 You've done a fine job, Hiram. Only... Only what? Well, while you've been gone, we've been working on the Erie and Michigan Telegraph Company. Ezra Cornell's outfit. Oh, yes. Yes. Any success? Very little. Oh, we've managed to convince his two partners that consolidation would benefit both our lines. But old Ezra is the original lone wolf. He'll have no part of it. And without the Erie and Michigan, we're sunk. Their lines are the lines we need to really round out our system. That's right.
