How
much
money
have
you
?
"
"
Oh
,
twenty
thousand
,
all
told
.
If
I
suspend
,
though
,
I
'll
have
to
have
a
little
ready
cash
.
"
"
I
have
eight
or
ten
thousand
,
or
will
have
by
night
,
I
hope
.
"
He
was
thinking
of
some
one
who
would
give
him
a
second
mortgage
on
his
house
.
Cowperwood
looked
quietly
at
him
.
There
was
nothing
more
to
be
said
to
his
father
.
"
I
'm
going
to
make
one
more
appeal
to
Stener
after
you
leave
here
,
"
be
said
.
"
I
'm
going
over
there
with
Harper
Steger
when
he
comes
.
If
he
wo
n't
change
I
'll
send
out
notice
to
my
creditors
,
and
notify
the
secretary
of
the
exchange
.
I
want
you
to
keep
a
stiff
upper
lip
,
whatever
happens
.
I
know
you
will
,
though
.
I
'm
going
into
the
thing
head
down
.
If
Stener
had
any
sense
--
"
He
paused
.
"
But
what
's
the
use
talking
about
a
damn
fool
?
"
He
turned
to
the
window
,
thinking
of
how
easy
it
would
have
been
,
if
Aileen
and
he
had
not
been
exposed
by
this
anonymous
note
,
to
have
arranged
all
with
Butler
Rather
than
injure
the
party
,
Butler
,
in
extremis
,
would
have
assisted
him
.
Now
...
!
His
father
got
up
to
go
.
He
was
as
stiff
with
despair
as
though
he
were
suffering
from
cold
.
"
Well
,
"
he
said
,
wearily
.
Cowperwood
suffered
intensely
for
him
.
What
a
shame
!
His
father
!
He
felt
a
great
surge
of
sorrow
sweep
over
him
but
a
moment
later
mastered
it
,
and
settled
to
his
quick
,
defiant
thinking
.
As
the
old
man
went
out
,
Harper
Steger
was
brought
in
.
They
shook
hands
,
and
at
once
started
for
Stener
's
office
.
But
Stener
had
sunk
in
on
himself
like
an
empty
gas-bag
,
and
no
efforts
were
sufficient
to
inflate
him
.
They
went
out
,
finally
,
defeated
.
