Yet I did not like Angus nearly so well as the rest. And yet he belonged my sort of people. It was a puzzle altogether, and not a pleasant puzzle. And how anybody was to get out of the one set into the other set, I could not tell at all. Stop! I did know one other person at Brocklebank who belonged this new sort of people. It was Ephraim Hebblethwaite.
Here we were to stay with Dr and Mrs Benn, friends of Father's, who made much of us, and seemed to think themselves quite honoured in having us: and Sam went off at once on a fresh horse to Brocklebank, which he hoped to reach by midnight. They would be looking for him.
I am very thankful that the lines have fallen to me still in my dear North I have not pleasant recollections of the South. And I fancy but perhaps unjustly that we Northerners have a deeper, more yearning love for our hills and dales than they have down there. We are about midway between Brocklebank and Abbotscliff, which is just where I would have chosen to be, if I could have had the choice.
I know nothing but the facts that you are married, and where you live, which I learned by accident, and I instantly thought that your house, if you would take me in, would be a safer refuge than either Brocklebank or Abbotscliff. Now tell me some thing in turn. Are my father and Flora well?" "Yes, for anything I know." "And all at Brocklebank?" "Quite." "And the Keiths?
Suddenly a sound broke across it all, that sent everything vanishing away, present and future, good and ill, and carried me off to the old winter parlour at Brocklebank. "Bless me, man! don't you know how to carry a basket?" said a voice, which I felt as ready and as glad to welcome as if it had been that of an angel. "Well, you Londoners have not much pith.
That communication between the two towns was suspended, is apparent from Jacobs' letter of the 22nd of April, to which I have referred. The conclusion, I think, is that, under the circumstances, there is a reasonable amount of evidence in support of the statement of President Wadsworth. The loss of Wadsworth and Brocklebank was severely felt by the colony.
I told her I did not know, and the idea had never before occurred to me: and she said, `Well, then, it is high time it did, and some to spare! Do all the people in Cumberland ask you such droll questions?" I said I thought not, but my Aunt Kezia did, often enough. "Well, she is a real curiosity!" said Miss Newton, and went away laughing. Brocklebank Fells, April the 10th, 1746.
Samuel Brocklebank, of Rowley, was born in England, and was also about forty-six years of age at the time of his death. In November, 1675, he informed Governor Leverett that he had impressed twelve men for the war. Of these, seven returned to Rowley. His correspondence with the Council shows him to have been a man of respectable attainments.
I was thought sickly in my youth, and as Brocklebank Fells is but a bleak place, I was packed off to Carlisle, where Grandmamma lived, and there I have been with her until six weeks back, when she went to live with Uncle Charles down in the South, and I came home to Brocklebank, being thought to have now outgrown my sickliness.
"Mind ye, He was unco gentle wi' the puir despised publicans, and vara tender to the wife that had been a sinner. It was the Pharisees He was hard on. And that's just what the minister is. Miss Cary, he's just the best blessing the Lord ever sent till Brocklebank!" "I hardly thought, Elspie," said I, a little mischievously, "to hear you speak so well of a Prelatist clergyman."
