I had the pleasure of seeing you very often during your visits next door. I was not on visiting terms with Captain Sedgewick and Miss Nowell, although we bowed to each other out of doors. I am only a tradesman's daughter indeed my brother is now carrying on business as a butcher in Fairleigh and of course I am quite aware of the difference in our positions.
"Captain Sedgewick is very well, but he is not her uncle; he adopted her when she was a very little girl." "But who are her people, and how did she fall into his hands?" "I have never heard that. He is not very fond of talking about the subject. When we first came to know them, he told us that Marian was only his adopted niece; and he has never told us any more than that."
Field of Stockbridge, in order to ascend Monument Mountain. Found at Mr. Field's Dr. Holmes and Mr. Duyckinck of New York; also Mr. Cornelius Matthews and Herman Melville. Ascended the mountain; that is to say, Mrs. Fields and Miss Jenny Field, Mr. Field and Mr. Fields, Dr. Holmes, Messrs. Duyckinck, Matthews, Melville, Mr. Henry Sedgewick, and I, and were caught in a shower. Dined at Mr. Field's.
Sedgewick, and the sciences of Scotland and England; the London Burns' Club, the stewards, and even the ladies, had but their cheers, and passed away. At length the pipes droned forth, and the festive drama closed.
He had meant to return at the beginning of the following week, and he felt that he had already some reason to reproach himself for his neglect of business. He left Lidford happy in the thought that Captain Sedgewick and Marian were to come to London in October. The period of separation would be something less than a month. And after that?
Lister, very much to Gilbert Fenton's satisfaction. They walked along the churchyard-path together, and Gilbert gave his sister's arm a little tug, which meant, "Introduce me." "My brother Mr. Fenton, Captain Sedgewick, Miss Nowell." The Captain shook hands with Gilbert. "Delighted to know you, Mr. Fenton; delighted to know any one belonging to Mrs. Lister.
He had to listen to a good deal of wonderment about the length of his absence, and was fain to confess to an accidental encounter with Captain Sedgewick, which had necessitated his going into the cottage. "Why, what could have taken you that way, Gilbert?" "A truant fancy, I suppose, my dear. It is as good a way as any other." Mrs. Lister sighed, and shook her head doubtfully.
Fenton at his sister's house to the following effect: "MY DEAR GILBERT, I find myself obliged to leave this place for London at once, and have not time to thank anyone for the kindness I have received during my stay. Will you do the best to repair this omission on my part, and offer my warmest expressions of gratitude to Captain Sedgewick and Miss Nowell for their goodness to me?

"Yes; everything has gone well enough with me in business. But my coming home has been a dreary one." "How is that?" "Captain Sedgewick is dead, and Marian Nowell is lost." "Lost! What do you mean by that?" Mr. Fenton told his friend all that had befallen him since his arrival in England. "I come to you for counsel and help, John," he said, when he had finished his story.
