Miss Boyle is a pretty young woman, rather quiet for an Irish lass. July 16. We visited at Lessudden yesterday, and took Mrs. Latouche thither. To-day, as they had left us, we went alone to Major John's house of Ravenswood and engaged a large party of cousins to dine to-morrow.
"Oh, no! I never swear! But I don't mind affirming," I said playfully, hoping to give a less serious turn to the conversation. To my horror Miss Latouche wrung her hands with the same expression of hopeless suffering that I had seen once before. "It is too cruel," she moaned, "after all this dreary waiting and watching, to be met like this! Oh, my Beloved! I cannot bear it any longer!
Ross was generally attended by either "Dick" Turner, Adjutant Latouche, or Sergeant George Stansil, of the 18th Georgia, with a small guard to keep the prisoners in four closed ranks during the count. To conceal the absence of the five men who were daily at work at the tunnel, their comrades of the party off digging duty resorted, under Rose's supervision, to a device of "repeating."
But there was a person standing alone near the mantelshelf, and looking round the room with a small gentle smile which seemed at odds, somehow, with her isolation. I looked at her a moment, and then said, "I should like to show them to that young lady." "Oh, yes," said Mrs. Latouche, "she is just the person. She doesn't care for flirting; I will speak to her."
No good comes from relatives working together. Look at the Latouche farm where your cousin makes his mess. My father is well enough where he is." "But you'd like to see him oftener I was only thinking of that," said Jean Jacques in a mollifying voice. It was the kind of thing in which he showed at once the weakness and the kindness of his nature.
But I preferred running the risk of rheumatic fever to contradicting Miss Latouche in her present mood. Only I hoped the explanation would be exceedingly brief. "You pretend that you never saw me before the other evening?" she began, feverishly. "Certainly!" I answered, with great astonishment. "It was undoubtedly our first meeting. I am sure " "Can you swear it?" she interrupted, eagerly.
"I should think she had had enough of strange faces!" cried the minister's wife. "I mean, to see a visitor," said Mrs. Latouche, amending her phrase. "I should think she had had enough of visitors!" her companion rejoined. "But you don't mean to stay ten years," she added, glancing at me. "Has she a visitor of that sort?" I inquired, perplexed. "You will see the sort!" said the minister's wife.
When hostilities again broke out, he commanded in the West Indies, and, leaving his station, escaped your cruisers, and was appointed first to the chief command of the Rochefort, and afterwards the Toulon fleet, on the death of Admiral Latouche. Notwithstanding the gasconade of his report of his negative victory over Admiral Calder, Villeneuve is not a Gascon by birth, but only, by sentiment.
My clerk Buchanan came here, and assists me to finish the Demonology Letters, and be d d to them. But it is done to their hand. Two ladies, Mrs. Latouche of Dublin, and her niece, Miss Boyle, came to spend a day or two. The aunt is a fine old lady; the conversation that of a serious person frightened out of her wits by the violence and superstition of our workers of miracles in the west.
I am sure you know the way, because I have seen a mysterious book about palmistry in your room. Now do, there's a dear girl." After a little more pressing, Miss Latouche acceded to the general request that she would show her skill. Several people pressed forward at once to have their fortunes told, the men being quite as eager as the girls, although they affected to laugh at the whole affair.
