Notes
Cotillion! I do love that book. The language here is a delight: "Anyone less impressed with himself would almost certainly have turned to drink, gaming or ill-advised company as a balm to his depressed spirits, but Mr. Jack Westruther was so armored by detachment and wit that he barely had need to develop resilience of spirit."

Summary
Soon after their engagement, Freddy takes Kitty shopping to finally buy her the rubies he's wanted so long to bestow on her. The commonplace becomes a little more than that, when they run into Jack Westruther patronising the same shop.
