John Marsh's Millions

When John Marsh the steel man died there was considerable stir in the inner circles of New York society. And no wonder. The wealthy ironmaster's unexpected demise certainly created a most awkward situation. It meant nothing less than the social rehabilitation of a certain individual who up to this time had been openly snubbed not to say deliberately "cut" by everybody in town. In other words Society was compelled figuratively speaking to go through the humiliating and distasteful performance of eating crow.
