He's heerd all about you from the sawbones in barnacles.' 'From my brother!' said Arabella, having some faint recognition of Sam's description.
'I don't rightly know which is your brother, miss,' replied Sam.

'Is it the dirtiest vun o' the two ?' 'Yes, yes, Mr.Weller,' returned Arabella, 'go on.

Make haste, pray.' 'Well, miss,' said Sam, 'he's heerd all about it from him; and it's the gov'nor's opinion that if you don't see him wery quick, the sawbones as we've been a-speakin' on, 'ull get as much extra lead in his head as'll rayther damage the dewelopment o' the orgins if they ever put it in spirits artervards.' 'Oh, what can I do to prevent these dreadful quarrels!' exclaimed Arabella.
'It's the suspicion of a priory 'tachment as is the cause of it all,' replied Sam.

'You'd better see him, miss.' 'But how ?--where ?'cried Arabella.

'I dare not leave the house alone.
My brother is so unkind, so unreasonable! I know how strange my talking thus to you may appear, Mr.Weller, but I am very, very unhappy--' and here poor Arabella wept so bitterly that Sam grew chivalrous.
'It may seem wery strange talkin' to me about these here affairs, miss,' said Sam, with great vehemence; 'but all I can say is, that I'm not only ready but villin' to do anythin' as'll make matters agreeable; and if chuckin' either o' them sawboneses out o' winder 'ull do it, I'm the man.' As Sam Weller said this, he tucked up his wristbands, at the imminent hazard of falling off the wall in so doing, to intimate his readiness to set to work immediately.
Flattering as these professions of good feeling were, Arabella resolutely declined (most unaccountably, as Sam thought) to avail herself of them.
