So they went round to the Custom House wharf. True as you live, there lay a dory, with oars and everything, right down at the foot of the little steps.

The grizzly bears were close to the stones which blocked the door-way.,"Had nothing to do with it," interrupted Isabella. "I dropped the handkerchief in the room. Is there anything so very extraordinary in that?" she added, impatiently. "The matter is very simple. I brought with me one of my mother's handkerchiefs instead of my own.
