“If you think best, Harry.”
“I do think best. It is evident that Squire Turner has not been faithful to your interests. If you wish, I will act as your agent.”

“I have seen something of the world, mother, since I left home. I shall not hesitate to take charge of the business. Mr. Robinson will assist me.”
“Certainly. I shall be happy to do whatever I can.”
“Then, Mr. Robinson, if it would not be too much trouble, and you can spare the time, will you give me a history of the case, and explain how matters at present stand?”
“I see,” said the lawyer, smiling, “that you know how to come to the point. I will endeavor to imitate you.”
He made a brief and comprehensive statement, which Harry readily understood.
