"Do you know why he is Baron Vorobioff?" said the advocate, noticing the slightly ironical stress that Nekhludoff put on this foreign title, followed by so very Russian a surname. "That was because the Emperor Paul rewarded the grandfather I think he was one of the Court footmen by giving him this title. He managed to please him in some way, so he made him a baron.
'It's my wish, so don't gainsay me! And so there's a Baron Vorobioff, and very proud of the title. He is a dreadful old humbug." "Well, I'm going to see him," said Nekhludoff. "That's good; we can go together. I shall give you a lift."
"Wolf is a Petersburg official; Skovorodnikoff is a theoretical, and Bay a practical lawyer, and therefore the most alive of them all," said the advocate. "There is most hope of him. Well, and how about the Petition Committee?" "Oh, I'm going to Baron Vorobioff to-day. I could not get an audience with him yesterday."
The murderer and the seconds were arrested, but it was said that though they were arrested and in the guardhouse they would be set free in a fortnight. From the Senate Nekhludoff drove to see an influential member of the petition Committee, Baron Vorobioff, who lived in a splendid house belonging to the Crown.
Why have they been keeping her?" "Oh, it's best not to look too deeply into it. Well, then, I shall give you a lift, if I may," said the advocate, as they left the house, and a fine carriage that the advocate had hired drove up to the door. "It's Baron Vorobioff you are going to see?"
