The Mystery of Edwin Drood Chapter 11 - A Picture and a Ring

The Mystery of Edwin Drood Chapter 11 - A Picture and a Ring

In which we are introduced to the studious Mr. Grewgious, whose humdrum chambers at Staple Inn are enlivened by the visit of young Edwin Drood amidst a thick London fog, leading to a convivial repast and a discourse on the nature of true love as understood by a man of business and order.
