But they belong to me." "They should not be kept in a private house like this at all, if they are worth all that money." "If I were to let them go, Mr.Camperdown would get them.

There's nothing he wouldn't do to get them.

Oh, Frederic, I hope you'll stand to me, and not see me injured.

Of course I only want them for my darling child." Frederic's face had become very long, and he was much disturbed in his mind.

He could only suggest that he himself would go and see Mr.
Camperdown, and ascertain what ought to be done.
