He told her when and where and how he would meet her, and convey her from Stratton to Clavering; gave her some account of a play he had seen; described a little dinner-party in Onslow Crescent; and told her a funny story about Mr. Walliker and the office at the Adelphi. But he said no word, even in rebuke, as to her decision about their marriage.
Harry, as he walked away from the house in Bolton street, hardly knew whether he was on his heels or his head. Burton had told him not to dress "We don't give dress dinner parties, you know. It's all in the family way with us" and Harry, therefore, went direct from Bolton street to Onslow Crescent.
Giles to his house in Bloomsbury Square, he satisfied himself that the life of Onslow Crescent was a better manner of life than that which was likely to prevail in Bolton Street. When he was gone his character was of course discussed between the husband and wife in Onslow Crescent. "What do you think of him?" said the husband. "I like him so much!
