“Yes, sir. I was to receive twenty-five dollars for my share.”
“I believe you know Chester Rand?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Do you know where he lives?”
“Yes, sir.”
“Will you ask him to call here to-morrow?”
“I will, sir; but he tells me he has a good place, and would not care to return.”
“I am aware of that. It is possible I may retain you——”
“Oh, sir, if you would!”
“On condition that you agree to serve me faithfully.”
