She
was
an
innocent
little
thing
,
only
fifteen
,
no
guile
,
no
shrewdness
.
"
Oh
,
you
need
n't
get
me
anything
.
"
"
Need
n't
I
?
"
he
asked
,
squeezing
her
waist
and
kissing
her
mouth
again
.
It
was
fine
to
be
getting
on
this
way
in
the
world
and
having
such
a
good
time
.
The
following
October
,
having
passed
his
eighteenth
year
by
nearly
six
months
,
and
feeling
sure
that
he
would
never
want
anything
to
do
with
the
grain
and
commission
business
as
conducted
by
the
Waterman
Company
,
Cowperwood
decided
to
sever
his
relations
with
them
and
enter
the
employ
of
Tighe
&
Company
,
bankers
and
brokers
.
Cowperwood
's
meeting
with
Tighe
&
Company
had
come
about
in
the
ordinary
pursuance
of
his
duties
as
outside
man
for
Waterman
&
Company
.
From
the
first
Mr.
Tighe
took
a
keen
interest
in
this
subtle
young
emissary
.
"
How
's
business
with
you
people
?
"
he
would
ask
,
genially
;
or
,
"
Find
that
you
're
getting
many
I.O.U.
'
s
these
days
?
"
Because
of
the
unsettled
condition
of
the
country
,
the
over-inflation
of
securities
,
the
slavery
agitation
,
and
so
forth
,
there
were
prospects
of
hard
times
.
And
Tighe
--
he
could
not
have
told
you
why
--
was
convinced
that
this
young
man
was
worth
talking
to
in
regard
to
all
this
.
He
was
not
really
old
enough
to
know
,
and
yet
he
did
know
.
"
Oh
,
things
are
going
pretty
well
with
us
,
thank
you
,
Mr.
Tighe
,
"
Cowperwood
would
answer
.
"
I
tell
you
,
"
he
said
to
Cowperwood
one
morning
,
"
this
slavery
agitation
,
if
it
does
n't
stop
,
is
going
to
cause
trouble
.
"
