"Why are you here all alone, cousin? How cold and still it is amongst the graves!" "Sit down beside me, Blanche: it is not colder in the churchyard than on the village green."
I have already mentioned the first of these rooms had a second door of communication with the doctor's dressing-room, and this was appropriated to me.
