"So it would," replied Tim, his countenance falling; "well, I never thought of that." "I have thought of much more, Tim; recollect I must, in a very short time, be exposed to Lord Windermear, for the real Mr Neville will soon come home." "Good heavens! what will become of us?" replied Timothy, with alarm in his countenance.
I am avoided by all who know me thrown out of all society I have not a parent or a relative. Isolated being as I am, what have I to live for?" "My dear fellow, you are not twenty-three years of age," replied Mr Masterton, "and you have made two sincere friends, both powerful in their own way. I mean Lord Windermear and myself; and you have had the pleasure of making others happy.
The Major then wrote a note to Lord Windermear, which he despatched by Timothy, who, hearing I was in trouble, had accompanied the Major. And while he was away, the Major and I sat down, he giving himself all manner of airs, much to the annoyance of the magistrate, who at last threatened to commit him immediately. "You'll repent this," replied the Major, who perceived Lord Windermear coming in.
As for sending to Lord Windermear, Mr Masterton, or those who formerly were acquainted with me, my pride forbade it I would sooner have perished on the scaffold.
"Indeed, sir," replied I, laughing; "I must apologise to you for my father's conduct." "Never mind, Japhet; I don't care about a trifle; but why don't you ask after your friends?" "I have longed so to do, sir," replied I. "Lord Windermear " "Is quite well, and will be most happy to see you." "Lady de Clare, and her daughter "
"That may be very true, Mr Newland; but if I am to consider you as my protege, and I may add the protege of Lord Windermear, I must make you quite honest I will be no party to fraud in any shape. Are you prepared to resign your borrowed plumes, and appear before the world as you really are?" "There is but one inducement, sir, for me to wish that the world may still deceive themselves.
I am avoided by all who know me thrown out of all society I have not a parent or a relative. Isolated being as I am, what have I to live for?" "My dear fellow, you are not twenty-three years of age," replied Mr Masterton, "and you have made two sincere friends, both powerful in their own way. I mean Lord Windermear and myself: and you have had the pleasure of making others happy.
I will take it down, in case I have to write to you. Your address is " "Piazza Covent Garden." Mr Masterton took my name and address, I took the papers, and then we both took leave of one another, with many expressions of pleasure and good-will. I returned to the hotel, where I found Timothy waiting for me, with impatience. "Japhet," said he, "Lord Windermear has not yet left town.
After having disposed of what was of no service to me, I found that, deducting the thousand pounds paid into the banker's, for Lord Windermear, I had a little above three thousand pounds in ready money, and what to do with this I could not well decide.
"Nothing can hurt you, Tim, the anger will be all upon me; but I am prepared to face it, and I would face twice as much for the distant hope of finding my father. Whatever Lord Windermear may feel inclined to do, he can do nothing; and my possession of the secret will ensure even more than my safety; it will afford me his protection, if I demand it."
