Frederick
doubted
if
he
had
ever
heard
it
.
No
one
could
doubt
that
Frederick
was
the
last
person
upon
earth
to
put
such
a
question
to
,
with
any
hope
of
information
.
‘
I
mean
,
’
said
his
brother
,
‘
the
gentleman
who
did
that
handsome
action
with
so
much
delicacy
.
Ha
!
Tush
!
The
name
has
quite
escaped
me
.
Mr
Clennam
,
as
I
have
happened
to
mention
handsome
and
delicate
action
,
you
may
like
,
perhaps
,
to
know
what
it
was
.
’
‘
Very
much
,
’
said
Arthur
,
withdrawing
his
eyes
from
the
delicate
head
beginning
to
droop
and
the
pale
face
with
a
new
solicitude
stealing
over
it
.
‘
It
is
so
generous
,
and
shows
so
much
fine
feeling
,
that
it
is
almost
a
duty
to
mention
it
.
I
said
at
the
time
that
I
always
would
mention
it
on
every
suitable
occasion
,
without
regard
to
personal
sensitiveness
.
A
—
well
—
a
—
it
’
s
of
no
use
to
disguise
the
fact
—
you
must
know
,
Mr
Clennam
,
that
it
does
sometimes
occur
that
people
who
come
here
desire
to
offer
some
little
—
Testimonial
—
to
the
Father
of
the
place
.
’
To
see
her
hand
upon
his
arm
in
mute
entreaty
half
-
repressed
,
and
her
timid
little
shrinking
figure
turning
away
,
was
to
see
a
sad
,
sad
sight
.
‘
Sometimes
,
’
he
went
on
in
a
low
,
soft
voice
,
agitated
,
and
clearing
his
throat
every
now
and
then
;
‘
sometimes
—
hem
—
it
takes
one
shape
and
sometimes
another
;
but
it
is
generally
—
ha
—
Money
.
And
it
is
,
I
cannot
but
confess
it
,
it
is
too
often
—
hem
—
acceptable
.
This
gentleman
that
I
refer
to
,
was
presented
to
me
,
Mr
Clennam
,
in
a
manner
highly
gratifying
to
my
feelings
,
and
conversed
not
only
with
great
politeness
,
but
with
great
—
ahem
—
information
.
’
All
this
time
,
though
he
had
finished
his
supper
,
he
was
nervously
going
about
his
plate
with
his
knife
and
fork
,
as
if
some
of
it
were
still
before
him
.
‘
It
appeared
from
his
conversation
that
he
had
a
garden
,
though
he
was
delicate
of
mentioning
it
at
first
,
as
gardens
are
—
hem
—
are
not
accessible
to
me
.
But
it
came
out
,
through
my
admiring
a
very
fine
cluster
of
geranium
—
beautiful
cluster
of
geranium
to
be
sure
—
which
he
had
brought
from
his
conservatory
.
On
my
taking
notice
of
its
rich
colour
,
he
showed
me
a
piece
of
paper
round
it
,
on
which
was
written
,
“
For
the
Father
of
the
Marshalsea
,
”
and
presented
it
to
me
.
But
this
was
—
hem
—
not
all
.
He
made
a
particular
request
,
on
taking
leave
,
that
I
would
remove
the
paper
in
half
an
hour
.
I
—
ha
—
I
did
so
;
and
I
found
that
it
contained
—
ahem
—
two
guineas
.
I
assure
you
,
Mr
Clennam
,
I
have
received
—
hem
—
Testimonials
in
many
ways
,
and
of
many
degrees
of
value
,
and
they
have
always
been
—
ha
—
unfortunately
acceptable
;
but
I
never
was
more
pleased
than
with
this
—
ahem
—
this
particular
Testimonial
.
’
Arthur
was
in
the
act
of
saying
the
little
he
could
say
on
such
a
theme
,
when
a
bell
began
to
ring
,
and
footsteps
approached
the
door
.
A
pretty
girl
of
a
far
better
figure
and
much
more
developed
than
Little
Dorrit
,
though
looking
much
younger
in
the
face
when
the
two
were
observed
together
,
stopped
in
the
doorway
on
seeing
a
stranger
;
and
a
young
man
who
was
with
her
,
stopped
too
.
‘
Mr
Clennam
,
Fanny
.
My
eldest
daughter
and
my
son
,
Mr
Clennam
.
The
bell
is
a
signal
for
visitors
to
retire
,
and
so
they
have
come
to
say
good
night
;
but
there
is
plenty
of
time
,
plenty
of
time
.
Girls
,
Mr
Clennam
will
excuse
any
household
business
you
may
have
together
.
He
knows
,
I
dare
say
,
that
I
have
but
one
room
here
.
