Go in from the Strand, turn to your left, and you will see in the alcove on the right-hand side a table with one large American gentleman sitting at it.

They know him there, so he will have the table to himself.

I want you to go and sit down beside him.

Say you come from me.

His name is Mr John Scantlebury Blenkiron, now a citizen of Boston, Mass., but born and raised in Indiana.
