There were trembling lips, there were trembling hands, there were sinking hearts everywhere ; and you felt as though an earthquake was rum- bling beneath your business, and that any min- ute might bring disaster and ruin. It was Digitized by Google 68 HONESTY.
the work of only a few men, and yet it so dis- turbed the whole community that the very pulse of commercial life stood still, and health is not even now restored.
Men in business are like a succession of bricks standing on end : if this m...an falls he hits the one close to him, and unless he has superhuman strength he tumbles too ; and so one dishonest hand in the community, that dares to grasp more than belongs to it, clutches the welfare of a thousand homes, and hurts the hopes and aspirations of half a city. And yet New York is so strange a place that though four weeks only have gone by since that terrible calamity threw its shadow upon usy it is all forgotten. No lesson has been learned. A month is a generation in such a city as this ; and even now you look back to that panic, as to a legendary event that hap- pened years and years ago.
