I Love You Again Page #5

Goodbye, Kay.

I met Mr. Billings in the lobby.

Came all the way from the | Habersville National Bank.

Is that so?

It's a long way to come from | the Habersville National Bank.

Bank?

Well, yes. How are you, Mr. Billings?

- How are you? | - Couldn't be keener, thanks.

Well, that's fine, fine. Pardon me, | I was just wool gathering a little.

- Here you are. Sit right down here. | - All right.

I think you'll find that's a nice, soft spot.

- Can I help you with that? | - That's just fine, thanks.

- How're tricks? | - Couldn't be keener, thanks.

- Well, now, here's the $5,000. | - Thank you.

- Now, that makes you $2,700 overdrawn. | - Overdrawn?

Well, when you went away, you | had on deposit with us $2,800.

Then we paid five hundred for | you as the final installment

on that plot of land at Marsh's subdivision.

Here's your deed for that. | It's all paid in full.

Oh, yes, yes. And I owe the bank $2,700?

The bank was only too | glad to accommodate you.

Nice of them.

Yes. Well, what about the other accounts?

Well, of course, the B and | C accounts are separate.

Oh, yes, of course, of course.

But they're listed here in the statement.

Yes, here we are.

In the C account we have $147,000.83.

Could I hear that again, please?

$147,000...

- And 83 cents. | - Yes.

- That's the Community Chest account. | - What?

I said, that's the Community Chest account.

Naturally, that amount is intact | as all checks drawn on that

have to be countersigned by Mr. | Sims, Miss Breathwaite, Mr. Allen,

two directors of the fund, Mr. | Cochran, and yourself, of course.

- Oh, yes, yes, of course. | - How about the National Guard?

Don't they have to sign it, too?

Now, in the B account,

- which is the Anti-Vice League | fund... - Anti-Vice League?

Well, we can skip that, right now, that is.

Well, just as you say, Mr. Wilson. | I trust I've made everything clear?

Oh, yes, yes. Very clear. | And you have the $5,000.

Yes, yes, we have the $5,000, all right.

- Yes, we have that. | - Yes.

- Well, good day, gentlemen. | - Thank you very much, Mr. Billings.

Give my compliments to Mr. | Sims and Miss Breathwaite.

- I will, indeedy. Goodbye. | - Goodbye.

Raising all that dough | for an anti-vice fund.

You certainly were a stinker!

Say, a guy that can raise that | much dough for the Community Chest

certainly ought to be able to | raise a few bucks for himself.

- It stands to reason. | - Sure.

Habersville. That's Pennsylvania.

- What about oil? | - There's lots of money in oil.

Doc, I think maybe you and I had better | be on our way to Habersville tomorrow.

You know, just to get the lay of the land.

Say, speaking of land, that guy Billings | gave me a deed or something. Sure!
