said
the
turnkey

‘
Was
father
ever
there

‘
Hem

’
coughed
the
turnkey
.
‘
O
yes
,
he
was
there
,
sometimes
.
’
‘
Is
he
sorry
not
to
be
there
now
?
’
‘
N

not
particular
,
’
said
the
turnkey
.
‘
Nor
any
of
the
people
?
’
she
asked
,
glancing
at
the
listless
crowd
within
.
‘
O
are
you
quite
sure
and
certain
,
Bob
?
’
At
this
difficult
point
of
the
conversation
Bob
gave
in
,
and
changed
the
subject
to
hard
-
bake
:
always
his
last
resource
when
he
found
his
little
friend
getting
him
into
a
political
,
social
,
or
theological
corner
.
But
this
was
the
origin
of
a
series
of
Sunday
excursions
that
these
two
curious
companions
made
together
.
They
used
to
issue
from
the
lodge
on
alternate
Sunday
afternoons
with
great
gravity
,
bound
for
some
meadows
or
green
lanes
that
had
been
elaborately
appointed
by
the
turnkey
in
the
course
of
the
week
;
and
there
she
picked
grass
and
flowers
to
bring
home
,
while
he
smoked
his
pipe
.
Afterwards
,
there
were
tea
-
gardens
,
shrimps
,
ale
,
and
other
delicacies
;
and
then
they
would
come
back
hand
in
hand
,
unless
she
was
more
than
usually
tired
,
and
had
fallen
asleep
on
his
shoulder
.
In
those
early
days
,
the
turnkey
first
began
profoundly
to
consider
a
question
which
cost
him
so
much
mental
labour
,
that
it
remained
undetermined
on
the
day
of
his
death
.
He
decided
to
will
and
bequeath
his
little
property
of
savings
to
his
godchild
,
and
the
point
arose
how
could
it
be
so
‘
tied
up
’
as
that
only
she
should
have
the
benefit
of
it
?
His
experience
on
the
lock
gave
him
such
an
acute
perception
of
the
enormous
difficulty
of
‘
tying
up
’
money
with
any
approach
to
tightness
,
and
contrariwise
of
the
remarkable
ease
with
which
it
got
loose
,
that
through
a
series
of
years
he
regularly
propounded
this
knotty
point
to
every
new
insolvent
agent
and
other
professional
gentleman
who
passed
in
and
out
.
‘
Supposing
,
’
he
would
say
,
stating
the
case
with
his
key
on
the
professional
gentleman
’
s
waistcoat
;
‘
supposing
a
man
wanted
to
leave
his
property
to
a
young
female
,
and
wanted
to
tie
it
up
so
that
nobody
else
should
ever
be
able
to
make
a
grab
at
it
;
how
would
you
tie
up
that
property
?
