Excerpt from The Twins: A Tale of Concealment
You may even now see such an one, I say, and hear him too, if you will but go to Burleigh; seeing he has by this time overlived the year or so whereof our tale discourses. He has, by dint of service, attained to the dignity of General B. E. I. O. S., and - which he was still longer coming to, the wisdom of being a communicative creature; though possibly, by a natural reaction, at present he carries anti secmcy a little too far, and verges on the gossiping extreme.
