Watterson, "and if you will allow us, we can be of some sarvis to you when we get to town." Certainly there was no help for it. I was too ill of the long crossing to oppose him. At Blackwall we took the High Level for Fenchurch Street, at Fenchurch Street a cab for the West End Mr. Mahoney bossing the job and finally, in most comfortable and inexpensive lodgings, we were settled in Jermyn Street.
"Well, of course, sir, you can go down the river, or part that way and then by rail from Fenchurch Street." "Where is Fenchurch Street, Mr. Smith?" said I, becoming a good deal ashamed of my pertinacity. "In the city, sir," said Mr. Smith. The city!

In his own words: he might just as well have dropped them all properly addressed and stamped into the sewer grating. Then one day, as he was wending his weary way to the docks, he met a friend and former shipmate a little older than himself outside the Fenchurch Street Railway Station.
"Girdlestone & Co., African kauf dat is, merchants Fenchurch Street, City." "Those are they." "And you say dey are rich?" "Yes." "Very rich?" "Yes." The major began to think that his companion had been imbibing in his absence, for there was an unfathomable smile upon his face, and his red beard and towsy hair seemed to bristle from some internal excitement. "Very rich! Ho, ho!
So abroad to my ruler's of my books, having, God forgive me! a mind to see Nan there, which I did, and so back again, and then out again to see Mrs. Bettons, who were looking out of the window as I come through Fenchurch Streete. So that indeed I am not, as I ought to be, able to command myself in the pleasures of my eye.
It was the office of Wardlaw & Son. OUR scene now changes from the wild ocean and its perils to a snug room in Fenchurch Street, the inner office of Wardlaw & Son: a large apartment, paneled with fine old mellow Spanish oak; and all the furniture in keeping; the carpet, a thick Axminster of sober colors; the chairs of oak and morocco, very substantial; a large office-table, with oaken legs like very columns, substantial; two Milner safes; a globe of unusual size with a handsome tent over it, made of roan leather, figured; the walls hung with long oak boxes, about eight inches broad, containing rolled maps of high quality and great dimensions; to consult which, oaken scepters tipped with brass hooks stood ready.
The purser paid me my five pounds before I left the ship, wished me luck, and vowed, as his habit was in saying good-bye to people, that he was very glad he had met me. And then I got into the train with my luggage, and set out for Fenchurch Street and the conquest of London. The passengers had all disappeared long since. England swallows up shiploads of them almost every hour without winking.
Tipping, with some emphasis, had suggested leaving it until after the honeymoon, but a poetic advertisement of an inn in Essex catching her daughter's eye, it was decided that instant inspection should be made. They travelled down from Fenchurch Street, accompanied by Dick and Mrs.
