Excerpt from Sixty Years, Vol. 2: Life and Adventure in the Far East

Johnnie felt that he could no longer ask a favour from any man living. He was humbled to the dust. What lay before him in the shape Of insult, reproach and calumny he knew not. He made up his mind to accept the worst, but he would beg no more.

After his conversation with Busoni, the first question which occurred to him was: How does a firm suspend payment? The unfortunate man had never contem plated such a crisis, and had not the faintest idea of how to deal with it. However, this particular part Of the business was made just as easy for Johnnie Northwood as it was for the young lady who inquired Of her doctor how she should know when she was seasick on the occasion Of her first trip across the Channel. A stormy passage settled the point for the pair of them.
