workmen workmenon on wage wae payable in a month
and at the end of that t at time had a mile
of track laid for a connecting line I
dont know how he obtained the tjes

rowed anything and he h wastoo a5 too no ¬
< if toriously torlousl honest to steal He went
right on mile after mile with his work
till within a year his road was done
a locomotive was hauling a train of

whole thing thin without sellinga seIllng seI1th a share of ofstock orstock
stock or a single bond bondfor for he was no
frenzied I financier I cant tell you
how he did it nor why the Standard
Oil people let him
No wonder he wag wa wanicknamed
nicknamed Lucky Larson may know
the particular > and presumably Wil Wilson Wfl60n WilHon ¬
son Barrett did for he wrote the play
in which the results are shown but
Barrett died without disclosing them themand
and when we first see John in Lucky
Durham he is eight or ten times a amillionaire a amillionaire amillionaire
millionaire He has now returned to
the England he was born in deter determined determined determined ¬

ham is remarkable and all the more so
because it is a resemblance of chance

he couldnt have stolen from Morris Iorris

There Is is s an ethical problem In Lucky
Durham to distinguish It above the theseriocomic theseriocomic theserlocoxnlc
seriocomic sentimentality of The
Usurper and that may account for the themistake themistake th thmistake
mistake of believing that Barretts

desirable way than Morris Durhams Durhan
