:07:01
There's the Mohune crest.
:07:10
l may as well tell you that l have
no affection for the name you bear.
:07:14
Nor has anyone in these parts.
:07:16
Moonfleet's had its bellyful
of the Mohunes.
:07:18
Mohune justice, Mohune tyranny,
Mohune pride!
:07:26
Come...
:07:27
Don't let's quarrel
on such short acquaintance.
:07:31
Drink up, John Mohune.
:07:39
Go on, sit down.
:07:45
What became of your mother
in the great world?
:07:49
How did she fare when
her family fortunes went to smash?
:07:52
After my father died,
she taught school.
:07:56
And l cleaned out grates and things.
And ran errands.
:07:59
- Did you like that?
- The exercise was beneficial.
:08:06
Why did she send you to me?
Was there no one else?
:08:09
No one but you, sir.
:08:10
What am l supposed to do with you?
Make you a pillar of society,
:08:13
like myself?
:08:15
Thank you, sir.
:08:16
What do you mean by that?
:08:18
lt's nice to have a friend.
:08:20
A friend!
You disabuse yourself of that whimsy!
:08:25
Your mother presumed
on a piece of folly
:08:27
that both of us lived to regret!
:08:29
The Mohunes sawto that.
:08:31
They married her off
to the first available cousin
:08:34
and they shipped me to the devil
by the quickest road.
:08:37
But the devil and l
became fast friends.
:08:40
As everyone in Moonfleet
will tell you.
:08:50
Take him upstairs, put him to bed.
:08:54
Did they look after you
while l was away?
