Interior is a good old house, with large oak staircases, family pictures, etc. We were received by Captain Wemyss a gallant sea-captain, who could talk against a north-wester, by his wife Lady Emma, and her sister Lady Isabella beautiful women of the house of Errol, and vindicating its title to the handsome Hays.
In the hall, you know." Very reluctantly Dot submitted. She had not the faintest inkling of his intentions or her docility would have vanished on the instant. As it was, fortified by Anne's presence, she yielded to his insistence. The hall was full of people to whom Mrs. Errol was dispensing tea, assisted by Bertie, who had emerged from his den for the purpose.
When Dimsdale returned he was sunk in the chair asleep. "Hullo, Lucas! Can I come in?" Nap Errol stood outside his brother's door, an impatient frown on his face, his hand already fidgeting at the handle. "Come in, old chap," drawled back a kindly voice. He entered with an abruptness that seemed to denote agitation. The room was large and brilliantly lighted.
Many of the great nobles hostile to the Comyn faction also joined him; among these were the Earls of Athole, Lennox, Errol, and Menteith; Christopher Seaton, Sir Simon Fraser, David Inchmartin, Hugh de la Haye, Walter de Somerville, Robert Boyd, Robert Fleming, David Barclay, Alexander Fraser, Sir Thomas Randolph, and Sir Neil Campbell.
She was still in her easy-chair before the fire, which burned brightly as ever, while on the other side of the hearth, propped upright upon cushions and watching her with those steady blue eyes, whose kindness never varied, was Lucas Errol. He spoke to her at once, very softly and gently, as if she had been a child. "I'm real pleased you've had a sleep. You needed it. Don't look so startled.
"Then she was not a patient?" pursued Kennedy, studiously avoiding enlightening Karatoff on the visit. "Rather a friend," he replied, quickly. "It was she who introduced Mr. Errol." "They are quite intimate, I believe," put in Kennedy at a chance. "Really, I knew very little about it," Karatoff avoided. "Did she introduce Mr. Marchant?"

"Hooray, Billy Williams! Hooray, Ceddie! Hooray, Billy! Hooray! 'Ray! 'Ray!" "I really believe he is going to win," said Mr. Havisham.
She continued to smile despite the sadness of her face. "Absolutely. I am so accustomed to defeat that I am getting callous." "You seem to have great confidence in my chivalry," he said, looking full at her. "I have every confidence, Mr. Errol," she answered gravely. "I think that you and your brother are the most chivalrous men I know." His laugh had a ring of harshness.
In fact, your mother wanted to come with me, but I dissuaded her." "Then I conclude it is useless for me to offer myself as an escort?" said Lucas. "Yes, quite useless," she smiled, "though I am grateful to you all the same. Good-bye, Mr. Errol!" "Good-bye!" he said.
"I've been talking to Bridget." Mr. Havisham looked down at him a moment. He felt a little awkward and undecided. As Cedric's mother had said, he was a very little boy. "The Earl of Dorincourt " he began, and then he glanced involuntarily at Mrs. Errol. Little Lord Fauntleroy's mother suddenly kneeled down by him and put both her tender arms around his childish body.
