Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Petrie Estate
I want my money spent in America, in plain terms. What do you say to that, sir?
Waring was stung by the threat implied. He forced himself to answer gently and carefully. In substance, he refused to make any promises as to his future. He pained himself and his Old friend, and neither touched the subject again. This had been the one incident to mar the ten derness of their intercourse for three months. Richard afterwards reproached himself for not indulging more gently what was plainly the con trolling idea of James Petrie's last days.
