Mac-Morlan, with one single proviso, that, though he himself should be obliged again to go to India, every debt justly and honourably due by his father should be made good to the claimant. Mannering, who heard this declaration, grasped him kindly by the hand, and from that moment might be dated a thorough understanding between them.
She did, indeed, in the course of the evening ask Mr. Mac-Morlan, as if by accident, what might be the annual income of the Hazlewood property; but shall we therefore aver for certain that she was considering whether an heiress of four hundred a year might be a suitable match for the young Laird? For I must speak in passion, and I will do it in King Cambyses' vein. Henry IV, part I.
On the other hand, to bring a tailor to measure him, and send home his clothes, as for a schoolboy, would probably give offence. At length Mac-Morlan resolved to consult Miss Bertram, and request her interference. She assured him, that though she could not pretend to superintend a gentleman's wardrobe, nothing was more easy than to arrange the Dominie's.
Mac-Morlan, who came to attend his guest to his house, Dominie Sampson, and Miss Bertram. 'And now, said the poor girl, 'I must bid farewell to one of my oldest and kindest friends.

Mac-Morlan will stare when he sees the bill. 'Never fear, said the Colonel, 'we'll face the shock, and entertain the county at my friend Mrs. Mac-Candlish's to boot.
Charles Hazlewood in that particular resembleth me, Mr. Mac-Morlan. 'O ho! thought Mac-Morlan, 'sits the wind in that quarter? I've heard something like this before. He then began to consider what conduct was safest for his protegee, and even for himself; for the senior Mr.
'Has he made his escape, or will he be able to do so? Have these men watched, who never watched before, in order to complete my ruin?
