"To be sure, sir, and a very proper attitude. I plunge, then, into the middle of affairs. You will doubtless remember Silvanus Tellworthy, younger brother of the late Sir Jabez Tellworthy whose virtues recently ceased to adorn this neighbourhood." "Perfectly." "His conscience led him to exchange this country, in the thirty-fifth year of his age, for a soil more amical to his religious opinions."
Admiral Blake and Sir Christopher Mings had turned them into tough fighters by sea; and Margaret Tellworthy had completed their education ashore, and made them better friends by rejecting both. In an access of misogyny they had planned and built their blue pavilions, beside the London road, vowing to shut themselves up and look on no woman again.
My friend, Silvanus Tellworthy, remembered you as a friend of his early days and as a man of probity. He had heard also, from time to time, news of your public actions that increased his esteem. He was informed pardon me if I mention it of your sincere and honourable affection for his niece; and, indeed, hoped, I may say " "No more on that point, if you please."
Eastwell was snatched away by a chain-shot in the affair with the Smyrna fleet; and Mistress Salt that was daughter of old Sir Jabez Tellworthy, and broke her father's heart she's a widow in straitened circumstances, and living up at the old house again " "What!" Captain Barker bounced off his chair like a dried pea from a shovel. "There now! Your honour's chin is wounded."
He was a childless man, and, with the exception of some trifling legacies to the town of Boston and a few private friends, bequeathed his wealth to his only niece, Margaret, daughter of the Sir Jabez Tellworthy already mentioned, and her heirs." Captain Runacles uncrossed his legs and addressed Dr. Beckerleg. "Doctor, haven't you brought this gentleman to the wrong pavilion?" "Wait a moment."
