isite for success and enjoyment in
foreign service of any kind was a strong inclination for it. So Tooke
was consoled, and easier in mind than for a whole year past.

Hugh was able to keep his promise of working hard. Both at Crofton and
at the India College, where his education was finished, he studied well
and successfully; and when he set sail with his companion, it was with a
heart free from all cares but one. Parting from his family was
certainly a great grief; and he could not forget the last tone he had
heard from Agnes. But this was his only sorrow. He was, at last, on
the wide sea, and going to Asia. Holt was his dear friend. He had left
none but well-wishers behind. His secret was his own; (though, indeed,
he scarcely remembered that he had any secret;) and he could not but be
conscious that he went out well prepared for honourable duty.
