If he fails to purchase the stock when ordered. hoping to buy the stock at a lower price and pocket the diflerence. he has concededly converted his client's money; if he does purchase the stock when onlero ed. but treats the stock as his own. parting with the stock so he cannot deliver it on demand, it seems to me that. he has also failed to obey the directions to buy the stock for the client and has also converted the client's money."
