abridged in 17 parts by Archie Campbell
Read by Neville Jason
(1) After more than 20 years at the Treasury, where he had attained a certain importance, Mr Prohack was used to thinking in millions. But even in 1920 Civil Service salaries didn't keep pace with the cost of living and he was one of the 'honest poor'. Then an unexpected legacy disrupted his life, threatening all he had stood for.
