There
,
'
answered
Fettes
hoarsely
,
pointing
to
a
cupboard
in
the
corner
.
'
Give
me
the
key
,
then
,
'
said
the
other
,
calmly
,
holding
out
his
hand
.
There
was
an
instant
's
hesitation
,
and
the
die
was
cast
.
Macfarlane
could
not
suppress
a
nervous
twitch
,
the
infinitesimal
mark
of
an
immense
relief
,
as
he
felt
the
key
between
his
fingers
.
He
opened
the
cupboard
,
brought
out
pen
and
ink
and
a
paper-book
that
stood
in
one
compartment
,
and
separated
from
the
funds
in
a
drawer
a
sum
suitable
to
the
occasion
.
'
Now
,
look
here
,
'
he
said
,
'
there
is
the
payment
made
--
first
proof
of
your
good
faith
:
first
step
to
your
security
.
You
have
now
to
clinch
it
by
a
second
.
Enter
the
payment
in
your
book
,
and
then
you
for
your
part
may
defy
the
devil
.
'
The
next
few
seconds
were
for
Fettes
an
agony
of
thought
;
but
in
balancing
his
terrors
it
was
the
most
immediate
that
triumphed
.
Any
future
difficulty
seemed
almost
welcome
if
he
could
avoid
a
present
quarrel
with
Macfarlane
.
He
set
down
the
candle
which
he
had
been
carrying
all
this
time
,
and
with
a
steady
hand
entered
the
date
,
the
nature
,
and
the
amount
of
the
transaction
.
'
And
now
,
'
said
Macfarlane
,
'
it
's
only
fair
that
you
should
pocket
the
lucre
.
I
've
had
my
share
already
.
By
the
bye
,
when
a
man
of
the
world
falls
into
a
bit
of
luck
,
has
a
few
shillings
extra
in
his
pocket
--
I
'm
ashamed
to
speak
of
it
,
but
there
's
a
rule
of
conduct
in
the
case
.
No
treating
,
no
purchase
of
expensive
class-books
,
no
squaring
of
old
debts
;
borrow
,
do
n't
lend
.
'
'
Macfarlane
,
'
began
Fettes
,
still
somewhat
hoarsely
,
'
I
have
put
my
neck
in
a
halter
to
oblige
you
.
'
'
To
oblige
me
?
'
cried
Wolfe
.
'
Oh
,
come
!
You
did
,
as
near
as
I
can
see
the
matter
,
what
you
downright
had
to
do
in
self
--
defence
.
Suppose
I
got
into
trouble
,
where
would
you
be
?
This
second
little
matter
flows
clearly
from
the
first
.
Mr.
Gray
is
the
continuation
of
Miss
Galbraith
.
You
ca
n't
begin
and
then
stop
.
If
you
begin
,
you
must
keep
on
beginning
;
that
's
the
truth
.
No
rest
for
the
wicked
.
