He longed to be writing a letter to the bishop. He was proud of his letters. Pen and paper were at hand, and he did write. I think it right to represent to your lordship the conduct, I believe I may be justified in saying the misconduct, of the Reverend Fenwick, the vicar of Bullhampton.
He did not speak again, but passed on quickly, thinking what he might best do. The man whom he had seen and recognised had latterly been talked of as a discredit to his family, and anything but an honour to the usually respectable inhabitants of Bullhampton.
It was told of a farmer of Bullhampton, in old days, that he asked what had become of Charles I., when told that Charles II. had been restored. Cromwell had come and gone, and had not disturbed him at Bullhampton.
But so great was the anger and dismay and general perturbation of the Marquis at the time, that he could not stop to ask any question. St. George must, of course, know what had happened, and it was quite as well that he should be told at once. "That bit of ground they've built the chapel on at Bullhampton, turns out to be glebe," said the Marquis. Lord St. George whistled. "Of course, Mr.

If he couldn't be allowed to do as much as that for the Vicar of the parish, Bullhampton wouldn't be, in Mr. Grimes's opinion, any place for anybody to live in. Mr. Puddleham argued the matter out, but he argued in vain. Mr.
"The suspicion is very strong; but I cannot say that I have an opinion one way or the other." There was no sermon in Bullhampton Church on that Sunday afternoon.
But things have been wrong, and I could not put them right." On the next morning they packed her into the little four-wheeled phaeton, and so she left Bullhampton. "I believe her to be as good a girl as ever lived," said the Vicar; "but all the same, I wish with all my heart that she had never come to Bullhampton."
When she went out herself she never took one of the common street flies, but paid eighteen pence extra to get a brougham from the Dragon. And when Mary Lowther, who had only fifty pounds a year of her own, with which she clothed herself and provided herself with pocket-money, was going to Bullhampton, Miss Marrable actually proposed to her to take one of the maids with her.
