You remember our offer this evening?
:58:11
-No.
-Well, it was $5,500.
:58:15
That's why I don't remember it. $5,500.
:58:18
Ernie, I think we can get the company
to come up with another $750.
:58:22
That would make it $6,250.
:58:24
Of course, we'd have to have
an immediate answer on that.
:58:27
Well, Mr. Sears...
:58:31
the immediate answer to that is, "No."
:59:02
I have to tell you the rest of my story.
Come on.
:59:05
Excuse me, if I may intercede here.
:59:08
Mr. McCabe, may I call you John?
I have a son called John, not unlike you.
:59:13
You've done a wonderful job here.
You've built up a beautiful business.
:59:17
And here we are, ready to give you
a substantial gain in capital.
:59:21
An offer from one of the most
solid companies in the United States.
:59:25
And you say, "No."
Well, frankly, I don't understand.
:59:31
I don't have to tell you that our people
are going to be quite concerned...
:59:35
if you know what I mean.
:59:38
The way I feel about this is that
you gentlemen come up here, and you...
:59:42
want a man in my position
to sell off his property.
:59:46
I think there's got to be a good reason.
:59:48
Now, I'd think that a pretty good reason
would be $14,000, $15,000.
:59:54
Why don't you come by tomorrow
for breakfast, and we'll just talk about it.
