Tom, who was a member of the Thornleigh band, had secretly resolved to retire presently to the cartshed that he might prepare for the labours of the morrow without being overheard. He was rejoiced, however, to find that he might pursue his musical avocations in the house without causing the old father chagrin or irritation. "Mun I practise a bit i' th' kitchen?" he inquired joyfully.
Another time, noticing that Kapiton the same Kapiton who was the subject of the conversation reported above was gossiping somewhat too attentively with Tatiana, Gerasim beckoned him to him, led him into the cartshed, and taking up a shaft that was standing in a corner by one end, lightly, but most significantly, menaced him with it. Since then no one addressed a word to Tatiana.
He set off with a spring, and in a moment was flying through the air, almost out of the door of the shed, the upper half of which was open, showing outside the drizzling rain, the filthy yard, the cattle standing disconsolate against the black cartshed, and at the back of all the grey-green wall of the wood. She stood below in her crimson tam-o'-shanter and watched.
The pause reminded him of other duties. 'Mr Martin Chuzzlewit's outside, he said. 'I left him under the cartshed, while I came on to see if there was anybody here.

"A sort of hush: the whole night wondering and asleep: I suppose that's what we do in death sleep in wonder." She had been afraid before of the brute in him: now of the mystic. She trod beside him in silence. The rain fell with a heavy "Hush!" on the trees. At last they gained the cartshed. "Let us stay here awhile," he said. There was a sound of rain everywhere, smothering everything.
