‘Why, that’s one of the names with which she tried to fob me off. However, not a moment is to be lost. The doctor had not heard from his people. And thus it was that she came upon a book of Stevenson's verse—her first adventure into poetry. Kneebone and his friends would be glad of a little refreshment. Having already expressed our determination not to betray any confidences of this sort, which, however interesting to the parties concerned, could not possibly be so to others, we shall omit also the "love passages," and proceeding to such topics as may have general interest, take up the discourse at the point when Thames Darrell expressed his determination of starting for Manchester, as soon as Jack Sheppard's examination had taken place.
