capacity he showed a genius for organisation and the control of men.

Sam Pollex, basking in the continual sunshine of Maidy Susan's smile,
became the Squire's gardener, and was very proud of the results of his
handiwork. He grew a few inches, and by the time he was twenty stood a
little higher than Susan's shoulder.  Convinced that he would grow no
more, he asked her to marry him, pointing out that though she was older
in years, he was older in knowledge: that she looked younger than she
was, and he older.  They made a match of it, Susan's wedding dress being
fashioned out of a blue silk recovered from the cave.

A month or two after the day of the great discovery, the Collector at
Plymouth paid a visit to Polkerran, and decided that Penwarden was too
old for his post.  This gave deep offence to the old man.  "Too old, be
I?" said he; "we'll see about that."  The Squire offered him the post of
overseer at his new mine, which he accepted.  His indignation at the
slight put upon him in the King's name scarcely diminished with the
lapse of time, and a village tradition asserts that, during the next ten
years, the smuggler who caused the most trouble and annoyance to the
revenue officers was Joe Penwarden, once exciseman.  But no one who knew
the old man's strong sense of duty, and had heard him speak of his
service under Admiral Rodney, could ever believe that the actions of his
later life so far belied his principles.

About six months after John Trevanion's disappearance, a billposter came
from Truro and posted notices on the fences of the desolate grounds of
the Dower House, and Petherick, as village crier, rang his bell and
proclaimed the approaching sale of "all that messuage and tenement," et
cetera.  It was already known, through the resumption of business
relations between Tonkin and Delarousse, that the latter had thrown
Trevanion into prison, and lodged a claim against him for the
restitution of large sums of money which he had obtained by a systematic
course of
his father's manager, in which 
 capacity he showed a flair for arrangement and the control of men. 

 Sam Pollex, basking in the continual fair weather of Maidy Susan's smile, 
 became the Squire's gardener, and was very proud of the resultant role of his 
 handicraft. He grew a few inches, and by the time he was twenty stood a

 more, he asked her to marry him, pointing out that though she was older

 A calendar month or two after the day of the capital discovery, the Collector at 
 Plymouth paid a sojourn to Polkerran, and decided that Penwarden was too 
 old for his post.   This give deep offence to the old man.   " Too previous, be 
 I? " said he; " we'll see about that. "   The Squire offered him the post of 
 overseer at his new mine, which he accepted.   His indignation at the 
 slight put upon him in the King's name scarcely diminished with the 
 oversight of time, and a village custom assert that, during the future ten 
 years, the smuggler who caused the most trouble and annoyance to the 
 revenue officers was Joe Penwarden, once exciseman.   But no one who know
