Well, sir, Miss Saxon hearing he wished to marry the cook and take the cottage and keep boarders, let him rent it with furniture as it stands.

She and Mrs.Octagon are going back to town, and Mrs.Pill is going to have the cottage cleaned from cellar to attic before she marries Thomas and receives the boarder." "Oh.

So she has a boarder ?" "Yes, sir.

She wouldn't agree to Thomas taking the cottage as her husband, unless she had a boarder to start with, being afraid she and Thomas could not pay the rent.

So Thomas saw Mr.Clancy and he is coming to stop.
