Excerpt from Bam Wildfire: A Character Sketch Lor, mum, seeing as how he's called and called, and you was always hout, said Miss Whitechapel, reproach fully, for not only had she all a woman's keen interest in aiding and abetting an unlawful love affair, but she was also strongly susceptible to those metallic influences which had naturally ceased with the visits paid by the gent. Bam walked to the table, and laid both card and love message down upon it, then, when the door closed, she drew up a chair, and sat down with all the lovely sum mer evening before her in which to look, and think, and remember. There they lay, in heaped up riches, representing all the colour, the warmth, the romance of a mostly colourless life, and she could not thrust them away as she had done that from which their gift had sprung, and love itself could not have breathed out his greeting with more subtle appeal to heart and senses, than did these silent suppliants, all pleading eloquently for the forgiveness of the man who sent them, the man whom a year ago she had thrust out of her life with both hands, and banished from her door.
