But I am affected by your trouble. I should be glad to be of service to your son. Whilst we have talked I have been thinking, and if he is prepared to accept the position I am quite willing that he should take the Minorca out and home from the West Indies this voyage on the terms I am in the habit of giving—twelve pounds a month and a commission on the earnings of the voyage.",These and a few further words brought them to the gateway of Old Harbour House. They entered and found Miss Acton in the dining-room.,"Your guardians are with you I suppose?" said Erie, as he turned to go.，"Tut, tut," cried Maddoc, "what matter such trifles as these at this time? And now," turning to their host, "if you will honor us?"，"Gee whitticker!" exclaimed Billy. "I wish now I hadn't promised you I'd come in. All right, lead on.
