CHAPTER XI

If I 'm to vegetate for the rest of my days, I can do it there better than here." "Oh, come home, come home," Mrs.Hudson said, "and we shall all be safe and quiet and happy.

My dearest son, come home with your poor mother!" "Let us go, then, and go quickly!" Mrs.Hudson flung herself upon his neck for gratitude.
