Book excerpt: Excerpt from Delaware or the Ruined Family; A Tale, Vol. 2 of 3 The hours flew as lightly at Emberton Park as if they had plucked all the down from the wings of their good father Time, in order to furnish their own soft pinions; and many of the days which intervened between the signature of the bill for twenty - five thousand pounds, given by Sir Sidney Delaware to Lord Ashborough, and the time when it was to become due, slipped away unnoticed. The worthy baronet suffered them to pass with very great tranquillity, relying perfectly upon the word of Mr Tims, that the money would be ready at the appointed period. As comfort, and happiness, too, are far less loquacious qualities than grief and anxiety, Sir Sidney thought it unnecessary to enter into any farther particulars with Burrel, than by merely thanking him, in general terms, for the advice he had given; and by informing him that, in con sequence of his son's second journey to London, his affairs were likely to be finally arranged in' the course of a month or two. The miser also suffering himself, for a certain time, to be governed by his nephew - who well knew the only two strings which moved him like a puppet.
