“Oh no, not so much as that. He’s pretty well fixed.”
“Hasn’t he got a father livin’?”
“No, it’s his father that left the money.”
“How did you happen to get in with him?”
“Oh, we met promiscuous. He took a sort of fancy to me, and that’s the way of it.”
“Do you expect to keep him with you?”
“He talks of goin’ back to Montana with me. I’ll be sort of guardian to him.”
“You’re in luck, Jeff.”
“Yes, I’m in luck to have pleasant company. Maybe we’ll join together and buy a mine.”
“Would you mind introducin’ him?”
