Some
moments
passed
in
silence
,
before
Mr
Meagles
could
hold
himself
in
his
chair
with
sufficient
security
to
prevent
his
breaking
out
of
it
at
the
next
word
he
spoke
.
At
last
he
said
:
‘
Ma
’
am
,
I
am
very
unwilling
to
revive
them
,
but
I
must
remind
you
what
my
opinions
and
my
course
were
,
all
along
,
on
that
unfortunate
subject
.
’
‘
O
,
my
dear
sir
!
’
said
Mrs
Gowan
,
smiling
and
shaking
her
head
with
accusatory
intelligence
,
‘
they
were
well
understood
by
me
,
I
assure
you
.
’
‘
I
never
,
ma
’
am
,
’
said
Mr
Meagles
,
‘
knew
unhappiness
before
that
time
,
I
never
knew
anxiety
before
that
time
.
It
was
a
time
of
such
distress
to
me
that
—
’
That
Mr
Meagles
could
really
say
no
more
about
it
,
in
short
,
but
passed
his
handkerchief
before
his
face
.
‘
I
understood
the
whole
affair
,
’
said
Mrs
Gowan
,
composedly
looking
over
her
fan
.
‘
As
you
have
appealed
to
Mr
Clennam
,
I
may
appeal
to
Mr
Clennam
,
too
.
He
knows
whether
I
did
or
not
.
’
‘
I
am
very
unwilling
,
’
said
Clennam
,
looked
to
by
all
parties
,
‘
to
take
any
share
in
this
discussion
,
more
especially
because
I
wish
to
preserve
the
best
understanding
and
the
clearest
relations
with
Mr
Henry
Gowan
.
I
have
very
strong
reasons
indeed
,
for
entertaining
that
wish
.
Mrs
Gowan
attributed
certain
views
of
furthering
the
marriage
to
my
friend
here
,
in
conversation
with
me
before
it
took
place
;
and
I
endeavoured
to
undeceive
her
.
I
represented
that
I
knew
him
(
as
I
did
and
do
)
to
be
strenuously
opposed
to
it
,
both
in
opinion
and
action
.
’
‘
You
see
?
’
said
Mrs
Gowan
,
turning
the
palms
of
her
hands
towards
Mr
Meagles
,
as
if
she
were
Justice
herself
,
representing
to
him
that
he
had
better
confess
,
for
he
had
not
a
leg
to
stand
on
.
‘
You
see
?
Very
good
!
Now
Papa
and
Mama
Meagles
both
!
’
here
she
rose
;
‘
allow
me
to
take
the
liberty
of
putting
an
end
to
this
rather
formidable
controversy
.
I
will
not
say
another
word
upon
its
merits
.
I
will
only
say
that
it
is
an
additional
proof
of
what
one
knows
from
all
experience
;
that
this
kind
of
thing
never
answers
—
as
my
poor
fellow
himself
would
say
,
that
it
never
pays
—
in
one
word
,
that
it
never
does
.
’
Mr
Meagles
asked
,
What
kind
of
thing
?
‘
It
is
in
vain
,
’
said
Mrs
Gowan
,
‘
for
people
to
attempt
to
get
on
together
who
have
such
extremely
different
antecedents
;
who
are
jumbled
against
each
other
in
this
accidental
,
matrimonial
sort
of
way
;
and
who
cannot
look
at
the
untoward
circumstance
which
has
shaken
them
together
in
the
same
light
.
It
never
does
.
