Mr. Lorry is troubled by the violence in the city as he sits in his room at
the Paris branch of Telson's Bank. Suddenly, Lucie and Doctor
Alexandre Manette rush into the room, and Lucie frantically tells him
that the revolutionaries have taken Charles, the prisoner. A mob
enters the courtyard outside and begins sharpening its weapons on a
large grindstone there. Encouraging Lucie to be calm, Mr. Lorry
sends her into another room and informs Doctor Manette that the
mob is butchering the prisoners of La Force. As a former inmate of
the Bastille, Doctor Manette has some influence on the
revolutionaries, so he leaves to try to save Darnay's life.

4. The
Shadow
Summary
Despite his personal devotion to Lucie and her daughter,
Mr. Lorry recognizes as a businessman that keeping the
family of a La Force prisoner at Tellson's could endanger
the bank. Consequently, he finds a nearby apartment for
them and leaves Jerry Cruncher there to protect them. The
day drags on with no word from Doctor Alexandre Manette.
Finally, that evening, Monsieur Defarge delivers a message
to Mr. Lorry from the Doctor, which states that Darnay is
safe for the moment and that Defarge has a note from
Darnay to Lucie. As Mr. Lorry takes Defarge to see Lucie,
Madame Defarge and The Vengeance join them. Defarge
explains that the women want to see Lucie and her child so
that they can identify and protect her, should the need arise.
After reading the message from her husband, Lucie thanks
Madame Defarge and begs her to help Darnay. Madame
Defarge responds coldly to Lucie's entreaties. When Miss
Pross and young Lucie present themselves to Madame
Defarge, she barely notices Miss Pross, focusing instead on
young Lucie and casting a literal and figurative shadow on
both Lucie and her daughter.
