Had Mary been a mere high-tempered and high-spirited girl, easily harmed in health by insults to herself and her creed, she might now have turned for support to Huntly, Cassilis, Montrose, and the other Earls who were Catholic or "unpersuaded."
I believe if he had not died otherwise, he must have fallen a victim to consumption in the course of but a very few weeks. He held out to me a hand, long, thin, and disagreeably hairy. "Come in, come in, Mr. Cassilis," said he. "Another protector ahem! another protector. Always welcome as a friend of my daughter's, Mr. Cassilis. How they have rallied about me, my daughter's friends!
Northmour showed me the way, and, when he had reached the landing, knocked at the door of what used to be called MY UNCLE'S BEDROOM, as the founder of the pavilion had designed it especially for himself. "Come in, Northmour; come in, dear Mr. Cassilis," said a voice from within. Pushing open the door, Northmour admitted me before him into the apartment.
'They told me you had the gout, Cassilis? he said to Mr. Melton's companion. 'So I had; but I have found out a fellow who cures the gout instanter. Tom Needham sent him to me. A German fellow. Pumicestone pills; sort of a charm, I believe, and all that kind of thing: they say it rubs the gout out of you. I sent him to Luxborough, who was very bad; cured him directly. Luxborough swears by him.
One goes his shady way, he keeps his look directed towards the rising moon, and thus he almost runs into one who also stands amid the shadows and whose gaze is likewise fixed upon the moon. "Ah? Mr. Bellew!" exclaims a drawling voice, and Squire Cassilis turns to regard him with his usual supercilious smile.
Cassilis stared, his hand began to stroke and caress his small, black moustache, and he viewed Bellew from his dusty boots up to the crown of his dusty hat, and down again, with supercilious eyes. "Uncle?" he repeated incredulously. "Porges," nodded Bellew. "I wasn't aware," began Mr. Cassilis, "that er George was so very fortunate "
Cassilis had read her letter, that he might, even then, be on his way to Dapplemere. She even fancied, once or twice, that she could hear the gallop of his horse's hoofs. And, when he came, he would want to kiss her! "Why do you shiver so, Auntie Anthea, are you cold?" "No, dear." "Well, then, why are you so quiet to me, I've asked you a question three times." "Have you dear?
I wish you a good-night, Mr. Cassilis." And with that he was gone among the thicket.
'No foundation, said Mr. Ormsby, shaking his head. 'They are not going to separate, I believe, said Mr. Melton; 'but I rather think there was a foundation for the rumour. Mr. Ormsby still shook his head. 'Well, continued Mr. Melton, 'all I know is, that it was looked upon last winter at Paris as a settled thing. 'There was some story about some Hungarian, said Mr. Cassilis.
"I am no precisian, if you come to that; I always hated a precisian; but I never lost hold of something better through it all. I have been a bad boy, Mr. Cassilis; I do not seek to deny that; but it was after my wife's death, and you know, with a widower, it's a different thing: sinful I won't say no; but there is a gradation, we shall hope.
