Stone's illustration for Book 3, "A Long Lane," Chapter 12, "Meaning Mischief," appeared in the June, 1865, instalment. The scene is the Lammles' breakfast parlour where the couple have recently considered their prospects and have mutually agreed to use their knowledge of Rokesmith's proposal to Bella to manipulate Boffin to discharge the secretary and replace him with Alfred Lammle in order to advance their larger scheme of defrauding Boffin. Seeing Fascination Fledgeby arriving at their door, Lammle retreats, leaving his wife to deal with their inconvenient acquaintance. When Sophronia Lammle reveals their temporary difficulty with a money-lender who is a mutual acquaintance, Fledgeby promises to be of assistance to the Lammles in intervening on their behalf with Riah of Pubsey & Co. In fact, in his true guise as the firm's owner, Fledgeby subsequently enjoins his employee to act on Lammle's note and move to confiscate the Lammles' furniture at their Sackville Street residence. Although the illustration does not in the least suggest Fledgeby's duplicity, Stone captures well Mrs. Lammle's feeling of discomfort at Fledgeby's kissing her hand to seal his promise of assistance. Scanned image and text by Philip V. Allingham.
