Peak’s destination was Peckham Rye. On quitting the railway, he had a walk of some ten minutes along a road which smelt¹ of new bricks and stucco heated by the summer sun; an obscure passage led him into a street partly of dwelling-houses, partly of shops, the latter closed. He paused at the side door of one over which the street lamp dimly revealed—‘Button, Herbalist’.

His latch-key admitted him to total darkness, but he moved forward with the confidence of long use. He softly ascended³ two flights of stairs, opened a door, struck a match, and found himself in a comfortable sitting-room⁴, soon illumined by a reading-lamp. The atmosphere, as throughout the house, was strongly redolent of dried simples. Anyone acquainted with the characteristics of furnished lodgings⁵ must have surmised⁶ that Peak dwelt here among his own moveables, and was indebted to the occupier of the premises⁷ for bare walls alone; the tables and chairs, though plain enough, were such as civilisation⁸ permits; and though there were no pictures, sundry⁹ ornaments¹⁰ here and there made strong denial of lodging-house affinity¹¹. It was at once laboratory, study, and dwelling-room. Two large cabinets, something the worse for transportation, alone formed a link between this abode¹² and the old home at Twybridge. Books were not numerous, and a good microscope seemed to be the only scientific instrument of much importance. On door-pegs hung a knapsack, a botanist’s vasculum, and a geologist’s wallet.
