This Stage of Fools (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from This Stage of Fools The description was not very attractive to the Oxford man, but being already uncomfortably conscious that his uncle did not think much of him, he made a gallant attempt to simulate an alacrity he could not feel. The introductions were duly effected, and, having procured a licence, Willy embarked on his career as a diamond broker without delay, equipped with a morocco-leather satchel furnished with many pockets, and designed to carry all the parcels that should be entrusted to him.
