I saw nothing of the young lady, who, depend upon it, sir, would have immediately caught my attention had I seen her." "You have stolen me from my home, sir," she exclaimed in a piteous, almost whining voice, "and I am without clothes except the dress that I am wearing, and they will soon be in rags, which will flutter if I begin to dance.".
