A little further on, he said: 'Poor soul! He confessed to himself, that latterly he had, he knew not why, been impatient with her, rancorous in thought, as never before. He had hitherto aimed at a picturesque tolerance of her vindictiveness; under suffering, both at Craye and Creckholt; and he had been really forgiving. He accused her of dragging him down to humanity's lowest.

By the way, Fredi has little Mab Mountney from Creckholt staying with her. You said of little Mabsy "Here she comes into the room all pink and white, like a daisy." She's the daisy still; reminds us of our girl at that age. So, then, we come to another dead block! 'Well, no; it's a chemist's shop, if that helps us on, said Fenellan, settling to a new posture in his chair.

The clasping and the worshipping were independent of personal ardours: quaintly mixed with semi-paternal recollections of the little 'blue butterfly' of the days at Craye. Farm and Creckholt; and he had heard of Dudley Sowerby's pretensions to; her hand. Nesta's youthfulness cast double age on him from the child's past.

No, we don't repeat the error of Crayc Farm and Creckholt. And here we have stout friends. Not to speak of Beaver Urmsing: a picture of Old Christmas England! You took to him? must have taken to Beaver Urmsing! The Marigolds! And Sir Rodwell and Lady Blachington are altogether above the mark of Sir Humphrey and Lady Pottil, and those half and half Mountneys.

We live there independently, and we can we have quarters there for our friends. Our one neighbour is London there! And at Lakelands we are able to entertain London and wife; our friends, in short; with some, what we have to call, satellites. You inspect the house and grounds to-morrow sure to be fair. Put aside all but the pleasant recollections of Craye and Creckholt.

'And next day, Nataly draws five thousand pounds for the first sketch of the furniture. 'There is the Creckholt... she had a difficulty in saying. 'Part of it may do. Lakelands requires but you will see to-morrow. After a close shutting of her eyes, she rejoined: 'It is not a cottage? 'Well, dear, no: when the Slave of the Lamp takes to building, he does not run up cottages.

And it 's a castle with a drawbridge: no exchangeing of visits, as we did at Craye Farm and at Creckholt; we are there for country air; we don't court neighbours at all perhaps the elect; it will depend on Nataly's wishes. We can accommodate our Concert-set, and about thirty or forty more, for as long as they like. You see, that was my intention to be independent of neighbouring society.

The look was interpreted by Nesta as belonging to the social annoyances dating, in her calendar, from Creckholt, apprehensively dreaded at Lakelands. She hinted asking, and her mother nodded; not untruthfully; but she put on a briskness after the nod; and a doubt was driven into Nesta's bosom. Her dear Skepsey was coming down to her for a holiday, she was glad to hear.

'Consider: these neighbours we come among; they may have heard . . . 'Act on the assumption. 'You forget the principal character. Victor promises; he may have learnt a lesson at Creckholt. But look at this house he has built. How can I any woman contain him! He must have society. 'Paraitre! 'He must be in the front. He has talked of Parliament.

Good quality wood, no doubt, but dry, varnished for conventional uses. Poor dear Fredi would have to crown it like the May-day posy of the urchins of Craye Farm and Creckholt!
