Baynard prefers a boy from the country," said the Doctor, "as he has had some rather unpleasant experiences with city boys; and it occurred to me that you might be willing your son should give the place a trial. I wish not to influence you too much: but I know Mr. Baynard well; and if I wished a situation for my own son I know of no place which would please me better."

Baynard requested me to accompany him to the library, where he passed much of his leisure time, and he talked to me kindly and earnestly, informing me what would be expected of me, and giving me instructions regarding the duties of my position.
Of course I had no objection to offer, and the Doctor wrote, informing Mr. Baynard that I would be there in two weeks time. The time passed quickly away, and I again left home. The Doctor had written to my employer informing him on what day he might expect my arrival.
Granger's carriage come back, Saunders?" he asked. "Yes, sir; the carriage has been back a quarter of an hour. I were out with my mistress." "Where is Mrs. Granger? In her own rooms?"
