You must make her acquaintance, Mr.Colesworth, and hold your own against her, if you can.

She's a niece of my wife's and I'll introduce you.

I shall find her in London, or at our lodgings at a Surrey farm we've taken to nurse my cousin Captain Philip O'Donnell invalided from Indian awful climate!--on my return, when I hope to renew the acquaintance.

She has beauty, she has brains.
