Were Lord Arleigh twenty times a lord, he should not break his wife's heart in that cold, cruel fashion. A sudden resolve came to Mrs. Dornham she would go to Beechgrove and see him herself. It he were angry and sent her away from Winiston House, it would not matter she would have told him the truth.
Winton Smith's Beechgrove Bee, a bitch whose work was practically faultless, and the first Field Trial Champion among Spaniels. Other good Clumbers who earned distinction in the field were Beechgrove Minette, Beechgrove Maud, the Duke of Portland's Welbeck Sambo, and Mr. Phillips' Rivington Honey, Rivington Pearl, and Rivington Reel.
"Another thing, Norman I do not wish my daughter to go home to Beechgrove until her story has been made known. Then I will see that all honor is paid to her." So it was agreed, and great was the sensation that ensued. "The Arleigh Romance," as it was called, was carried from one end of the kingdom to the other.
Madaline was overwhelmed. "You are too good to me," she said "you spoil me. How am I to thank you?" "Your wedding-dress plain, simple, but rich, to suit the occasion will be sent to St. Mildred's," said the duchess "also a handsome traveling costume; but all the rest of the packages can be sent to Beechgrove. You will need them only there." Madaline kissed the hand extended to her.
When he reached Beechgrove, he told his fellow-servants what had happened, and many were the comments offered about the marriage that was yet no marriage the wedding that was no wedding the husband and wife who were so many miles apart. What could it mean? Three days after Lord Arleigh's most inauspicious marriage. The Duchess of Hazlewood sat in her drawing-room alone.
He came in at last, but the master of Beechgrove barely recognized him, he was so completely changed. Years seemed to have fallen from him. His face was radiant with a great glad light. He held out his hand to his friend. "Congratulate me," he said; "I am one of the happiest men in the world." "What has happened?" asked Lord Arleigh, in surprise.
"I might as well wish for one of the stars as for his love it seems just as far off." Lord Arleigh did not go to Beechgrove as he had intended. He found so many old friends and so many engagements in London that he was not inclined to leave it. Then, too, he began to notice many little things which made him feel uncomfortable.
She asked some trifling question about Beechgrove, and then said, suddenly: "I should like to see that fine old place of yours, Norman. I was only ten when mamma took me there the last time; that was rather too young to appreciate its treasures. I should like to see it again." "I hope you will see it, Philippa; I have many curiosities to show you.
One of the newspapers, however, heard of it, and in a little paragraph told that Lord Arleigh of Beechgrove had gone to Tintagel for the summer. That paragraph had one unexpected result. It was the first of May. The young nobleman was thinking of the May days when he was a boy of how the common near his early home was yellow with gorse, and the hedges were white with hawthorn.
If you could make me out innocent, you would marry her; if you cannot what then? Am I right?" All the pride of his nature rose in rebellion against this coarse speech. He, an Arleigh of Beechgrove, to hear this reprobate sneering at his love! His first impulse was an angry one, but he controlled himself. After all, it was Madaline's father for Madaline's sake he would be patient.
