At length she lifts her eyes, and he, flinging the parchment at her feet, cries, roughly,— "Yet, in spite of what you say, you turn from me, you despise me," exclaims he, with some growing excitement. So the grudge, being well watered, grew and flourished, and at last, as I said, the old man made a will one night, in the presence of the gardener and his nephew, who witnessed it, leaving all he possessed—save the title and some outside property, which he did not possess—to his younger son.
