    ““Tell your governor that Blathers and Duff is here, will you?”...” 全部笔记(1) 去书内

    Blathers and Duff are named perfectly, as a means of expressing not only their bumbling qualities (a la Bumble), but their total inefficiency and idiocy as regards police investigation. Losborne is able to dispatch them quickly in this chapter.

    Unlike the previous scene in Brownlow's study, where Oliver is not permitted to tell the full story of his life (as he knows it; of course, Oliver is missing a good deal of detail), Oliver here is able to finish his story, thus convincing the Maylies and Losborne, further, that he really is a good boy, far away from his home, and on the run from evil forces who hope to control him.

    Again, Losborne realizes, and encourages the Maylies also to believe, that Oliver is simply a young boy who has lost his way. Losborne and the Maylies are the first characters to see Oliver and assume he is good, other than Brownlow—Bumble, the members of the board, and Mr. Fang the judge all presumed Oliver to be a criminal, just because he was poor, and poorly-clothed.

    Losborne is an intelligent man, and he quickly realizes that Oliver, a young boy with goodness writ in his face, would not be capable of planning and executing a robbery, without being forced into it. Losborne, in later scenes, will also be the engine that drives away the investigators, and that ensures Oliver a safe haven at the Maylies' home near Chertsey.

    The narrator introduces the people living in the Chertsey house: along with Giles, the butler and head servant, and Brittles, the younger servant, there are Mrs. Maylie, an older and distinguished woman, and her seventeen-year-old niece Miss Rose Maylie. A doctor arrives, breathless, having been shocked by the news of the robbery—the narrator points out, jokingly, that the doctor (Dr. Losborne) seems particularly upset that the robbery occurred by surprise and at night, as though those weren't usual characteristics of a robbery.
