"
You
made
acquaintance
with
my
son
,
sir
,
"
said
the
old
man
,
in
his
chirping
way
,
while
he
warmed
his
hands
at
the
blaze
,
"
at
his
office
,
I
expect
?
"
I
nodded
.
"
Hah
!
I
have
heerd
that
my
son
is
a
wonderful
hand
at
his
business
,
sir
?
"
I
nodded
hard
.
"
Yes
;
so
they
tell
me
.
His
business
is
the
Law
?
"
I
nodded
harder
.
"
Which
makes
it
more
surprising
in
my
son
,
"
said
the
old
man
,
"
for
he
was
not
brought
up
to
the
Law
,
but
to
the
Wine
–
Coopering
.
"
Curious
to
know
how
the
old
gentleman
stood
informed
concerning
the
reputation
of
Mr
.
Jaggers
,
I
roared
that
name
at
him
.
He
threw
me
into
the
greatest
confusion
by
laughing
heartily
and
replying
in
a
very
sprightly
manner
,
"
No
,
to
be
sure
;
you
’
re
right
.
"
And
to
this
hour
I
have
not
the
faintest
notion
what
he
meant
,
or
what
joke
he
thought
I
had
made
.
As
I
could
not
sit
there
nodding
at
him
perpetually
,
without
making
some
other
attempt
to
interest
him
,
I
shouted
at
inquiry
whether
his
own
calling
in
life
had
been
"
the
Wine
–
Coopering
.
"
By
dint
of
straining
that
term
out
of
myself
several
times
and
tapping
the
old
gentleman
on
the
chest
to
associate
it
with
him
,
I
at
last
succeeded
in
making
my
meaning
understood
.
"
No
,
"
said
the
old
gentleman
;
"
the
warehousing
,
the
warehousing
.
First
,
over
yonder
;
"
he
appeared
to
mean
up
the
chimney
,
but
I
believe
he
intended
to
refer
me
to
Liverpool
;
"
and
then
in
the
City
of
London
here
.
However
,
having
an
infirmity
—
for
I
am
hard
of
hearing
,
sir
—
"
I
expressed
in
pantomime
the
greatest
astonishment
.
"
—
Yes
,
hard
of
hearing
;
having
that
infirmity
coming
upon
me
,
my
son
he
went
into
the
Law
,
and
he
took
charge
of
me
,
and
he
by
little
and
little
made
out
this
elegant
and
beautiful
property
.
But
returning
to
what
you
said
,
you
know
,
"
pursued
the
old
man
,
again
laughing
heartily
,
"
what
I
say
is
,
No
to
be
sure
;
you
’
re
right
.
"
I
was
modestly
wondering
whether
my
utmost
ingenuity
would
have
enabled
me
to
say
anything
that
would
have
amused
him
half
as
much
as
this
imaginary
pleasantry
,
when
I
was
startled
by
a
sudden
click
in
the
wall
on
one
side
of
the
chimney
,
and
the
ghostly
tumbling
open
of
a
little
wooden
flap
with
"
JOHN
"
upon
it
.
The
old
man
,
following
my
eyes
,
cried
with
great
triumph
,
"
My
son
’
s
come
home
!
"
and
we
both
went
out
to
the
drawbridge
.
It
was
worth
any
money
to
see
Wemmick
waving
a
salute
to
me
from
the
other
side
of
the
moat
,
when
we
might
have
shaken
hands
across
it
with
the
greatest
ease
.
The
Aged
was
so
delighted
to
work
the
drawbridge
,
that
I
made
no
offer
to
assist
him
,
but
stood
quiet
until
Wemmick
had
come
across
,
and
had
presented
me
to
Miss
Skiffins
;
a
lady
by
whom
he
was
accompanied
.
