" Brayton is making a complete fool of himself It is too bad. " POISON IN THE CUP. 361 " Yes ; lie can't stand it long so. " " How he wastes money ! " " Yes ; it goes like dirt. He will very soon rnn through it. " "How much do you s'pose he has left of the legacy ? " " Half on't, like enough ; may be more don't know!" " Too bad to have him squander it so don't do anybody any good. " " It's his own. " " Just so, " blandly answered Skillott. " But such men as Jud Lane and Mike Henry are getting m...ore than their share of it. " The bait took, and a slight smile crept coldly over Skillott's countenance, as he watched the effects of his words upon Hermon. " It would be a kindness, would some trusty friends take charge of his money and keep it for him. " The lawyer still watched Hermon keenly, as he assumed a careless tone and air, drumming with his fingers on the counter. Hermon -made no response, and Skillott continued : " I'll warrant Jud Lane has taken a good share, and he never has done one-hundredth part as much for Brayton as you have" Hermon did not see the sneer that lingered around Skillott's lips as he spoke the last words, but began to be aroused by the crafty words of the Judge.
