ABSTRACT
YOUNG Northwood served some two years or more in Brownlow’s office before he woke up to a realization of his rather dismal future in the service of the premier firm of Singapore. Finlay worked him very hard, but that was a mere detail. Johnnie discovered that however much he toiled, and whatever his aptitude for business might be, he had a poor chance against Brownlow’s picked men with several years’ seniority and experience at the back of them.
