"You are perfectly right, sir," interrupted I. "I am the rogue who presented the letter from Lord Windermear, and who presents you with another from the same person; do me the favour to read it, while I take a chair." "Upon my soul you impudent handsome dog, I must say great pity come for money, I suppose. Well, it's a sad world," muttered the lawyer as he broke open the letter of Lord Windermear.
I had been deeply thinking upon the kind offers of Lord Windermear, and had felt that they would interfere with the primum mobile of my existence, and I was reflecting by what means I could evade their kind intentions, and be at liberty to follow my own inclinations, when this note arrived. To me it appeared to be the height of injustice.
You will have the patronage of Lord Windermear, which will always secure you a position in society, and the good wishes of all, although, I grant, that such worldly people as Lady Maelstrom may strike your name off their porter's list.
"Your affectionate Uncle, "Windermear." "One thing is very clear, Timothy," said I, laying the letter on the table, "that it cannot be intended for me." "How do you know, sir, that this lord is not your uncle? At all events, you must do as he bids you." "What go for the papers! most certainly I shall not."
"I had a few lines from Lord Windermear, enclosing your letter." "He is well, I hope." "Quite well, I believe." Mr Masterton then rose, went to an iron safe, and brought out a packet of papers, which he put into my hands. "You will read these with interest, Mr Neville.
He told me that from Mr Masterton he had learnt that Lady de Clare and Fleta had called upon him very much afflicted with the contents of my letter that Lord Windermear also had been very much vexed and annoyed that Mr Masterton had advised him to obtain another situation as a valet, which he had refused, and, at the same time, told him his intention of searching for me.

"Put five shillings in the box for swearing, Mr B . You fine other people," said the major. "Here is my other confederate, Lord Windermear." "Carbonnell," said Lord Windermear, "what is all this?" "Nothing, my lord, except that our friend Newland is taken up for shoplifting, because he thought proper to run after a pretty woman's carriage; and I am accused by his worship of being his confederate.
I return you a thousand thanks for your kind expressions and good-will; but I cannot, at present, avail myself of them. I beg your lordship's pardon, but did you ever meet the lady with the ear-rings?" Lord Windermear smiled.
You may go now, thought I, I feel quite safe. It was about five days after his departure, as I was sauntering, arm and arm, with the major, who generally dined with me about five days in the week, that I perceived the carriage of Lord Windermear, with his lordship in it.
