It's not the question whether he gets into debt, but whether he does mischief with what he spends. If Algy's a bad fish, Ned's a bit of a serpent; damned clever, no doubt. I suppose, you wouldn't let him marry old Fleming's daughter, now, if he wanted to?" "Who is Fleming?" Sir William thundered out. "Fleming's the father of the girl. I'm sorry for him.
