Ellerton who, when an indigo-planter at Malda, opened the first Bengali school, and made the first attempt at translating the Bible into that vernacular. His young wife, early made a widow, witnessed accidentally the duel in which Warren Hastings shot Philip Francis. She was an occasional visitor at Aldeen, and took part in the pagoda services.
Rose looked up angrily into the laughing dark eyes. "I don't know what you mean." "My dear little artless Rose! Shall I put it plainer? When are you to be Lady Ellerton?" "Mr. Stanford " "My dear Rose, don't be cross. He is too old and too ugly low be it spoken for the prettiest girl in Canada!" "Meaning me?" "Meaning you." "Why don't you except Kate?"
This was John Ellerton Stocks, afterwards M.D. and a distinguished traveller and botanist in India. To him fell the first prize; the boy, to his own astonishment and the wild delight of his sister, won the second. In October, 1812, a couple of months after this success, both he and his brother James entered Charing Cross Hospital as free scholars.
I took the liberty of asking after Lord Ellerton. "He is not in town he has stayed behind for one day to attend a great meeting of his tenantry you will see the account in the papers to-morrow morning he comes to-morrow." And as she spoke her whole face and figure seemed to glow and heave, in spite of herself, with pride and affection. "And now, come with me, Mr.
"Oh, of course if there's a worse place now!" conceded Sir Roger. "I'll make up my mind when we arrive," observed Lady Deane. "Anyhow I shall rely on you, General." The General looked a little uncomfortable. "If Deane doesn't object ." "I shouldn't think of taking my wife to such places." Suddenly Dora Bellairs rushed up to them. "Have you seen Mr. Ellerton?" she cried. "Where is he?"
But even Dale, with all his frank charm of manner, has the modern youth's offhand way with women. I often wonder how women abide it. But they do, more shame to them, and suffer more than they realise by their indulgence. When next I meet Maisie Ellerton I will read her a wholesome lecture, for her soul's good, on the proper treatment a self-respecting female should apply to the modern young man.
Lord Lynedale had become Lord Ellerton, and I listened to the praises that were sung of the newly married couple for Eleanor had become Lady Ellerton, and had entered fully into all her husband's magnificent philanthropic schemes a helpmeet, if not an oracular guide.
"I wonder if he will miss part of his letter," she thought, nervously. "What would he say if I gave it to him, and told him I had read it? No! I dare not do that. I will say nothing about it, and let him fidget as much as he likes over the loss." Rose descended to the drawing-room as the last bell rang, and found herself bowing to half a dozen strangers Colonel Lord Ellerton among the rest.
I felt as if I must speak all my heart or none; and I watched her lavish kindness with a sort of sleepy, passive wonder, like a new-born babe. At last, one day, my kind nurses allowed me to speak a little. I broached to Crossthwaite the subject which filled my thoughts. "How came I here? How came you here? and Lady Ellerton? What is the meaning of it all?"
At Ellerton, on the other side of the river a little lower down, the nunnery was of the Cistercian Order; for, although very little of its history has been discovered, Leland writes of the house as 'a Priori of White clothid Nunnes. After the Battle of Bannockburn, when the Scots raided all over the North Riding of Yorkshire, they came along Swaledale in search of plunder, and we are told that Ellerton suffered from their violence.
