CURTISS. And of the eternal muttony-chop in the morning. DOONE. It's dead goat as a rule, but go on, Mackesy. MACKESY. If a man's once taken that way nothing will hold him. Do you remember Benoit of your service, Doone? They transferred him to Tharanda when his time came, and he married a platelayer's daughter, or something of that kind. She was the only female about the place.
Yes, I should decidedly like to be Gaddy. MACKESY. He'll go Home after he's married, and send in his papers see if he doesn't. BLAYNE. Why shouldn't he? Hasn't he money? Would any one of us be here if we weren't paupers? DOONE. Poor old pauper! What has became of the six hundred you rooked from our table last month? BLAYNE. It took unto itself wings.
BLAYNE. Gaddy has money lucky devil. Place at Home, too. DOONE. He comes of first-class stock. No offence to you, Blayne. But Gaddy was such a superior animal as a rule.

And I know he has nothing more than a wet-weather tummy if he could only keep a hand on himself. BLAYNE. That's bad. That's very bad. Poor little Miggy. Good little chap, too. I say ANTHONY. What do you say?
BLAYNE. Well, look here anyhow. If it's like that as you say I say fifty. CURTISS. I say fifty. MACKESY. I go twenty better. DOONE. Bloated Croesus of the Bar! I say fifty. Jervoise, what do you say? Hi! Wake up! JERVOISE. Eh? What's that? What's that? CURTISS. We want a hundred rupees from you. You're a bachelor drawing a gigantic income, and there's a man in a hole. JERVOISE. What man?
He recalled that in the days when be wore trousers he had been Chief Engineer of the Haliotis. "Harland, Mackesy, Noble, Hay, Naughton, Fink, O'Hara, Trumbull." "Here, sir!"
