"The black -bearded man said no more. though he looked me over carefully, and Perkinauu est dawn. Presently the other sun's friend came in, and the black bearded mak sot up, had his dishes removed to another table after some bother to get hold of • waiter; and they sat down together, while we went on w ith our leech and our business. "About a month after that then was • mater of some £1,000 difference in • betsess • man in our trade and myself, and we agreed to leave it to arbitration. We rah .elected our man, and they selected • third, who wasn't know to me but who was said to be • very her man. 1 had my aide vet forth in gond shape, and knew I should hare w on the case mail enough.
