"The son’s a little in our way at present, I’m afraid, Ned," said the old man, humouring the joke.
"Very much," said the Captain.
"Nevertheless, we’ll drink him," pursued Sol. "So, here’s to Dombey and Son."
"Oh, very well, Uncle," said the boy, merrily. "Since you have introduced the mention of her, and have connected me with her and have said that I know all about her, I shall make bold to amend the toast. So here’s to Dombey — and Son — and Daughter!" [Chapter 4, "In which some more First Appearances are made on the Stage of these Adventures," 46]
