He hopes Irving will not pay the Board of Green Cloth. Russell will not unless compelled, and thinks there is no compulsion, so they should agree "Never". Irving vanished like Ariel the last Thursday. Russell did not get away until 4 o'clock with a far from "goodly company" of knights - to look at. |
