She arose to depart, first sending a message of thanks to Mr. Raunham, who was out of doors gardening. He stuck his spade into the ground, and accompanied her to the gate. 'Can I help you in anything, Cytherea? he said, using her Christian name by an intuition that unpleasant memories might be revived if he called her Miss Graye after wishing her good-bye as Mrs. Manston at the wedding.

In the long and intricately inwrought chain of circumstance which renders worthy of record some experiences of Cytherea Graye, Edward Springrove, and others, the first event directly influencing the issue was a Christmas visit.

Whether you choose to have me, or whether you don't, I love you too devotedly to be anything but kind to your brother.... Miss Graye, Cytherea, I will do anything, he continued earnestly, 'to give you pleasure indeed I will.

Graye, the first thing.... I was going to say that if you have really done tea, I will take you upstairs, and show you through the wardrobes Miss Aldclyffe's things are not laid out for to-night yet.

'You'll excuse me, Mrs. Graye, she said, 'but 'tis the old gentleman's birthday, and they always have a lot of people to dinner on that day, though he's getting up in years now. Morris then proceeded to give in fragmentary speeches an outline of the constitution and government of the estate. 'Now, are you sure you have quite done tea? Not a bit or drop more?

However, thinking he would send the fragments, such as they were, to Graye, in order to satisfy him that he had done his best so far, he scribbled a line, and put all except the silk and cotton into an envelope. Looking at his watch, he found it was then twenty minutes to seven; by affixing an extra stamp he would be enabled to despatch them by that evening's post.

Graye took a seat in the nave, on the north side, close behind a pillar dividing it from the north aisle, which was completely allotted to Miss Aldclyffe, her farmers, and her retainers, Manston's pew being in the midst of them.

The rector from one, Springrove from the other, came striding across the barton. Edward was nearest, and spoke first. He said in a low voice: 'Your sister is not legally married! His first wife is still living! How it comes out I don't know! 'O, here you are at last, Mr. Graye, thank Heaven! said the rector breathlessly.

Your young miss, and that one, had crossed one another's path in regard to young Master Springrove; and I expect that when Addy Hinton found Miss Graye wasn't caren to have en, she thought she'd be beforehand with her old enemy in marrying somebody else too. That's maids' logic all over, and maids' malice likewise.

Graye had been requested by the architect to survey a plot of land nearly twenty miles off, which, with the journey to and fro, would occupy him the whole day, and prevent his returning till late in the evening. Cytherea made a companion of her landlady to the extent of sharing meals and sitting with her during the morning of her brother's absence.
