He was frightened by the storm and the darkness, and he was cold and tired, and a beacon light for the two wanderers in the storm was only a subterfuge whereby he might justify their return to camp. The understrapper understood, but he didn't disagree. They were two of a kind. It was not that they did not know their rightful course.
Fraught with this intelligence, the rancorous understrapper hied her home to the jeweller's wife, and made a faithful recital of what she had seen, communicating at the same time her own conjectures on that subject. Her employer was equally astonished and incensed at this information.
About Craig I'd like to oblige you, but well, you see, there is there are certain political exigencies " "Nonsense!" interrupted the old lady. "I know the relative importance of officials. A mere understrapper like Craig is of no importance." "The fact is," said Branch with great reluctance, "the President has taken a fancy to Craig."
Any understrapper M.P. would do well enough for carrying hints to a newspaper office, and I will not, even to secure the Duke, mix myself up with the newspapers. That work it is which has damned Croker, and I can't afford to sacrifice the advantage which I feel I have gained in these later years by abstaining altogether from partisan scribbling, or to subject the Quarterly to risk of damage.

"I'm going to have a talk with him myself."
'Nor Mr Grendall? The senior understrapper knew that Melmotte would have asked for 'his Secretary, and not for Mr Grendall, but for the rumours. It is so hard not to tumble into Scylla when you are avoiding Charybdis. Mr Grendall had not been there. Indeed, nobody had been there. 'In fact, there is nothing more to be done, I suppose? said Mr Melmotte.
'Dear me very awkward! said Stephen, rather en l'air, and confused with the kind of confusion that assails an understrapper when he has been enlarged by accident to the dimensions of a superior, and is somewhat rudely pared down to his original size. 'What is awkward? said Miss Swancourt.
"Brute!" said the doctor, "it's some beast of an understrapper. He might have let them in, anyway. I'll see the head turnkey." "Isn't it terribly sad?" replied Mrs. French. The doctor rang the bell at the jail door, prepared for battle. "I want to see Mr. Cowan." The guard glanced past the doctor, saw the shrinking group behind him and gruffly announced, "This is not the hour for visitors."
