'
Very
good
,
'
replied
Mr.
Brownlow
,
smiling
;
'
but
no
doubt
they
will
bring
that
about
for
themselves
in
the
fulness
of
time
,
and
if
we
step
in
to
forestall
them
,
it
seems
to
me
that
we
shall
be
performing
a
very
Quixotic
act
,
in
direct
opposition
to
our
own
interest
--
or
at
least
to
Oliver
's
,
which
is
the
same
thing
.
'
'
How
?
'
inquired
the
doctor
.
'
Thus
.
It
is
quite
clear
that
we
shall
have
extreme
difficulty
in
getting
to
the
bottom
of
this
mystery
,
unless
we
can
bring
this
man
,
Monks
,
upon
his
knees
.
That
can
only
be
done
by
stratagem
,
and
by
catching
him
when
he
is
not
surrounded
by
these
people
.
For
,
suppose
he
were
apprehended
,
we
have
no
proof
against
him
.
He
is
not
even
(
so
far
as
we
know
,
or
as
the
facts
appear
to
us
)
concerned
with
the
gang
in
any
of
their
robberies
.
If
he
were
not
discharged
,
it
is
very
unlikely
that
he
could
receive
any
further
punishment
than
being
committed
to
prison
as
a
rogue
and
vagabond
;
and
of
course
ever
afterwards
his
mouth
would
be
so
obstinately
closed
that
he
might
as
well
,
for
our
purposes
,
be
deaf
,
dumb
,
blind
,
and
an
idiot
.
'
'
Then
,
'
said
the
doctor
impetuously
,
'
I
put
it
to
you
again
,
whether
you
think
it
reasonable
that
this
promise
to
the
girl
should
be
considered
binding
;
a
promise
made
with
the
best
and
kindest
intentions
,
but
really
--
'
'
Do
not
discuss
the
point
,
my
dear
young
lady
,
pray
,
'
said
Mr.
Brownlow
,
interrupting
Rose
as
she
was
about
to
speak
.
'
The
promise
shall
be
kept
.
I
do
n't
think
it
will
,
in
the
slightest
degree
,
interfere
with
our
proceedings
.
But
,
before
we
can
resolve
upon
any
precise
course
of
action
,
it
will
be
necessary
to
see
the
girl
;
to
ascertain
from
her
whether
she
will
point
out
this
Monks
,
on
the
understanding
that
he
is
to
be
dealt
with
by
us
,
and
not
by
the
law
;
or
,
if
she
will
not
,
or
can
not
do
that
,
to
procure
from
her
such
an
account
of
his
haunts
and
description
of
his
person
,
as
will
enable
us
to
identify
him
.
She
can
not
be
seen
until
next
Sunday
night
;
this
is
Tuesday
.
I
would
suggest
that
in
the
meantime
,
we
remain
perfectly
quiet
,
and
keep
these
matters
secret
even
from
Oliver
himself
.
'
Although
Mr.
Loseberne
received
with
many
wry
faces
a
proposal
involving
a
delay
of
five
whole
days
,
he
was
fain
to
admit
that
no
better
course
occurred
to
him
just
then
;
and
as
both
Rose
and
Mrs.
Maylie
sided
very
strongly
with
Mr.
Brownlow
,
that
gentleman
's
proposition
was
carried
unanimously
.
'
I
should
like
,
'
he
said
,
'
to
call
in
the
aid
of
my
friend
Grimwig
.
He
is
a
strange
creature
,
but
a
shrewd
one
,
and
might
prove
of
material
assistance
to
us
;
I
should
say
that
he
was
bred
a
lawyer
,
and
quitted
the
Bar
in
disgust
because
he
had
only
one
brief
and
a
motion
of
course
,
in
twenty
years
,
though
whether
that
is
recommendation
or
not
,
you
must
determine
for
yourselves
.
'
'
I
have
no
objection
to
your
calling
in
your
friend
if
I
may
call
in
mine
,
'
said
the
doctor
.
