Our friend laughed in self-derision, as he went on.
Richardson £50 a year for a grass farm, and about £12 for meadows, as well as £30 a year more for a grass farm to an adjoining landlord. Another tenant who held a farm at £13, 5s. a year declared he could only pay £6, 12s. 6d., or a half-year's rent, if he got an abatement of £1, 6s. 6d.
Meantime, that's the first half-year's allowance' laying a cheque upon the table 'and the first thing to be done is to leave this place and come straightway to my house until you can look about you and settle where to live. 'You are just as generous and just as imperious as you always were, said Miss Grammont. 'We will come this day week. 'Come now, said Mr. Gregory.
