Henley, I own the affair of the anonymous letter was a very improper and strange proceeding. Your aunt Wenbourne and Lord Fitz-Allen indeed seem to doubt it; but, according to the account which you and Mr. Henley give, I think they have no foundation for their doubts. The behaviour of Mr. Clifton, without the letter, would have been quite sufficient to have fixed my determination. What behaviour?
It was with difficulty I repressed feelings that were struggling into indignation I addressed myself to Mr. Clifton. Then, sir, you coolly and deliberately deny all knowledge of the letter in question? I have told you, madam, that I will suffer Lord Fitz-Allen, yourself, any person to pass sentence, after having examined witnesses. Answer me in an open direct manner, Mr.
There is therefore no fear of opposition from Sir Arthur. He has another advantage with the family. My uncle, Lord Fitz-Allen, is at present in Paris, on his return from Switzerland, and Clifton has been introduced to him by his kinsman, Lord Evelyn, who is making a short excursion to the south of France.
I have been very industrious with uncle Fitz-Allen and aunt Wenbourne; and have been equally careful to titilate the vanity of the coxcomb Edward, who is highly flattered with the attention I have paid him, and will I am certain become my warm partisan.
I assure you, Lord Fitz-Allen, I assure you, Sir Arthur, and you, madam, and all, upon my honour I am incapable of what is attributed to me. Do not appeal to my uncle and aunt, Mr. Clifton, but turn this way. Let your eyes be fixed here.
These are joys that swell and enlarge even his narrow heart, into something that endeavours to mimic urbanity. Whenever Sir Arthur mentions Lord Fitz-Allen, or the family consent, honest Aby in a moment conjures up Wenbourne-Hill, a hermitage, and a wilderness; and for the first day, if he found that dose not strong enough to produce its effect, foreclosures were added to the mixture.
