'] Dear me . . This is a big affair !
68 THE VOYSEY INHERITANCE [act m HUGH. [Following his own line of thought. '] Quite apart from the rights and wrongs of this, only a very able man could have kept a straight face to the world all these years, as Pater did.
BOOTH. I suppose he sometimes made money by these speculations.
EDWARD. Very often. His own expenditure was heavy, as you know.
BOOTH. [With gratitude for favors received. '] He was a very generous man.
HUGH. Did nobody ever suspect him?
...EDWARD. You see, Hugh, when there was any danger . . When a trust had to be wound up . . He'd make a great effort, and put the accounts straight.
BOOTH. Then he did put some accounts straight?
EDWARD. Yes, when he couldn't help himself.
BOOTH looks very enquiring, and then squares him- self up to the subject.
BOOTH. Now look here, Edward. You told us that he told you that it was the object of his life to put these ac- counts straight. Then you laughed at that. Now you tell me that he did put some accounts straight.
