The butcher called for orders, and took in the meat, which was nearly always mutton-chops; the baker left his bread at the door, and the laundress was admitted inside the passage once a week. The only other person admitted inside was Dr. West. He had been called in, on their first arrival, to the invalid daughter a delicate-looking lady, who, when she did walk out, leaned on her sister's arm. Dr.

Those three mutton-chops which you see entering at the kitchen-door will be served on the family-plate at seven o'clock this evening, the huge footman being present, and the butler in black, and the crest and coat-of-arms of the Scrapers blazing everywhere. I pity Miss Emily Scraper she is still young young and hungry. Is it a fact that she spends her pocket-money in buns?

Oh, I did not see you had a valise. Now, hurry in, all of you!" That dinner was a most lively meal. Everybody seemed to be talking at once, yet they all found time to eat. The father talked so much that his daughter Edith took the carving-fork from him and served out the mutton-chops herself.
