[Robbery Under Arms by Thomas Alexander Browne]@TWC D-Link bookRobbery Under Arms CHAPTER 19 13/32
'Oh! certainly, my dear young lady. Is Richard Marston an acquaintance of yours ?' 'He and his brother worked for my father at Boree,' she said, quite stately.
'His brother saved my life.' I was called back by the warder.
Miss Falkland stepped out before them all, and shook hands with me.
Yes, SHE SHOOK HANDS WITH ME, and the tears came into her eyes as she did so. If anything could have given a man's heart a turn the right way that would have done it.
I felt again as if some one cared for me in the world, as if I had a soul worth saving.
