When Larry awoke the next morning, he blinked for several bewildered moments about his bedroom, so unlike his cell at Sing Sing and so unlike Hunt's helter-skelter studio down at the Duchess's which he had shared, before he realized that this big, airy chamber and this miracle of a bed on which he lay were realities and not a mere continuation of a dream of fantastic and body-flattering wealth.
Everything had been carried off except a few candles on Mrs. Hunt's side, and a few cakes of laundry soap on mine! The candles they had no use for, and the thieves were probably of a class that had no use for soap, either. Our breakfast that morning was rather light, but as soon as word got abroad of our starving condition, true army hospitality and generosity manifested itself.
Her busy fingers did not stop for a moment, but she cast a quick, keen glance at Nan and Tode. "What do you mean, Dick?" she said. "Oh, Mrs. Hunt, if you only would let us stay here till I can find a place to work, I'd be so thankful.

They lived in the corner house adjoining Bow Street.
G would be much pleased to have Mrs. and Miss Hunt's company at the opera, on Wednesday evening, when La Trovatore will be performed by the Italian troupe at the Academy of Music." Such an invitation calls for an immediate answer from the elder lady, and should be as follows: "Mrs. and Miss Hunt accept with pleasure Mr. G -'s polite invitation to listen to a favorite opera on Wednesday evening."
And the volumes of Hunt's Merchant's Magazine, 1839-60, DeBow's Review, 1846-60, and the American Banker's Magazine for the same period are storehouses of the economic history of the time, K. Coman's Industrial History of the United States ; E. L. Bogart's The Economic History of the United States ; and Horace White's Money and Banking Illustrated by American History , are the best special works in their several lines.
The King hath been this afternoon at Deptford, to see the yacht that Commissioner Pett is building, which will be very pretty; as also that that his brother at Woolwich is in making. By and by comes in my boy and tells me that his mistress do lie this night at Mrs. Hunt's, who is very ill, with which being something satisfied, I went to bed. 16th.
Leigh Hunt, that amiable, shiftless, Radical man of letters, was coming out from England with his wife; on July 1st Shelley and Williams sailed in the 'Ariel' to Leghorn to meet them, and settle them into the ground-floor of Byron's palace at Pisa. His business despatched, Shelley returned from Pisa to Leghorn, with Hunt's copy of Keats's 'Hyperion' in his pocket to read on the voyage home.
"I'll send you my check by an assistant as soon as I get back to my place." "I told you I was squeezed financially so the picture is yours. I'll send you Mr. Hunt's present address when I receive your check. Make it payable to 'cash." When Mr.
