‘
Barkis

’
And
,
it
being
low
water
,
he
went
out
with
the
tide
.
It
was
not
difficult
for
me
,
on
Peggotty
’
s
solicitation
,
to
resolve
to
stay
where
I
was
,
until
after
the
remains
of
the
poor
carrier
should
have
made
their
last
journey
to
Blunderstone
.
She
had
long
ago
bought
,
out
of
her
own
savings
,
a
little
piece
of
ground
in
our
old
churchyard
near
the
grave
of
‘
her
sweet
girl
’
,
as
she
always
called
my
mother
;
and
there
they
were
to
rest
.

In
keeping
Peggotty
company
,
and
doing
all
I
could
for
her
(
little
enough
at
the
utmost
)
,
I
was
as
grateful
,
I
rejoice
to
think
,
as
even
now
I
could
wish
myself
to
have
been
.
But
I
am
afraid
I
had
a
supreme
satisfaction
,
of
a
personal
and
professional
nature
,
in
taking
charge
of
Mr
.
Barkis
’
s
will
,
and
expounding
its
contents
.
I
may
claim
the
merit
of
having
originated
the
suggestion
that
the
will
should
be
looked
for
in
the
box
.
After
some
search
,
it
was
found
in
the
box
,
at
the
bottom
of
a
horse
’
s
nose
-
bag
;
wherein
(
besides
hay
)
there
was
discovered
an
old
gold
watch
,
with
chain
and
seals
,
which
Mr
.
Barkis
had
worn
on
his
wedding
-
day
,
and
which
had
never
been
seen
before
or
since
;
a
silver
tobacco
-
stopper
,
in
the
form
of
a
leg
;
an
imitation
lemon
,
full
of
minute
cups
and
saucers
,
which
I
have
some
idea
Mr
.
Barkis
must
have
purchased
to
present
to
me
when
I
was
a
child
,
and
afterwards
found
himself
unable
to
part
with
;
eighty
-
seven
guineas
and
a
half
,
in
guineas
and
half
-
guineas
;
two
hundred
and
ten
pounds
,
in
perfectly
clean
Bank
notes
;
certain
receipts
for
Bank
of
England
stock
;
an
old
horseshoe
,
a
bad
shilling
,
a
piece
of
camphor
,
and
an
oyster
-
shell
.
From
the
circumstance
of
the
latter
article
having
been
much
polished
,
and
displaying
prismatic
colours
on
the
inside
,
I
conclude
that
Mr
.
Barkis
had
some
general
ideas
about
pearls
,
which
never
resolved
themselves
into
anything
definite
.
For
years
and
years
,
Mr
.
Barkis
had
carried
this
box
,
on
all
his
journeys
,
every
day
.
That
it
might
the
better
escape
notice
,
he
had
invented
a
fiction
that
it
belonged
to
‘
Mr
.
Blackboy
’
,
and
was
‘
to
be
left
with
Barkis
till
called
for
’
;
a
fable
he
had
elaborately
written
on
the
lid
,
in
characters
now
scarcely
legible
.

He
had
hoarded
,
all
these
years
,
I
found
,
to
good
purpose
.
His
property
in
money
amounted
to
nearly
three
thousand
pounds
.
Of
this
he
bequeathed
the
interest
of
one
thousand
to
Mr
.
Peggotty
for
his
life
;
on
his
decease
,
the
principal
to
be
equally
divided
between
Peggotty
,
little
Emily
,
and
me
,
or
the
survivor
or
survivors
of
us
,
share
and
share
alike
.
All
the
rest
he
died
possessed
of
,
he
bequeathed
to
Peggotty
;
whom
he
left
residuary
legatee
,
and
sole
executrix
of
that
his
last
will
and
testament
.
I
felt
myself
quite
a
proctor
when
I
read
this
document
aloud
with
all
possible
ceremony
,
and
set
forth
its
provisions
,
any
number
of
times
,
to
those
whom
they
concerned
.
I
began
to
think
there
was
more
in
the
Commons
than
I
had
supposed
.
I
examined
the
will
with
the
deepest
attention
,
pronounced
it
perfectly
formal
in
all
respects
,
made
a
pencil
-
mark
or
so
in
the
margin
,
and
thought
it
rather
extraordinary
that
I
knew
so
much
.
In
this
abstruse
pursuit
;
in
making
an
account
for
Peggotty
,
of
all
the
property
into
which
she
had
come
;
in
arranging
all
the
affairs
in
an
orderly
manner
;
and
in
being
her
referee
and
adviser
on
every
point
,
to
our
joint
delight
;
I
passed
the
week
before
the
funeral
.
I
did
not
see
little
Emily
in
that
interval
,
but
they
told
me
she
was
to
be
quietly
married
in
a
fortnight
.
