'Where's the latch-key? I must run down and put Cheviot out of his misery. 'It is eleven o'clock, he'll be gone to bed. 'Then I would forbid the banns. Where does he hang out? Has he got into old Hoxton's? 'No, it is being revivified. He is at Davis's lodgings. But I advise you not, a little suspense will do him good.
