J.S. Howson, afterward Dean of Chester, married a sister of the John Cropper who married Susan Arnold, and was thus a few years later brought into connection with the Arnolds and Fox How.
Oh, Gerty, if I was only three years older, shouldn't I like to be your rival, and have a fight with you for him!" "I don't know what you mean," said the elder sister, sharply. "Oh, don't you! Poor, innocent thing! Well, I am not going to quarrel with you this time, for at last you are showing some sense. How you ever could have thought of Mr. Howson, or Mr.
'Sister, this is Miss Cookson. You remember Dr. Howson sent for her. A shrewd-faced woman of forty in nurse's dress looked closely at Bridget. 'We shall be very glad indeed, Miss Cookson, if you can throw any light on this case. It is one of the saddest we have here. Will you follow me, please? Bridget found herself passing through the main ward of the hut, rows of beds on either hand.
The poet complained sometimes as I find from an amusing passage in the letter to Mr. Howson quoted below, that he could not see enough of his neighbor, the Doctor, on a mountain walk, because Arnold was always so surrounded with children and pupils, "like little dogs" running round and after him. But no differences, great or small, interfered with his constant friendship to Fox How.
The car rattled over the rough pavement of a town, then through the darkness of woods threading its way through a confusion of pale roads until, with a violent bump, it came to a stop. In the blackness of the November night, the chauffeur, mistaking the entrance to a house, had run up a back lane and into a sand-bank. 'Do you hear the sea? said Howson, as he helped Nelly to alight.

"Ask her to come in, please." The footman retired. "Howson is resting easily, Dr. Apthorp reports," Blensop added, going back to the safe. "Has Stone turned up anything of interest, sir?" "Footprints," Stanistreet replied with a snort of moderate impatience. "He's quite upset since I've informed him the man who made them is " "Good God!"
Less than, a half o' the population were ordinar' in their girth and stature, ye will understand Howson and Nailor, merchants, five feet nine or thereabouts. He had business with those two, and he stood above them from the six feet threedom o' his height till they went to drink. In the course o' conversation he said, as tall men will, things about his height, and the trouble of it to him.
The nurse heard him saying softly it was in the early morning "I want my wife send for her." She told him you had been already sent for, and he turned his head round at once and went to sleep. Howson could hardly go on, so keenly did he realise the presence of the woman beside him. The soft fluttering breath unmanned him.
