That gentleman was much pleased at the discovery, and said, "Ah, but who employed him? That is what you must discover." "I will try," said Henry. "The poor fellow had half a mind to make a clean breast; but I didn't like to worry him over it." Returning home he fell in with Grotait and Parkin.
They'd rather let 'em go at a sacrifice! Well, then he got to reading the other side of the question, and old Ormiston lent him Parkin, and he lent old Ormiston Goldwin Smith, and then he subscribed to the Times for six months the bill must have nearly bust him; and then the squire went over without waiting for him and without any assistance from the Times either; and finally well, he says that if it's good enough business for the people of England it's good enough business for him.
They then parted; and Henry, as he returned home, thanked Bayne heartily. He said this second L15 had been a bitter pill at first; but now he was glad he had offered it. "I would not leave Hillsborough for fifteen hundred pounds." Two days after this promising interview with Mr. Parkin, Henry received a note, the envelope of which showed him it came from Mr. Jobson.
She liked Lettice the better of the two girls. "Will you?" cried Lettice delightedly. "Then I will go and ask for something nice for you. I am sure Parkin will give me something if I promise her my little pansy brooch;" and off she went, returning a moment later with a plateful of huge slices of orange cake. Kitty looked at the slices in dismay. "I can't eat a whole one," she said.
Parkin and Jobson had so little confidence in this argument, which is equivalent to saying there is no such thing as cunning in trade, that they employed a third party to advance it with all the weight of his popularity and seeming impartiality. But who is this candid person that objects to assume the judge, and assumes the judge?
Parkin, with an air of friendly interest. Bayne smiled, not graciously, but sourly. "Come, come, sir, that is a farce you and I have worn out this ten years.
Now sit down, and give them treacle for their honey or you'll catch pepper." Henry groaned, and writhed, but obeyed. He had written his defiance in three minutes. It took him an hour to produce the following: "DEAR SIR, I am sorry for the misunderstanding. I did not, for a moment, attach that meaning to any thing that fell either from you or Mr. Parkin.
"Didn't you get the message about dinner?" said Lady Grosville. Then, as he shook his head: "Very remiss of Parkin. I always tell him he loses his head directly the party goes into double figures. We had to put off dinner a quarter of an hour because of Kitty Bristol, who missed her train at St. Pancras, and only arrived half an hour ago.
He was only the tool of much worse villains; base, cowardly, sneaking villains. Those I shall not forgive. Oh, I shall know all about it before long. Good-morning." This information and threat, and the vindictive bitterness and resolution with which the young man had delivered it, struck terror into the gentle Parkin, and shook even Grotait.
Be sure and say it is for Kitty." "Can't you go yourself?" asked Maude. "Parkin is in a fearful temper with me because I told mother about her giving things to Reuben." "Bother! You are always rubbing the servants the wrong way. I let them do as they like, for the sake of keeping them amiable.
