And he sought his fellows and his foster-brothers, and took counsel with them what he should do in this matter.
In his absence our friend here was born and at the same time, sad to say, his mother died. The child was brought up by Harborough's mother Mr. Wraythwaite and Harborough are foster-brothers. It remained in the care of Harborough's mother who kept the secret of the marriage until it was seven years old. Then, opportunity occurring, it was taken to its father in Australia.
Was this a man, think ye, in the ordinary course of nature to beget ten long lanky children, nine of whom might have been first cousins of Lucifer, and foster-brothers of Beelzebub? 'It was hard upon him, remarked Reuben. 'On him! Nay, the hardship was all with us.
