"
Thank
you
,
"
said
Raffles
,
making
a
grimace
.
"
I
don
t
care
now
about
seeing
my
stepson
.
I
d
rather
go
home
with
you
.
"
"
Your
stepson
,
if
Mr
.
Rigg
Featherstone
was
he
,
is
here
no
longer
.
I
am
master
here
now
.
"
Raffles
opened
wide
eyes
,
and
gave
a
long
whistle
of
surprise
,
before
he
said
,
"
Well
then
,
I
ve
no
objection
.
I
ve
had
enough
walking
from
the
coach
-
road
.
I
never
was
much
of
a
walker
,
or
rider
either
.
What
I
like
is
a
smart
vehicle
and
a
spirited
cob
.
I
was
always
a
little
heavy
in
the
saddle
.
What
a
pleasant
surprise
it
must
be
to
you
to
see
me
,
old
fellow
!
"
he
continued
,
as
they
turned
towards
the
house
.
"
You
don
t
say
so
;
but
you
never
took
your
luck
heartily
you
were
always
thinking
of
improving
the
occasion
you
d
such
a
gift
for
improving
your
luck
.

Mr
.
Raffles
seemed
greatly
to
enjoy
his
own
wit
,
and
Swung
his
leg
in
a
swaggering
manner
which
was
rather
too
much
for
his
companion
s
judicious
patience
.
"
If
I
remember
rightly
,
"
Mr
.
Bulstrode
observed
,
with
chill
anger
,
"
our
acquaintance
many
years
ago
had
not
the
sort
of
intimacy
which
you
are
now
assuming
,
Mr
.
Raffles
.
Any
services
you
desire
of
me
will
be
the
more
readily
rendered
if
you
will
avoid
a
tone
of
familiarity
which
did
not
lie
in
our
former
intercourse
,
and
can
hardly
be
warranted
by
more
than
twenty
years
of
separation
.
"
"
You
don
t
like
being
called
Nick
?
Why
,
I
always
called
you
Nick
in
my
heart
,
and
though
lost
to
sight
,
to
memory
dear
.
By
Jove
!
my
feelings
have
ripened
for
you
like
fine
old
cognac
.
I
hope
you
ve
got
some
in
the
house
now
.
Josh
filled
my
flask
well
the
last
time
.

Mr
.
Bulstrode
had
not
yet
fully
learned
that
even
the
desire
for
cognac
was
not
stronger
in
Raffles
than
the
desire
to
torment
,
and
that
a
hint
of
annoyance
always
served
him
as
a
fresh
cue
.
But
it
was
at
least
clear
that
further
objection
was
useless
,
and
Mr
.
Bulstrode
,
in
giving
orders
to
the
housekeeper
for
the
accommodation
of
the
guest
,
had
a
resolute
air
of
quietude
.
There
was
the
comfort
of
thinking
that
this
housekeeper
had
been
in
the
service
of
Rigg
also
,
and
might
accept
the
idea
that
Mr
.
Bulstrode
entertained
Raffles
merely
as
a
friend
of
her
former
master
.
When
there
was
food
and
drink
spread
before
his
visitor
in
the
wainscoted
parlor
,
and
no
witness
in
the
room
,
Mr
.
Bulstrode
said
