Besides
,
mother
,
you
being
sole
executrix
,
and
having
the
direction
and
management
of
the
estate
,
there
remained
little
business
,
or
I
might
say
none
,
that
I
could
transact
,
until
you
had
had
time
to
arrange
matters
to
your
satisfaction
.
’
‘
The
accounts
are
made
out
,
’
she
returned
.
‘
I
have
them
here
.
The
vouchers
have
all
been
examined
and
passed
.
You
can
inspect
them
when
you
like
,
Arthur
;
now
,
if
you
please
.
’
‘
It
is
quite
enough
,
mother
,
to
know
that
the
business
is
completed
.
Shall
I
proceed
then
?
’
‘
Why
not
?
’
she
said
,
in
her
frozen
way
.
‘
Mother
,
our
House
has
done
less
and
less
for
some
years
past
,
and
our
dealings
have
been
progressively
on
the
decline
.
We
have
never
shown
much
confidence
,
or
invited
much
;
we
have
attached
no
people
to
us
;
the
track
we
have
kept
is
not
the
track
of
the
time
;
and
we
have
been
left
far
behind
.
I
need
not
dwell
on
this
to
you
,
mother
.
You
know
it
necessarily
.
’
‘
I
know
what
you
mean
,
’
she
answered
,
in
a
qualified
tone
.
‘
Even
this
old
house
in
which
we
speak
,
’
pursued
her
son
,
‘
is
an
instance
of
what
I
say
.
In
my
father
’
s
earlier
time
,
and
in
his
uncle
’
s
time
before
him
,
it
was
a
place
of
business
—
really
a
place
of
business
,
and
business
resort
.
Now
,
it
is
a
mere
anomaly
and
incongruity
here
,
out
of
date
and
out
of
purpose
.
All
our
consignments
have
long
been
made
to
Rovinghams
’
the
commission
-
merchants
;
and
although
,
as
a
check
upon
them
,
and
in
the
stewardship
of
my
father
’
s
resources
,
your
judgment
and
watchfulness
have
been
actively
exerted
,
still
those
qualities
would
have
influenced
my
father
’
s
fortunes
equally
,
if
you
had
lived
in
any
private
dwelling
:
would
they
not
?
’
‘
Do
you
consider
,
’
she
returned
,
without
answering
his
question
,
‘
that
a
house
serves
no
purpose
,
Arthur
,
in
sheltering
your
infirm
and
afflicted
—
justly
infirm
and
righteously
afflicted
—
mother
?
’
‘
I
was
speaking
only
of
business
purposes
.
