Secondly
,
and
lastly
,
what
do
you
want
to
know
?
’
Mr
Pancks
fished
up
his
note
-
book
before
the
question
was
put
,
and
buttoning
it
with
care
in
an
inner
breast
-
pocket
,
and
looking
straight
at
Clennam
all
the
time
,
replied
with
a
pause
and
a
puff
,
‘
I
want
supplementary
information
of
any
sort
.
’
Clennam
could
not
withhold
a
smile
,
as
the
panting
little
steam
-
tug
,
so
useful
to
that
unwieldy
ship
,
the
Casby
,
waited
on
and
watched
him
as
if
it
were
seeking
an
opportunity
of
running
in
and
rifling
him
of
all
he
wanted
before
he
could
resist
its
manoeuvres
;
though
there
was
that
in
Mr
Pancks
’
s
eagerness
,
too
,
which
awakened
many
wondering
speculations
in
his
mind
.
After
a
little
consideration
,
he
resolved
to
supply
Mr
Pancks
with
such
leading
information
as
it
was
in
his
power
to
impart
him
;
well
knowing
that
Mr
Pancks
,
if
he
failed
in
his
present
research
,
was
pretty
sure
to
find
other
means
of
getting
it
.
He
,
therefore
,
first
requesting
Mr
Pancks
to
remember
his
voluntary
declaration
that
his
proprietor
had
no
part
in
the
disclosure
,
and
that
his
own
intentions
were
good
(
two
declarations
which
that
coaly
little
gentleman
with
the
greatest
ardour
repeated
)
,
openly
told
him
that
as
to
the
Dorrit
lineage
or
former
place
of
habitation
,
he
had
no
information
to
communicate
,
and
that
his
knowledge
of
the
family
did
not
extend
beyond
the
fact
that
it
appeared
to
be
now
reduced
to
five
members
;
namely
,
to
two
brothers
,
of
whom
one
was
single
,
and
one
a
widower
with
three
children
.
The
ages
of
the
whole
family
he
made
known
to
Mr
Pancks
,
as
nearly
as
he
could
guess
at
them
;
and
finally
he
described
to
him
the
position
of
the
Father
of
the
Marshalsea
,
and
the
course
of
time
and
events
through
which
he
had
become
invested
with
that
character
.
To
all
this
,
Mr
Pancks
,
snorting
and
blowing
in
a
more
and
more
portentous
manner
as
he
became
more
interested
,
listened
with
great
attention
;
appearing
to
derive
the
most
agreeable
sensations
from
the
painfullest
parts
of
the
narrative
,
and
particularly
to
be
quite
charmed
by
the
account
of
William
Dorrit
’
s
long
imprisonment
.
‘
In
conclusion
,
Mr
Pancks
,
’
said
Arthur
,
‘
I
have
but
to
say
this
.
I
have
reasons
beyond
a
personal
regard
for
speaking
as
little
as
I
can
of
the
Dorrit
family
,
particularly
at
my
mother
’
s
house
’
(
Mr
Pancks
nodded
)
,
‘
and
for
knowing
as
much
as
I
can
.
So
devoted
a
man
of
business
as
you
are
—
eh
?
’
For
Mr
Pancks
had
suddenly
made
that
blowing
effort
with
unusual
force
.
‘
It
’
s
nothing
,
’
said
Pancks
.
‘
So
devoted
a
man
of
business
as
yourself
has
a
perfect
understanding
of
a
fair
bargain
.
I
wish
to
make
a
fair
bargain
with
you
,
that
you
shall
enlighten
me
concerning
the
Dorrit
family
when
you
have
it
in
your
power
,
as
I
have
enlightened
you
.
It
may
not
give
you
a
very
flattering
idea
of
my
business
habits
,
that
I
failed
to
make
my
terms
beforehand
,
’
continued
Clennam
;
‘
but
I
prefer
to
make
them
a
point
of
honour
.
I
have
seen
so
much
business
done
on
sharp
principles
that
,
to
tell
you
the
truth
,
Mr
Pancks
,
I
am
tired
of
them
.
