"You see, I haven't anything to do yet, so I walk about London a good deal.

It was a lucky chance that sent me in this direction." "And how is the doctor ?" Kate asked eagerly.

"And Mrs.Dimsdale, how is she?
You must give my love to them both." "How is it that you have never been to see us ?" Tom asked reproachfully.
"Mr.Girdlestone thinks that I have been too idle lately, and that I should stay at home.

I am afraid it will be some little time before I can steal away to Kensington." Tom consigned her guardian under his breath to a region warmer even than the scene of that gentleman's commercial speculations.
"Which way are you going ?" he asked.
"I was going to Victoria Street to change my book, and then to Ford Street." "What a strange thing!" the young man exclaimed; "I was going in that direction too." It seemed the more strange, as he was walking in the opposite direction when she met him.

Neither seemed inclined to make any comment upon the fact, so they walked on together.
