"
I
'm
a
gentleman
though
I
AM
your
son
,
sir
,
"
George
answered
haughtily
.
"
Any
communications
which
you
have
to
make
to
me
,
or
any
orders
which
you
may
please
to
give
,
I
beg
may
be
couched
in
that
kind
of
language
which
I
am
accustomed
to
hear
.
"
Whenever
the
lad
assumed
his
haughty
manner
,
it
always
created
either
great
awe
or
great
irritation
in
the
parent
.
Old
Osborne
stood
in
secret
terror
of
his
son
as
a
better
gentleman
than
himself
;
and
perhaps
my
readers
may
have
remarked
in
their
experience
of
this
Vanity
Fair
of
ours
,
that
there
is
no
character
which
a
low-minded
man
so
much
mistrusts
as
that
of
a
gentleman
.
"
My
father
did
n't
give
me
the
education
you
have
had
,
nor
the
advantages
you
have
had
,
nor
the
money
you
have
had
.
If
I
had
kept
the
company
SOME
FOLKS
have
had
through
MY
MEANS
,
perhaps
my
son
would
n't
have
any
reason
to
brag
,
sir
,
of
his
SUPERIORITY
and
WEST
END
AIRS
(
these
words
were
uttered
in
the
elder
Osborne
's
most
sarcastic
tones
)
.
But
it
was
n't
considered
the
part
of
a
gentleman
,
in
MY
time
,
for
a
man
to
insult
his
father
.
If
I
'd
done
any
such
thing
,
mine
would
have
kicked
me
downstairs
,
sir
.
"
"
I
never
insulted
you
,
sir
.
I
said
I
begged
you
to
remember
your
son
was
a
gentleman
as
well
as
yourself
.
I
know
very
well
that
you
give
me
plenty
of
money
,
"
said
George
(
fingering
a
bundle
of
notes
which
he
had
got
in
the
morning
from
Mr.
Chopper
)
.
"
You
tell
it
me
often
enough
,
sir
.
There
's
no
fear
of
my
forgetting
it
.
"
"
I
wish
you
'd
remember
other
things
as
well
,
sir
,
"
the
sire
answered
.
"
I
wish
you
'd
remember
that
in
this
house
--
so
long
as
you
choose
to
HONOUR
it
with
your
COMPANY
,
Captain
--
I
'm
the
master
,
and
that
name
,
and
that
that
--
that
you
--
that
I
say
--
"
"
That
what
,
sir
?
"
George
asked
,
with
scarcely
a
sneer
,
filling
another
glass
of
claret
.
"
--
--
!
"
burst
out
his
father
with
a
screaming
oath
--
"
that
the
name
of
those
Sedleys
never
be
mentioned
here
,
sir
--
not
one
of
the
whole
damned
lot
of
'em
,
sir
.
"
"
It
was
n't
I
,
sir
,
that
introduced
Miss
Sedley
's
name
.
It
was
my
sisters
who
spoke
ill
of
her
to
Miss
Swartz
;
and
by
Jove
I
'll
defend
her
wherever
I
go
.
Nobody
shall
speak
lightly
of
that
name
in
my
presence
.
Our
family
has
done
her
quite
enough
injury
already
,
I
think
,
and
may
leave
off
reviling
her
now
she
's
down
.
I
'll
shoot
any
man
but
you
who
says
a
word
against
her
.
"
"
Go
on
,
sir
,
go
on
,
"
the
old
gentleman
said
,
his
eyes
starting
out
of
his
head
.
