I want six hundred now, or indeed eight if you can, and I had some notion of taking a day or two's shooting.

How is the game on the glebe?
Has it been well preserved, do you know ?" "I am not aware," said the proctor, "that any one has shot over the glebe lands this season; but if you take my advice, sir, you will expose yourself as little as you can in the neighborhood.

There are not two individuals in the parish so unpopular as Dr.Turbot and your humble servant." "In that case, then," replied the other, "the less delay I make here the better--you can let me have six hundred, I hope ?" "I certainly told you, sir," replied Purcel, with something of a determined and desperate coolness about him, "that I had money for you, and so I have." "Thank you, Purcel; I must say you certainly have, on all occasions, exerted yourself faithfully and honestly in support of my interests." "Money, sir," pursued the other, without appearing to look to the right or to the left, "I have for you.
