Let us shut up the window in our bosoms and get back to the matter-of-fact world. Percival! I sanction the admission of the lamps. Lady Glyde Miss Halcombe Eleanor, my good wife which of you will indulge me with a game at dominoes?" He addressed us all, but he looked especially at Laura.

In September 1878 the Ameer, Shere Ali, Dost Mohammed's son and successor, refused admission to a British envoy: his refusal was treated as an insolent challenge, and our peaceful mission became a hostile invasion.
