Gatsby's Life

It was indirectly due to Cody that Gatsby drank so little. Sometimes in the course of gay parties, women used to rub champagne into his hair. For himself, he formed the habit of letting the girl alone. And it was from Cody that he inherited money. A legacy of $25,000. He didn't get it. What remained of the millions went intact to L.K.A. The vague contour of J.J. Gatsby had filled out the substantiality of a man.
