“Yes. I’m going to spend $1,000 with you.”
“Four ain’t enough?”
“No, I’m going to take two more, if I can get them. You say you expect to have these Welcome sisters?”
“Sure, I’ll have them.”
“Well, you told me you didn’t want to run the risk of keeping them around Chicago. I’ll take them off your hands.”
“You expect to get them for $200?”
“Certainly. You don’t know yet that you can deliver. Has the one you married come back?”
“Oh, I’ll deliver.”
“I’m not as sure of that as you are, but I’m willing to speculate on it. I’ll make you this proposition. I’ll write you a check for $1,000 and take my chance on you delivering the six girls I name.”
“No checks go,” said Druce.
