Those horrid words which Guss Mildmay had said to her, as to all being fish for his net, had no effect of that nature. She assured herself that she knew herself too well to allow anything of that kind to influence her. That she, Lady George Germain, the daughter of the Dean of Brotherton, a married woman, should be afraid of any man, afraid of any too close intimacy!
'In the servants' hall? Workmen don't sit down with ladies and gentlemen. Did Miss Brotherton send you to ask me? She shook her head. 'Then you had better come and lunch with me. She shrugged her shoulders. 'I hope you will some day honour my little fragment of a house. It is a curious old place, I said. 'I don't like musty old places, she replied.
'Your room was got ready for you, anyhow, Master Cumbermede, said Mrs Wilson. 'It does not follow that I occupied it, I returned. 'I can prove that false, said Brotherton; but, probably lest he should be required to produce his witness, only added, 'At all events, he was seen in the morning, carrying the sword across the court before any one had been admitted.
"Dear me! Was he like Brotherton?" "I don't think I am a judge of likenesses." "He's a healthy child?" "I can't say. He seemed to be a good deal done up with finery." Then the Marchioness declared that her younger son showed an unnatural indifference to the heir of the family.
Lady Brotherton has invited me, stiffly of course, to spend a few weeks during their stay. Sir Giles must be in it: I believe I am rather a favourite with the good old man.

"The matter was so serious, that he was," said Lady Sarah, "bound to lend the strength of his presence to his mother and sisters." But on the fourth morning Lady Sarah sent over a note to her brother, the Marquis. "DEAR BROTHERTON, We hope that you and your wife and little boy have arrived well, and have found things comfortable. Mamma is most anxious to see you, as of course we all are.
When he reached Brotherton he went at once to the deanery and was very glad to find his wife without her father. He did not as yet wish to renew his friendly relations with the Dean, although he had refused to pledge himself to a quarrel.
Mary Lovelace was born in a country parsonage; but at the age of fourteen, when her life was in truth beginning, was transferred by her father to the deanery of Brotherton. Dean Lovelace had been a fortunate man in life.
I have sent a special courier to find out the truth. If Ned is wounded, I have arranged to have him sent home immediately." "I wait for the courier come back, for it no is right I hurt the baby si I can help. But si he is wound so bad he no can come, then I go to him. It no is use for you to talk at all, señor, I go." Brotherton looked at her in wonderment. Whence had the butterfly gone?
Of late the Dean of Brotherton had become very intimate at Manor Cross. For some years the ladies had been a little afraid of him, as they were by no means given to free opinions. But he made his way. They were decidedly high; the bishop was notoriously low; and thus, in a mild manner, without malignity on either side, Manor Cross and the Palace fell out.
