Grob. And mean to settle here.
Clar. I wish you success.
Grob. But there is an other, who wishes to do the same,--one Benninger.

Clar. I am a carpenter.
Grob. Very right. But then you are the Deputy's father. Benninger, as I am well informed, has secretly offered your son two thousand dollars by way of present.
