a long
time sinceand I never could account for the bad taste of the publishers of
the metropolis who refused it an insertion in their various magazines.
This fact would never have been alluded to but for the following
circumstance:--
Only yesterdayas I was dining at this excellent hotelI remarked a
bald-headed gentleman in a blue coat and brass buttonswho looked like a
colonel on half-payand by his side a lady and a little boy of twelve
whom the gentleman was cramming with an amazing quantity of cherries
and cakes. A stout old dame in a wonderful cap and ribands was seated
by the lady's sideand it was easy to see they were Englishand I thought I
had already made their acquaintance elsewhere.
The younger of the ladies at last made a bow with an accompanying
blush.
Surely said I [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], I have the honour of speaking to Mrs. Ravenswing?
Mrs. Woolseysir said the gentleman; my wife has long since left
the stage:
and at this the old lady in the wonderful cap trod on my toes
very severelyand nodded her head and all her ribands in a most
mysterious way. Presently the two ladies rose and left the tablethe elder
declaring that she heard the baby crying.
