I
would
name
no
unnecessary
names
,
Mr.
Balfour
,
"
said
he
;
"
above
all
of
Highlanders
,
many
of
whom
are
obnoxious
to
the
law
.
"
"
Well
,
it
might
have
been
better
not
,
"
said
I
,
"
but
since
I
have
let
it
slip
,
I
may
as
well
continue
.
"
"
Not
at
all
,
"
said
Mr.
Rankeillor
.
"
I
am
somewhat
dull
of
hearing
,
as
you
may
have
remarked
;
and
I
am
far
from
sure
I
caught
the
name
exactly
.
We
will
call
your
friend
,
if
you
please
,
Mr.
Thomson
--
that
there
may
be
no
reflections
.
And
in
future
,
I
would
take
some
such
way
with
any
Highlander
that
you
may
have
to
mention
--
dead
or
alive
.
"
By
this
,
I
saw
he
must
have
heard
the
name
all
too
clearly
,
and
had
already
guessed
I
might
be
coming
to
the
murder
.
If
he
chose
to
play
this
part
of
ignorance
,
it
was
no
matter
of
mine
;
so
I
smiled
,
said
it
was
no
very
Highland-sounding
name
,
and
consented
.
Through
all
the
rest
of
my
story
Alan
was
Mr.
Thomson
;
which
amused
me
the
more
,
as
it
was
a
piece
of
policy
after
his
own
heart
.
James
Stewart
,
in
like
manner
,
was
mentioned
under
the
style
of
Mr.
Thomson
's
kinsman
;
Colin
Campbell
passed
as
a
Mr.
Glen
;
and
to
Cluny
,
when
I
came
to
that
part
of
my
tale
,
I
gave
the
name
of
"
Mr.
Jameson
,
a
Highland
chief
.
"
It
was
truly
the
most
open
farce
,
and
I
wondered
that
the
lawyer
should
care
to
keep
it
up
;
but
,
after
all
,
it
was
quite
in
the
taste
of
that
age
,
when
there
were
two
parties
in
the
state
,
and
quiet
persons
,
with
no
very
high
opinions
of
their
own
,
sought
out
every
cranny
to
avoid
offence
to
either
.
"
Well
,
well
,
"
said
the
lawyer
,
when
I
had
quite
done
,
"
this
is
a
great
epic
,
a
great
Odyssey
of
yours
.
You
must
tell
it
,
sir
,
in
a
sound
Latinity
when
your
scholarship
is
riper
;
or
in
English
if
you
please
,
though
for
my
part
I
prefer
the
stronger
tongue
.
You
have
rolled
much
;
quae
regio
in
terris
--
what
parish
in
Scotland
(
to
make
a
homely
translation
)
has
not
been
filled
with
your
wanderings
?
You
have
shown
,
besides
,
a
singular
aptitude
for
getting
into
false
positions
;
and
,
yes
,
upon
the
whole
,
for
behaving
well
in
them
.
This
Mr.
Thomson
seems
to
me
a
gentleman
of
some
choice
qualities
,
though
perhaps
a
trifle
bloody-minded
.
It
would
please
me
none
the
worse
,
if
(
with
all
his
merits
)
he
were
soused
in
the
North
Sea
,
for
the
man
,
Mr.
David
,
is
a
sore
embarrassment
.
But
you
are
doubtless
quite
right
to
adhere
to
him
;
indubitably
,
he
adhered
to
you
.
It
comes
--
we
may
say
--
he
was
your
true
companion
;
nor
less
paribus
curis
vestigia
figit
,
for
I
dare
say
you
would
both
take
an
orra
thought
upon
the
gallows
.
Well
,
well
,
these
days
are
fortunately
by
;
and
I
think
(
speaking
humanly
)
that
you
are
near
the
end
of
your
troubles
.
"
As
he
thus
moralised
on
my
adventures
,
he
looked
upon
me
with
so
much
humour
and
benignity
that
I
could
scarce
contain
my
satisfaction
.
I
had
been
so
long
wandering
with
lawless
people
,
and
making
my
bed
upon
the
hills
and
under
the
bare
sky
,
that
to
sit
once
more
in
a
clean
,
covered
house
,
and
to
talk
amicably
with
a
gentleman
in
broadcloth
,
seemed
mighty
elevations
.
Even
as
I
thought
so
,
my
eye
fell
on
my
unseemly
tatters
,
and
I
was
once
more
plunged
in
confusion
.
But
the
lawyer
saw
and
understood
me
.
He
rose
,
called
over
the
stair
to
lay
another
plate
,
for
Mr.
Balfour
would
stay
to
dinner
,
and
led
me
into
a
bedroom
in
the
upper
part
of
the
house
Here
he
set
before
me
water
and
soap
,
and
a
comb
;
and
laid
out
some
clothes
that
belonged
to
his
son
;
and
here
,
with
another
apposite
tag
,
he
left
me
to
my
toilet
.
I
made
what
change
I
could
in
my
appearance
;
and
blithe
was
I
to
look
in
the
glass
and
find
the
beggarman
a
thing
of
the
past
,
and
David
Balfour
come
to
life
again
.
And
yet
I
was
ashamed
of
the
change
too
,
and
,
above
all
,
of
the
borrowed
clothes
.
When
I
had
done
,
Mr.
Rankeillor
caught
me
on
the
stair
,
made
me
his
compliments
,
and
had
me
again
into
the
cabinet
.
