaning money on all sorts of brick-bats, he says, and the end has come, or will to-morrow. He wanted to post me in time."
Would you be willing to send Sorensen and others with drawings of everything necessary, loaning them to British Government so that parts can be manufactured over here and assembled in Government factories under Sorensen's guidance?
"It's no for mysell, sir; but it threatens an awfu' night; and Sir Arthur, and Miss Wardour, poor thing" "Why, man, they must have met the carriage at the head of the loaning, or thereabouts; they must be home long ago." "Na, sir; they didna gang the road by the turnpike to meet the carriage, they gaed by the sands." The word operated like electricity on Oldbuck.
Up and down he paced, with his glass under his arm, now and then stopping and taking an anxious look at the chase, again to continue his walk, or else he would stand loaning against the bulwarks for a length of time together, without moving, unconscious of its lapse; his thoughts evidently fixed on the vessel ahead, and penetrating, in fancy, her interior.
Why was it, do you suppose, that Mr. Cowperwood grew so fast in wealth and Mr. Stener so slowly? They were partners in crime. Mr. Stener was loaning Mr. Cowperwood vast sums of the city's money at two per cent. when call-rates for money in Third Street were sometimes as high as sixteen and seventeen per cent.

Tom laughed, and Tom, Sr., said: "I'll go over and see him this evening. I wonder where he has been? I haven't seen him but once since he came home." "Guess Williams scared him off," suggested Tom. Rita tried in vain to think of some plan whereby she might warn Dic against loaning the money, or prevent her father from asking it. After supper Tom went to town while his father went up to see Dic.
For a few years he remained in New York, loaning his capital, for which he always found ready customers, but unfortunately they were not all as ready to pay as to borrow.

They were merely left with him for convenience' sake, as he was my agent in loaning the money." "Then he can't make way with them, honestly." Monroe seemed hurt by the implied suspicion, but did not reply, thinking it best, if possible, to change the subject of conversation. Mr.

Turner and I had rooms at Mrs. Ross's, and took our meals at restaurants down-town, mostly at a Frenchman's named Martin, on the southwest corner of Montgomery and California Streets.
Was that any part of the reason, he wondered to-day, why at the end of thirty years of unflinching toil and honesty, he found himself with a vast budget of experience in the ruinous loaning of money, with a mortgage on the farm of a friend, and a mortgage on his own farm likely to be foreclosed? Perhaps it might have been better to stay in Henry County. He had paid for his farm at last.
