Enquire within upon everything

I
much
wished
for
our
arrival
at
the
spot
where
we
should
alight,
for
she
commenced
a
story
about
an
'andsome
young
nephew
of
hers,
who
was
a
distinguished
hofficer
of
the
harmy.
This
was
suggested
to
her,
no
doubt,
by
the
presence
in
the
omnibus
of
a
fine-looking
young
fellow
with
a
moustache.
She
said
that
at
present
her
nephew
was
stationed
in
hireland;
but
he
expected
soon
to
be
hordered
to
South
Hafrica.
The
gentleman
with
the
moustache
seemed
much
amused,
and
smilingly
asked
her
whether
her
nephew
was
at
all
hambitious?
I
saw
that
he
(the
gentleman
with
the
moustache)
was
jesting,
and
I
would
have
given
anything
to
have
been
released
from
the
unpleasant
predicament
I
was
in.
But
what
was
more
annoyance
when
Mrs.
H.
proceeded
to
say
to
this
youth,
whose
face
was
radiant
with
humour,
that
it
was
the
'ight
of
her
nephew's
hambition
to
serve
his
country
in
the
hour
of
need;
and
then
she
proceeded
to
ask
her
fellow-traveller
his
opinion,
of
the
hupshot
of
the
war--remarking
that
she
'oped
it
would
soon
be
hover!
