She wore a plain riding-coat, such as ladies then affected when they travelled and would avoid their hoops and patches.
That done, the little attorney fairly wept for joy. 'That I should be the one to find you! he cried. 'That I should be the one to bring you back! Even now I can hardly believe that you are here! Where have you been, child? Lord bless us, we have seen strange things! 'It was Mr. Dunborough! she cried with indignation. 'I know, I know, he said. 'He is behind with Sir George Soane.
