What did he pay for his lodgings ? ' 156 SHEPHERDS ALL AND MAIDENS FAIR.
* He had a single room, with the use of a sitting-room, for five shillings a week. ' * I see/ John went through a little calculation. 'Five shil- lings a week for lodgings ; two shillings for breakfast ; seven shiUings for dinner; half-a-crown for tea and supper ; a couple of shillings for washing ; eighteenpence for sundries — that makes only fifty-two pounds a year. What do you think he did with the rest ? ' * He had to
...dress himself 'Very well, fifteen pounds — sixty-seven pounds — leaving fifty-three pounds. What did he do with that fifty-three pounds — more than a pound a week ? ' Lettice hung her head.
' Indeed/ she said, ' I am afraid he spent it all on amuse- ments. ' John Ashton was silent. There was, indeed, nothing to say. To this young backwoodsman, who spent nothing at all a year in drink, tobacco, or amusements, unless shooting is an amusement, the thought of a boy of seventeen, throwing away a pound a week in mere pleasures, with nothing afterwards to show for it, was simply dreadful, wild extravagance.
