"You'll not find him, then; and he wants his money. It would be a pity to vex him."
"It was to you he lent the money," said Sir Bale.
"Yes."
"Well, you are the proper person to find him out and pay him," urged Sir Bale.
"Perhaps so; but he invites you; and if you don't go, he may be offended, and you may hear no more from him."
"We'll try. When can you go? There are races to come off next week, for once and away, at Langton. I should not mind trying my luck there. What do you say?
"You can go there and pay him, and ask the same question—what horses, I mean, are to win. All the county are to be there; and plenty of money will change hands."
"I'll try," said Feltram.
"When will you go?"
"To-morrow," he answered.
