The Man From Brodney’s

CHAPTER IX
15/19

He has the depositions of agents and dealers in Bombay, Aden, Suez and three or four European cities, all along that line.

He goes over the day's business at the bank as often as we do as agents for the executors.

He knows just how many rubies and sapphires were washed out yesterday, and how much they weigh.

It's our business, as your agents, to scrape up everything as far back as we can go to prove that the old chaps were mentally off their base when they drew up that agreement and will.

I think we've got a shade the best of it, even though the will looks good.
