CHAPTER 1Visible text2 paragraphs
On the morning after the arrival of the party in town, Monica being all anxiety to see her lover, Dr. Byrom accompanied her in a hackney-coach to the prison in which poor Jemmy was confined. During the drive she supported herself tolerably well, but on reaching Newgate she well-nigh fainted.
The necessary arrangements for her admittance to the prisoner having been made by the doctor, he assisted her out of the coach.
