Quotes
-
Lawyer Dowling : [At the cemetery: immediately after the burial of Bridget Blifil] Sir, sometime before your mother died, she gave me a letter. Her instructions were to hand it over to Mr. Allworthy as she was buried.
Blifil : Hand it to me. I will give it to my uncle.
Lawyer Dowling : She expressly said into no hands but Mr. Allworthy's.
Blifil : Lawyer Dowling, if my uncle lives, he will need a new steward. I intend to recommend you.
Lawyer Dowling : You are most kind, sir.
[Hands the letter over to Blifil]
