Well
,
I
keepit
that
bit
money
separate
--
it
was
a
great
expense
,
but
a
promise
is
a
promise
--
and
it
has
grown
by
now
to
be
a
matter
of
just
precisely
--
just
exactly
"
--
and
here
he
paused
and
stumbled
--
"
of
just
exactly
forty
pounds
!
"
This
last
he
rapped
out
with
a
sidelong
glance
over
his
shoulder
;
and
the
next
moment
added
,
almost
with
a
scream
,
"
Scots
!
"
The
pound
Scots
being
the
same
thing
as
an
English
shilling
,
the
difference
made
by
this
second
thought
was
considerable
;
I
could
see
,
besides
,
that
the
whole
story
was
a
lie
,
invented
with
some
end
which
it
puzzled
me
to
guess
;
and
I
made
no
attempt
to
conceal
the
tone
of
raillery
in
which
I
answered
--
"
O
,
think
again
,
sir
!
Pounds
sterling
,
I
believe
!
"
"
That
's
what
I
said
,
"
returned
my
uncle
:
"
pounds
sterling
!
And
if
you
'll
step
out-by
to
the
door
a
minute
,
just
to
see
what
kind
of
a
night
it
is
,
I
'll
get
it
out
to
ye
and
call
ye
in
again
.
"
I
did
his
will
,
smiling
to
myself
in
my
contempt
that
he
should
think
I
was
so
easily
to
be
deceived
.
It
was
a
dark
night
,
with
a
few
stars
low
down
;
and
as
I
stood
just
outside
the
door
,
I
heard
a
hollow
moaning
of
wind
far
off
among
the
hills
.
I
said
to
myself
there
was
something
thundery
and
changeful
in
the
weather
,
and
little
knew
of
what
a
vast
importance
that
should
prove
to
me
before
the
evening
passed
.
When
I
was
called
in
again
,
my
uncle
counted
out
into
my
hand
seven
and
thirty
golden
guinea
pieces
;
the
rest
was
in
his
hand
,
in
small
gold
and
silver
;
but
his
heart
failed
him
there
,
and
he
crammed
the
change
into
his
pocket
.
"
There
,
"
said
he
,
"
that
'll
show
you
!
I
'm
a
queer
man
,
and
strange
wi
'
strangers
;
but
my
word
is
my
bond
,
and
there
's
the
proof
of
it
.
"
Now
,
my
uncle
seemed
so
miserly
that
I
was
struck
dumb
by
this
sudden
generosity
,
and
could
find
no
words
in
which
to
thank
him
.
"
No
a
word
!
"
said
he
.
"
Nae
thanks
;
I
want
nae
thanks
.
I
do
my
duty
.
I
'm
no
saying
that
everybody
would
have
done
it
;
but
for
my
part
(
though
I
'm
a
careful
body
,
too
)
it
's
a
pleasure
to
me
to
do
the
right
by
my
brother
's
son
;
and
it
's
a
pleasure
to
me
to
think
that
now
we
'll
agree
as
such
near
friends
should
.
"
I
spoke
him
in
return
as
handsomely
as
I
was
able
;
but
all
the
while
I
was
wondering
what
would
come
next
,
and
why
he
had
parted
with
his
precious
guineas
;
for
as
to
the
reason
he
had
given
,
a
baby
would
have
refused
it
.
