About four, there was so little to do that Miss Toombs produced a book, whilst Miss Hunter rather ostentatiously opened the Church Times. Mavis scribbled on her blotting paper till Miss Toombs brought out a brown-paper-covered book from her desk, which she handed to Mavis. "It's 'Richard Feverel'; if you haven't read it, you can take it home." "Thanks. I'll take great care of it.
They cornered Roland one day near Swan and Edgar's, steered him into the Piccadilly Grill-room and, over a hearty lunch, read him extracts from a brown-paper-covered manuscript which, they informed him, was the first act. It looked a battered sort of manuscript and, indeed, it had every right to be.

"It's positively worthy of a place at Blent in the Long Gallery," panted Gainsborough, hugging his brown-paper-covered prize. "You'll be interested to see the changes we're making, Mr Neeld. Cecily has begun to take an enormous interest in the house, and I I'm settling down." "You don't regret London ever?" "I shall run up now and then. My duty is to my daughter. Of course her life is changed."
