"Because because to-day is all my own," she said softly, "and to-morrow isn't. Christopher, I did not mean to tell anyone to-day, but I must tell you, I am going to marry Geoffry," she flushed rosy red, but he did not see it "it was last night he wanted to see Nevil at once, but I wouldn't let him. I wanted this day to myself. It was nice of you to come and make it complete."
I fancy that Miss Geoffry was a governess in some family in London the envelopes are missing, you see, so there is no evidence as to where she was living, except that it was in London and that she left her employment to marry this Percival Nowell. You'd like to read the letters yourself, I daresay, Gilbert. Put them in your pocket, and look them over at your leisure when you get home.
Geoffry Daymond's companion meanwhile was paying his respects to Pauline and the Colonel, who were old acquaintances. "May, you have never met Mr. Kenwick, I think," said Pauline. "Oh, yes, I have," May declared; "but it was ages ago and he never would take any notice of me." "Do let me make up for it now," Kenwick begged, rapidly setting his palette, by way of elucidating his request.
Once Geoffry had appealed to his father to help him to change his benefice, but had experienced a harsh refusal. This was after Elizabeth had suffered from an attack of rheumatism and ague, when she longed to escape from the lovely, damp screens of the Forest to fresh Wold breezes. She died, and Geoffry took another wife. Then he died of what was called in the district marsh-fever. Mr.

"How can he be the heir of Lovel?"
Margaret, the Countess of Salisbury, a daughter of the Duke of Clarence by the heiress of the Earl of Warwick, and a niece of Edward the Fourth, had married Sir Richard Pole, and became mother of Lord Montacute as of Sir Geoffry and Reginald Pole. The temper of her house might be guessed from the conduct of the younger of the three brothers.
After some five years of unremunerative toil he returned to England, poor in pocket, but possessing sufficient knowledge of life to justify his adoption of a literary career. His first attempt, and perhaps his most successful, was "The Recollections of Geoffry Hamlyn," published in 1859, which was based largely on his own experiences in Australia.
Chester was all but perishing in the arms of her son. "Geoffry! Geoffry! you needn't be ferocious!" They took seats facing each other, low seats that touched; but when they joined hands a second time he dropped to his knees, asking many questions already answered in her regular and frequent letters. News is so different by word of mouth when the mouth's the sweetest, sacredest ever kissed.
"Patricia mistook you for a rabbit, I think," returned Christopher grimly and added to her in a low voice, "Do you know you struck him, Patricia?" She gave a shiver and put her hands to her face. Even then he did not leave go of her wrists. "A happy fluke you didn't aim so well as I did," called Geoffry, unsteadily coming towards them. "Don't come," said Christopher sharply. "Wait a moment.
