Gerard Godfrey was there, casting looks askance at the young Egremont, whom he regarded as a kind of robber. The marchesino asked from what class these young men were taken, and Mr. Dutton made reply that most of them were sons of professional men.
The remaining five hearers were average artisans of the inquiring type; they followed with perseverance, though at times one or the other would furtively regard his watch or allow his eyes to stray about the room. They had made a bargain, and were bent on honourably carrying out their share in it. But Egremont already began to doubt whether he was really fixing anything in their thoughts.
