By the way, dear Mrs. Bransby, it _was_ reported that your step-son, Mr. Theodore, intended to withdraw his candidature at the next election. But I am told on the _best_ authority--Mr. Lowe, the political agent--that that is a mistake. So I hope we may see him among the legislators. Quite the figure for it, I'm sure. However, of course, you must know all that news far better than I. I hope to _see_ our dear Miranda before leaving town.
