Skinyer left him without further questioning, the rector's brain being evidently unfit for the subject of corporation law. On the other hand he got satisfaction from the Rev. Dr. Dumfarthing at once. "The church of St. Osoph," said the minister, "is a perpetual trust, holding property as such under a general law of the state and able as such to be made the object of suit or distraint.
"From above." said the rector reverently. "Precisely," said Mr. Skinyer, "no doubt, but I mean its authority in the exact sense of the term." "It was enjoined on St. Peter," began the rector, but Mr. Skinyer interrupted him.
Whereupon Tomlinson explained as best he could, and Skinyer, working with great rapidity, indicated that the benefaction was to include a Demolition Fund for the removal of buildings, a Retirement Fund for the removal of professors, an Apparatus Fund for the destruction of apparatus, and a General Sinking Fund for the obliteration of anything not otherwise mentioned.
For when all the affairs of the Erie Auriferous Consolidated were presently calculated up by the labours of Skinyer and Beatem and the legal representatives of the Orphans and the Idiots and the Deaf-mutes they resolved themselves into the most beautiful and complete cipher conceivable.
"Well, then," said Mr. Skinyer, who was in the chair, with a pile of documents in front of him, "I think that our general basis of financial union may be viewed as settled." A murmur of assent went round the meeting. "The terms are set forth in the memorandum before us, which you have already signed. Only one other point a minor one remains to be considered.
Fyshe thoughtfully, "it's the same thing as what we called 'permissible policy' on the part of directors in the Tin Pot Combination." "Exactly," assented Mr. Skinyer, "and it means that for the merger we need nothing I state it very frankly except general consent." The preliminary stages of the making of the merger followed along familiar business lines. The trustees of St.
Newberry. "Skinyer says he can settle it," answered Mr. Furlong. About a week after the above conversation the united trustees of St. Asaph's and St. Osoph's were gathered about a huge egg-shaped table in the board room of the Mausoleum Club.
"I suppose," said the rector thoughtfully, "one would define it as an indivisible spiritual unit manifesting itself on earth." "Quite so," interrupted Mr. Skinyer, "but I don't mean what it is in the religious sense: I mean, in the real sense." "I fail to understand," said Mr. Furlong. "Let me put it very clearly," said the lawyer. "Where does it get its authority?"
And Skinyer, the senior partner, no sooner heard what Tomlinson wanted than he dashed across the outer office to his partner's room with his hyena face all excitement as he said: "Beatem, Beatem, come over to my room. This man is absolutely the biggest thing in America. For sheer calmness and nerve I never heard of anything to approach him. What do you think he wants to do?" "What?" said Beatem.
I speak with some assurance as I had occasion to enquire into the matter at the time when I was looking for guidance in regard to the call I had received to come here." "It's a quite simple matter," Mr. Skinyer presently reported to Mr. Fyshe. "One of the churches is a perpetual trust, the other practically a state corporation.
