Harry Beaver stood irresolutely for a moment, and violently shook his fist at the man standing in the door. "Y-You'll p-p-pay for this!" He spit out words and cinders with gasping breath. Captain Pott went inside. He washed his breakfast dishes. He was by no means as calm as he appeared. The whole day through he fed the fires of his anger. That night he urged the minister to stay at home.
The activities of Bacon from 1591 to 1605; the strain on that man's mind and heart, especially his heart, when we remember that he had to prosecute his passionately adored Essex to the death; all this makes it seem, to me, improbable that, as Mrs. Pott and her school of Baconians hold, he lived to be at least a hundred and six, if not much older.
The Cambridge three-quarters got the ball, and after a round of passing one of them got a try right behind our posts. Adamson promptly told me that it was my fault, but as a matter of fact Pott had slipped up at a critical moment and left his man unmarked, so I did not get much chance of preventing the try.
A servant opened the door. "I want to see Mr. Fox." "He's not in, sir. Will you leave any " "Who is it, Debbs?" called a voice from the top of the stair. "Captain Pott, sir. I thought you was to see no one to-night, sir." "That's all right. Send him right up to my room." The Elder's den was across the hall from his daughter's room, in the most quiet part of the house.

Beaver did a corkscrew dance, and tried in vain to release the hold on his collar. "Cap'n Pott!" exclaimed the surprised minister who noticed for the first time that the seaman was holding Mr. Beaver. "What on earth are you doing?" "Well, this little shrimp was mighty interested in the boxing, and I thought he might as well come down for a few lessons that he wouldn't forget right off.
'Nobody but you, retorted Mrs. Pott, with asperity. 'You see, Mr. Pickwick, said the host in explanation of his wife's lament, 'that we are in some measure cut off from many enjoyments and pleasures of which we might otherwise partake. My public station, as editor of the Eatanswill GAZETTE, the position which that paper holds in the country, my constant immersion in the vortex of politics
'Look here, ma'am "Lines to a Brass Pot." "Brass Pot"; that's me, ma'am. "False SHE'D have grown"; that's you, ma'am you. With this ebullition of rage, which was not unaccompanied with something like a tremble, at the expression of his wife's face, Mr. Pott dashed the current number of the Eatanswill INDEPENDENT at her feet.

This was rich enough, and he came back to the same topic towards the end of the book. It will be remembered Mr. Pott went to Mrs. Leo Hunter's Fete in the character of a Russian with a knout in his hand.
'What an impudent blunderer this fellow is, said Pott, turning from pink to crimson. 'Did you ever read any of this man's foolery, Sir? inquired Slurk of Bob Sawyer. 'Never, replied Bob; 'is it very bad? 'Oh, shocking! shocking! rejoined Slurk. 'Really! Dear me, this is too atrocious! exclaimed Pott, at this juncture; still feigning to be absorbed in his reading.
