Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Whychcotte of St. John's, or the Court, the Camp, the Quarter-Deck, and the Cloister, Vol. 1 of 2
I would prefer being silent, returned Gower, in his usual calm and quiet manner. You will be able to form an accurate idea of his character from his own conversation. He is incapable of equivocation or deceit. I would rather that he should speak for himself, and that I should abstain from ob servation.
When I ask a simple question, quoth the Colonel, bluntly, I am ill satisfied with an answer that would suit a special pleader.
