Excerpt from Her Own Devices
The young woman who swung into the glowing heat of the Circus Road, on a day of a recent July, met three persons.
The gentleman who had lost his way while looking for a house thought that she was a fine girl, spoilt by red hair; the lady, calling in St. John's Wood, remembered the reputation of the district, but noticing a brick-red bow on a blue skirt, condemned herself as uncharitable; file young man from Mills Parker, general drapers, hesitated between nodding and bowing to a bargain customer. Miss Susan Stanier fore saw his hesitation, and passed him rather too unconsciously.
