My
guineas
are
as
good
as
theirs
,
George
,
my
boy
;
and
I
do
n't
grudge
'em
.
Call
on
Mr.
Chopper
as
you
go
through
the
City
to-morrow
;
he
'll
have
something
for
you
.
I
do
n't
grudge
money
when
I
know
you
're
in
good
society
,
because
I
know
that
good
society
can
never
go
wrong
.
There
's
no
pride
in
me
.
I
was
a
humbly
born
man
--
but
you
have
had
advantages
.
Make
a
good
use
of
'em
.
Mix
with
the
young
nobility
.
There
's
many
of
'em
who
ca
n't
spend
a
dollar
to
your
guinea
,
my
boy
.
And
as
for
the
pink
bonnets
(
here
from
under
the
heavy
eyebrows
there
came
a
knowing
and
not
very
pleasing
leer
)
--
why
boys
will
be
boys
.
Only
there
's
one
thing
I
order
you
to
avoid
,
which
,
if
you
do
not
,
I
'll
cut
you
off
with
a
shilling
,
by
Jove
;
and
that
's
gambling
.
"
"
Oh
,
of
course
,
sir
,
"
said
George
.
"
But
to
return
to
the
other
business
about
Amelia
:
why
should
n't
you
marry
higher
than
a
stockbroker
's
daughter
,
George
--
that
's
what
I
want
to
know
?
"
"
It
's
a
family
business
,
sir
,
"
.
says
George
,
cracking
filberts
.
"
You
and
Mr.
Sedley
made
the
match
a
hundred
years
ago
.
"
"
I
do
n't
deny
it
;
but
people
's
positions
alter
,
sir
.
I
do
n't
deny
that
Sedley
made
my
fortune
,
or
rather
put
me
in
the
way
of
acquiring
,
by
my
own
talents
and
genius
,
that
proud
position
,
which
,
I
may
say
,
I
occupy
in
the
tallow
trade
and
the
City
of
London
.
I
've
shown
my
gratitude
to
Sedley
;
and
he
's
tried
it
of
late
,
sir
,
as
my
cheque-book
can
show
.
George
!
I
tell
you
in
confidence
I
do
n't
like
the
looks
of
Mr.
Sedley
's
affairs
.
My
chief
clerk
,
Mr.
Chopper
,
does
not
like
the
looks
of
'em
,
and
he
's
an
old
file
,
and
knows
'
Change
as
well
as
any
man
in
London
.
Hulker
&
Bullock
are
looking
shy
at
him
.
He
's
been
dabbling
on
his
own
account
I
fear
.
They
say
the
Jeune
Amelie
was
his
,
which
was
taken
by
the
Yankee
privateer
Molasses
.
And
that
's
flat
--
unless
I
see
Amelia
's
ten
thousand
down
you
do
n't
marry
her
.
I
'll
have
no
lame
duck
's
daughter
in
my
family
.
Pass
the
wine
,
sir
--
or
ring
for
coffee
.
"
With
which
Mr.
Osborne
spread
out
the
evening
paper
,
and
George
knew
from
this
signal
that
the
colloquy
was
ended
,
and
that
his
papa
was
about
to
take
a
nap
.
He
hurried
upstairs
to
Amelia
in
the
highest
spirits
.
What
was
it
that
made
him
more
attentive
to
her
on
that
night
than
he
had
been
for
a
long
time
--
more
eager
to
amuse
her
,
more
tender
,
more
brilliant
in
talk
?
Was
it
that
his
generous
heart
warmed
to
her
at
the
prospect
of
misfortune
;
or
that
the
idea
of
losing
the
dear
little
prize
made
him
value
it
more
?
She
lived
upon
the
recollections
of
that
happy
evening
for
many
days
afterwards
,
remembering
his
words
;
his
looks
;
the
song
he
sang
;
his
attitude
,
as
he
leant
over
her
or
looked
at
her
from
a
distance
.
As
it
seemed
to
her
,
no
night
ever
passed
so
quickly
at
Mr.
Osborne
's
house
before
;
and
for
once
this
young
person
was
almost
provoked
to
be
angry
by
the
premature
arrival
of
Mr.
Sambo
with
her
shawl
.
George
came
and
took
a
tender
leave
of
her
the
next
morning
;
and
then
hurried
off
to
the
City
,
where
he
visited
Mr.
Chopper
,
his
father
's
head
man
,
and
received
from
that
gentleman
a
document
which
he
exchanged
at
Hulker
&
Bullock
's
for
a
whole
pocketful
of
money
.
As
George
entered
the
house
,
old
John
Sedley
was
passing
out
of
the
banker
's
parlour
,
looking
very
dismal
.
But
his
godson
was
much
too
elated
to
mark
the
worthy
stockbroker
's
depression
,
or
the
dreary
eyes
which
the
kind
old
gentleman
cast
upon
him
.
Young
Bullock
did
not
come
grinning
out
of
the
parlour
with
him
as
had
been
his
wont
in
former
years
.
