The old curate was very old, and nothing seemed alive but the fiddles in the gallery indeed, after the "Penny Magazine" had made us acquainted with the Nibelung, Jaquey took to calling Sisson, Folker the mighty fiddler, so determined were his strains.
Baby was asleep, and I went down; but when I heard the plan it was cross to be so unsympathizing, but I did feel hurt and angry at their forgetting him; and I said, "I shall never leave Alured." "Ursula! you could not stay by yourself," said Jaquey.
It passed his powers to suppose she could expose her daughter's heart to such a wreck. So he held up, cheerful and hopeful, thinking what a treasure of constancy he had! And when they had built their castle in New Zealand, they sent up Jaquey to call me to share it with them.
To be farmers' sisters where we had been the Earl's daughters well, I had much rather then that it had been somewhere else; but I saw it was best for Baby and still more so for Fulk, and clear little Jaquey held fast to me and to him, and so it was settled! Our friends and relatives had much rather we had all emigrated.
However, one morning in the next week, in walked Fulk into the keeping-room, and the clergyman with him, and found Jaquey and me standing at the long table under the window, peeling and cutting up apples for apple-cheese. "Mr. Cradock, my sister," he said, just in the old tone when he brought a friend into our St.
Cradock she was, we heard; and not only Miss Prior, but Fulk, wanted us to call on her. "What's the use?" said I. "Farmers' families are not on visiting terms with the ladies of the parsonage." Poor Jaquey uttered an "Oh dear!" but she and Fulk knew I was past moving in that mood.
Sunday was the hardest day of all to Fulk, for this was the only one on which he could not be busy enough to tire himself out. We were a mile from church, and when we got to the worm-eaten farm pew there was a smell, as Jaquey said, as if generations of farmers had been eating cheese there, and generations of mice eating after them; and she always longed to shut up a cat there.
