Jacques was growing troublesome--very
troublesome indeed" Mr. Wynyard groaned.
"There is only one onsolation-Penelope
Croft's money is all safe, said he Hargrove
slipped his braney-and- "That is safe,
and not shilling of 1t shall ever &c risled.
l wish she were of age, and were quit OF
the burthen. 1t has been care and tempt
alton to me from the beginning; but / am
thinkful now l listened to Mary-what aOiit
she do, what will she dol Poor Mary!"
Two things Mr.. Hargrove never did. He
never used conventional phrases of piety,
and he never told a lie to no purpose. Had
he been inclined TO put a gloss no untoward
events, he might have reminded Mr.. Wynn
yard how the wind is tempered to shorn
lambs, but that was not his present object
He had brought him abroad and II was his
business to impress on him the necessity of
staying there until the inclement wind
changed into milder quarter. Perhaps he
had interests of his own to serve in that, as
well as interests of his employer
He REQUIRED to the subject of Mr.. Wyn-
yards ward. ''Jonathan Croft gave his
daughter long day to wait for her coming
of age-fve -and-twenty."
g But she may marry before, and that
would release me. AT tive-and-twenty, if
she remain single, she is her own mistress,
to set up an Independent establishment, and
to live where she likes hope she will
marry"
She is well weighted l am not sure
though, thai some OF her money is not worse
invested than ii would be in Arkindale.
Those West Lancashire railway shares, for
instance"
"They are good shares enough. AS for
Arkindale, wish it were at the bottom of
the sea. That has been my misfortune
Arkindale will drag down Eastwood"
You are wrong, sir, you are wrong there
I'll back Arkindale to do as well or better
yet than ever the old Crossfell pits did. And
you are wrong, too, in not employing your
wards money to better advantage for her
Her money is where her father wished
il to be, chiefly in the Three per Cents, and
there it shall remain. Mind, IIargrove, |
will not have it mcddlcd with, whatever
might be rescued by il. NV own and nv
children's-that is wreck enough. If her
fortune were in it, too, that would be dis
honour-that would he rogucry.' Mr. Wyn-
ward smoke with excitement. tbc lnwver sin.
