Turning for a moment to the absent clerk's home, we find his wife dying. The young man is doing his best to gratify her wishes, glances at the clock at intervals, remains at home until the last possible moment, then rushes to the office. Arriving there behind his accustomed time, his fellow clerks ask the reason and are told of the trouble at home. He goes about his work listlessly, when suddenly the door opens and the maid servant enters, hands him a message to the effect that his wife is dead. The clerk shows the note to the manager, asks for a few days off, but the request is gruffly granted. His associates cast sympathetic glances as he goes and, when one of the number proposes sending a floral piece, all contribute save the manager, who sulkily refuses. The clerks depart, and, when alone, the manager glances at his watch, starts to leave also, then changes his mind and begins to rummage through his desk. He presently finds what he is looking for, a faded photograph. He gazes at it a few moments, then his manner softens. He takes his check book, makes out a check for $50 and sends it with a letter of apology for his gruffness and also of sympathy for the clerk in his bereavement, to the home of the latter.
