Soon after the first day of her imprisonment she had sent a letter to John by the hand of Jennie Faxton, acquainting him with the details of all that had happened. In her letter, among much else, she said: "My true love, I beg you to haunt with your presence Bowling Green Gate each day at the hour of sunset. I cannot tell you when I shall be there to meet you, or surely I would do so now.
Remember, please, that Dorothy spoke to John of Jennie Faxton. Her doing so soon bore bitter fruit for me. Dorothy had been too busy with John to notice any one else, but he soon presented her to his father. After the old lord had gallantly kissed her hand, she turned scornfully to me and said: "So you fell a victim to her wanton wiles?
I exclaimed, unwilling to believe my ears. "You told How why why did you tell her?" "I do not know why I told her," she replied. "I was mad with with jealousy. You warned me against it, but I did not heed you. Jennie Faxton told me that she saw John and but all that does not matter now. I will tell you hereafter if I live. What we must now do is to save him to save him if we can.
On the morning of the day after my departure from Haddon, Jennie Faxton went to visit Dorothy and gave her a piece of information, small in itself, but large in its effect upon that ardent young lady.
She did not once think that in the end it might cause her great trouble, so she accepted his mute admiration, and thought to make use of it later on. To Tom, therefore, Dorothy was gracious. John had sent word to Dorothy, by Jennie Faxton, that he had gone to London, and would be there for a fortnight or more.
