suspicious�察�and in this way she has pursued her object of detecting

come to pass that she brought the Chadbands and Mr Tulkinghorn 

together�察�and conferred with Mr Tulkinghorn on the change in Mr

Bucket�察�who has seen through the transparency of Mrs Snagsby¨s

upon him�此�except that he once or twice looks towards Mr Bucket�察�

as relying on that officer alone of all mankind。 

    ^Very     good�察院  �says   Mr   Bucket。     ^Now     I  understand     you�察  �you 

know�察  �and�察  �being   deputed   by   Sir   Leicester   Dedlock�察  �Baronet�察  �to 

look into this little matter�察院�again Sir Leicester mechanically bows 

in   confirmation      of  the  statement�察     �can   give   it   my   fair   and  full 

attention。   Now   I   won¨t   allude   to   conspiring   to   extort   money�察  �or 

anything of that sort�察�because we are men and women of the world 

here�察�and our object is to make things pleasant。 But I will tell you 

what   I  do   wonder   at�察   �I   am   surprised   that   you   should    think   of 

making      a  noise   below     in  the  hall。  It  was   so   opposed     to  your 

interests。 That¨s what I look at。 ̄ 

    ^We wanted to get in�察院�pleads Mr Smallweed。 

    ^Why�察�of course�察�you wanted to get in�察院�Mr Bucket assents with 

cheerfulness�此 �but for a old gentleman at your time of life!what I 

call truly venerable�察�mind you� �with his wits sharpened�察�as I have 

no    doubt    they   are�察 �by   the  loss  of  the   use   of  his  limbs�察  �which 

occasions   all    his  animation   to   mount   up   into      his  head!not      to 

consider   that   if   he   don¨t   keep   such  a   business   as   the   present   as 

close as possible it can¨t be worth a mag to him�察�is so curious� �You 

see    your   temper     got   the  better    of  you�察  �that¨s   where    you   lost 

ground�察院�says Mr Bucket�察�in an argumentative and friendly way。 

    ^I only said I wouldn¨t go�察�without one of the servants came up 

to Sir Leicester Dedlock�察院�returns Mr Smallweed。 

    ^That¨s it� �That¨s where your temper got the better of you。 Now�察�

you keep it under another time�察�and you¨ll make money by it。 Shall 

I ring for them to carry you down�拭院�

    ^When   are   we   to   hear   more   of   this�拭院  �Mrs   Chadband   sternly 

demands。

    ^Bless     your   heart    for  a  true   woman�      �Always     curious�察   �your 

delightful sex is� 院�replies Mr Bucket�察�with gallantry。 ^I shall have 

the    pleasure     of  giving   you    a  call  tomorrow      or   next   day!not 

forgetting Mr Smallweed and his proposal of two fifty。 ̄ 

    ^Five hundred� 院�exclaims Mr Smallweed。 

    ^All right� �Nominally five hundred�察院�Mr Bucket has his hand on 

the   bell´rope�察   �shall   I   wish   you   good   day   for   the   present�察  �on   the 

part   of   myself   and   the   gentleman   of   the   house�拭院  �he   asks   in   an 

insinuating tone。 

    Nobody having the hardihood to object to his doing so�察�he does 

it�察�and the party retire as they came up。 Mr Bucket follows them to 

the door�察�and�察�returning�察�says with an air of serious business�此� 

    ^Sir    Leicester     Dedlock�察     �Baronet�察    �it¨s  for   you   to   consider 

whether or not to buy this up。 I should recommend�察�on the whole�察�

it¨s   being bought  up   myself�察�and   I   think   it  may  be   bought   pretty 

cheap。 You see�察�that little pickled cucumber of a Mrs Snagsby has 

been used by all sides of the speculation�察�and has done a deal more 

harm in bringing odds and ends together than if she had meant it。 

Mr   Tulkinghorn�察  �deceased�察  �he   held   all   these   horses   in   his   hand�察�

and could have drove ¨em his own way�察�I haven¨t a doubt�察�but he 

was   fetched   off   the   box   head´foremost�察  �and   now   they   have   got 

their   legs   over   the   traces�察  �and   are   all   dragging   and   pulling   their 

own ways。 So it is�察�and such is life。 The cat¨s away�察�and the mice 

they   play�察   �the  frost   breaks   up�察  �and    the  water   runs。    Now�察   �with 

regard to the party to be apprehended。 ̄ 

    Sir   Leicester   seems   to   wake�察  �though   his   eyes   have   been   wide 

open�察�and he looks intently at Mr Bucket�察�as Mr Bucket refers to 

his watch。 

    ^The party to be apprehended is now in this house�察院�proceeds

Mr   Bucket�察  �putting   up   his   watch   with   a   steady   hand�察  �and   with 

rising   spirits�察   �and     I¨m   about   to   take    her   into   custody   in    your 

presence。   Sir   Leicester   Dedlock�察  �Baronet�察  �don¨t   you   say   a   word�察�

nor   yet   stir。   There¨ll   be   no   noise�察  �and   no   disturbance   at   all。   I¨ll 

come   back   in   the   course   of   the   evening   if   agreeable   to   you�察  �and 

endeavour to meet your wishes respecting this unfortunate family 

matter�察     �and    the   nobbiest      way    of   keeping      it  quiet。   Now      Sir 

Leicester   Dedlock�察  �Baronet�察  �don¨t   you   be   nervous   on   account   of 

the  apprehension at  present  coming  off。  You  shall   see   the   whole 

case clear�察�from first to last。 ̄ 

    Mr   Bucket   rings�察  �goes   to   the   door�察  �briefly   whispers   Mercury�察�

shuts the door�察�and stands behind it with his arms folded。 After a 

suspense of a minute or two�察�the door slowly opens�察�and a French 

woman enters。 Mademoiselle Hortense。 

    The moment she is   in   the   room�察  �Mr  Bucket  claps   the   door  to�察�

and     puts    his   back     against    it。  The     suddenness        of  the    noise 

occasions   her   to   turn�察  �and   then�察  �for   the   first   time�察  �she   sees   Sir 

Leicester Dedlock in his chair。 

    ^I ask your pardon�察院�she mutters hurriedly。 ^They tell me there 

was no one here。 ̄ 

    Her   step   towards   the   door   brings   her   front   to   front   with   Mr 

Bucket。   Suddenly  a spasm shoots   across   her   face�察  �and   she   turns 

deadly pale。 

    ^This   is   my   lodger�察  �Sir   Leicester   Dedlock�察院  �says   Mr   Bucket�察�

nodding at  her。   ^This   foreign   young  woman   has   been   my   lodger 

for some weeks back。 ̄ 

    ^What   do   Sir   Leicester   care   for   that�察  �you   think�察  �my   angel�拭院�

returns Mademoiselle�察�in a jocular strain。 

    ^Why�察�my angel�察院�returns Mr Bucket�察 �we shall see。 ̄
