I said: "OUR GLORIOUS CONSTITUTION in CHURCH and STATE." Another member of the Eight Club was Peartree; also member of the Royal College of Surgeons.

Mr.Peartree is not accountable to me for his opinions, and I say no more of them here than that he attends the poor gratis whenever they want him, and is not the parish doctor.

Mr.
Peartree may justify it to the grasp of _his_ mind thus to do his republican utmost to bring an appointed officer into contempt.

Suffice it that Mr.Peartree can never justify it to the grasp of _mine_.
Between Peartree and Kimber there was a sickly sort of feeble-minded alliance.

It came under my particular notice when I sold off Kimber by auction.
