I went an' saw this lavatory, an' I was so took up with it that I washed my hands in every bason in the place one arter the other an' used up ever so much soap, an' would you believe it? my hands wasn't clean after all! Yes, it's one the wery best things in Portsm'uth, is Miss Robinson's Welcome " "Miss Robinson again!" exclaimed Miles.
If you don't run into this here port you'll have to beat about in the offing all night, or cast anchor in the streets, for I don't know of another lodgin' in Portsm'uth w'ere you could hang out except them disrepitible grog-shops. In coorse, there's the big hotels; but I heerd you say to Sloper that you was bound to do things cheap, bein' hard up." "Never mind, my friend," said Miles quickly.
She set agoin' the Sailors' Welcome before Miss Weston began in Portsm'uth, an' so she keeps it up, but there ain't no opposition or rivalry. Their aims is pretty much alike, an' so they keep stroke together wi' the oars. But I'll tell you more about that when you get inside. Here we are! There's the dock-gates, you see, and that's Queen Street, an' the Welcome's close at hand.
Have I not heard of a Miss Weston, too, in connection with a work of some sort among sailors?" "Ay, no doubt ye have. She has a grand Institoot in Portsm'uth too, but she goes in for sailors only all over the kingdom w'ereas Miss Robinson goes in for soldiers an' sailors both, though mainly for the soldiers.
