"He evidently suspected you did have, but all's well that ends well; and now you will remember I made you another promise."
"You said you would find my uncle."
"I said I would find him if he were living."
"And can you succeed as you have in recovering this property?"
"I can and will, if he is alive. And now can I advise you?"
"Yes."
"Make your home here for the present, until such time as we report as concerns the whereabouts of your uncle."
"Now that I can pay my board I will gladly remain here. I propose to take music lessons and become a teacher. I shall be self-supporting. I am pretty well advanced in music already."
"That is good. Can we call and see you occasionally?"
