Of course I answered this note by going down with the boy to pay the money, where I found Mr. Micawber sitting in a corner, looking darkly at the Sheriff’s Officer who had effected the capture. On his release, he embraced me with the utmost fervour; and made an entry of the transaction in his pocketbook—being very particular, I recollect, about a halfpenny I inadvertently omitted from my statement of the total.
