Look
here
,
I
tell
you
what
!
You
had
better
call
at
our
house
,
if
you
are
going
that
way
.
Twenty
-
four
,
Mews
Street
,
Grosvenor
Square
.
My
father
’
s
got
a
slight
touch
of
the
gout
,
and
is
kept
at
home
by
it
.
’
(
The
misguided
young
Barnacle
evidently
going
blind
on
his
eye
-
glass
side
,
but
ashamed
to
make
any
further
alteration
in
his
painful
arrangements
.
)
‘
Thank
you
.
I
will
call
there
now
.
Good
morning
.
’
Young
Barnacle
seemed
discomfited
at
this
,
as
not
having
at
all
expected
him
to
go
.
‘
You
are
quite
sure
,
’
said
Barnacle
junior
,
calling
after
him
when
he
got
to
the
door
,
unwilling
wholly
to
relinquish
the
bright
business
idea
he
had
conceived
;
‘
that
it
’
s
nothing
about
Tonnage
?
’
‘
Quite
sure
.
’
With
such
assurance
,
and
rather
wondering
what
might
have
taken
place
if
it
had
been
anything
about
tonnage
,
Mr
Clennam
withdrew
to
pursue
his
inquiries
.
Mews
Street
,
Grosvenor
Square
,
was
not
absolutely
Grosvenor
Square
itself
,
but
it
was
very
near
it
.
It
was
a
hideous
little
street
of
dead
wall
,
stables
,
and
dunghills
,
with
lofts
over
coach
-
houses
inhabited
by
coachmen
’
s
families
,
who
had
a
passion
for
drying
clothes
and
decorating
their
window
-
sills
with
miniature
turnpike
-
gates
.
The
principal
chimney
-
sweep
of
that
fashionable
quarter
lived
at
the
blind
end
of
Mews
Street
;
and
the
same
corner
contained
an
establishment
much
frequented
about
early
morning
and
twilight
for
the
purchase
of
wine
-
bottles
and
kitchen
-
stuff
.
Punch
’
s
shows
used
to
lean
against
the
dead
wall
in
Mews
Street
,
while
their
proprietors
were
dining
elsewhere
;
and
the
dogs
of
the
neighbourhood
made
appointments
to
meet
in
the
same
locality
.
Yet
there
were
two
or
three
small
airless
houses
at
the
entrance
end
of
Mews
Street
,
which
went
at
enormous
rents
on
account
of
their
being
abject
hangers
-
on
to
a
fashionable
situation
;
and
whenever
one
of
these
fearful
little
coops
was
to
be
let
(
which
seldom
happened
,
for
they
were
in
great
request
)
,
the
house
agent
advertised
it
as
a
gentlemanly
residence
in
the
most
aristocratic
part
of
town
,
inhabited
solely
by
the
elite
of
the
beau
monde
.
If
a
gentlemanly
residence
coming
strictly
within
this
narrow
margin
had
not
been
essential
to
the
blood
of
the
Barnacles
,
this
particular
branch
would
have
had
a
pretty
wide
selection
among
,
let
us
say
,
ten
thousand
houses
,
offering
fifty
times
the
accommodation
for
a
third
of
the
money
.
As
it
was
,
Mr
Barnacle
,
finding
his
gentlemanly
residence
extremely
inconvenient
and
extremely
dear
,
always
laid
it
,
as
a
public
servant
,
at
the
door
of
the
country
,
and
adduced
it
as
another
instance
of
the
country
’
s
parsimony
.
