The Bastard: the Kent Family Chronicles
“Burke and Dr. Franklin i “WIPE THAT BLACK MESS from your hands, lad, and come up front at once!”
Startled, Phillipe nearly dropped the leather ink ball. Interruptions of the workday were rare; Mr. Sholto not only preached but practiced diligence. Yet there he was at the door leading to the shop, gesturing with some urgency. When Phillipe glanced at Hosea, the latter shrugged, equally baffled.
Phillipe grabbed a rag and cleaned his hands as best he could. Then he hurried to the doorway, where Sh...olto enlightened him a little further: “I promised to introduce you to a colonial, didn’t I? Well, Franklin’s come by, out of the blue! In company with another of my good friends. Quickly, quickly!—we don’t want to take too much time away from the press.”
Phillipe followed the printer into the front shop. Two soberly dressed gentlemen were conversing with Mrs. Emma. Marie, busy dusting the bookshelves with a feather whisk, gave her son a surprised stare as he entered. Following Mr.MoreLess
