Not only was he Master of Trinity College, Cambridge, Regius Professor of Divinity, Rector of Haddington, Rector of Wilburn, and Archdeacon of Ely, but he was immersed in numberless lawsuits, and in classical studies which would alone have sufficed to fill the whole life of an ordinary man.
"Thank you I hope you will. You've had a pleasant time, I hope? Who are to be your river party?" "Oh, just ourselves and one or two girls and men. Lord Rickmansworth is to be there a day or two, if he can. And oh, yes, Mr. Haddington, I think." "Isn't Haddington staying here?" "I don't know. I understood not. So your party will break up," Kate went on. "Of course, Claudia can't stay when I go."
"Haddington didn't like it." "Damn Haddington, and you too!" said Eugene impatiently, walking away. Bob looked after him with a chuckle, and exclaimed enigmatically to the silent air, "Six to four, t. and o." Father Stafford changes his Habits, and Mr. Haddington his Views.
Its history was curious: Brown of, Haddington, was a poor shepherd boy, and once he walked twenty miles through the night to St. Andrews to get a copy of the Greek Testament. The book-seller at first laughed at him and said: "Boy, if you can read a verse in this book, you may have it." Forthwith the lad read the verse off glibly, and was permitted to carry off the Testament in triumph.
The strain, of course, followed Haddington to Baden; it was among his most precious appurtenances; and Ayre, relying upon it, had little doubt that he could succeed in finding Kate alone and unprotected. He was not deceived. He found Kate just disposing of her draught, and an offer of his company for a stroll was accepted with tolerable graciousness.
Welsh was to leave Haddington, where the alliance was palpably unpopular, Carlyle proposed to begin married life in his mother-in-law's vacant house, saying in effect to his fiancee that as for intrusive visitors he had "nerve enough" to kick her old friends out of doors. At this point, however, her complaisance had reached its limit.
Mayberry was two miles from Haddington on Hill, it appeared. We decided to go, but before writing of our intention, Hephzy consulted the most particular member of our party. "It's no use doing anything until we ask her," she said. "She may be as down on Mayberry as she was on Leatherhead." But she was not. She had no objections to Mayberry.
However, he brought Dunbar's wife and family, and a considerable force of his retainers, safely across the border. He and Percy, together, then made a raid into the Douglas territory; and penetrated as far as Haddington, and collected much spoil from the country round.
Helped by the unconscious alliance of Haddington, who thought Miss Bernard had let him alone quite long enough, she seized her opportunity, and said in the softest voice: "Father Stafford?" Stafford turned his head, and found fixed upon him a pair of large, dark eyes, brimming over with mingled contrition and admiration. "I am so sorry but but I thought you looked so ill."
That was a good thirty years ago if it was a day. Mary Jane, who was then a little girl in short clothes, was now the main prop of the household, for she had the organ in Haddington Road. She had been through the Academy and gave a pupils' concert every year in the upper room of the Antient Concert Rooms. Many of her pupils belonged to the better-class families on the Kingstown and Dalkey line.
