As for the first novel, he sent it to his mother, to dispose of as best she could; and it never brought him anything, except a perception that it was considered by his friends to be "an unfortunate aggravation of the family disease." During the ensuing ten years, this view seemed to be not unreasonable, for, in all that time, though he worked hard, he earned by literature no more than L55.
L55.0.0. for the lot. 'Um! That the lower you can do it for, eh? 'That's the lowest. I've figured it out most carefully, the time and materials, and that's practically all I'm charging you. The truth of the matter was that Rushton had had nothing whatever to do with estimating the cost of this work: he had not the necessary knowledge to do so.
In a blue book on wages and production, issued from the Board of Trade in 1891, it was stated that for every L100 received in mining, L55 went in labor; of every L100 in shipbuilding, L37 went in labor; of every L100 in railways, L31 went in labor; of every L100 in cotton manufacturies, L29 went in labor; but of every L100 in brewing, L7 only goes into the pocket of the workman.

'I think we could arrange it all right, don't you? Sweater went on. 'Anyhow, the work will have to be done, so you'd better let 'em get on with it. L55.0.0. covers both jobs, you say? 'Yes. 'Oh, all right, you get on with it and we'll see what can be done with the Corporation later on.

Mr Sweater being a public-spirited man proposed to hand this connecting drain which ran through a private road over to the Corporation to be theirs and their successors for ever, on condition that they would pay him the cost of construction L55 and agreed to keep it in proper repair.
