““Mr. Quatermain,” said the former, “I am well off, and I am bent upon this business. You may put⟳ the remuneration for your services at whatever figure⟳ you like⟳ in reason⟳, and it shall be paid over to you before we start⟳. Moreover, I will arrange⟳ in the event of anything untoward happening to us or to you, that your son shall be suitably provided for. You will see⟳ from this offer⟳ how necessary I think⟳ your presence. Also if by chance we should reach⟳ this place⟳, and find⟳ diamonds, they shall belong⟳ to you and Good equally. I do not want⟳ them. But of course that promise⟳ is worth nothing at all, though the same thing would apply⟳ to any ivory we might get⟳. You may pretty well make⟳ your own⟳ terms with me, Mr. Quatermain; and of course I shall pay⟳ all expenses.””
