"I shall carry it to a young lawyer whom I know well, and ask his advice about it. When the right time comes I shall bring it forward. I will ask him to keep it in his safe."
"Very well, Mark. I think that will be wise."

Luther Rockwell,
Broker and Banker.
"He is going to take you into partnership, 79," said A. D. T. 80.
"If he does I'll make you my office-boy," said Mark in a jocular tone. "I hope the old gentleman has quite recovered from his dynamite scare."
