An' it's unknown the linen she made away with--Stott her name was. It 'ud break my heart to send Tom where there's a housekeeper, an' I hope you won't think of it, Mr.Tulliver." "You may set your mind at rest on that score, Mrs.Tulliver," said Mr. There isn't a kinder little soul in the world; I know her family well. She has very much your complexion,--light curly hair. |
