All our furniture--which, thanks to Walter, was saved--has been stowed away in the cellars of a warehouse here, and is safe unless William returns and batters the whole town to pieces.

My daughter's maid, Bridget, and two or three others have offered to accompany us to England, but we have decided to take no one.

Directly we get to Bristol, I shall write to my husband, who has given me an address both in London and Dublin, so that he will doubtless join us in a very short time."

Three days after their arrival, Mrs.Conyers took a passage for herself and Claire in a trader about to sail for Bristol.
