Text

START: DOGSBOROUGH: I should never have accepted this estate. Taking that package as a gift was beyond reproach.
YOUNG DOGSBOROUGH: Of course it was.
DOGSBOROUGH: And sponsoring that loan, when I discovered to my own detriment that a thriving line of business was languishing for lack of funds, was hardly dishonest.
[... …]
END: DOGSBOROUGH: I haven’t anything to do with this affair. For sixty years I’ve trodden the narrow path, as everybody knows. They can’t involve me in their schemes.
YOUNG DOGSBOROUGH: No, father. Do you feel better now?
