thus:

ing returned to liis lodg¬
when. Chauncey had transacted ml
the important business we have recorded,
and not all his friend's good spirits could
him from almost despondency.
“My dpwn, old boy,” said Chauncey, “you’ll
sink down, if you show the whito
feather in this way. \ ou’re young enough
to work, and liko it—I never did.”
“It is not hard work—hard fighting
with the world, that I am fearing; it is
the effect of this day’s cruel trial upon
poor And Letty.”
then George told Chauncey all that
had passed.
“Well, you would bo so hastily honor¬
able,” replied Chauncey; “you had better
been advised by me—waited a day or
two until you had killed your uncle.”
cunning Georgo looked at his friend and sa saw a
twinkle in his eye; but Chaun¬
cey had his own reasons for saying no
more on the subject.
George was very ill the next morning
-too ill to go to tho timber yard; so

It was not so; but Capt. Ranger had
been to tho timber yard to see Mr. Poyn¬

suring him that Ins clerk must have come
into money, as ho had bought Prospect
house at a sum which he (Capt. pt. Kan- Ki

owever, left a commission with Sir.

timber merchant tho following particu¬

to Mrs. Captain Ranger would bo to in¬
voke a conjugal tempest; and in his ex¬
tremity ho had come to Mr. Bawk to in¬
tercede with liis clerk to transfer Ins

a
good natured fellow—too good natured—
and I will undertake to say that tho cap¬
tain shall have Prospect House for £4,-

“Four thousand pounds'.” exclaimed
Mr. Bawk.
“And not one shilling less,” said
Chauncey firmly. “Tho house is worth
