Mary Lennox , orphaned in India, had been sent to live with her uncle at Misselthwaite Manor, far on the Yorkshire moors. She had made a friend of Martha, the housemaid, and heard of Martha's brother Dickon and his great love for wild animals. She had also heard a strange sound of crying in the night! But above all, she had discovered the whereabouts of the little garden ... the secret garden.

by William Makepeace Thackeray, dramatised as a serial in thirteen parts by Howard Agg.
Pen is telling his friend Harry Foker that he is thinking of marrying Blanche Amory, when Harry confesses that he himself is in love with her. Pen meets Captain Costigan with Mrs. Bolton, his landlady, and her daughter Fanny at Vauxhall Gardens. Pen calls on Fanny at Shepherd's Inn and finds that Mr. Bows is lodging there.
Despite his many memorable activities in other fields, it is probably as one of the greatest advocates of all time that Lord Birkett will be remembered. His own advocacy was based on a deep knowledge of the law and a deeper understanding of human nature. In this talk, originally broadcast last year as a postscript to a series of sketches of great advocates, he speaks of the principles and practice of advocacy, not merely in Courts of Law but wherever men feel impelled to convince others of the justice of their cause.
