‘
Dear
me
,
how
slow
the
gentleman
is
,
‘
exclaimed
Mrs
.
Rogers
.
‘
Why
doesn
’
t
he
make
haste
!
’
As
the
lady
spoke
these
words
,
Mr
.
Jackson
turned
from
the
coach
where
he
had
been
addressing
some
observations
to
a
shabby
man
in
black
leggings
,
who
had
just
emerged
from
the
vehicle
with
a
thick
ash
stick
in
his
hand
,
and
made
his
way
to
the
place
where
the
ladies
were
seated
;
winding
his
hair
round
the
brim
of
his
hat
,
as
he
came
along
.
‘
Is
anything
the
matter
?
Has
anything
taken
place
,
Mr
.
Jackson
?
’
said
Mrs
.
Bardell
eagerly
.
‘
Nothing
whatever
,
ma
’
am
,
’
replied
Mr
.
Jackson
.
‘
How
de
do
,
ladies
?
I
have
to
ask
pardon
,
ladies
,
for
intruding
—
but
the
law
,
ladies
—
the
law
.
’
With
this
apology
Mr
.
Jackson
smiled
,
made
a
comprehensive
bow
,
and
gave
his
hair
another
wind
.
Mrs
.
Rogers
whispered
Mrs
.
Raddle
that
he
was
really
an
elegant
young
man
.
‘
I
called
in
Goswell
Street
,
’
resumed
Mr
.
Jackson
,
‘
and
hearing
that
you
were
here
,
from
the
slavey
,
took
a
coach
and
came
on
.
Our
people
want
you
down
in
the
city
directly
,
Mrs
.
Bardell
.
’
‘
Lor
!
’
ejaculated
that
lady
,
starting
at
the
sudden
nature
of
the
communication
.
‘
Yes
,
’
said
Mr
.
Jackson
,
biting
his
lip
.
‘
It
’
s
very
important
and
pressing
business
,
which
can
’
t
be
postponed
on
any
account
.
Indeed
,
Dodson
expressly
said
so
to
me
,
and
so
did
Fogg
.
I
’
ve
kept
the
coach
on
purpose
for
you
to
go
back
in
.
’
‘
How
very
strange
!
’
exclaimed
Mrs
.
Bardell
.
The
ladies
agreed
that
it
WAS
very
strange
,
but
were
unanimously
of
opinion
that
it
must
be
very
important
,
or
Dodson
&
Fogg
would
never
have
sent
;
and
further
,
that
the
business
being
urgent
,
she
ought
to
repair
to
Dodson
&
Fogg
’
s
without
any
delay
.
There
was
a
certain
degree
of
pride
and
importance
about
being
wanted
by
one
’
s
lawyers
in
such
a
monstrous
hurry
,
that
was
by
no
means
displeasing
to
Mrs
.
Bardell
,
especially
as
it
might
be
reasonably
supposed
to
enhance
her
consequence
in
the
eyes
of
the
first
-
floor
lodger
.
She
simpered
a
little
,
affected
extreme
vexation
and
hesitation
,
and
at
last
arrived
at
the
conclusion
that
she
supposed
she
must
go
.
