ET:
I am not fond of crowds — The crowd that I dislike most is the crowd near Clapham Junction on a Saturday afternoon. Though born and bred a Clapham Junction man, I have become indifferently so. Perhaps I ought to call my feeling fear: alarm comes first followed rapidly by dislike — It is a disintegrated crowd, rather suspicious and shy perhaps, where few know, or could guess much about, the others.
Benedict Mackay:
Helen, perhaps with warmer feelings, remembers that Clapham Junction was often a stage on her homeward journeys with Edward after their courting walks in places like Wimbledon and Merton.
