You don't know where to turn for a penny.

If you're agreeable, I'll put a trustworthy man in this office an' give 'im full powers to pull your affairs straight.
Mind you, I'm doin' this for Iris, not for you.

An' now that we know wot's 'appening in South America, you an' I will go out there and look into things.

A mail steamer will take us there in sixteen days, an' before we sail we can work the cables a bit so as to stop Iris from startin' for 'ome before we arrive.

The trip will do us good, an' we'll be away from the gossip of Bootle.
