Dillingham, Quib," said Gottlieb as I one day unexpectedly entered the latter's office. "We have a matter on hand in which he is interested." "Glad to know you, Mr. Quibble," quoth the client, extending a rather soft hand. "Your name is well known to me, although I have never personally had the pleasure of your acquaintance."
"Just look into the water, my little miss, and tell me whether you look as you used to." "Then you would say, Mr. Gottlieb, that by some magic spell you have driven away Miss Sophia's gloominess?" "Yes, I can say Miss Sophia's also." "Also? that is a bold speech!" "Are you angry?" "Oh, Gottlieb!" "Ah, Miss Nanna. Are you weeping?" "Mr.
When Father Gottlieb did so, the other whispered in his ear: "There is a time to weep and a time for action. Now is the time for action. Unloosen quickly the bonds around me, and slip this noose from my neck." Father Gottlieb acquitted himself of his task as well as his agitation and trembling hands would let him.

Nanna again clasped her hands, and this action and the mournful expression of her countenance spoke more than words could have expressed. "Will you miss me, Nanna?" "Always." "And perhaps wish we had never met?" inquired Gottlieb earnestly. "Ah, no," replied Nanna warmly, "the remembrance of you will perhaps work a happier future for me than I would have had without it."
"Well, well," exclaimed Magde, "we can well compare Mr. H to a hare. But Mr. Gottlieb, whatever chance brought you here, do not bring sorrow upon him, by speaking to his wife of this adventure." "Fear not, Mrs.
The most I have ever done has been to show some of my clients how to do in a perfectly legal manner that which had heretofore been unlawful." "Yea, Gottlieb," remarked Billington. "And many things that before were accounted faults have now, thanks to you, become virtues."
