Miss
Moss
,
a
dark-eyed
maid
in
curl-papers
,
appeared
with
the
teapot
,
and
,
smiling
,
asked
the
Colonel
how
he
had
slep
?
And
she
brought
him
in
the
Morning
Post
,
with
the
names
of
all
the
great
people
who
had
figured
at
Lord
Steyne
's
entertainment
the
night
before
.
It
contained
a
brilliant
account
of
the
festivities
and
of
the
beautiful
and
accomplished
Mrs.
Rawdon
Crawley
's
admirable
personifications
.
After
a
lively
chat
with
this
lady
(
who
sat
on
the
edge
of
the
breakfast
table
in
an
easy
attitude
displaying
the
drapery
of
her
stocking
and
an
ex-white
satin
shoe
,
which
was
down
at
heel
)
,
Colonel
Crawley
called
for
pens
and
ink
,
and
paper
,
and
being
asked
how
many
sheets
,
chose
one
which
was
brought
to
him
between
Miss
Moss
's
own
finger
and
thumb
.
Many
a
sheet
had
that
dark-eyed
damsel
brought
in
;
many
a
poor
fellow
had
scrawled
and
blotted
hurried
lines
of
entreaty
and
paced
up
and
down
that
awful
room
until
his
messenger
brought
back
the
reply
.
Poor
men
always
use
messengers
instead
of
the
post
.
Who
has
not
had
their
letters
,
with
the
wafers
wet
,
and
the
announcement
that
a
person
is
waiting
in
the
hall
?
Now
on
the
score
of
his
application
,
Rawdon
had
not
many
misgivings
.
DEAR
BECKY
,
(
Rawdon
wrote
)
I
HOPE
YOU
SLEPT
WELL
.
Do
n't
be
FRIGHTENED
if
I
do
n't
bring
you
in
your
COFFY
.
Last
night
as
I
was
coming
home
smoaking
,
I
met
with
an
ACCADENT
.
I
was
NABBED
by
Moss
of
Cursitor
Street
--
from
whose
GILT
AND
SPLENDID
PARLER
I
write
this
--
the
same
that
had
me
this
time
two
years
.
Miss
Moss
brought
in
my
tea
--
she
is
grown
very
FAT
,
and
,
as
usual
,
had
her
STOCKENS
DOWN
AT
HEAL
.
It
's
Nathan
's
business
--
a
hundred-and-fifty
--
with
costs
,
hundred-and-seventy
.
Please
send
me
my
desk
and
some
CLOTHS
--
I
'm
in
pumps
and
a
white
tye
(
something
like
Miss
M
's
stockings
)
--
I
've
seventy
in
it
.
And
as
soon
as
you
get
this
,
Drive
to
Nathan
's
--
offer
him
seventy-five
down
,
and
ASK
HIM
TO
RENEW
--
say
I
'll
take
wine
--
we
may
as
well
have
some
dinner
sherry
;
but
not
PICTURS
,
they
're
too
dear
.
If
he
wo
n't
stand
it
.
Take
my
ticker
and
such
of
your
things
as
you
can
SPARE
,
and
send
them
to
Balls
--
we
must
,
of
coarse
,
have
the
sum
to-night
.
It
wo
n't
do
to
let
it
stand
over
,
as
to-morrow
's
Sunday
;
the
beds
here
are
not
very
CLEAN
,
and
there
may
be
other
things
out
against
me
--
I
'm
glad
it
a
n't
Rawdon
's
Saturday
for
coming
home
.
God
bless
you
.
Yours
in
haste
,
R.
C.
P.S.
Make
haste
and
come
.
This
letter
,
sealed
with
a
wafer
,
was
dispatched
by
one
of
the
messengers
who
are
always
hanging
about
Mr.
Moss
's
establishment
,
and
Rawdon
,
having
seen
him
depart
,
went
out
in
the
court-yard
and
smoked
his
cigar
with
a
tolerably
easy
mind
--
in
spite
of
the
bars
overhead
--
for
Mr.
Moss
's
court-yard
is
railed
in
like
a
cage
,
lest
the
gentlemen
who
are
boarding
with
him
should
take
a
fancy
to
escape
from
his
hospitality
.
