WHAT CHANGE IS HENCHARD GOING TO MAKE TO HIS BUSINESS?

He's hired a manger for the corn department.

"You must make allowances for the accidents of a large business," he said. "You must bear in mind that the weather just at the harvest of that corn was worse than we have known it for years. However, I have mended my arrangements on account o't. Since I have found my business too large to be well looked after by myself alone, I have advertised for a thorough good man as manager of the corn department. When I've got him you will find these mistakes will no longer occur-matters will be better looked into."
