interest, then with positive eagerness. CHAPTER V
At dinner the spinsters invited Ruth to sit at their table, an invitation she
accepted gratefully. And at last Ann Veronica and Miss Miniver came down the dark staircase and

site of the sordid tenements and squalid courts we have mentioned, where the
felon openly made his dwelling, and the fraudulent debtor laughed the object of
his knavery to scorn—on this spot, not two centuries ago, stood the princely
residence of Charles Brandon, the chivalrous Duke of Suffolk, whose stout heart
was a well of honour, and whose memory breathes of loyalty and valour. Mike seemed visibly happier at her remark. Already he was dramatizing Ruth, involving her, now in some pearl
