The vicar led the way, and they all followed him, into the vestry. There was a general murmur all round them of congratulation and approval. 'Heartiest congratulations, Crosse! said Hale.

Though I am grieved that she is to be your son's Egeria and not mine yet I offer you and Sir Robin my heartiest congratulations. I may add that I also congratulate the party to which your son belongs." Lady Drummond had rubbed her eyes over this letter.
