'Malbray Asylum's somewhere in Hackney' says Harry. 'I expect a cabbie could take us there.'

“I’m happy to stay round here and watch the inquest this afternoon after lunch if that frees you up for sleuthing at the asylum or following those men.” Isolde says to her companions.
Re: Chapter 4: October 26th
"Well, I'm not much good at sneaking around," says Alexander, "but I could certainly go to the asylum and ask questions. As long as some of us attend the inquest, they can fill in the rest of us later. Those men are bound to show up at it too, which gives an opportunity for some of those who attend to try to follow them afterwards and see to whom they report."

Harry says 'They drove off in a Hansom so we might struggle to keep up with them.'

”We could hire our own, could we not?” said Vic. “And perhaps if we keep an eye out for when they arrive, we might find out if the cab is waiting for them or if they’re just hiring one off the street.”

Harry chuckles, 'They drove their own cab, I know because it said 'Malbray Asylum' on the back.'
Re: Chapter 4: October 26th
"Aye, we'll hire our own and have it ready to follow them in advance," says Alexander.

Crozier:
"I shall stay here and keep company with Miss Isolde. It may be that these ruffians return here in any event. And there may be more to be gleaned from these grim proceedings."
"Miss Isolde, that being the case, I believe another dash in a hansom for a quick lunch is in order? Perhaps back to the City if you have no objection?"

"I could look fer the asylum this afternoon with 'arry," says Melody, "Some of us should in any case. It may be that the men won't return, an' it's better to search fer the place in daylight.
"I'm sure the cabbie will find it, they know where everything is."

”I’ll come with you to the asylum,” said Vic, thinking that too many heavy lunches would leave her unable to get into her clothes. She had enough trouble trying to find a tailor to make her trouser suit last time... ...

'I'd rather visit the madhouse than sit through another one of these hearings' says Harry.

Vic looked at the doorbell and paused. ”What are we going to say?” she asked. “We were in the vicinity and just popped in for a look around?”
Re: Chapter 4: October 26th
“Perhaps we can find tea after the inquest.” Says Isolde as they rattle over the cobbles towards the next inquest. Once inside she pays particular attention to the horrid men without being too obvious about it. She flushed at the children’s attention, “I wonder what they would have made of Vic’s clothing if they hoot over a few charms and crystals.” She thinks.

Harry looks down at his clothes and then over at Melody 'P'raps they're looking for staff mam?'. He doffs his hat to Vic and gives an obsequious bow.
He straightens up again and mimes taking Vic's arm, 'Or maybe you're feeling quite frightfully unwell?' he says in a high pitched voice.

”I haven’t been feeling myself recently, Doctor Brown,” replied Vic with a grin. “Seriously, though, what are we going to say? I don’t think they just let people in for a look around anymore.”

Re: Chapter 4: October 26th
'The way I see it there are two approaches, sneaky or straight up' says Harry. 'Sneaky includes me and Melody pretending we're looking for work. Straight up, some of us go in there, tell them we're investigating the East End murders, ask if they've had any recent admissions or escapes.'
Re: Chapter 4: October 26th
"I think we should play it straight," says Alexander. "We'll get a lot further by being honest."
