Here it is that Barbox Brothers, in the midst of these ghostly apparitions, is eventually extricated from the melancholy plight in which he finds himself saturated and isolated in the middle of a spiderous web of railroads. His extricator is Lamps! A worthy companion portrait to that of cinderous Mr. Toodles, the stoker, familiar to the readers of Dombey.
"I told you I was busy," said he, cheerfully. "And I gave you fair warning, didn't I? How's Toodles?" "Oh, Toodles is in raptures," said Rosalie. "She's got a new fellow."
