Doctor Thorne

CHAPTER IV
19/36

There was no doubt, he said, that Scatcherd would supply the sum required at a lower rate of interest than that at which it could be procured through Umbleby's means.
"Very well," said the squire.

"I'll leave it in your hands, then.

I think ten thousand pounds will do.

And now I'll dress for dinner." And then the doctor left him.
Perhaps the reader will suppose after this that the doctor had some pecuniary interest of his own in arranging the squire's loans; or, at any rate, he will think that the squire must have so thought.

Not in the least; neither had he any such interest, nor did the squire think that he had any.
