remonstrates        Grandfather       Smallweed察       cunningly      rubbing     his 

spare  legs。   ^Not   quite   a   dead   halt察  I   think。   He   has   good   friends察

and he is good for his pay察and he is good for the selling price of 

his commission察and he is good for his chance in a lawsuit察and he 

is good for his chance in a wife察and!oh察do you know察Mr George察

I   think   my   friend   would   consider   the   young   gentleman   good   for

velvet cap察and scratching his ear like a monkey。 

    Mr George察who has put aside his pipe and sits with an arm on 

his chair´back察beats a tattoo on the ground with his right foot察as 

if he were not particularly pleased with the turn the conversation 

had taken。

Smallweed。   ^To   promote   the   conversation察 as   a   joker   might   say。 

To pass察Mr George察from the ensign to the captain。 ̄ 

    ^What are you up to察now拭院asked   Mr  George察  pausing  with  a 

frown     in   stroking    the   recollection    of  his   moustache。      ^What

    ^Our captain。 The captain we know of。 Captain Hawdon。 ̄ 

    ^O  that¨s   it察is   it拭院  says   Mr   George察  with   a   low   whistle察  as   he 

sees   both   grandfather   and   grand´daughter   looking   hard   at   him察

    ^Bosh 院

you can judge for yourself according to questions asked of me察and 

the   reasons   given   for   asking   ¨em。   Now察  what   do   you   think   the 

lawyer making the inquiries wants拭院

    ^A job察院says Mr George。 

    ^Nothing of the kind 院

    ^Can¨t   be   a   lawyer察  then察院  says   Mr   George察  folding   his   arms 

with an air of confirmed resolution。 

    ^My dear friend察he is a lawyer and a famous one。 He wants to 

see some fragment in Captain Hawdon¨s writing。 He don¨t want to 

keep it。 He only wants to see it察and compare it with a writing in

   ^Well拭院

   ^Well察  Mr  George。   Happening  to  remember  the   advertisement 

concerning   Captain   Hawdon察  and   any   information   that   could   be

did察my dear friend。 Will you shake hands拭So glad you came察that 

day。 I should have missed forming such a friendship察if you hadn¨t 

come 院

   ^Well察   Mr   Smallweed拭院      says   Mr   George    again察  after  going 

through the ceremony with some stiffness。 

   ^I had no such thing。 I have nothing but his signature。 Plague 

pestilence     and   famine察  battle  murder     and   sudden    death    upon 

him察院  says   the   old   man察  making   a  curse   out   of   one   of   his  few 

remembrances         of  a  prayer察  and   squeezing     up   his  velvet   cap 

between his angry hands察 I have half a million of his signatures察I 

think But you察院breathlessly recovering his mildness of speech察as 

Judy readjusts the cap on his skittle´ball of a head察 You察my dear 

Mr George察are likely to have some letter or paper that would suit 

the   purpose。    Anything     would    suit  the  purpose察   written   in  the 

hand。 ̄ 

   ^Some writing in that hand察院says the trooper察pondering察 may 

be察I have。 ̄ 

   ^My dearest friend 院

   ^May be察I have not。 ̄

   ^But if I had bushels of it察I would not show as much as would

    ^Not enough察院says the trooper察shaking his head。 ^I must know 

more察and approve it。 ̄ 

    ^Then察  will   you   come   to   the   lawyer拭  My   dear   friend察  will   you 

come      and   see   the   gentleman拭院      urges    Grandfather       Smallweed察

pulling  out   a   lean   old   silver   watch察  with   hands   like   the   legs   of  a 

skeleton。     ^I   told  him    it  was   probable     I  might    call   upon    him察

between ten and eleven this forenoon察and it¨s now half after ten。

    ^Hum 院says   he察  gravely。   ^I don¨t mind   that。   Though  why  this 

should concern you so much察I don¨t know。 ̄ 

    ^Everything   concerns   me察  that   has   a   chance   in   it   of   bringing 

anything to light about him。 Didn¨t he take us all in拭Didn¨t he owe 

us   immense   sums察  all      round拭  Concern   me拭  Who   can   anything 

about   him   concern察  more   than   me拭  Not察  my   dear   friend察院  says 

Grandfather   Smallweed察  lowering   his   tone察   that   I   want  you   to 

betray   anything。   Far   from   it。   Are   you      ready   to   come察  my   dear 

friend拭院

    ^Ay I¨ll come in a moment。 I promise nothing察you know。 ̄ 

    ^No察my dear Mr George察no。 ̄ 

    ^And you mean to say you¨re going to give me a lift to this place察

wherever       it  is察 without    charging     for  it拭院  Mr   George     inquires察

getting his hat察and thick wash´leather gloves。 

    This   pleasantry   so   tickles   Mr   Smallweed察  that   he   laughs   long 

and low察before the fire。 But even while he laughs察he glances over 

his paralytic shoulder at Mr George察  and  eagerly  watches   him as 

he unlocks the padlock of a homely cupboard at the distant end of 

the   gallery察  looks   here   and   there   upon   the   higher   shelves察  and 

ultimately   takes   something   out   with   a   rustling   of   paper察  folds   it察

and   puts   it   in   his   breast。   Then   Judy   pokes   Mr   Smallweed   once察

and Mr Smallweed pokes Judy once。 

    ^I   am   ready察院  says   the   trooper察  coming   back。   ^Phil察  you   can 

carry this old gentleman to his coach察and make nothing of him。 ̄ 

    ^O   dear   me   O   Lord   Stop   a   moment 院  says   Mr   Smallweed。 

^He¨s   so   very   prompt   Are   you   sure   you   can   do   it   carefully察  my 

worthy man拭院

    Phil makes   no  reply察  but察seizing  the   chair  and   its  load察  sidles 

away察  tightly   hugged   by   the   now   speechless   Mr   Smallweed察  and 

bolts along the passage as if he had an acceptable commission to
