I am sure little Marianne ought to be one of my bridesmaids. Charlotte would take care of her, and it would be very nice to have her. But no kind influence deign they shower, Till pride be quelled and love be free. Kilcoran was about twenty miles from Cork, and Captain Morville was engaged to go and spend a day or two there.
Fielder, the tutor, wrote Charlotte, was very nearly equal to Eveleen's description of him, but very particularly agreeable, in fact, the only man who had any conversation, whom she had seen since she had been at Kilcoran. 'Imagine, said Charles, 'the impertinent little puss setting up for intellectual conversation, forsooth! 'That's what comes of living with good company, said Mary.
In the meantime, Charles and Amabel saw no immediate prospect of their party returning from Ireland, and thought it best to remain at Redclyffe, since Philip had so much to do there; and besides, events were occurring at Kilcoran which would have prevented his visit, even without his illness.
'Then you do not mean to go? said Lady Kilcoran. 'I do not, she continued, 'for my health is never equal to so much excitement, and it would only be giving poor Mrs. Edmonstone additional trouble to have to attend to me. 'So you really mean to stay away? said Eveleen. 'I have not entirely decided. 'At any rate you must go and tell old Aunt Mabel all about them, said Eveleen.
So the self-debate lasted all the way to Kilcoran and he only had two comforts one, that he had sent the follower who was always amenable to good advice, safe out of the way of Lady Eveleen, to spend his leave of absence at Thorndale the other, that Maurice de Courcy was, as yet, ignorant of the Hollywell news, and did not torment him by talking about it.
Lady Thorndale afterwards proceeded to inquiries about the De Courcy family, especially Lady Eveleen; and Charles, enlightened by Charlotte, took delight in giving a brilliant description of his cousin's charms, for which he was rewarded by very plain intimations of the purpose for which her son James was gone to Kilcoran.
'Yes' said Amabel, 'that is the thing that seems to have made him so unhappy about it. I am sure I hope it is not true, she added, considering, 'for, Charlie, you must know that Guy had an impression against him. 'Had he? said Charles, anxiously. 'It was only an impression, nothing he could accuse him of, or mention to Lord Kilcoran.
A special invitation was sent to Bustle; indeed, Charles said Charlotte could not have gone without his permission, for he reigned like a tyrant over her, evidently believing her created for no purpose but to wait on him, and take him to walk. Laura was a great favourite at the cottage of Kilcoran, and felt she ought to offer to go.
You know Philip is exceedingly worried about Mr. Fielder. Lord Kilcoran has been writing to ask him to find him a situation. 'That is an article they will be seeking all the rest of their lives, said Charles. 'A man is done for when he begins to look for a situation!
They shuffled, and tried to explain it away, but Charlotte was too acute for them, or rather, she held steadily to "be that as it may, Lord Kilcoran ought to know it." They tried to frighten her with the horrors of betraying secrets, but she said none had been confided to her, and mamma would judge.
