Lady Sherry And The Highwayman (1986) - Plot & Excerpts
He paused at Weston’s to inspect the progress of a coat he was having made, at Hoby’s to order a pair of fashionable Hessian boots with a tassel dangling from their V-shaped front, and at Lock’s to inquire about a chapeau bras. Since these acquisitions failed to cheer him, he next repaired to White’s, the most exclusive of all the gentlemen’s clubs, with its famed bow window from which Brummell and his cronies had used to sit and stare; and passed no little time playing whist and listening to on-dits concerning falling prices and the Elgin Marbles and most especially the highwayman who had escaped the gallows that morn. Andrew placed a wager in the betting book as to how soon the rogue would be found and then left behind those Corinthian pilasters, that handsome and well-proportioned facade, to sally forth next to Gentleman Jackson’s boxing salon, where he was privileged to go a round or two with the champion himself, thus vastly increasing his knowledge of the noble art of self-defense.
