However, I do not know but you will think that they have committed this mistake who invited me to speak to you to-day. In my capacity of surveyor I have often talked with some of you, my employers, at your dinner-tables, after having gone round and round and behind your farming, and ascertained exactly what its limits were. Moreover, taking a surveyor's and a naturalist's lib- erty, I have been in the habit of going across your lots much of tener than is usual, as many of you, per- haps to your... sorrow, are aware. Yet many of you, to my relief, have seemed not to be aware of it ; and when I came across you in some out-of-the-way nook of your farms, have inquired, with an air of surprise, if I were not lost, since you had never seen me in that part of the town or county before ; when, if the truth were known, and it had not been for betraying my secret, I might with more propriety have inquired if you were not lost, since I had never seen you there before. I have several times shown the proprietor the shortest way out of his wood-lot.
