"You were brought up at Arnwood, you told my father; did you not?" "Yes, I was brought up there, and remained there until the death of Colonel Beverley." "And you were educated, were you not?" "Yes; the chaplain taught me what little I do know." "Then, if you were brought up in the house and educated by the chaplain, surely Colonel Beverley never intended you for a forester?"
I may be wrong; but if you should fall in with an old lady, or something like one, when you go to Arnwood, mount her on your crupper, and away with her to Lymington as fast as you can ride. You understand me." Southwold nodded significantly, and squeezed Jacob's hand. "One word, Jacob Armitage; if I succeed in the capture by your means, it is but fair that you should have something for your hint.
The life of a king and many other lives were in jeopardy, and the orphans remained at Arnwood, still under the care of their elderly relation, at the time that our history commences.
It is not fit that the heiress of Arnwood should mix herself up with forester's daughters; and as we had friends near Lymington who offered to assist us, and take our sisters under their charge, we thought it better that they should go; for what would become of them, if any accident was to happen to Edward or to me? Now they will be provided for.
"But, my dear sister, it appears to me that his intentions are evident. Why has he rebuilt Arnwood I He is not going to surrender my property and make me a present of the house." "The reason for rebuilding the mansion was good. You were at the wars; it was possible that you might, or might not return.
That the body was that of some superior person disguised as a rustic, was evident, and this was corroborated by the conversation which took place between the two robbers. "Alas!" thought Edward, "the family of Arnwood appear not to be the only people who are in disguise in this forest. That poor boy! he must not remain there."

I should indeed be difficult to please if an apartment like this did not suit me. Besides, allow me to observe, that although I stated that the apartments at Arnwood were on a grander scale, I never said that I had ever been a possessor of one of them." Patience smiled and made no reply.
"I tell you that I had a strong suspicion of it, my dear child, first, from the noble appearance, which no forest garb could disguise; but what gave me further conviction was, that when at Lymington I happened to fall in with one Benjamin, who had been a servant at Arnwood, and interrogated him closely.
"She married a trooper the jilt! and went off to London when Agatha did. If I'd have thought that she would have done so, I would not have earned her away from Arnwood behind me, on a pillion, as I did; she might have been burned with the poor children, for all as I cared." "Was not the old lady killed?" "Yes; that is to say, she killed herself, rather than not kill Southwold."
