Tighe & Co. would manage the "'change" subtleties of this without giving any one else a chance to bid, while at the same time making it appear an open-market transaction.

Ferdinand will never forsake me now." "Ferdinand! Leonora, I thought you cared for me." "Oh!" she said, "you young men of science are so conceited!"

At noon home to dinner, and then to the office again all day till almost midnight, and then, weary, home to supper and to bed. 5th.

We were interrupted by the Duke, who called Mr.
Povy; told him this; and then went and left my Privy Seale at my Lord Treasurer's; and so to the 'Change, and thence to Trinity-House; where a great dinner of Captain Crisp, who is made an Elder Brother.
