Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Main Chance "Well, sir, they say I´m crooked!" William Porter tipped back his swivel chair and placidly puffed a cigar as he watched the effect of this declaration on the young man who sat talking to him. "That´s said of every successful man nowadays, isn´t it?" asked John Saxton. The president of the Clarkson National Bank ignored the question and rolled his cigar from one side of his mouth to the other, as he waited for his words to make their full impression upon his visitor. "They say I´m crooked," he repeated, with a narrowing of the eyes, "but they don´t say it very loud!" Porter kicked his heels together gently and watched his visitor with eyes in which there was no trace of humor; but Saxton saw´ that he was expected to laugh. "No, sir;" the banker continued, "they don´t say it very loud, and I guess they don´t any of them want to have to prove it.
