About this book
A letter from India informs Dr. Pringle that his cousin, Colonel Armour, had died at Hydrabad and left him his residuary legatee. One account says that “we went to hear Dr. Drystour in the forenoon, who had a most weighty sermon on the tenth chapter of Nehemiah”. A steam-boat journey to Glasgow is told in the words “we took shipping in the steam-boat for Glasgow”.
A letter about London says that “London is not a place to come to hear the tidings of salvation preeched”. A carriage scene says that “the blithe faces of the Doctor and Mrs. Pringle were discovered” and that “The boys huzzaed, the Doctor flung them penny-pieces, and the mistress baubees.”
