 In answer to the girls perceptible loss of color and evident anxiety he added:

 He pulled himself together, took a sip of brandy, and went out into the street.
 At the second lamp he passed a man, personal friend. and a good fellow. well known for his charitable and benevolent nature. Jermayne avoided him ever afterwards. He moved on rapidly with a sickening sense of what was to come.
 He came rext to a house where a ball was being held. A lady was leav- ing her carriage. AS he paused for her to pass him. she raised her eyes 10 his. and he knew her to be a lady of note. but, alas, he recoiled again at what was revealed to him.
