The
change
I
mean
is
an
amalgamation
with
the
Infirmary
,
so
that
the
New
Hospital
shall
be
regarded
as
a
special
addition
to
the
elder
institution
,
having
the
same
directing
board
.
It
will
be
necessary
,
also
,
that
the
medical
management
of
the
two
shall
be
combined
.
In
this
way
any
difficulty
as
to
the
adequate
maintenance
of
our
new
establishment
will
be
removed
;
the
benevolent
interests
of
the
town
will
cease
to
be
divided
.
"
Mr
.
Bulstrode
had
lowered
his
eyes
from
Lydgate
’
s
face
to
the
buttons
of
his
coat
as
he
again
paused
.
"
No
doubt
that
is
a
good
device
as
to
ways
and
means
,
"
said
Lydgate
,
with
an
edge
of
irony
in
his
tone
.
"
But
I
can
’
t
be
expected
to
rejoice
in
it
at
once
,
since
one
of
the
first
results
will
be
that
the
other
medical
men
will
upset
or
interrupt
my
methods
,
if
it
were
only
because
they
are
mine
.
"
"
I
myself
,
as
you
know
,
Mr
.
Lydgate
,
highly
valued
the
opportunity
of
new
and
independent
procedure
which
you
have
diligently
employed
:
the
original
plan
,
I
confess
,
was
one
which
I
had
much
at
heart
,
under
submission
to
the
Divine
Will
.
But
since
providential
indications
demand
a
renunciation
from
me
,
I
renounce
.
"
Bulstrode
showed
a
rather
exasperating
ability
in
this
conversation
.
The
broken
metaphor
and
bad
logic
of
motive
which
had
stirred
his
hearer
’
s
contempt
were
quite
consistent
with
a
mode
of
putting
the
facts
which
made
it
difficult
for
Lydgate
to
vent
his
own
indignation
and
disappointment
.
After
some
rapid
reflection
,
he
only
asked
—
"
What
did
Mrs
.
Casaubon
say
?
"
"
That
was
the
further
statement
which
I
wished
to
make
to
you
,
"
said
Bulstrode
,
who
had
thoroughly
prepared
his
ministerial
explanation
.
"
She
is
,
you
are
aware
,
a
woman
of
most
munificent
disposition
,
and
happily
in
possession
—
not
I
presume
of
great
wealth
,
but
of
funds
which
she
can
well
spare
.
She
has
informed
me
that
though
she
has
destined
the
chief
part
of
those
funds
to
another
purpose
,
she
is
willing
to
consider
whether
she
cannot
fully
take
my
place
in
relation
to
the
Hospital
.
But
she
wishes
for
ample
time
to
mature
her
thoughts
on
the
subject
,
and
I
have
told
her
that
there
is
no
need
for
haste
—
that
,
in
fact
,
my
own
plans
are
not
yet
absolute
.
"
Lydgate
was
ready
to
say
,
"
If
Mrs
.
Casaubon
would
take
your
place
,
there
would
be
gain
,
instead
of
loss
.
"
But
there
was
still
a
weight
on
his
mind
which
arrested
this
cheerful
candor
.
He
replied
,
"
I
suppose
,
then
,
that
I
may
enter
into
the
subject
with
Mrs
.
Casaubon
.
"
