Berryl, it is quite a voluntary act, take notice, on your part; sign or not, witness or not, as you please, gentlemen, said Mordicai, sticking his hands in his pockets, and recovering his look of black and fixed determination. 'Witness it, witness it, my dear lord, said Mr. Berryl, looking at his mother and weeping sisters; 'witness it, quick! 'Mr.
"Monster is not actionable I wish you had called me knave," said Mordicai, grinning a horrible smile; and taking up the bond deliberately, returned it to Mr. Berryl: "This paper is worth nothing to me, sir it is not witnessed." Mr. Berryl hastily left the room, and returned with Lord Colambre. Mordicai changed countenance and grew pale, for a moment, at sight of Lord Colambre.
Lady Berryl went to Lord Clonbrony's apartment; she was met by Sir Arthur. "Come, my love! come quick! Lord Colambre is arrived." "I know it; and does he go to Ireland? Speak instantly, that I may tell Grace Nugent." "You can tell her nothing yet, my love; for we know nothing. Lord Colambre will not say a word till you come; but I know, by his countenance, that he has good and extraordinary news."
Tell me that, for I love to hear odd things. 'Perhaps you will not think it odd, said she. 'One evening but I should begin by telling you that three of her admirers, beside Sir Arthur Berryl, had followed her to Buxton, and had been paying their court to her all the time we were there; and at last grew impatient for her decision. 'Ay, for her definitive! said Lord Clonbrony.
I don't know yet I don't know whether I am happy or not. Explain all this to me, my dear friend; for I am still as if I were in a dream." With all the delicacy which Lady Clonbrony deemed superfluous, Lady Berryl explained. Nothing could surpass the astonishment of Grace, on first learning that Mr. Nugent was not her father.
'Thank Heaven! thought Lord Colambre, 'that I did not horsewhip that mean wretch! This warning shall be of use to me. But it is not time to think of that yet. Lord Colambre turned from his own affairs to those of his friend, to offer all the assistance and consolation in his power. Sir John Berryl died that night.
"Well, now, that's very extraordinary, in the style in which she has been brought up; yet books and all that are so fashionable now, that it's very natural," said Lady Clonbrony. About this time, Mr. Berryl, Lord Colambre's Cambridge friend, for whom his lordship had fought the battle of the curricle with Mordicai, came to town.
I have explained my reasons to my dear aunt Could I have any concealment from her, to whom, from my earliest childhood, I owe everything that kindness and affection could give? She is satisfied she consents to my living henceforward with Lady Berryl. Let me have the pleasure of seeing, by your conduct, that you approve of mine. Your affectionate cousin and friend, GRACE NUGENT.
'This paper is worth nothing to me, sir it is not witnessed. Mr. Berryl hastily left the room, and returned with Lord Colambre. Mordicai changed countenance and grew pale, for a moment, at sight of Lord Colambre.
But I am sorry, very sorry, it must be so." "Oh, spare me your sorrow!" "My sorrow is for Lord Colambre," said Miss Nugent. "Where will he find such a wife? Not in Miss Berryl, I am sure, pretty as she is; a mere fine lady! Is it possible that Lord Colambre should prefer such a girl Lord Colambre!"
