Randal pulled his hat still lower down over his brows, and did not interrupt him till they passed the Casino, when, struck by the classic air of the place, and catching a scent from the orange-trees, the boy asked abruptly, "Whose house is that?" "Oh, it belongs to Squire Hazeldean, but it is let or lent to a foreign mounseer. They say he is quite the gentleman, but uncommonly poor."
"Indeed, Sir, I dare say; but," said Lenny, primly, "I never as yet kept company with the little girls." "Quite right, Lenny; be equally discreet all your life. Mrs. Dale is very intimate with Miss Hazeldean, more than with the squire's lady. Why is that, think you?" "Well, sir," said Leonard, shrewdly, "Mrs.
Louis nodded, and she shuffled off, appearing a few moments later with an old man who had evidently been waiting about for the chance of earning a few shillings. "It isn't a bit like Lochinvar," whispered Marcella, "or Jock of Hazeldean." "Poor old lady," he whispered, suddenly gentle. The two old people sat down on the form beside Louis, who edged a little closer to Marcella.
I need not say that on such an occasion I cannot spare myself. Mr. Egerton is ill too. All the fatigue of the canvass devolves on me.

I meant to cross over to Hazeldean immediately after the election. How can I leave the place till then?" "If you do, your election is lost. But why not write to the squire?"
I wish we could make it up with him and Hazeldean." "Ah, I wish we could!" SIR JOHN. "And some chance of it now; for the time is coming when all true men of the old school must stick together." RANDAL. "Wisely, admirably said, my dear Sir John. But, pardon me, I must pay my respects to the ambassador."
