10/34 There's Mrs.Sockley--she 's took ill. He won't go there--that 's how I've caught him, my dear--but he pays her medicine, and she looks to him the same. He hate a sick house: but he pity a sick woman. Now, if I can only please him, I can always look on him as half a Dolphin, to say the least; and perhaps to-morrow I'll tell you who he is, and what, but not to-night; for there's his supper to get over, and that, they say, can be as bad as the busting of one of his own vats. That seem simple, now, don't it? |
