Spencer was cured of the vagrant habits of going to church at Abbotstoke or Fordholm, that had greatly concerned his friend. Dr. May, who could never get any answer from him except that he was not a Town Councillor, and, as to example, it was no way to set that to sleep through the sermon. To say that Dr.
We have been walking over the meadows to Fordholm." No wonder Dr. May was hot and tired. "But is he not coming?" asked Ethel. "Yes, poor fellow; but hush, stop, say nothing to the others. I must not have her agitated till she has had her dinner in peace, and the house is quiet. You know she cannot run away to her room as you would."
The order and obedience that Ethel could not gain in six months, seemed impressed in six days by Cherry; the neat work made her popular with the mothers, her firm gentleness won the hearts of the children, and the kitchen was filled not only with boys and girls from the quarry, but with some little ones from outlying cottages of Fordholm and Abbotstoke, and there was even a smart little farmer, who had been unbearable at home.
"To Vienna!" was the general and dolorous outcry, and Gertrude laid hold of him and said he should not go. "I am coming back," he said, "if you will have me. The college holds a court at Fordholm on the 3rd, and on the last of this month, I hope to return." "College! Court! What are you going to do at Vienna? Where have you left your senses?" asked Dr. May. "I find Sir Henry Walkinghame is there.
Gould, and to be at Abbotstoke Grange by twelve; then I thought of going to Fordholm, and getting Miss Cleveland to give us some luncheon there are some poor people on the way to look at; and that girl on Far-view Hill; and there's another place to call in at coming home.
She says she always goes to church at Fordholm because it is nearer, and she is quite willing to let us have the room. So we settled it, and next Friday we are to begin. Papa has given us two guineas, and that will pay for, let me see, a hundred and twenty-six times, and Mr. Wilmot is going to give us some books, and Ritchie will print some alphabets.
I have been on an exploring expedition to Drydale, found out his man of business, and where he is to be written to. The college holds a court at Fordholm, and I hope to have our business settled." Ethel was too much confounded to speak. Her father was exclaiming on the shortness of the time. "Plenty of time," said Dr.
He finally contrived to collect every one he wanted at Fordholm, the case was laid before the College the College was propitious, and by four o'clock in the evening, Dr. Spencer laid before Ethel the promise of the piece of land. Mary's joy was unbounded, and Ethel blushed, and tried to thank.
That she was a capital dame, and made the children very good, was allowed; but now and then, when mortified by hearing what was done at Stoneborough, Fordholm, or Abbotstoke, Ethel would make vigorous efforts, which resulted only in her coming home fuming at Cherry's "outrageous dullness."
I shall like to have another look at that little Madonna of his it is the sort of picture that does one good to carry away in one's eye. Whay! Stop. There's an old woman in here. It is too late for Fordholm, but these cases won't wait." He went into the cottage, and soon returned, saying, "Fine new blankets, and a great kettle of soup, and such praises of the ladies at the Grange!"
