Annual salary 5 pounds.

A Master of Arts would be preferred." 'There!' said Ralph, folding the paper again.

'Let him get that situation, and his fortune is made.' 'But he is not a Master of Arts,' said Mrs Nickleby.
'That,' replied Ralph, 'that, I think, can be got over.' 'But the salary is so small, and it is such a long way off, uncle!' faltered Kate.
