Mr
.
Bob
Sawyer
,
having
previously
passed
through
the
GAZETTE
,
passed
over
to
Bengal
,
accompanied
by
Mr
.
Benjamin
Allen
;
both
gentlemen
having
received
surgical
appointments
from
the
East
India
Company
.
They
each
had
the
yellow
fever
fourteen
times
,
and
then
resolved
to
try
a
little
abstinence
;
since
which
period
,
they
have
been
doing
well
.
Mrs
.
Bardell
let
lodgings
to
many
conversable
single
gentlemen
,
with
great
profit
,
but
never
brought
any
more
actions
for
breach
of
promise
of
marriage
.
Her
attorneys
,
Messrs
.
Dodson
&
Fogg
,
continue
in
business
,
from
which
they
realise
a
large
income
,
and
in
which
they
are
universally
considered
among
the
sharpest
of
the
sharp
.
Sam
Weller
kept
his
word
,
and
remained
unmarried
,
for
two
years
.
The
old
housekeeper
dying
at
the
end
of
that
time
,
Mr
.
Pickwick
promoted
Mary
to
the
situation
,
on
condition
of
her
marrying
Mr
.
Weller
at
once
,
which
she
did
without
a
murmur
.
From
the
circumstance
of
two
sturdy
little
boys
having
been
repeatedly
seen
at
the
gate
of
the
back
garden
,
there
is
reason
to
suppose
that
Sam
has
some
family
.
The
elder
Mr
.
Weller
drove
a
coach
for
twelve
months
,
but
being
afflicted
with
the
gout
,
was
compelled
to
retire
.
The
contents
of
the
pocket
-
book
had
been
so
well
invested
for
him
,
however
,
by
Mr
.
Pickwick
,
that
he
had
a
handsome
independence
to
retire
on
,
upon
which
he
still
lives
at
an
excellent
public
-
house
near
Shooter
’
s
Hill
,
where
he
is
quite
reverenced
as
an
oracle
,
boasting
very
much
of
his
intimacy
with
Mr
.
Pickwick
,
and
retaining
a
most
unconquerable
aversion
to
widows
.
Mr
.
Pickwick
himself
continued
to
reside
in
his
new
house
,
employing
his
leisure
hours
in
arranging
the
memoranda
which
he
afterwards
presented
to
the
secretary
of
the
once
famous
club
,
or
in
hearing
Sam
Weller
read
aloud
,
with
such
remarks
as
suggested
themselves
to
his
mind
,
which
never
failed
to
afford
Mr
.
Pickwick
great
amusement
.
He
was
much
troubled
at
first
,
by
the
numerous
applications
made
to
him
by
Mr
.
Snodgrass
,
Mr
.
Winkle
,
and
Mr
.
Trundle
,
to
act
as
godfather
to
their
offspring
;
but
he
has
become
used
to
it
now
,
and
officiates
as
a
matter
of
course
.
He
never
had
occasion
to
regret
his
bounty
to
Mr
.
Jingle
;
for
both
that
person
and
Job
Trotter
became
,
in
time
,
worthy
members
of
society
,
although
they
have
always
steadily
objected
to
return
to
the
scenes
of
their
old
haunts
and
temptations
.
Mr
.
Pickwick
is
somewhat
infirm
now
;
but
he
retains
all
his
former
juvenility
of
spirit
,
and
may
still
be
frequently
seen
,
contemplating
the
pictures
in
the
Dulwich
Gallery
,
or
enjoying
a
walk
about
the
pleasant
neighbourhood
on
a
fine
day
.
He
is
known
by
all
the
poor
people
about
,
who
never
fail
to
take
their
hats
off
,
as
he
passes
,
with
great
respect
The
children
idolise
him
,
and
so
indeed
does
the
whole
neighbourhood
.
Every
year
he
repairs
to
a
large
family
merry
-
making
at
Mr
.
Wardle
’
s
;
on
this
,
as
on
all
other
occasions
,
he
is
invariably
attended
by
the
faithful
Sam
,
between
whom
and
his
master
there
exists
a
steady
and
reciprocal
attachment
which
nothing
but
death
will
terminate
.
