Thence alone to several places about my law businesses, and with good success; at last I to Mr. Townsend at the Wardrobe, and received kind words from him to be true to me against Captain Ferrers his endeavours to get the place from my father as my Lord hath promised him. Here met Will.
So that as I did nothing so they are able to bear witness that I had no opportunity there to do anything. At home dined, and all the afternoon at a Committee of the Chest, and at night comes my aunt and uncle Wight and Nan Ferrers and supped merrily with me, my uncle coming in an hour after them almost foxed. Great pleasure by discourse with them, and so, they gone, late to bed. 21st.
But he felt, almost for the first time, that Ferrers was a man to get on in the world and he sighed; I hope it was for the world's sake. After a short conversation on indifferent matters, Cleveland was announced; and Ferrers, who could make nothing out of Cleveland, soon withdrew. Ferrers was now becoming an economist in his time.
I to the Wardrobe to dinner, and there staid most of the afternoon very merry with the ladies. Then Captain Ferrers and I to the Theatre, and there came too late, so we staid and saw a bit of "Victoria," which pleased me worse than it did the other day.
The very greatness of his aspirations, his indignant and scornful pride, lift him above the thought of your wealth, your rank, except as means to an end." "You mistake still," said Florence, faintly smiling, but turning pale. "No," resumed Ferrers, not appearing to hear her, and as if pursuing his own thoughts.

Pierce and Mrs. Ferrers come to see my wife. I staid a little with them, being full of business, and so to the office, where busy till late at night and so weary and a little conscious of my failures to-day, yet proud that the day is over without more observation on Sir W.

"Not as long as you may think," laughed Gage harshly. "We've got you now, and we'll get Hazelton and Jim Ferrers, next thing you know.
Templeton." "Ehem," said Mr. Templeton, clearing his throat, and with a slight but embarrassed smile, "I never thought I should marry again." "L'homme propose et Dieu dispose," observed Lumley Ferrers; for it was he. "Gently, my dear nephew," replied Mr. Templeton, gravely; "those phrases are somewhat sacrilegious; I am an old-fashioned person, you know." "Ten thousand apologies."
Leon soon had a steaming hot supper on the table. First of all, Reade swallowed a cupful of coffee. Then he began his supper. "I wonder if Ferrers can get back tonight?" Tom mused, after the meal. "He might, but a doctor couldn't get here tonight, unless he, too, could move fast on skis," Leon replied. "Anyway, I'm not as worried as I was," sighed Reade. The door opened, and Alf Drew entered.
the first that I have had time to see since my coming from sea, "The Loyall Subject," where one Kinaston, a boy, acted the Duke's sister, but made the loveliest lady that ever I saw in my life, only her voice not very good. After the play done, we three went to drink, and by Captain Ferrers' means, Kinaston and another that acted Archas, the General, came and drank with us.
