The foreman, however, also liked her, and Hank didn't have much of a chance until her car ran away and Hank got in the way of the car and stopped it involuntarily. In gratitude the Magnate made him foreman over his vast brick pressery. Hank right away tried to fire the foreman, but several unforeseen events happened which Hank wasn't looking for. One was a husky individual who took exception to Hank's being on the lot when he wasn't in good standing with the bricklayers' union. Also a dynamite house got in the way while Hank was hot-footing it and he had to enter it, although it was very much against his will. He fell in just as the dynamite was about to explode. The foreman and brick maker also entered when they didn't want to, at all, the dynamite exploded unexpectedly. When last seen they were all three going south by east at a very rapid rate.
