JUSTICE
That lives in the next street?
MISS FLYN
The same——now I have him sure.
JUSTICE Let him be sent for. I believe the gentleman to be respectable, and will accept his security.
FLINT Why do I waste my time, where I have no business? None—I have none any more in the world—none.
Enter Pendulous.
PENDULOUS
What is the meaning of this extraordinary summons?—Maria here?
FLINT
Know you any thing of my daughter, Sir?
PENDULOUS Sir, I neither know her nor yourself, nor why I am brought hither; but for this lady, if you have any thing against her, I will answer it with my life and fortunes.
JUSTICE
Make out the bail-bond.
OFFICER (Surveying Pendulous.) Please, your worship, before you take that gentleman's bond, may I have leave to put in a word?
