Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Phileas Fox, Attorney It was in the year of grace 18 - , when the nineteenth century was well on the way to its close, that a new sign was placed upon a recently-vanished door of an office not many paces from Wall Street. And to the elevator boy, and the few others who gave it even cursory attention, as they rushed in and out of the busy hives that constituted the score or more of offices in that building, it read: "Phileas Fox, Attorney and Counsellor at Law." Within waited at a desk, which was saved from being too obviously new only by the fact that it had been purchased at second-hand, sat the very gentleman whose visiting card bore a similar appellation. The room which had thus been consecrated to the law was small, and it contained, besides the desk, an office chair occupied by the barrister himself, and two or three others, still vacant, upon which it was hoped that future clients would sit.
