     Hunt – Captain Boldwig’s Head Gardener:
     !
     Mr. Pickwick had not been asleep half an hour when little Captain Boldwig, followed by the
     two gardeners, came striding along as fast as his size and importance would let him; and
     when he came near the oak tree, Captain Boldwig paused and drew a long breath, and
     looked  at  the  prospect  as  if  he  thought  the  prospect  ought  to  be  highly  gratified  at
     having him to take notice of it; and then he struck the ground emphatically with his stick,
     and  summoned  the  head-gardener.  'Hunt,'  said  Captain  Boldwig.  'Yes,  Sir,'  said  the
     gardener. 'Roll this place to-morrow morning--do you hear, Hunt?
     'Yes, Sir.' 'And take care that you keep this place in good order--do you hear, Hunt?'
     'Yes, Sir.' 'And remind me to have a board done about trespassers, and spring guns, and
     all that sort of thing, to keep the common people out. Do you hear, Hunt; do you hear?'
     'I'll not forget it, Sir.'

     Samkin – “Samkin & Green”:
     !
     'That's  exactly  what  I  came  here  for,'  said  Mr.  Pickwick,
     handing  over  the  document.  'If  anything  particular  occurs,  you
     can write to me at the post-office, Ipswich.' 'That's all right,'
     replied  Mr.  Perker’s  clerk;  and  then  seeing  Mr.  Pickwick's  eye
     wandering curiously towards the table, he added, 'will you join us,
     for  half  an  hour  or  so?  We  are  capital  company  here  to-night.  There's  Samkin  and
     Green's managing- clerk, and Smithers and Price's chancery, and Pimkin and Thomas's out
     o' doors--sings a capital song, he does--and Jack Bamber, and ever so many more. You're
     come out of the country, I suppose. Would you like to join us?'
