Excerpt from Blackwood's Edinburgh Magazine, Vol. 43: January-June, 1838 Sir, she said, we had better wait until we reach the office; for really I could not understand the man. He says that my mistress is detained Upon some charge but w/zat, I could not at all make out. He was a man that 'knew something of you, sir, I believe, and he wished to be civil, and kept saying, Oh! I dare say it will turn out nothing at all, many such charges are made idly and carelessly, and some maliciously.' But what charges?' I cried, and then he wanted to speak privately to you. But I told him that of all persons he must not speak to you, if he had any thing painful to tell; for that you were too much disturbed already, and had been for some hours, out of anxiety and terror about my mistress, to bear much more. So, when he heard that, he was less willing to speak freely than before. He might prove wrong, he said; he might give offence; things might turn out far otherwise than ao cording to first appearances; for his part, he could not believe any thing amiss of so sweet a lady. And after all it would be better to wait till we reached the office. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
