Well
,
I
'll
take
your
flour
.
I
need
it
.
Bill
it
to
me
.
"
Cowperwood
hurried
out
.
He
went
direct
to
a
firm
of
brokers
in
Walnut
Street
,
with
whom
his
firm
dealt
,
and
had
them
bid
in
the
grain
he
needed
at
prevailing
rates
.
Then
he
returned
to
the
office
.
"
Well
,
"
said
Henry
Waterman
,
when
he
reported
,
"
you
did
that
quick
.
Sold
old
Genderman
two
hundred
barrels
direct
,
did
you
?
That
's
doing
pretty
well
.
He
is
n't
on
our
books
,
is
he
?
"
"
No
,
sir
.
"
"
I
thought
not
.
Well
,
if
you
can
do
that
sort
of
work
on
the
street
you
wo
n't
be
on
the
books
long
.
"
Thereafter
,
in
the
course
of
time
,
Frank
became
a
familiar
figure
in
the
commission
district
and
on
'
change
(
the
Produce
Exchange
)
,
striking
balances
for
his
employer
,
picking
up
odd
lots
of
things
they
needed
,
soliciting
new
customers
,
breaking
gluts
by
disposing
of
odd
lots
in
unexpected
quarters
.
Indeed
the
Watermans
were
astonished
at
his
facility
in
this
respect
.
He
had
an
uncanny
faculty
for
getting
appreciative
hearings
,
making
friends
,
being
introduced
into
new
realms
.
New
life
began
to
flow
through
the
old
channels
of
the
Waterman
company
.
Their
customers
were
better
satisfied
.
George
was
for
sending
him
out
into
the
rural
districts
to
drum
up
trade
,
and
this
was
eventually
done
.
Near
Christmas-time
Henry
said
to
George
:
"
We
'll
have
to
make
Cowperwood
a
liberal
present
.
He
has
n't
any
salary
.
How
would
five
hundred
dollars
do
?
"
"
That
's
pretty
much
,
seeing
the
way
times
are
,
but
I
guess
he
's
worth
it
.
He
's
certainly
done
everything
we
've
expected
,
and
more
.
He
's
cut
out
for
this
business
.
"
"
What
does
he
say
about
it
?
Do
you
ever
hear
him
say
whether
he
's
satisfied
?
"
"
Oh
,
he
likes
it
pretty
much
,
I
guess
.
You
see
him
as
much
as
I
do
.
"
