And if you leave, and the money does not come, I shall give information to the police." "That's fair enough," said Buller; "take the chance, Saurin, if you are not a fool." And the others assented. Not one of them had any doubt as to Saurin's guilt: his confusion and equivocation condemned him. "What a cool fish you were to suggest that Crawley might have spent the money himself!" said Gould.
In the Memoirs of the Reformation in France prefixed to Saurin's Sermons, it is stated that eight hundred thousand were banished from France, and that they carried with them more than twenty millions of property. The refugees charged their sufferings on the RELIGION of Rome, for Pope Innocent XI highly approved of this persecution.
His uncle had intended to go abroad and take him with him, but this intention was frustrated by an attack of gout, which kept him to his country home, where his nephew had to spend the entire vacation, and he found it the reverse of lively. Sir Richard Saurin's house stood in the midst of a well-timbered park, and there were some spinneys belonging to the place also.
The hint took; old Slam was intrusted with Edwards' watch that evening, and shortly afterwards with Saurin's; and later on with all the pins and rings they possessed, though these were not worth much. This may all sound accountable in Edwards, who was so weak and soft; but Saurin, though vicious, was no fool, and such excessively absurd conduct may appear to you inconsistent with his character.
This opinion was further strengthened presently, for Crawley, seeing his antagonist panting, thought that at last he might get on equal terms with him, and rushed in to fight at close quarters, but he was met by a straight blow from Saurin's left fist right between the eyes, which knocked him fairly down on the broad of his back, where he lay quite dazed for a moment, till Robarts and Buller assisted him to his corner.
From the throbbing of his temples when the idea occurred to him he thought it doubtful. No, he must not see him. "How on earth did you find it out?" cried the others to Crawley when Saurin's footstep died away on the staircase. "I have promised not to name my witnesses unless it is necessary to call them forward," replied Crawley.
