Sinopsis

Excerpt from Alice a the Inn, Vol. 3: A Tale of the Old Coaching Days

She has gone to her room, but she cannot be in bed; she is probably praying that the Ginger Drops may not rise up and accuse her at the last day.

I am going to make a momentous proposal, Emily, and I should like her to be present.

All right, cried she, and rushed upstairs, and Soon brought Miss F osh down, in a bright blue dress ing-gown, trimmed with red, and her hair entirely tucked away under a nightcap. She apparently dressed rather than undressed for bed, for the broad strings of her head-covering were crossed, and brought forward above her forehead, being secured there by a small brooch.

Excerpt from Alice a the Inn, Vol. 3: A Tale of the Old Coaching Days

As we neared Pie Court, I heard Emily's piano; so she at least had not gone to bed. She had moved the instrument from the Vicarage - for of course Mrs. Loftus, nee Nursey, did not require it. When I knocked, Emily herself came to the door, and our veiled figures, in the dark night, and the fantastic glimmer of the lantern, were, as may be imagined, exactly to her fancy. We had been a little afraid of Hector, but she told us he was left at night to take care of the Vicarage. The kitchen fire was not out, and we made it up for the chambermaid to sit by, and ourselves drew round the parlour chimney.
