My Derby Sweep 245 



the too awful fiasco ; but even now I have this 

 consolation, that perhaps if I draw "Sceptre" 

 in some other sweep, it will lodge me in the 

 institution to be benefited by my uncle's 

 will, and I may yet have the grim satisfac- 

 tion of knowing that my dear uncle has not 

 quite " done " me, and that his money is 

 being utilised for the benefit of his luckless 

 and disinherited nephew.
