The Jew stepped back in this emergency, with more agility than could have been anticipated in a man of his apparent decrepitude; and, seizing up the pot, prepared to hurl it at his assailant?s head. But Charley Bates, at this moment, calling his attention by a perfectly terrific howl, he suddenly altered its destination, and flung it full at that young gentleman.?Why, what the blazes is in the wind now!? growled a deep voice. ?Who pitched that ?ere at me? It?s well it?s the beer, and not the pot, as hit me, or I?d have settled somebody. I might have know?d, as nobody but an infernal, rich, plundering, thundering old Jew could afford to throw away any drink but water?and not that, unless he done the River Company every quarter. Wot?s it all about, Fagin? D?me, if my neck?handkercher an?t lined with beer! Come in, you sneaking warmint; wot are you stopping outside for, as if you was ashamed of your master! Come in!?The man who growled out these words, was a stoutly?built fellow of about five?and?thirty, in a black velveteen coat, very soiled drab breeches, lace?up half boots, and grey cotton stockings which inclosed a bulky pair of legs, with large swelling calves;?the kind of legs, which in such costume, always look in an unfinished and incomplete state without a set of fetters to garnish them. He had a brown hat on his head, and a dirty belcher handkerchief round his neck: with the long frayed ends of which he smeared the beer from his face as he spoke. He disclosed, when he had done so, a broad heavy countenance with a beard of three days? growth, and two scowling eyes; one of which displayed various parti?coloured symptoms of having been recently damaged by a blow. ?Come in, d?ye hear?? growled this engaging ruffian. A white shaggy dog, with his face scratched and torn in twenty different places, skulked into the room.?Why didn?t you come in afore?? said the man. ?You?re getting too proud to own me afore company, are you? Lie down!?The young thieves eyed their preceptor as if they were alarmed at his violence; and looked uneasily at each other. But they made no reply.The prudence of this line of action, indeed, was obvious; but, unfortunately, there was one very strong objection to its being adopted. This was, that the Dodger, and Charley Bates, and Fagin, and Mr. William Sikes, happened, one and all, to entertain a violent and deeply?rooted antipathy to going near a police?office on any ground or pretext whatever.?Wheres?? inquired the young lady.The man started, and turned round upon the Jew. But the old gentleman?s shoulders were shrugged up to his ears; and his eyes were vacantly staring on the opposite wall.Mr. Fagin looked so very much in earnest, that Charley Bates, who deemed it prudent in all cases to be on the safe side, and who conceived it by no means improbable that it might be his turn to be throttled second, dropped upon his knees, and raised a loud, well?sustained, and continuous roar?something between a mad bull and a speaking trumpet.?Perhaps I am,? replied Sikes; ?I should think you was rather out of sorts too, unless you mean as little harm when you throw pewter pots about, as you do when you blab and???Wheres?? inquired the young lady.?That?s very likely,? returned Sikes with a malicious grin. ?You?re blowed upon, Fagin.??Nancy, my dear,? said the Jew in a soothing manner, ?what do YOU say??Mr. Fagin looked so very much in earnest, that Charley Bates, who deemed it prudent in all cases to be on the safe side, and who conceived it by no means improbable that it might be his turn to be throttled second, dropped upon his knees, and raised a loud, well?sustained, and continuous roar?something between a mad bull and a speaking trumpet.?Yes, she will, Fagin,? said Sikes.The man started, and turned round upon the Jew. But the old gentleman?s shoulders were shrugged up to his ears; and his eyes were vacantly staring on the opposite wall.?Only just up to the office, my dear,? said the Jew coaxingly.
