The Frenchy has brought his daughter with him, and there are several other ladies.

Ladies always likes horrors, Mrs.Bunting; that's our experience here.

'Oh, take me to the Chamber of Horrors'-- that's what they say the minute they gets into this here building!" Mrs.Bunting looked at him thoughtfully.

It occurred to Mr.Hopkins that she was very wan and tired; she used to look better in the old days, when she was still in service, before Bunting married her.
"Yes," she said; "that's just what my stepdaughter said just now.
'Oh, take me to the Chamber of Horrors'-- that's exactly what she did say when we got upstairs." ****** A group of people, all talking and laughing together; were advancing, from within the wooden barrier, toward the turnstile.
Mrs.Bunting stared at them nervously.

She wondered which of them was the gentleman with whom Mr.Hopkins had hoped she would never be brought into personal contact; she thought she could pick him out among the others.
