But you see she isn't known yet, and she's in such very good form" And Lord Deepmere's conclusion was lost in the attesting glance which he again directed toward the young lady. Newman turned away; he was having more of her than he relished. M. Nioche had stepped aside on his daughter's approach, and he stood there, within a very small compass, looking down hard at the ground.
"Come; what's the mystery?" Newman demanded. "Clear it up. I don't like mysteries." "We must have some things we don't like, and go without some we do," said the ruddy young nobleman, laughing still. "It's to Lord Deepmere's credit, but it is not to every one's," said Madam de Cintre. "So I shall say nothing about it.
The marquise then began a series of inquiries about the duke and the cardinal, the old countess and Lady Barbara, after listening to which, and to Lord Deepmere's somewhat irreverent responses, for a quarter of an hour, Newman rose to take his leave. The marquis went with him three steps into the hall. "Is he Irish?" asked Newman, nodding in the direction of the visitor.
These two remarks might have constituted an impertinence; but a glance at Lord Deepmere's face would have satisfied you, as it apparently satisfied Madame de Cintre, that they constituted only a naivete. When his companions were seated, Newman, who was out of the conversation, occupied himself with observing the newcomer. Observation, however, as regards Lord Deepmere's person; had no great range.
"His mother was the daughter of Lord Finucane," said the marquis; "he has great Irish estates. Lady Bridget, in the complete absence of male heirs, either direct or collateral a most extraordinary circumstance came in for everything. But Lord Deepmere's title is English and his English property is immense. He is a charming young man."
