You none of you guess, I believe, that the young scapegrace was off to Australia when his penitent fool of a guardian thought he had shut himself up somewhere, all in the dumps, because of their quarrel ? When we were good friends together, he told us all about it ; and if he had behaved as he ought to have done, I would never have said a word to any body on the subject — but he has provoked me, I won't deny it.
