Mr.
Smolletâs spelling misled me, as I asked for Poterâs Court instead of Potterâs Court. However, when I had found the court, I had no difficulty in discovering Corcoranâs lodging-house. When I asked the man who came to the door for the âdepite,â he shook his head, and said: âI dunno âim. There ainât no such a person âere; I never âeard of âim in all my bloominâ days. Donât believe there ainât nobody of that kind livinâ ere or anywheres.â I took out Smolletâs letter, and as I read it it seemed to me that the lesson of the spelling of the name of the court might guide me. âWhat are you?â I asked.
