I have to see the sentences to be able to answer this. I'm happy to help if I can.
Answer:
The 2nd option -
"I kiss your hand, miss," said Mr. Lorry, with the manners of an earlier date, as he made his formal bow again, and took his seat.
Explanation:
You would use commas at the end of a quote instead of periods or anything else during the dialogue of the story.
There are exceptions to this rule though. If you are following the dialogue with an action and not a dialogue tag, then you use periods.
Additionally, you can also end with a period if there is an action between TWO separate statements.
There are a few other cases like using a en-dash if you're interrupting a sentence with dialogue and using open quotation marks for long pieces of dialogue, but for the most part, you use commas to end your dialogue.
Take care and have a lovely rest of your day! :)
In my opinion this will help you a lot .....
