‘
Half
a
minute
,
sir
,
’
said
Mr
.
Omer
.
‘
If
you
was
to
go
without
seeing
my
little
elephant
,
you
’
d
lose
the
best
of
sights
.
You
never
see
such
a
sight
!
Minnie
!
’
A
musical
little
voice
answered
,
from
somewhere
upstairs
,
‘
I
am
coming
,
grandfather
!
’
and
a
pretty
little
girl
with
long
,
flaxen
,
curling
hair
,
soon
came
running
into
the
shop
.
‘
This
is
my
little
elephant
,
sir
,
’
said
Mr
.
Omer
,
fondling
the
child
.
‘
Siamese
breed
,
sir
.
Now
,
little
elephant
!
’
The
little
elephant
set
the
door
of
the
parlour
open
,
enabling
me
to
see
that
,
in
these
latter
days
,
it
was
converted
into
a
bedroom
for
Mr
.

Omer
who
could
not
be
easily
conveyed
upstairs
;
and
then
hid
her
pretty
forehead
,
and
tumbled
her
long
hair
,
against
the
back
of
Mr
.
Omer
’
s
chair
.
‘
The
elephant
butts
,
you
know
,
sir
,
’
said
Mr
.
Omer
,
winking
,
‘
when
he
goes
at
a
object
.
Once
,
elephant
.
Twice
.
Three
times
!
’
At
this
signal
,
the
little
elephant
,
with
a
dexterity
that
was
next
to
marvellous
in
so
small
an
animal
,
whisked
the
chair
round
with
Mr
.
Omer
in
it
,
and
rattled
it
off
,
pell
-
mell
,
into
the
parlour
,
without
touching
the
door
-
post
:
Mr
.
Omer
indescribably
enjoying
the
performance
,
and
looking
back
at
me
on
the
road
as
if
it
were
the
triumphant
issue
of
his
life
’
s
exertions
.
After
a
stroll
about
the
town
I
went
to
Ham
’
s
house
.
Peggotty
had
now
removed
here
for
good
;
and
had
let
her
own
house
to
the
successor
of
Mr
.
Barkis
in
the
carrying
business
,
who
had
paid
her
very
well
for
the
good
-
will
,
cart
,
and
horse
.
I
believe
the
very
same
slow
horse
that
Mr
.
Barkis
drove
was
still
at
work
.

I
found
them
in
the
neat
kitchen
,
accompanied
by
Mrs
.
Gummidge
,
who
had
been
fetched
from
the
old
boat
by
Mr
.
Peggotty
himself
.
I
doubt
if
she
could
have
been
induced
to
desert
her
post
,
by
anyone
else
.
He
had
evidently
told
them
all
.
Both
Peggotty
and
Mrs
.
Gummidge
had
their
aprons
to
their
eyes
,
and
Ham
had
just
stepped
out
‘
to
take
a
turn
on
the
beach
’
.
He
presently
came
home
,
very
glad
to
see
me
;
and
I
hope
they
were
all
the
better
for
my
being
there
.
We
spoke
,
with
some
approach
to
cheerfulness
,
of
Mr
.
Peggotty
’
s
growing
rich
in
a
new
country
,
and
of
the
wonders
he
would
describe
in
his
letters
.
We
said
nothing
of
Emily
by
name
,
but
distantly
referred
to
her
more
than
once
.
Ham
was
the
serenest
of
the
party
.
But
,
Peggotty
told
me
,
when
she
lighted
me
to
a
little
chamber
where
the
Crocodile
book
was
lying
ready
for
me
on
the
table
,
that
he
always
was
the
same
.
She
believed
(
she
told
me
,
crying
)
that
he
was
broken
-
hearted
;
though
he
was
as
full
of
courage
as
of
sweetness
,
and
worked
harder
and
better
than
any
boat
-
builder
in
any
yard
in
all
that
part
.
There
were
times
,
she
said
,
of
an
evening
,
when
he
talked
of
their
old
life
in
the
boat
-
house
;
and
then
he
mentioned
Emily
as
a
child
.
But
,
he
never
mentioned
her
as
a
woman
.
