Born the same time they were, and a grand lady, who was lodging at Essec Powell's at the time, took the sister away with her, and brought her up as her own daughter, and we have never heard of her since. 'But I will find her, Nance, she said. 'I will find her! I know I will!" "But have you never heard from her?" "Well, indeed, there was a letter," said Nance, "came soon after she left. Dr.
Why, that must be Essec!" and this discovery was followed by a burst of rumbling laughter, which set Valmai more at her ease. "But never mind who he is, here you are, and here you shall be happy. Ay'll take your parts, may dears. Ay'll see that nothing comes between you any more." "And you will keep our secret, uncle, until Cardo comes back?" "Of course, child.
Well, everybody see very soon what wass the matter with her, and at last somebody told Essec Powell. It was just the same time Captain Powell died, and when Essec Powell cum home from the funeral and find out his brother leave all his money to Valmai he go to chapel and somebody tell him about Valmai " "What about Valmai?" said Cardo.
In the twilight of an afternoon he and Madlen sat down, gazing about, and speaking scantily; and the same thought was with each of them, and this was the thought: "A tearful prayer will remove the Big Man from His judgment, but nothing will remove Essec from his purpose." "Mam fach," said Joseph, "how will things be with you?" "Sorrow not, soul nice," Madlen entreated her son.
I shall have no hesitation in doing so when I return this time next year." "But, Cardo, dear old Uncle John is quite a different sort of man to my Uncle Essec or to your father. I know he would never, never divulge our secret; he is kindness itself, and would, I know, feel for us. And it would be such a comfort to me to know that we had been open and above-board where it was possible to be so.
"Well, machgen i, you will not believe! the boldness of those 'Methots' is something beyond! And the impidence of Essec Powell! What do you think, Caradoc? he is praying for your father out loud, mind you! in the prayer-meeting every Wednesday evening!
Well, you know the sheep are grazing in the churchyard this week, and that 'mwnki' is watching them there. Well he seated himself yesterday on a tombstone when we were in church, and whit, whit, whitted 'Men of Harlech' on his flute! and the Vicare praying so beautiful all the time, too! praying against the wiles of the devil and of Essec Powell!" "Essec Powell! What has he been doing?"
And as he turned his carriage round, he muttered to himself, with a shake of his head, "I heard some odd story about him and that purty young niece of Essec Powell's the preacher." Arrived at Brynderyn, Cardo found his father and uncle and aunt seated round a blazing fire in the old parlour, which had not looked so cheerful for years.
"I will wag my tongue craftily and slowly," Madlen vowed as she crossed her brother-in-law's threshold. "I Shire Pembroke land is cheap," she said darkly. "Look you for a farm there," said Essec. "Pelted with offers am I for Penlan. Ninety I shall have. Poverty makes me sell very soon." "As he says." "Pretty tight is Joseph not to buy her. No care has he for his mam."
"You think that?" said Essec Powell; "150 pounds a year you think they would give me that?" "I am sure they would; in fact, I can give you my word for it." "Well, indeed," he said, laying his book upside down carefully on the table, "that will make me a happy man.
