Stair would need many horses for his riding if he meant to follow in the footsteps of Kennedy McClure, and she could never, never bide to see her darling enter as a bride into a house with the mischancy name of Supsorrow. Besides, she herself had no heirs, and it was not meet that Ladykirk and Balmacminto should go to any other than Patsy.
She was wealthy, but had been so shy of men that she had escaped numberless wooers, sorely enamoured of the Balmacminto estates, and now at the age of forty-five showed the prettiest fringes of white curls in the world, a complexion of seventeen, and something so trustful and rare in the way of brown eyes that Raeburn, at the height of his fame, had painted her for the mere love of winsomeness in growing old.
But the dearest lady in the world came with me you would love her Miss Aline Minto of Balmacminto. One day I shall bring her to see you!" "What is the reason she did not come with you here?" said the Princess. No, she is not at all the type of old maid she is not an old maid at all.
And so Julian acts as her protecting angel " "Oh," said Patsy calmly, "there is no love-making in it, you understand they are both too old, of course. But Julian is the handsomest and richest bachelor in our parts, and Miss Aline well, she is Miss Aline and owner of the Balmacminto estates. So I think she and uncle make what is it called? a kind of defensive and offensive alliance.
He has never ventured beyond the Plainstones of Dumfries on a cattle-fair day. Besides many women have told me their sorrows." "Yes," promised Patsy. "I don't know about princesses, but I do know that many girls must have loved you, Uncle Julian, for that is the reason you are so sweet to me now!" Julian's chief ally in the county was Miss Aline Minto of Balmacminto, who lived at Ladykirk.
Presently Sir Bunny Bunny made his bow and departed, cursing the interference of Julian Wemyss in what had long been the desire of his heart, the union of the Bunny Bunny properties with those of Balmacminto. He had thought about it so long that it had become to his mind an accomplished fact.
