Let
me
tell
you
,
first
,
that
my
friends
who
have
been
here
to
-
day
,
know
nothing
of
it
,
and
that
their
kindness
to
you
has
been
quite
spontaneous
and
with
no
hope
of
return
.
It
may
do
a
thoughtless
,
careless
man
,
good
,
to
know
that
.
’
Dick
thanked
him
,
and
said
he
hoped
it
would
.
‘
I
have
been
making
some
inquiries
about
you
,
’
said
Mr
Witherden
,
‘
little
thinking
that
I
should
find
you
under
such
circumstances
as
those
which
have
brought
us
together
.
You
are
the
nephew
of
Rebecca
Swiveller
,
spinster
,
deceased
,
of
Cheselbourne
in
Dorsetshire
.
’
‘
Deceased
!
’
cried
Dick
.
‘
Deceased
.
If
you
had
been
another
sort
of
nephew
,
you
would
have
come
into
possession
(
so
says
the
will
,
and
I
see
no
reason
to
doubt
it
)
of
five
-
and
-
twenty
thousand
pounds
.
As
it
is
,
you
have
fallen
into
an
annuity
of
one
hundred
and
fifty
pounds
a
year
;
but
I
think
I
may
congratulate
you
even
upon
that
.
’
‘
Sir
,
’
said
Dick
,
sobbing
and
laughing
together
,
‘
you
may
.
For
,
please
God
,
we
’
ll
make
a
scholar
of
the
poor
Marchioness
yet
!
And
she
shall
walk
in
silk
attire
,
and
siller
have
to
spare
,
or
may
I
never
rise
from
this
bed
again
!
’
Unconscious
of
the
proceedings
faithfully
narrated
in
the
last
chapter
,
and
little
dreaming
of
the
mine
which
had
been
sprung
beneath
him
(
for
,
to
the
end
that
he
should
have
no
warning
of
the
business
a
-
foot
,
the
profoundest
secrecy
was
observed
in
the
whole
transaction
)
,
Mr
Quilp
remained
shut
up
in
his
hermitage
,
undisturbed
by
any
suspicion
,
and
extremely
well
satisfied
with
the
result
of
his
machinations
.
Being
engaged
in
the
adjustment
of
some
accounts
—
an
occupation
to
which
the
silence
and
solitude
of
his
retreat
were
very
favourable
—
he
had
not
strayed
from
his
den
for
two
whole
days
.
The
third
day
of
his
devotion
to
this
pursuit
found
him
still
hard
at
work
,
and
little
disposed
to
stir
abroad
.
It
was
the
day
next
after
Mr
Brass
’
s
confession
,
and
consequently
,
that
which
threatened
the
restriction
of
Mr
Quilp
’
s
liberty
,
and
the
abrupt
communication
to
him
of
some
very
unpleasant
and
unwelcome
facts
.
Having
no
intuitive
perception
of
the
cloud
which
lowered
upon
his
house
,
the
dwarf
was
in
his
ordinary
state
of
cheerfulness
;
and
,
when
he
found
he
was
becoming
too
much
engrossed
by
business
with
a
due
regard
to
his
health
and
spirits
,
he
varied
its
monotonous
routine
with
a
little
screeching
,
or
howling
,
or
some
other
innocent
relaxation
of
that
nature
.
He
was
attended
,
as
usual
,
by
Tom
Scott
,
who
sat
crouching
over
the
fire
after
the
manner
of
a
toad
,
and
,
from
time
to
time
,
when
his
master
’
s
back
was
turned
,
imitating
his
grimaces
with
a
fearful
exactness
.
The
figure
-
head
had
not
yet
disappeared
,
but
remained
in
its
old
place
.
The
face
,
horribly
seared
by
the
frequent
application
of
the
red
-
hot
poker
,
and
further
ornamented
by
the
insertion
,
in
the
tip
of
the
nose
,
of
a
tenpenny
nail
,
yet
smiled
blandly
in
its
less
lacerated
parts
,
and
seemed
,
like
a
sturdy
martyr
,
to
provoke
its
tormentor
to
the
commission
of
new
outrages
and
insults
.
