As in thew Dane was a man born to rule's of brain,"_untiE`ing in energy. he had. ' by hisgsole-exertions, furmony years piloted the great house safely through sons, depression of trade, and failing commercial impulse. . Where others had sunk, submerged in the remorse- less stream, Matthew Dane had kept t` up his head--preserving, unbroken, the credit and` the prestige of the splen- did business whieh,.nearly half a cen- tury ago, herhud inherited from his grandfather. As to "Trichet." he had had no personiility since those remote ages when the French branch, at Lyons, had joined hands Will] the Lon- don firm, thereby consolidating and strengthening it to an extraordinary degree. Trichet, save in the person of one clerk, representing an almost unheeded junior branch of the old London, so in Lyons, Matthew Dane was the head and mainspring of the whole business. 1 He was. in "fact, a demi-god, not only tothe `firm, but, nnrnrlnnahxlv in himself L60. It L U. L seemed to- him that he had but. to` speak, un(_1_'his word became law; only to command, and servile obedience was instantly rendered unto him. He was master of all that come into contact- With him, for th"e11`ead:s of other great - houses, at home and abroad, with whom he did- business, and who, when Matthew Dane recommended such and such a course ofn action. were at once convinced of its_infu.llihi1ity, simply be- cause he advised -,it, of Joseph Haliiday -'--for long years his managing c1erk-` whom by his own good pleasure, and; for his own advantage, he had trans-f (erred, with one stroke of his pen, intoj. his partner, without in any way al-F tearing" `his position as his inferior of-I titer--ma.st'er too, of his clerks and his ` sefva.nts,_ of /his dependents, of every kind and degree, and last, but not; least, he was master of his wife. And' yet, curiously-enough, it was in the; pers`o`n of Mrs. Dane thatopposition hadmet that proud and domineering .- spirit in themost' obstinate and ug- gravated form.
