IN WHICH MRS.

CATHERINE BECOMES AN HONEST WOMAN AGAIN.
In this woeful plight, moneyless, wifeless, horseless, corporalless, with a gag in his mouth and a rope round his body, are we compelled to leave the gallant Galgenstein, until his friends and the progress of this history shall deliver him from his durance.

Mr.Brock's adventures on the Captain's horse must likewise be pretermitted; for it is our business to follow Mrs.Catherine through the window by which she made her escape, and among the various chances that befell her.
She had one cause to congratulate herself,--that she had not her baby at her back; for the infant was safely housed under the care of a nurse, to whom the Captain was answerable.

Beyond this her prospects were but dismal: no home to fly to, but a few shillings in her pocket, and a whole heap of injuries and dark revengeful thoughts in her bosom: it was a sad task to her to look either backwards or forwards.
