There were two carriages in the yard of the Bear at Devizes at twenty to eleven on the eighth of October, and it was raining hard enough that nobody was standing about in it, and both of them were black.
One was the Bristol night coach. The other belonged to the Duke of Wraysbury, who had to be at Bristol before the court sat with nine hundred pounds to keep his brother out of the Sheriff's ward — and who had told his man not to stop for anything short of a broken wheel.
Esther Vane had four shillings, a box, and a place in Corn Street that began on Monday. She got into the wrong one.
Nothing happened in that carriage. Forty-one miles, eight hours, and nothing at all — and she knew by three in the morning that it was not going to make the slightest difference.
