He got Lord Chaldon he's my Chairman, you know to bring him, and introduce him as his friend, and plead for him but I don't think all that, by itself, would have budged me an atom. But then the old man told how he was just able to scrape together money enough to buy the shares he needed, at the ruling price, and he happened to mention that his niece's marriage portion would have to be sacrificed.
Your Chairman, Lord Chaldon, who honours me so highly by calling me his friend he will assure you that we have a good name in the East. Our banks have befriended the people, and never oppressed or injured them. For that reason I will say perhaps for that reason we have never become a very rich house. It is possible to name bankers who have made large fortunes out of Egypt.
It seemed a long minute before he broke the tense silence by a sigh of discomfort. "I do not discuss these things with anybody," he said then, coldly. "If I had known who you were, I don't think you'd have got in." The Marquis of Chaldon intuitively straightened himself in his chair, and turned toward the speaker a glance of distressed surprise.
I'll have a transfer sent to you tomorrow, so that you can return those vendor's shares to me, and in exchange for them I'll give you two thousand fully-paid ordinary shares. You can sell these at once, if you like, or you can hold them on over one more settlement, whichever you please." "This is very munificent," remarked Lord Chaldon, after an instant's self-communion.
They now arrived at a ravine which lay on the outskirts of Chaldon, a village two miles on their way towards the point of the shore they sought. Lizzy broke the silence this time: 'I have to wait here to meet the carriers. I don't know if they have come yet. As I told you, we go to Lulstead Cove to-night, and it is two miles further than Ringsworth.
