"How not, dear?" "You should have told me about your engagement that you were going to marry Lady Mabel Ashbourne." "Should I?" exclaimed Rorie, amazed.

To SIR JOSHUA REYNOLDS: Ashbourne, July 21.

We drank tea at Nottingham on Monday and went up to the Castle. We arrived at Cambridge by 6 o'clock on Tuesday evening, and found Edward deep in his studies....
