You see, 'Bije always steered pretty close to the edge of the channel.

He had ideas about honesty and fair dealin' in business that didn't jibe with mine.

We split on just that, as I told you, Mr.Graves, when you and I fust met.
He got some South Denboro folks to invest money along with him; sort of savin's account, they figgered it; but I found out he was usin' it to speculate with.

So that's why we had our row.

I took pains to see that the money was paid back, but he and I never spoke afterwards.
