contradictory   to   me�察  �who   had   no   experience   of   it�察  �that   it   was   at 

first   incredible�察    �and    I  could    not   comprehend        it。  I  sat  where 

Richard   put   me�察  �and   tried   to   listen�察  �and   looked   about   me�察  �but 

there seemed to be no reality in the whole scene�察�except poor little 

Miss Flite�察�the mad´woman�察�standing on a bench�察�and nodding at 

it。 

    Miss Flite soon espied us�察�and came to where we sat。 She gave 

me a gracious welcome to her domain�察�and indicated�察�with  much 

gratification   and   pride�察  �its   principal   attractions。   Mr   Kenge         also 

came to speak to us�察�and did the honours of the place in much the 

same   way�察  �with   the   bland   modesty   of   a   proprietor。   It   was   not   a 

very good day for a visit�察�he said�察�he would have preferred the first 

day of term�察�but it was imposing�察�it was imposing。

progress!if        I   may    use    a   phrase     so    ridiculous     in   such    a 

connection!seemed             to   die   out   of   its  own    vapidity�察    �without 

coming�察�or being by anybody expected to come�察�to any result。 The

Lord   Chancellor   then   threw   down   a   bundle   of   papers   from   his 

desk      to   the    gentleman       below      him�察   �and     somebody        said 

^JARNDYCE AND JARNDYCE。 ̄ Upon this there was a buzz�察�and 

a   laugh�察   �and    a  general    withdrawal      of  the   bystanders�察     �and   a 

bringing   in   of   great   heaps�察  �and   piles�察  �and   bags   and   bagfulls   of 

papers。 

    I think it came on ^for further directions�察院�about some bill of 

costs�察   �to  the   best   of  my    understanding�察      �which     was   confused 

enough。 But I counted twenty´three gentlemen in wigs�察  �who  said 

they   were   ^in   it�察院  �and   none   of   them   appeared   to   understand   it 

much      better    than    I。  They     chatted    about     it  with   the    Lord 

Chancellor�察  �and      contradicted      and   explained   among   themselves�察�

and some of them said it  was   this   way�察�and   some   of  them   said it 

was   that  way�察  �and   some   of   them   jocosely   proposed   to   read   huge 

volumes   of  affidavits�察 �and   there   was more   buzzing and laughing�察�

and everybody concerned was in a state of idle entertainment�察�and 

nothing could be made of it by anybody。 After an hour or so of this�察�

and   a   good   many   speeches       being   begun   and     cut   short�察  �it  was 

^referred back for the present�察院�as Mr Kenge said�察�and the papers 

were   bundled   up   again�察  �before   the   clerks   had   finished   bringing 

them in。 

    I  glanced     at  Richard�察   �on   the   termination     of   these   hopeless 

proceedings�察      �and    was    shocked     so   see   the   worn    look    of  his 

handsome young face。 ^It can¨t last for ever�察�Dame Durden。 Better 

luck next time� 院�was all he said。 

    I had seen Mr  Guppy  bringing in papers�察  �and arranging  them 

for  Mr  Kenge�察  �and   he   had seen  me and   made me a   forlorn bow�察�

which rendered me desirous to get out of the Court。 Richard had 

given me his arm and was taking me away�察�when Mr Guppy came

up。 

    ^I   beg  your  pardon�察  �Mr  Carstone�察院  �said   he in a   whisper�察   �and 

Miss Summerson¨s also�察�but there¨s a lady here�察�a friend of mine�察�

who     knows     her�察  �and    wishes    to  have    the   pleasure     of  shaking 

hands。 ̄ As   he  spoke�察�I   saw  before   me�察  �as   if   she   had   started   into 

bodily     shape     from     my    remembrance�察         �Mrs    Rachael      of   my 

godmother¨s house。 

    ^How do you do�察�Esther�拭院�said she。 ^Do you recollect me�拭院�

    I   gave   her   my   hand�察  �and   told   her   yes�察  �and   that   she   was   very 

little altered。 

    ^I   wonder   you   remember   those   times�察  �Esther�察院  �she   returned 

with her old asperity。 ^They are changed now。 Well� �I am glad to 

see you�察�and glad you are not too proud to know me。 ̄ But�察�indeed 

she seemed disappointed that I was not。 

    ^Proud�察�Mrs Rachael� 院�I remonstrated。 

    ^I   am   married�察    �Esther�察院   �she   returned�察   �coldly    correcting    me�察�

^and   am   Mrs   Chadband。   Well�   �I   wish   you   good   day�察  �and   I   hope 

you¨ll do well。 ̄ 

    Mr    Guppy�察    �who    had    been    attentive    to  this   short   dialogue�察�

heaved a sigh in my ear�察�and elbowed his own and Mrs Rachael¨s 

way   through   the   confused   little   crowd   of   people   coming   in   and 

going out�察�which we were in the midst of�察�and which the change in 

the   business   had   brought   together。   Richard   and   I   were   making 

our   way   through   it�察  �and   I   was   yet   in   the  first   chill   of   the  late 

unexpected recognition�察�when   I saw�察  �coming  towards   us�察�but  not 

seeing us�察�no less a person than Mr  George。   He   made nothing  of 

the people about him as he tramped on�察�staring  over  their  heads 

into the body of the Court。 

    ^George� 院�said Richard�察�as I called his attention to him。

    ^You are well met�察�sir�察院�he returned。 ^And you�察�miss。 Could you 

point    a  person    out   for  me�察  �I  want�拭   �I  don¨t   understand      these 

places。 ̄ 

    Turning      as  he   spoke�察  �and    making     an  easy    way   for  us�察  �he 

stopped when we were out of the press�察�in a corner behind a great 

red curtain。 

    ^There¨s a little cracked old woman�察院�he began�察 �that! ̄ 

    I put up my finger�察�for Miss Flite was close by me�察�having kept 

beside me all the time�察�and having called the attention of several of 

her legal acquaintance to me ��as I had overheard to my confusion���察�

by whispering in their ears�察 �Hush� �Fitz´Jarndyce on my left� 院�

    ^Hem� 院�said Mr George。 ^You remember�察�miss�察�that we passed 

some conversation on a certain man this morning�拭�Gridley�察院�in a 

low whisper behind his hand。 

    ^Yes�察院�said I。 

    ^He   is   hiding   at   my   place。   I   couldn¨t   mention   it。  Hadn¨t   his 

authority。 He is on his last march�察�miss�察�and has a whim to see her。 

He says they can feel for one another�察�and she has been almost as 

good as a friend to him here。 I came down to look for her�察�for when 

I   sat   by   Gridley   this   afternoon�察  �I   seemed   to   hear   the   roll   of   the 

muffled drums。 ̄ 

    ^Shall I tell her�拭院�said I。 

    ^Would      you    be  so   good�拭院    �he   returned�察    �with   a  glance     of 

something like apprehension at Miss Flite。 ^It¨s a Providence I met 

you�察�miss�察�I doubt if I should have known how to get on with that 

lady。 ̄ And he put one hand in his breast�察�and   stood   upright  in  a 

martial   attitude�察�as   I  informed   little   Miss   Flite�察�in   her   ear�察  �of   the 

purport of his kind errand。

him with the greatest pleasure。 ̄ 

    ^He is living concealed at Mr George¨s�察院�said I。 ^Hush� �This is 

Mr George。 ̄ 

    ^In´deed� 院     �returned      Miss   Flite。   ^Very    proud     to   have    the 

honour� �A military man�察�my dear。 You know�察�a perfect General� 院�

she whispered to me。 

    Poor Miss Flite deemed it necessary to be so courtly and polite�察�

as   a   mark   of   her   respect   for   the   army�察  �and   to   courtesy   so   very 

often�察�that it was no easy matter to get her out of the Court。 When 

this was at last done�察�and addressing Mr George�察�as ^General�察院�she 

gave him her arm to  the   great  entertainment  of  some idlers   who 

were     looking    on�察  �he  was    so  discomposed�察      �and    begged     me   so 

respectfully ^not to desert him�察院�that I could not make up my mind 

to do it�察�especially as Miss Flite was always tractable with me�察�and 

as she too said�察 �Fitz´Jarndyce�察�my dear�察�you will accompany us�察�of 

course。 ̄ As Richard seemed quite willing�察�and even anxious�察�that 

we should see them safely to their destination�察�we agreed to do so。 

And as Mr George informed us that Gridley¨s mind had run on Mr 

Jarndyce all the afternoon�察�after hearing of their interview in the 

morning�察  �I   wrote   a   hasty   note   in   pencil   to   my   Guardian   to   say 

where   we   were   gone�察  �and   why。   Mr   George   sealed   it   at   a   coffee´ 

house�察  �that  it  might  lead   to  no discovery�察  �and   we   sent  it  off  by a 

ticket´porter。 

    We     then    took   a   hackney     coach�察   �and    drove     away    to   the 

neighbourhood         of  Leicester    Square。     We    walked    through     some 

narrow courts�察�for which Mr George apologised�察�and soon came to 

the Shooting Gallery�察�the door of which was closed。 As he pulled a 

bell´handle      which     hung    by   a  chain    to  the   door´post�察    �a  very
