She would certainly have been convicted, for it was in evidence that she had sworn that the Marquis of Arondelle had been the confederate of the thieves and murderers, and had himself received and delivered to her the stolen booty; and her testimony was rebutted on the spot, not only by the high character and standing of the marquis, but by witnesses who proved an alibi for him.
Ae wha is noo ca'd his grace the Duk' o' Harewood!" said the witness, emphatically, triumphantly. The statement fell like a thunderbolt on the whole assembly. When Rose Cameron first said that she went to the castle to keep tryste with the Marquis of Arondelle, those who heard her distrusted the evidence of their own ears, and turned to each other, inquiring in whispers: "What did she say?"
The letter will explain itself." Here the lawyer cleared his throat, and began to read: "ELMHURST HOUSE, Kensington, London, "Monday, May 1st, 18 . "MY DEAREST ONLY CHILD: Blessings on your head! Nothing could have made me happier, than has your betrothal to so admirable a young man as the Marquis of Arondelle.
It waur a Russia leather traveling dressing-bag for his lairdship, the whilk the master had ta'en unco guid care suld be as brawa bag as ony to be boughten in Lunnen town itsel', whilk mysel' was commissioned, and proud I waur, to tak', wi' my master's duty, to his lairdship." "Doubtless. Now tell the jury at what hour you took this wedding offering to Lord Arondelle."
After twelve months spent in travel, they returned to England only that the anticipated heir of the dukedom might be born on the patrimonial estate of Hereward Hold. There was the utmost fulfillment of hope. The expected child proved to be a fine boy, who was christened for his father, Archibald-Alexander-John, by courtesy styled Marquis of Arondelle.
"Oh, a handsome rascal; is sort of kinsman and hanger-on of the young Marquis of Arondelle; he used to be. I don't know anything more about him." "Perhaps he is the man." "Oh, no, he is not. There is no man in the convent. Well, we go up to London again in February. It will be her last season.
And many an honest peasant went home from the feast lamenting the behavior of the young heir, and trying to excuse or palliate his viciousness by the vulgar proverb: "Boys will be boys." And so the reputation of the young Marquis of Arondelle suffered and continued to suffer from the evil doings of his double.
He partook of a light luncheon while his horses were being harnessed, and then entered the chaise, attended by his valet, and ordered the coachman to drive as fast as possible, without hurting the horses, to Lone. He was most anxious to reach the "Arondelle Arms," to see if any telegram from Detective Setter had reached the office for him.
My marriage will not deprive you of your daughter, but give you a dear and noble son. You know it is settled that after our brief wedding we shall return to Lone, and you and the duke, and Arondelle and myself, will all live here together until the meeting of Parliament in February, and then we shall go up to London together. So cheer up, papa.
