English term

I did not at all lead up to

English to Portuguese Other General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
“ There are two little boys, and one of them is very fidgety and nervous. That is the eldest ; he likes to have his own way. The other is quieter in disposition, and easier to get on with. This gentleman’s lady is not well, but she will be better, she will get out right:” These statements I did not at all lead up to. They were given without any delay on the part of the medium, and they are the truth, though not the whole truth, as there is a third boy dead."
