On the very day of
which we write, namely, the 10th of June 1715, Bolingbroke and Oxford were
impeached of high treason. He was still flashily dressed, with much obvious
jewellery and the shiniest of patent boots, but his general bearing and appearance
had altered for the worse. I
was in Lancashire, at our family seat, at the time you mention. The lips were straight and
pale, the chin aggressive, the nose indomitable. It’s all nonsense. I
know London better than you, and I have had to earn my own living. Will you go? You'll be paid handsomely for your trouble. Gosse was backing towards the table. Thames did not attempt to offer
him any consolation, for he was almost as much dejected. Evidently Ah Cum's luck had held good. He started a
dozen stories, but they all ended in the waste-basket.
