First, Mordicai went to law, to prove I was in a conspiracy with your father, pretending to be prior creditor, to keep him off and out of his own; which, after a world of swearing and law -law always takes time to do justice, that's one comfort the villain proved at last to be true enough, and so cast us; and I was forced to be paid off last week.
'Don't let 'em let anybody in, for your life, Colambre; under any pretence, cried Lord Clonbrony, calling from the head of the stairs; then running to the window, 'By all that's good, it's Mordicai himself! and the people with him. 'Lean your head on me, my dear aunt, said Miss Nugent. Lady Clonbrony leant back, trembling, and ready to faint.
Ay, you've been so long at Cambridge, I forgot. And did you never see Terry? 'I have seen him, sir I met him yesterday at Mr. Mordicai's, the coachmaker's. 'Mordicai's! exclaimed Lord Clonbrony, with a sudden blush, which he endeavoured to hide by taking snuff. 'He is a damned rascal, that Mordicai! I hope you didn't believe a word he said nobody does that knows him.
Then I took coach in state, the first I met, and away with me to Long Acre saw Mordicai.
In a few minutes the account was reduced to a reasonable form, and, in consideration of the partner's having made the bargain, by which Mr. Mordicai felt himself influenced in honour, though not bound in law, he undertook to have the curricle made better than new again, for Mr. Berryl, for twenty guineas.

'Sir Terence, I value neither your threats nor your cunning. Good morning to you. 'Good morning to you, Mr. Mordicai but not kindly! Mr. Edwards, the solicitor, has been at the office to take off the execution; so now you may have law to your heart's content!

I hope you didn't believe a word he said nobody does that knows him."
Ay, there's the rascal Mordicai walking off, at the end of the street; I know his walk a mile off. Gad! I can breathe again. I am glad he's gone. "Slide in! Oh, horrid!" cried Lady Clonbrony, sitting up, and wiping away the water which Miss Nugent had sprinkled on her face.
"And Terry," said Lord Clonbrony, "will win his wager from Mordicai." "Terry!" repeated Lady Clonbrony, "that odious Terry! I hope, my lord, that he is not to be one of my comforts in Ireland." "No, my dear mother; he is much better provided for than we could have expected. One of my father's first objects was to prevent him from being any encumbrance to you.
"It's all in vain," cried Lord Clonbrony; "I have no resource but one, and I must condescend now to go to him this minute, for Mordicai will be back and seize all I must sign and leave all to Garraghty."
