‘
Yes
,
it
were
,
Sir
.
’
And
Mrs
.
Cluppins
,
after
distinctly
stating
that
Mr
.
Pickwick
addressed
himself
to
Mrs
.
Bardell
,
repeated
by
slow
degrees
,
and
by
dint
of
many
questions
,
the
conversation
with
which
our
readers
are
already
acquainted
.
The
jury
looked
suspicious
,
and
Mr
.
Serjeant
Buzfuz
smiled
as
he
sat
down
.
They
looked
positively
awful
when
Serjeant
Snubbin
intimated
that
he
should
not
cross
-
examine
the
witness
,
for
Mr
.
Pickwick
wished
it
to
be
distinctly
stated
that
it
was
due
to
her
to
say
,
that
her
account
was
in
substance
correct
.
Mrs
.
Cluppins
having
once
broken
the
ice
,
thought
it
a
favourable
opportunity
for
entering
into
a
short
dissertation
on
her
own
domestic
affairs
;
so
she
straightway
proceeded
to
inform
the
court
that
she
was
the
mother
of
eight
children
at
that
present
speaking
,
and
that
she
entertained
confident
expectations
of
presenting
Mr
.
Cluppins
with
a
ninth
,
somewhere
about
that
day
six
months
.
At
this
interesting
point
,
the
little
judge
interposed
most
irascibly
;
and
the
effect
of
the
interposition
was
,
that
both
the
worthy
lady
and
Mrs
.
Sanders
were
politely
taken
out
of
court
,
under
the
escort
of
Mr
.
Jackson
,
without
further
parley
.
‘
Nathaniel
Winkle
!
’
said
Mr
.
Skimpin
.
‘
Here
!
’
replied
a
feeble
voice
.
Mr
.
Winkle
entered
the
witness
-
box
,
and
having
been
duly
sworn
,
bowed
to
the
judge
with
considerable
deference
.
‘
Don
’
t
look
at
me
,
Sir
,
’
said
the
judge
sharply
,
in
acknowledgment
of
the
salute
;
‘
look
at
the
jury
.
’
Mr
.
Winkle
obeyed
the
mandate
,
and
looked
at
the
place
where
he
thought
it
most
probable
the
jury
might
be
;
for
seeing
anything
in
his
then
state
of
intellectual
complication
was
wholly
out
of
the
question
.
Mr
.
Winkle
was
then
examined
by
Mr
.
Skimpin
,
who
,
being
a
promising
young
man
of
two
or
three
-
and
-
forty
,
was
of
course
anxious
to
confuse
a
witness
who
was
notoriously
predisposed
in
favour
of
the
other
side
,
as
much
as
he
could
.
‘
Now
,
Sir
,
’
said
Mr
.
Skimpin
,
‘
have
the
goodness
to
let
his
Lordship
know
what
your
name
is
,
will
you
?
’
and
Mr
.
Skimpin
inclined
his
head
on
one
side
to
listen
with
great
sharpness
to
the
answer
,
and
glanced
at
the
jury
meanwhile
,
as
if
to
imply
that
he
rather
expected
Mr
.
Winkle
’
s
natural
taste
for
perjury
would
induce
him
to
give
some
name
which
did
not
belong
to
him
.
