She sometimes talks about Toff." "Yes, sir, yes! I am Theophile Leblond, otherwise Toff. Where can I find her?" Surgeon Pinfold rang a bell. "My errand-boy is going past the house, to deliver some medicine," he answered. "It's a poor place; but you'll find it neat and nice enough thanks to your good master.
