1. The death of Ben Rosselli attracted international coverage. The funeral took place on Wednesday in the second week of December. The atmosphere was rather depressing. FMA shares, listed on the New York Stock Exchange, fell five and a half points. Alex Vandervoort, Edwina D'Orsey and her husband Lewis discussed the situation.

"If earnings are good, our stock will go up again." Alex said. "Nothing has really changed".

"Oh, I know that", Lewis agreed. "That's why I'll cover my short position tomorrow afternoon and I advised a few clients to do the same. As of right now there is a tidy profit." Edwina looked shocked." You and I know I never discuss anything confidential with you, Lewis", she protested." Others don't. If people learn about my connection with the bank, you will be accused of insider trading." Alex shook his head. "Not in this case, Edwina. Ben's illness was public knowledge."

2. By prior agreement, Roscoe Heyward and Alex Vandervoort did not attend the reconvened meeting of the board. "When the board make a decision, we shall summon you", Jerome Patterton said. Each waited in his office. The summons came shortly before noon. Harold Austin announced the bank's decision. Jerome Patterton became president of FMA. Later the same day Jerome Patterton had separate talks, with Heyward and Vandervoort. "I'm an interim Pope', he informed each of them." You know, that I didn't seek the job. I am only thirteen months from mandatory retirement. But the board was deadlocked over you two. If we give them more time, perhaps they will make up their minds. In the meantime though, if you help me, I'll do my best. The only thing I can promise is an interesting year."

"Hello, Mrs Nunez', Margot said. "I heard that you had some kind of problem at the bank where you work'.

Juanita's face clouded. She described the six-thousand-dollar cash loss and the forty-eight-hour nightmare of suspicion and interrogation.

"Why didn't you call me? Edwina D'Orsey is my cousin. I am going to talk to her about this".

Juanita looked startled. 'I didn't know but please don't! After all, it was Mrs D'Orsey who found the truth".

"All right. If you don't want, I won't. But remember this: if you are in trouble again, about anything, call me. I'll be there to help'.

When the bank witnesses left the courtroom, Nolan Wainwright came up to Juanita. "If you don't mind, I will walk with you to the bank. Look, I've never found it easy to say I am sorry. But now I want to say it. I am sorry for the trouble I caused you. Which is why I'd like to help you now, if I can. If you have a problem, a real problem, will you call me?"

"The ballgame is over. No appeal." answered Miles Eastin. Next day he was transferred to a federal prison.
