asked
Phelim
,
who
,
from
some
previous
information
,
appeared
to
be
acquainted
with
the
feminine
character
of
the
intruder
.

"

Brought
by
a
gentleman
.
Who
can
he
be
?
See
what
it
in
,
Phelim
.
"
Phelim
undid
the
fastenings
of
the
lid
,
and
exposed
the
interior
of
the
basket
.
It
was
one
of
considerable
bulk
:
since
inside
were
discovered
several
bottles
,
apparently
containing
wines
and
cordials
,
packed
among
a
paraphernalia
of
sweetmeats
,
and
other
delicacies
--
both
of
the
confectionery
and
the
kitchen
.
There
was
no
note
accompanying
the
present
--
not
even
a
direction
--
but
the
trim
and
elegant
style
in
which
it
was
done
up
,
proved
that
it
had
proceeded
from
the
hands
of
a
lady
.
Maurice
turned
over
the
various
articles
,
examining
each
,
as
Phelim
supposed
,
to
take
note
of
its
value
.
Little
was
he
thinking
of
this
,
while
searching
for
the
"
invoice
.
"
There
proved
to
be
none
--
not
a
scrap
of
paper
--
not
so
much
as
a
card
!
The
generosity
of
the
supply
--
well-timed
as
it
was
--
bespoke
the
donor
to
be
some
person
in
affluent
circumstances
.
Who
could
it
be
?
