He
walked
all
the
way
home
very
dismally
,
and
dined
alone
with
Briggs
.
He
was
very
kind
to
her
and
grateful
for
her
love
and
watchfulness
over
the
boy
.
His
conscience
smote
him
that
he
had
borrowed
Briggs
's
money
and
aided
in
deceiving
her
.
They
talked
about
little
Rawdon
a
long
time
,
for
Becky
only
came
home
to
dress
and
go
out
to
dinner
--
and
then
he
went
off
uneasily
to
drink
tea
with
Lady
Jane
,
and
tell
her
of
what
had
happened
,
and
how
little
Rawdon
went
off
like
a
trump
,
and
how
he
was
to
wear
a
gown
and
little
knee-breeches
,
and
how
young
Blackball
,
Jack
Blackball
's
son
,
of
the
old
regiment
,
had
taken
him
in
charge
and
promised
to
be
kind
to
him
.
In
the
course
of
a
week
,
young
Blackball
had
constituted
little
Rawdon
his
fag
,
shoe-black
,
and
breakfast
toaster
;
initiated
him
into
the
mysteries
of
the
Latin
Grammar
;
and
thrashed
him
three
or
four
times
,
but
not
severely
.
The
little
chap
's
good-natured
honest
face
won
his
way
for
him
.
He
only
got
that
degree
of
beating
which
was
,
no
doubt
,
good
for
him
;
and
as
for
blacking
shoes
,
toasting
bread
,
and
fagging
in
general
,
were
these
offices
not
deemed
to
be
necessary
parts
of
every
young
English
gentleman
's
education
?
Our
business
does
not
lie
with
the
second
generation
and
Master
Rawdon
's
life
at
school
,
otherwise
the
present
tale
might
be
carried
to
any
indefinite
length
.
The
Colonel
went
to
see
his
son
a
short
time
afterwards
and
found
the
lad
sufficiently
well
and
happy
,
grinning
and
laughing
in
his
little
black
gown
and
little
breeches
.
His
father
sagaciously
tipped
Blackball
,
his
master
,
a
sovereign
,
and
secured
that
young
gentleman
's
good-will
towards
his
fag
.
As
a
protege
of
the
great
Lord
Steyne
,
the
nephew
of
a
County
member
,
and
son
of
a
Colonel
and
C.B.
,
whose
name
appeared
in
some
of
the
most
fashionable
parties
in
the
Morning
Post
,
perhaps
the
school
authorities
were
disposed
not
to
look
unkindly
on
the
child
.
He
had
plenty
of
pocket-money
,
which
he
spent
in
treating
his
comrades
royally
to
raspberry
tarts
,
and
he
was
often
allowed
to
come
home
on
Saturdays
to
his
father
,
who
always
made
a
jubilee
of
that
day
.
When
free
,
Rawdon
would
take
him
to
the
play
,
or
send
him
thither
with
the
footman
;
and
on
Sundays
he
went
to
church
with
Briggs
and
Lady
Jane
and
his
cousins
.
Rawdon
marvelled
over
his
stories
about
school
,
and
fights
,
and
fagging
.
Before
long
,
he
knew
the
names
of
all
the
masters
and
the
principal
boys
as
well
as
little
Rawdon
himself
.
He
invited
little
Rawdon
's
crony
from
school
,
and
made
both
the
children
sick
with
pastry
,
and
oysters
,
and
porter
after
the
play
.
He
tried
to
look
knowing
over
the
Latin
grammar
when
little
Rawdon
showed
him
what
part
of
that
work
he
was
"
in
.
"
"
Stick
to
it
,
my
boy
,
"
he
said
to
him
with
much
gravity
,
"
there
's
nothing
like
a
good
classical
education
!
Nothing
!
"
Becky
's
contempt
for
her
husband
grew
greater
every
day
.
"
Do
what
you
like
--
dine
where
you
please
--
go
and
have
ginger-beer
and
sawdust
at
Astley
's
,
or
psalm-singing
with
Lady
Jane
--
only
do
n't
expect
me
to
busy
myself
with
the
boy
.
I
have
your
interests
to
attend
to
,
as
you
ca
n't
attend
to
them
yourself
.
I
should
like
to
know
where
you
would
have
been
now
,
and
in
what
sort
of
a
position
in
society
,
if
I
had
not
looked
after
you
.
"
Indeed
,
nobody
wanted
poor
old
Rawdon
at
the
parties
whither
Becky
used
to
go
.
She
was
often
asked
without
him
now
.
She
talked
about
great
people
as
if
she
had
the
fee-simple
of
May
Fair
,
and
when
the
Court
went
into
mourning
,
she
always
wore
black
.
Little
Rawdon
being
disposed
of
,
Lord
Steyne
,
who
took
such
a
parental
interest
in
the
affairs
of
this
amiable
poor
family
,
thought
that
their
expenses
might
be
very
advantageously
curtailed
by
the
departure
of
Miss
Briggs
,
and
that
Becky
was
quite
clever
enough
to
take
the
management
of
her
own
house
.
It
has
been
narrated
in
a
former
chapter
how
the
benevolent
nobleman
had
given
his
protegee
money
to
pay
off
her
little
debt
to
Miss
Briggs
,
who
however
still
remained
behind
with
her
friends
;
whence
my
lord
came
to
the
painful
conclusion
that
Mrs.
Crawley
had
made
some
other
use
of
the
money
confided
to
her
than
that
for
which
her
generous
patron
had
given
the
loan
.
However
,
Lord
Steyne
was
not
so
rude
as
to
impart
his
suspicions
upon
this
head
to
Mrs.
Becky
,
whose
feelings
might
be
hurt
by
any
controversy
on
the
money-question
,
and
who
might
have
a
thousand
painful
reasons
for
disposing
otherwise
of
his
lordship
's
generous
loan
.
But
he
determined
to
satisfy
himself
of
the
real
state
of
the
case
,
and
instituted
the
necessary
inquiries
in
a
most
cautious
and
delicate
manner
.
In
the
first
place
he
took
an
early
opportunity
of
pumping
Miss
Briggs
.
That
was
not
a
difficult
operation
.
A
very
little
encouragement
would
set
that
worthy
woman
to
talk
volubly
and
pour
out
all
within
her
.
