A 'smasher'-- that's the word-a coiner of false money.

Why else should he have this metal sent him, and that great smoky chimney of his going all day ?" "Why can you not leave him alone, father ?" expostulated Robert.

"You seem to think of nothing but his money.

If he had not a penny he would still be a very kind-hearted, pleasant gentleman." Old McIntyre burst into a hoarse laugh.
"I like to hear you preach," said he.

"Without a penny, indeed! Do you think that you would dance attendance upon him if he were a poor man?
Do you think that Laura would ever have looked twice at him?
You know as well as I do that she is marrying him only for his money." Robert gave a cry of dismay.
