My worries were increasing. The boy at the shop was becoming more clamorous. My sales were poor, as the railways were admitting more peddlers on the platforms. My cash receipts were going down and my credit sales alone flourished. The wholesale merchants who supplied me with goods stopped credit to me. The boyβs methods of account-keeping was so chaotic that I did not know whether I was moving forward or backward. He produced cash from the counter in a haphazard manner, and there were immense gaps on the shelves all that nothing one wanted was ever available. Suddenly the railways gave me notice to quit. I
pleaded with the old station master and porter, but they could do nothing; the order had come from high up. The shop was given to a new contractor.
I could not contemplate the prospect of being cut off from the railways. I grew respect and angry. I shed tears at seeing a new man in the place where I and my father had sat. I slapped the boy on the cheek and the cried, and his father, the porter, came down on me and said, βthis is what he gets helping you! Iβd always told the boy- He was not your paid servant, anyway.β
