“
It
is
Higgins
,
”
he
said
;
“
Higgins
of
Edge
Farm
.
He
has
been
very
unfortunate
.
He
was
ill
himself
last
autumn
,
and
his
children
had
scarlet
fever
.
I
can
’
t
say
that
he
is
a
very
good
manager
,
but
he
has
had
ill
-
luck
,
and
of
course
he
is
behindhand
in
many
ways
.
He
is
in
trouble
about
his
rent
now
.
Newick
tells
him
if
he
doesn
’
t
pay
it
,
he
must
leave
the
place
;
and
of
course
that
would
be
a
very
serious
matter
.
His
wife
is
ill
,
and
he
came
to
me
yesterday
to
beg
me
to
see
about
it
,
and
ask
you
for
time
.
He
thinks
if
you
would
give
him
time
he
could
catch
up
again
.
”
“
They
all
think
that
,
”
said
the
Earl
,
looking
rather
black
.
Fauntleroy
made
a
movement
forward
.
He
had
been
standing
between
his
grandfather
and
the
visitor
,
listening
with
all
his
might
.
He
had
begun
to
be
interested
in
Higgins
at
once
.
He
wondered
how
many
children
there
were
,
and
if
the
scarlet
fever
had
hurt
them
very
much
.
His
eyes
were
wide
open
and
were
fixed
upon
Mr
.
Mordaunt
with
intent
interest
as
that
gentleman
went
on
with
the
conversation
.
“
Higgins
is
a
well
-
meaning
man
,
”
said
the
rector
,
making
an
effort
to
strengthen
his
plea
.
“
He
is
a
bad
enough
tenant
,
”
replied
his
lordship
.
“
And
he
is
always
behindhand
,
Newick
tells
me
.
”
“
He
is
in
great
trouble
now
,
”
said
the
rector
.
“
He
is
very
fond
of
his
wife
and
children
,
and
if
the
farm
is
taken
from
him
they
may
literally
starve
.
He
can
not
give
them
the
nourishing
things
they
need
.
Two
of
the
children
were
left
very
low
after
the
fever
,
and
the
doctor
orders
for
them
wine
and
luxuries
that
Higgins
can
not
afford
.
”
At
this
Fauntleroy
moved
a
step
nearer
.
“
That
was
the
way
with
Michael
,
”
he
said
.
