It is plain, however, that the old Marshal, under the influence of wine, was at least quite as much to blame as the young Captain; and Sir Philip Sidney sufficiently showed his sense of the matter by being the bearer of Edward Norris's cartel.
"I hope you haven't been discharged." "No, it's not as bad as that, but I I don't know what to make of it, and that's a fact." The stock-clerk listened carefully to the story Richard had to tell. "Depend upon it there is something in the wind. You had better watch Norris; he may be getting you into trouble." "I half wish I had told the firm of Norris's actions," said Richard.

Merely to pay a flying visit there would be good. But his uncle held out an additional attraction.
