and his lordship seemed to be an open-handed old gentleman.

Of a surety it would not do to act precipitately in this matter,

but the alternative of taking his document to Barham must be

fully considered. Rensley would be bound to pay well for this

precious paper, but would not my lord be bound to pay better?

This led to a fresh thought: once sold to Rensley, there was an

end to the business, so far as Mr Markham was concerned. But

he could dimly perceive years ahead if he made Barham his

man. Barham would buy the paper, true, but even that would

not make Barham feel quite safe. He could surely be further

bled on fear of disclosure. True there could be nothing proved

without written evidence, but Mr Markham could imagine

that even a verbal accusation with the paper safely destroyed

would prove mighty uncomfortable for my lord. Mr Markham

believed that he might easily hold my lord under his thumb for

a good many years to come. He licked his lips at this thought,

but decided that the thing must be earnestly weighed. He

would sleep on it.
