I didn't see the young gentleman again until I waited on him and Mr.Glenthorpe at dinner in the upstairs sitting-room." "Very good.

Tell us what happened there." "I laid the table, and took up the dinner at half-past seven.

Those were Mr.Glenthorpe's orders.

When I went up the first time the table was covered with flints and fossils, which Mr.Glenthorpe was showing the young gentleman, and I helped Mr.Glenthorpe put these back into the cupboards, and then I laid the table.

When I took up the dinner the gentlemen sat down to it, and Mr.Glenthorpe rang for Mr.Benson, and told him to bring up some sherry.
