The Old House in Vauxhall Walk by Charlotte Riddell, J.H. Riddell
Filthy of person, repulsive to look at, hard of heart as she was, he yet beheld another phantom, which, coming into the room, met her almost on the threshold, taking her by the hand, and pleading, as it seemed, for assistance. He could not hear all that passed, but a word now and then fell upon his ear. Some talk of former days; some mention of a fair young mother--an appeal, as it seemed, to a time when they were tiny brother and sister, and the accursed greed for gold had not divided them.
