I am sorry to leave you in such a tight place, but one or other of us must be squeezed, and on the whole I prefer that it should be you.

You'll find nothing in the bank, and about L13,000 unaccounted for.

I'm not sure that the best thing you can do is not to realize what you can, and imitate your senior's example.

If you act at once you may get clean away.

If not, it's not only that you must put up your shutters, but I am afraid that this missing money could hardly be included as an ordinary debt, and of course you are legally responsible for it just as much as I am.
