Finn had already almost made up her mind that, should Lady Cantrip occupy the place, she would tell her ladyship all that had passed between herself and the Duchess on the subject. Of what hopes she might have, or what fears, about her girl, the Duchess had said no word to her husband.
"Lord Cantrip was there," said Silverbridge; "and I saw Sir Timothy Beeswax." "If the presence of Sir Timothy be an allurement to you, I pity you indeed. I have nothing further to say about it. You have ruined your brother." He had been driven to further anger by this reference to one man whom he respected, and to another whom he despised. "Don't say that, sir." "What am I to say?"
"I think I shall go up to town to-morrow," said the Duke to his daughter. "For long?" "I shall be gone only one night. It is on your behalf that I am going." "On my behalf, papa?" "I have been writing to Lady Cantrip." "Not about Mr. Tregear?" "No; not about Mr. Tregear," said the father with a mixture of anger and solemnity in his tone. "It is my desire to regard Mr.
"You bear in mind, Master Roger, that every leevin' thing ye see, frae baukie-bird tae blackfish, kens some bit cantrip he doesna tell, and ye'll be a Solomon if ye live." David was eating his bread and cheese on the lee side of the wall when Eleanor came by with a gray lump of clay in her hands. "See what Gwillym has made," she said. David stopped with the cheese half way to his mouth.
"The milk is spilt; is it not?" "But these terrible rendings asunder never last very long," said Lord Cantrip, "unless a man changes his opinions altogether. How many quarrels and how many reconciliations we have lived to see! I remember when Gresham went out of office, because he could not sit in the same room with Mr. Mildmay, and yet they became the fastest of political friends.
Tregear, but she fancied that she had heard his name, and that the name had been connected with a character different from that which the Duke had given him. Lady Cantrip, who at this time was a young-looking woman, not much above forty, had two daughters, both of whom were married.
Monk himself, which Mr. Gresham was determined to oppose. If all this came to pass and there should be a close division, Phineas felt that his fate would be sealed. When he again spoke to Lord Cantrip on the subject, the Secretary of State shrugged his shoulders and shook his head. "I can only advise you," said Lord Cantrip, "to forget all that took place in Ireland.
"I don't think he ever liked Rattler." "What of that? Don't I have to smile upon men whom I hate like poison; and women too, which is worse? Do you think that I love old Lady Ramsden, or Mrs. MacPherson? He used to be so fond of Lord Cantrip." "I think he likes Lord Cantrip," said the Duke. "He asked his lordship to do something, and Lord Cantrip declined." "I know all about that," said the Duke.
He was quite alive to the honour of being noticed by the Duke of Omnium, and alive also to the flattering courtesy shown to him by Lady Cantrip. But justice would not be done him unless it were acknowledged that he had as yet flattered himself with no hopes in regard to Lady Mary Palliser.
Lady Cantrip could not but smile when she remembered the immense wealth of the man who was speaking to her; and the Duke saw the smile and understood it. "You will understand what I mean, Lady Cantrip. If this young man were in other respects suitable, of course I could find an income for them. But he is nothing; just an idle seeker for pleasure without the means of obtaining it."
