ABSTRACT

At eleven o’clock the next day Montgomery hastened to the house where his unknown correspondent was to meet him. He was shewn by the person who belonged to it into a dining room, where he had not waited long before a chair14 was brought into the house, and a female figure issued from it, who was by the same person conducted up stairs; and having entered the room, and taken off the hood which concealed her face, Montgomery with amazement beheld Mrs. Royston.
