‘
That
’
s
the
way
to
put
it
,
’
said
Miss
Sally
,
nodding
to
her
brother
.
‘
Did
he
say
,
for
instance
,
’
added
Brass
,
in
a
kind
of
comfortable
,
cozy
tone
—
‘
I
don
’
t
assert
that
he
did
say
so
,
mind
;
I
only
ask
you
,
to
refresh
your
memory
—
did
he
say
,
for
instance
,
that
he
was
a
stranger
in
London
—
that
it
was
not
his
humour
or
within
his
ability
to
give
any
references
—
that
he
felt
we
had
a
right
to
require
them
—
and
that
,
in
case
anything
should
happen
to
him
,
at
any
time
,
he
particularly
desired
that
whatever
property
he
had
upon
the
premises
should
be
considered
mine
,
as
some
slight
recompense
for
the
trouble
and
annoyance
I
should
sustain
—
and
were
you
,
in
short
,
’
added
Brass
,
still
more
comfortably
and
cozily
than
before
,
‘
were
you
induced
to
accept
him
on
my
behalf
,
as
a
tenant
,
upon
those
conditions
?
’
‘
Certainly
not
,
’
replied
Dick
.
‘
Why
then
,
Mr
Richard
,
’
said
Brass
,
darting
at
him
a
supercilious
and
reproachful
look
,
‘
it
’
s
my
opinion
that
you
’
ve
mistaken
your
calling
,
and
will
never
make
a
lawyer
.
’
‘
Not
if
you
live
a
thousand
years
,
’
added
Miss
Sally
.
Whereupon
the
brother
and
sister
took
each
a
noisy
pinch
of
snuff
from
the
little
tin
box
,
and
fell
into
a
gloomy
thoughtfulness
.
Nothing
further
passed
up
to
Mr
Swiveller
’
s
dinner
-
time
,
which
was
at
three
o
’
clock
,
and
seemed
about
three
weeks
in
coming
.
At
the
first
stroke
of
the
hour
,
the
new
clerk
disappeared
.
At
the
last
stroke
of
five
,
he
reappeared
,
and
the
office
,
as
if
by
magic
,
became
fragrant
with
the
smell
of
gin
and
water
and
lemon
-
peel
.
‘
Mr
Richard
,
’
said
Brass
,
‘
this
man
’
s
not
up
yet
.
Nothing
will
wake
him
,
sir
.
What
’
s
to
be
done
?
’
‘
I
should
let
him
have
his
sleep
out
,
’
returned
Dick
.
‘
Sleep
out
!
’
cried
Brass
;
‘
why
he
has
been
asleep
now
,
six
-
and
-
twenty
hours
.
We
have
been
moving
chests
of
drawers
over
his
head
,
we
have
knocked
double
knocks
at
the
street
-
door
,
we
have
made
the
servant
-
girl
fall
down
stairs
several
times
(
she
’
s
a
light
weight
,
and
it
don
’
t
hurt
her
much
,
)
but
nothing
wakes
him
.
