CHAPTER XX
18/25

When they came out, Hall was a different man.

Mr.Graham then took him to his store and set him to work to arrange and file a number of letters and papers, which occupied him for several hours.

He saw that he had a good dinner and at five o'clock gave him a couple of dollars for his day's work, aid after many kind words of advice and assurance told him to come back in the morning, and he would find something else for him to do.

"Not back to Grubb's court," was answered by Mr.Paulding.
