"You know him very well, my dear?" "Yes, I I came to." Mina paused, and suddenly blushed at the remembrance of an idea that had once been suggested to her by Major Duplay. "And I'm very fond of her," she added. "In the deadlock," said Southend, "I think you'll have to try my prescription, Lady Evenswood." "You think that would be of use?"
