The Last Chronicle of Barset

CHAPTER VIII
29/39

It is a trying situation for a clergyman." "I can understand all that; but I'll tell you why I have come.

I suppose this inquiry will finish the whole affair, and clear up whatever may be the difficulty.

But should it not do so, it may be just possible, Mrs.Crawley, that something may be said about bail.

I don't understand much about it, and I daresay you do not either; but if there should be anything of that sort, let Mr.Crawley name me.
A brother clergyman will be best, and I'll have some other gentleman with me." Then he left her, not waiting for any answer.
At the same time there was a conversation going on between Mr.Walker and another attorney standing behind him, Mr.Mason.

"I'll go to him," said Walker, "and try to arrange it." So Mr.Walker seated himself in the empty chair beside Mr.Crawley, and endeavoured to explain to the wretched man, that he would do well to allow Mr.Mason to assist him.
