Tuff kept those records because he was using his own money to transport the skim, he was constantly getting screwed out of traveling expense money. He kept the records to show who got what and then he claimed what he felt covered his expenses. The records, the cash in uncle nicks attic and many other things are the result of a group who did not realize their iron grip on the city, the courts and the police were fading, due mostly to technology. As for Tuffy, he was like a grandfather to me, treated me like I was his own, he and Rags (Ragusa) while dangerous and killers, they did not live that role 24 hours a day.. Franky is a lot like his brother, without the flash temper, he is a lot like Uncle Nick, he is a thinker and well read.
