You
do
n't
regret
leaving
that
,
do
you
,
Frank
?
"
asked
Steger
,
curiously
.
"
I
do
not
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
.
"
It
was
n't
that
I
was
thinking
of
.
It
was
just
the
appearance
of
it
,
that
's
all
.
"
In
another
minute
they
were
at
the
outer
gate
,
where
Cowperwood
shook
the
warden
finally
by
the
hand
.
Then
entering
a
carriage
outside
the
large
,
impressive
,
Gothic
entrance
,
the
gates
were
locked
behind
them
and
they
were
driven
away
.
"
Well
,
there
's
an
end
of
that
,
Frank
,
"
observed
Steger
,
gayly
;
"
that
will
never
bother
you
any
more
.
"
"
Yes
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
.
"
It
's
worse
to
see
it
coming
than
going
.
"
"
It
seems
to
me
we
ought
to
celebrate
this
occasion
in
some
way
,
"
observed
Walter
Leigh
.
"
It
wo
n't
do
just
to
take
Frank
home
.
Why
do
n't
we
all
go
down
to
Green
's
?
That
's
a
good
idea
.
"
"
I
'd
rather
not
,
if
you
do
n't
mind
,
"
replied
Cowperwood
,
feelingly
.
"
I
'll
get
together
with
you
all
,
later
.
Just
now
I
'd
like
to
go
home
and
change
these
clothes
.

He
was
thinking
of
Aileen
and
his
children
and
his
mother
and
father
and
of
his
whole
future
.
Life
was
going
to
broaden
out
for
him
considerably
from
now
on
,
he
was
sure
of
it
.
He
had
learned
so
much
about
taking
care
of
himself
in
those
thirteen
months
.
He
was
going
to
see
Aileen
,
and
find
how
she
felt
about
things
in
general
,
and
then
he
was
going
to
resume
some
such
duties
as
he
had
had
in
his
own
concern
,
with
Wingate
&
Co.
.
He
was
going
to
secure
a
seat
on
'
change
again
,
through
his
friends
;
and
,
to
escape
the
effect
of
the
prejudice
of
those
who
might
not
care
to
do
business
with
an
ex-convict
,
he
was
going
to
act
as
general
outside
man
,
and
floor
man
on
'
charge
,
for
Wingate
&
Co.
.
His
practical
control
of
that
could
not
be
publicly
proved
.
Now
for
some
important
development
in
the
market
--
some
slump
or
something
.
He
would
show
the
world
whether
he
was
a
failure
or
not
.
They
let
him
down
in
front
of
his
wife
's
little
cottage
,
and
he
entered
briskly
in
the
gathering
gloom
.
On
September
18
,
1873
,
at
twelve-fifteen
of
a
brilliant
autumn
day
,
in
the
city
of
Philadelphia
,
one
of
the
most
startling
financial
tragedies
that
the
world
has
ever
seen
had
its
commencement
.
The
banking
house
of
Jay
Cooke
&
Co.
,
the
foremost
financial
organization
of
America
,
doing
business
at
Number
114
South
Third
Street
in
Philadelphia
,
and
with
branches
in
New
York
,
Washington
,
and
London
,
closed
its
doors
.
Those
who
know
anything
about
the
financial
crises
of
the
United
States
know
well
the
significance
of
the
panic
which
followed
.
It
is
spoken
of
in
all
histories
as
the
panic
of
1873
,
and
the
widespread
ruin
and
disaster
which
followed
was
practically
unprecedented
in
American
history
.
