A sign of my own inwention, sir. Wery new, conwivial, and expressive!
''Cos a coachman's a privileged indiwidual, replied Mr. Weller, looking fixedly at his son. ''Cos a coachman may do vithout suspicion wot other men may not; 'cos a coachman may be on the wery amicablest terms with eighty mile o' females, and yet nobody think that he ever means to marry any vun among 'em.
