‘
Now
,
’
said
Mr
Garland
when
they
had
made
some
further
inquiries
of
him
,
‘
I
am
not
going
to
give
you
anything
—
’
‘
Thank
you
,
sir
,
’
Kit
replied
;
and
quite
seriously
too
,
for
this
announcement
seemed
to
free
him
from
the
suspicion
which
the
Notary
had
hinted
.
‘
—
But
,
’
resumed
the
old
gentleman
,
‘
perhaps
I
may
want
to
know
something
more
about
you
,
so
tell
me
where
you
live
,
and
I
’
ll
put
it
down
in
my
pocket
-
book
.
’
Kit
told
him
,
and
the
old
gentleman
wrote
down
the
address
with
his
pencil
.
He
had
scarcely
done
so
,
when
there
was
a
great
uproar
in
the
street
,
and
the
old
lady
hurrying
to
the
window
cried
that
Whisker
had
run
away
,
upon
which
Kit
darted
out
to
the
rescue
,
and
the
others
followed
.
It
seemed
that
Mr
Chuckster
had
been
standing
with
his
hands
in
his
pockets
looking
carelessly
at
the
pony
,
and
occasionally
insulting
him
with
such
admonitions
as
‘
Stand
still
,
’
—
‘
Be
quiet
,
’
—
‘
Woa
-
a
-
a
,
’
and
the
like
,
which
by
a
pony
of
spirit
cannot
be
borne
Consequently
,
the
pony
being
deterred
by
no
considerations
of
duty
or
obedience
,
and
not
having
before
him
the
slightest
fear
of
the
human
eye
,
had
at
length
started
off
,
and
was
at
that
moment
rattling
down
the
street
—
Mr
Chuckster
,
with
his
hat
off
and
a
pen
behind
his
ear
,
hanging
on
in
the
rear
of
the
chaise
and
making
futile
attempts
to
draw
it
the
other
way
,
to
the
unspeakable
admiration
of
all
beholders
.
Even
in
running
away
,
however
,
Whisker
was
perverse
,
for
he
had
not
gone
very
far
when
he
suddenly
stopped
,
and
before
assistance
could
be
rendered
,
commenced
backing
at
nearly
as
quick
a
pace
as
he
had
gone
forward
.
By
these
means
Mr
Chuckster
was
pushed
and
hustled
to
the
office
again
,
in
a
most
inglorious
manner
,
and
arrived
in
a
state
of
great
exhaustion
and
discomfiture
.
The
old
lady
then
stepped
into
her
seat
,
and
Mr
Abel
(
whom
they
had
come
to
fetch
)
into
his
.
The
old
gentleman
,
after
reasoning
with
the
pony
on
the
extreme
impropriety
of
his
conduct
,
and
making
the
best
amends
in
his
power
to
Mr
Chuckster
,
took
his
place
also
,
and
they
drove
away
,
waving
a
farewell
to
the
Notary
and
his
clerk
,
and
more
than
once
turning
to
nod
kindly
to
Kit
as
he
watched
them
from
the
road
.
Kit
turned
away
and
very
soon
forgot
the
pony
,
and
the
chaise
,
and
the
little
old
lady
,
and
the
little
old
gentleman
,
and
the
little
young
gentleman
to
boot
,
in
thinking
what
could
have
become
of
his
late
master
and
his
lovely
grandchild
,
who
were
the
fountain
-
head
of
all
his
meditations
.
Still
casting
about
for
some
plausible
means
of
accounting
for
their
non
-
appearance
,
and
of
persuading
himself
that
they
must
soon
return
,
he
bent
his
steps
towards
home
,
intending
to
finish
the
task
which
the
sudden
recollection
of
his
contract
had
interrupted
,
and
then
to
sally
forth
once
more
to
seek
his
fortune
for
the
day
.
When
he
came
to
the
corner
of
the
court
in
which
he
lived
,
lo
and
behold
there
was
the
pony
again
!
Yes
,
there
he
was
,
looking
more
obstinate
than
ever
;
and
alone
in
the
chaise
,
keeping
a
steady
watch
upon
his
every
wink
,
sat
Mr
Abel
,
who
,
lifting
up
his
eyes
by
chance
and
seeing
Kit
pass
by
,
nodded
to
him
as
though
he
would
have
nodded
his
head
off
.
Kit
wondered
to
see
the
pony
again
,
so
near
his
own
home
too
,
but
it
never
occurred
to
him
for
what
purpose
the
pony
might
have
come
there
,
or
where
the
old
lady
and
the
old
gentleman
had
gone
,
until
he
lifted
the
latch
of
the
door
,
and
walking
in
,
found
them
seated
in
the
room
in
conversation
with
his
mother
,
at
which
unexpected
sight
he
pulled
off
his
hat
and
made
his
best
bow
in
some
confusion
.
