"Oh, for heaven's sake! Miss Broadhurst, not there!" "Miss Broadhurst, if you'll take my opinion," and "Miss Broadhurst, if I may advise ." "Grace Nugent!" cried Lady Clonbrony. "Miss Broadhurst always listens to you.
It's seldom she gets anything she likes, with all her refined notions, but here you have, as you might say, amusement and instruction combined. If only I hadn't got that tedious market ... but go I must; it's not a job I can give to Broadhurst, bidding for them heifers and I mean to have 'em. I hear Furnese is after 'em, but he can't bid up to me."
"I can't abide to dress any young lady who says never mind, and it will do very well. That, and her never talking to one confidantially, or trusting one with the least bit of her secrets, is the thing I can't put up with from Miss Nugent; and Miss Broadhurst holding the pins to me, as much as to say, do your business, Petito, and don't talk.
At times a single gunboat puts in an appearance. There may be a French steamer with a blue anchor on a white flag bound for Sherbro, or the Isles de Los; and a queer Noah's Ark kind of craft, belonging to Mr. Broadhurst, a partner in Randall and Fisher's, runs to the river Scarcies and others. These are the grandees of the waters.
'Miss Broadhurst! said Grace Nugent; 'how did you get round to Miss Broadhurst? 'Oh! by the way of Tipperary, said Lord Colambre. 'I beg your pardon, my lord, it was apropos to a good fortune, which, I hope, will not be out of your way, even if you went by Tipperary. She has, besides L100,000 in the funds, a clear landed property of L10,000 per annum.
My Lady Clonbrony came to hope, to beg, that Miss Broadhurst would not think of running away; but Miss Broadhurst could not be prevailed upon to stay.
"There's more than he gives a double arsenic dip, surelye." "Surelye but they mixes the can a bit. Broadhurst says as Socknersh's second dip was as strong as his first." The feeling about Socknersh's incapacity reached such a point that more than one warning was given Joanna for her father's sake, and one at least for her own, from Arthur Alce.
Broadhurst expected it, or to marry because the world said he was going to be married.
Sure, Miss Nugent, you, that are so quick, can't but know I would apostrophise Miss Broadhurst that is, but that won't be long so, I hope. My Lord Colambre, have you seen much yet of that young lady? 'No, sir. 'Then I hope you won't be long so.
I'd get her off before you could say Jack Robinson, and thank you too, if she had 50,000l. down, or 1,000l. a-year in land. Would you have a man so d d nice as to balk, when house and land is agoing a going a going! because of the incumbrance of a little learning? But, after all, I never heard that Miss Broadhurst was any thing of a learned lady."
