In Chapter Seven, Moll is in England with only 200 or 300 guineas, no friends, and the woman who had set her up with her brother was dead, as was her captain husband. Moll was in any case not anxious to meet anyone who knew about her incestuous marriage, since she was now pretending to be unmarried. As a result, she moves to Bath.
