I wish we had more noblemen like him.

He was an honest Tory in those days, and hand and glove with Ormond.

And he has acceded to the present Government, as I have done myself, for the peace and quiet of his country; for I cannot presume that great man to have been actuated, as violent folks pretend, with the fear of losing his places and regiment.
His testimonial, as you call it, Mr.Campbell, is perfectly satisfactory; and now, what have you got to say to this matter of the robbery ?" "Briefly this, if it please your worship,--that Mr.Morris might as weel charge it against the babe yet to be born, or against myself even, as against this young gentleman, Mr.Osbaldistone; for I am not only free to depone that the person whom he took for him was a shorter man, and a thicker man, but also, for I chanced to obtain a glisk of his visage, as his fause-face slipped aside, that he was a man of other features and complexion than those of this young gentleman, Mr.Osbaldistone.And I believe," he added, turning round with a natural, yet somewhat sterner air, to Mr.Morris, "that the gentleman will allow I had better opportunity to take cognisance wha were present on that occasion than he, being, I believe, much the cooler o' the twa." "I agree to it, sir--I agree to it perfectly," said Morris, shrinking back as Campbell moved his chair towards him to fortify his appeal--"And I incline, sir," he added, addressing Mr.Inglewood, "to retract my information as to Mr.Osbaldistone; and I request, sir, you will permit him, sir, to go about his business, and me to go about mine also; your worship may have business to settle with Mr.Campbell, and I am rather in haste to be gone." "Then, there go the declarations," said the Justice, throwing them into the fire--"And now you are at perfect liberty, Mr Osbaldistone.

And you, Mr.Morris, are set quite at your ease." "Ay," said Campbell, eyeing Morris as he assented with a rueful grin to the Justice's observations, "much like the ease of a tod under a pair of harrows--But fear nothing, Mr.Morris; you and I maun leave the house thegither.

I will see you safe--I hope you will not doubt my honour, when I say sae--to the next highway, and then we part company; and if we do not meet as friends in Scotland, it will be your ain fault." With such a lingering look of terror as the condemned criminal throws, when he is informed that the cart awaits him, Morris arose; but when on his legs, appeared to hesitate.
