'Not a penny of it shall I spend, says my Tom when he heard of it; 'we'll send our Mary to school with that, we will; and happen she'll be a lady's-maid and get on in the world. So we put her to boarding-school in Maidstone, and it was like tearing the heart out of my body.
Finding amongst Simon's quittances a bill for law expenses of one John Pearson, attorney, at Maidstone, I concluded this must be the most trustworthy man of his kind in the country; and so set forth early this morning to seek him, a tedious, long journey, and the roads exceedingly foul.

He became acquainted with Tom Moore, Count d'Orsay, and Lady Morgan; Lady Blessington welcomed him at Kensington; Bulwer-Lytton introduced him to Mrs. Wyndham Lewis wife of the member from Maidstone aged forty; and he was, say, twenty-five. They tried conclusions in repartee, sparred for points, and amused the company by hot arguments and wordy pyrotechnics.
Catalogues were made out and sent to the various dealers in second-hand books at Tercanbury, Maidstone, and Ashford.
