Show Method In His Forgiveness. One of C. W. Morse's acquaintances called a friend into his Wall street office the other day. He said that be wanted to show something funny. "Look at this," said be. "It is nn engraved acknowledgment of Mr. Morse's thanks to those who sent him congratulatory letters and telegrams, when he was released from the penitentiary peni-tentiary at Atlanta." It didn't make a tremendous hit with the man to whom it was shown. He breezed hastily through some of the better known aspects of Mr. Morse's character, and predicted gloomily, as to Mr. Morse's future. "Don't talk that way," said the banker. "I don't lVlte to hear people roast poor Charley like that." Tho other fellow stared open eyed. "That's funny," said he. "Morse sold you out in the most cold blooded manner man-ner possible. He double-crossed you. and then, to make It good, he triple-crossed triple-crossed you. And now you're talking love and forgiveness for the man who Jobbed you. Is your bean loose?" "It la not," said the banker, decidedly. decid-edly. "Morse owes me $400,000. Now that he's out of Jail, he may pay m back." New York Correspondence Cincinnati Times-Star. |
