What
!
Did
you
give
him
no
money
on
account
of
anybody
,
Sir
?
’
asked
Mr
Garland
,
with
great
anxiety
.
‘
I
give
him
money
,
Sir
!
’
returned
Sampson
.
‘
Oh
,
come
you
know
,
this
is
too
barefaced
.
Constable
,
my
good
fellow
,
we
had
better
be
going
.
’
‘
What
!
’
shrieked
Kit
.
‘
Does
he
deny
that
he
did
?
ask
him
,
somebody
,
pray
.
Ask
him
to
tell
you
whether
he
did
or
not
!

‘
Did
you
,
sir
?
’
asked
the
notary
.
‘
I
tell
you
what
,
gentlemen
,
’
replied
Brass
,
in
a
very
grave
manner
,
‘
he
’
ll
not
serve
his
case
this
way
,
and
really
,
if
you
feel
any
interest
in
him
,
you
had
better
advise
him
to
go
upon
some
other
tack
.
Did
I
,
sir
?
Of
course
I
never
did
.
’
‘
Gentlemen
,
’
cried
Kit
,
on
whom
a
light
broke
suddenly
,
‘
Master
,
Mr
Abel
,
Mr
Witherden
,
every
one
of
you
—
he
did
it
!
What
I
have
done
to
offend
him
,
I
don
’
t
know
,
but
this
is
a
plot
to
ruin
me
.
Mind
,
gentlemen
,
it
’
s
a
plot
,
and
whatever
comes
of
it
,
I
will
say
with
my
dying
breath
that
he
put
that
note
in
my
hat
himself
!
Look
at
him
,
gentlemen
!
see
how
he
changes
colour
.
Which
of
us
looks
the
guilty
person
—
he
,
or
I
?
’
‘
You
hear
him
,
gentlemen
?
’
said
Brass
,
smiling
,
‘
you
hear
him
.
Now
,
does
this
case
strike
you
as
assuming
rather
a
black
complexion
,
or
does
it
not
?
Is
it
at
all
a
treacherous
case
,
do
you
think
,
or
is
it
one
of
mere
ordinary
guilt
?
Perhaps
,
gentlemen
,
if
he
had
not
said
this
in
your
presence
and
I
had
reported
it
,
you
’
d
have
held
this
to
be
impossible
likewise
,
eh
?

With
such
pacific
and
bantering
remarks
did
Mr
Brass
refute
the
foul
aspersion
on
his
character
;
but
the
virtuous
Sarah
,
moved
by
stronger
feelings
,
and
having
at
heart
,
perhaps
,
a
more
jealous
regard
for
the
honour
of
her
family
,
flew
from
her
brother
’
s
side
,
without
any
previous
intimation
of
her
design
,
and
darted
at
the
prisoner
with
the
utmost
fury
.
It
would
undoubtedly
have
gone
hard
with
Kit
’
s
face
,
but
that
the
wary
constable
,
foreseeing
her
design
,
drew
him
aside
at
the
critical
moment
,
and
thus
placed
Mr
Chuckster
in
circumstances
of
some
jeopardy
;
for
that
gentleman
happening
to
be
next
the
object
of
Miss
Brass
’
s
wrath
;
and
rage
being
,
like
love
and
fortune
,
blind
;
was
pounced
upon
by
the
fair
enslaver
,
and
had
a
false
collar
plucked
up
by
the
roots
,
and
his
hair
very
much
dishevelled
,
before
the
exertions
of
the
company
could
make
her
sensible
of
her
mistake
.
The
constable
,
taking
warning
by
this
desperate
attack
,
and
thinking
perhaps
that
it
would
be
more
satisfactory
to
the
ends
of
justice
if
the
prisoner
were
taken
before
a
magistrate
,
whole
,
rather
than
in
small
pieces
,
led
him
back
to
the
hackney
-
coach
without
more
ado
,
and
moreover
insisted
on
Miss
Brass
becoming
an
outside
passenger
;
to
which
proposal
the
charming
creature
,
after
a
little
angry
discussion
,
yielded
her
consent
;
and
so
took
her
brother
Sampson
’
s
place
upon
the
box
:
Mr
Brass
with
some
reluctance
agreeing
to
occupy
her
seat
inside
.
These
arrangements
perfected
,
they
drove
to
the
justice
-
room
with
all
speed
,
followed
by
the
notary
and
his
two
friends
in
another
coach
.
Mr
Chuckster
alone
was
left
behind
—
greatly
to
his
indignation
;
for
he
held
the
evidence
he
could
have
given
,
relative
to
Kit
’
s
returning
to
work
out
the
shilling
,
to
be
so
very
material
as
bearing
upon
his
hypocritical
and
designing
character
,
that
he
considered
its
suppression
little
better
than
a
compromise
of
felony
