Many times I had felt his plotting designs but due to standing business of mine, he [unclear] ever made it impossible for me to get out of his octopus clutches, and whenever my business was stopped by me, he never parted with my natt[unclear] capital, one the cash[unclear] balance being Rs. 80,000/-, the next time it being Rs. 40,000/- both the times I remained out of Bombay so that he may not involve me into fresh speculative business again as usual. But he never parted with my capital keeping ever[unclear] all of it with himself giving me only household expenses like a stingy father to a spendthrift son. I had worked with 20 Brokers, none of whom were INSINCERE with me except[unclear] [unclear] him though two or three brokers out of twenty had sometimes acted dishonestly.
