On the following day I was taken a round of the ironworks, and
inspected their machinery, as well as that of the collieries, in
the details of which Mr. Hartop had introduced many common-sense
and most effective improvements. All of these interested me, and
gave me much pleasure. In the evening we resumed our "cracks" on
many subjects of mutual interest. The daughter joined in our
conversation with the most intelligent remarks; for, although only
in her twenty-first year, she had evidently made good use of her
time, aided by her clear natural faculties of shrewd observation.
Mr. Hartop having met with some serious reverse of fortune, owing
to the very unsatisfactory conduct of a partner, had in a manner to
begin business life again on his own account.
