<MISADVENTURES AND DISAPPOINTMENT OF MR.GOGO>: (4) But my dear Gogo, you're joking, how can you leave in your business the three thousand francs my daughter brings you, and the two hundred thousand francs for which you are indebted to her?... do you consider that? to expose the fortune of my child to the risks of commerce!... and if you don't succeed,... if you die, my daughter will then be ruined?... not so, not so, if you please! you're going to marry according to dowry regulations, to put into a good mortgage,... Devil take it! I should foresee a separation, today you're a friend, tomorrow you're not, you see it all the time.
