Capitolo 72
"No, gentleman; I only mentioned what I knew about him to hold the position
of this gentleman", pointing out the employee of the jeweler.
The old gentleman seemed to lose his/her interest in the prisoner
after the affirmation of Herbert, and he was escorted without the further delay
to the house of station, where a gold clock and the diamond encircle it was
both found on his/her person. It is as soon as essential to add that he was
tried and it condemned to a term of imprisonment in the very
city--Charlestown--where he had tried to steal Herbert.
"It so quickly is not always that punishment it reaches the
malefactor", said Melville. "St. Luigi won't be really proud of the
man that asks his/her citizen."
"Dishonesty doesn't seem to pay in its case", said Herbert,
thoughtfully.
"It never pays in some case, Herbert", says George Melville,
emphatically. "Even if a man could steal enough to live on, and
it was sure for him not to be open it would not enjoy his sick-gotten
earningses, as a honest man enjoys the money he works very hard for. But when
we add the risk of the discovery and the severe criminal punishment of imprisonment,
it seems a fatal error for some man to go beyond the confinements of
honesty and it enrolls him as a criminal."
"I agree with you, the Mr. Melville", said Herbert, thoughtfully. "ME
you don't think that I will ever be tried, but if I am, I will think of
this man and his/her rapid discovery."
When they reached the deposit, some front to four, George
Melville sent Herbert to the box-office to purchase tickets,
while he remained in the room of attended.
"I was able well as you get used Him to the duties to which I/you/they are probable
devolves on you", he said, with a smile.
Herbert had purchased the tickets and you/he/she was turning away, when to his
catches him he/she saw Ebenezer Graham digitize the deposit, while evidently working
under considerable excitement. He didn't see Herbert, so busy
it was him with thoughts of an unpleasant nature, you cultivate the greeted boy
him respectfully.
"Herbert Carr!" he said; "when it entered Boston?"
