Undecimus Scott was the eleventh son of the Lord Gaberlunzie. Lord Gaberlunzie was the representative of a very old and very noble race, more conspicuous, however, at the present time for its age and nobility than for its wealth. The Hon. Undecimus, therefore, learnt, on arriving at manhood, that he was heir only to the common lot of mortality, and that he had to earn his own bread.
Why, oh, why does he not sit down? why, O Undy, does he thus stand, looking at the surface of the table on which he is leaning? 'And now, he said, 'he had another proposition to make; and that was that Mr. Undecimus Scott should also be expelled from the club, and having so spoken, in a voice of unusual energy, he then sat down.
'Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil! Let that petition come forth from a man's heart, a true and earnest prayer, and he will be so led that he shall not hear the charmer, let him charm ever so wisely. 'Twas but a thin veil that the Hon. Undecimus Scott threw over the bait with which he fished for the honesty of Alaric Tudor, and yet it sufficed.
The main effect which such selection had upon our story rises from the circumstance that it led to an introduction between Tudor and the Honourable Undecimus Scott, and that this introduction brought about a close alliance.
