Title
Meyrick, Mrs.
Description
A cheerful little woman who has made a brave struggle against poverty and who takes charge of Mirah Cohen when Daniel Deronda rescues her from drowning. "She was a lively little woman, half French, half Scotch, with a pretty articulateness of speech that seemed to make daylight in her hearer's understanding. Though she was not yet fifty, her rippling hair, covered by a quakerish net cap, was chiefly gray, but her eyebrows were brown as the bright eyes below them; her black dress, almost like a priest's cassock with its row of buttons, suited a neat figure hardly five feet high.
