"She cannot think so, seriously, or if she does, she ought to be ashamed. "Hoighty, toighty, how we are coming the parson to-night." "Pshaw," exclaimed Everard impatiently. "I think she is justly angry and aggrieved. "Your mother" continued Lady Ashton "relied upon your honorable feelings, and good sense, but you have abused her confidence in a most cruel manner."
"Charles Colonel Brereton!" the girl exclaimed. "Charles!" exclaimed Mrs. Meredith, coming to the door. "Hoighty toighty, if it is n't!" "I am very sorry that we are compelled to impress food, Mrs. Meredith," said the aide; "but as it is useless to resist I trust you will not make the necessity needlessly unpleasant." "Ye 're a pack of ruffians and thieves!" cried the squire. "Nay, Mr.
I have locked it up; and I have carefully kept the terrible story of your connection with the prisoner a secret from all of them. Mr. Benjamin evidently has his suspicions. But the doctor has no idea, and Miss Hoighty has no idea, of the true cause of your fainting fit.
