I thought her very much aged when she first came into the office, but when she told me that she didn't much like me, she looked handsome and young enough." Instead of driving home, Frances turned the pony's head in the direction of a long shady road which led into a westerly direction away from Martinstown. She drove rapidly for about half an hour under the trees.
I hope you will spend the afternoon with me, Frances, and have tea; I can send you home in the evening." "You are very kind, Carrie, but I must not stay. I will say good-bye to you now, for I must go back to Martinstown for a few minutes early this afternoon. Good-bye, thank you. You are evidently a very real friend in need." Frances kissed Mrs.
Martin follows; a picturesque hamlet with a fine church, the last in the west of England to dispense with clarionet, flute and bass-viol in the village choir. On sign-posts as well as colloquially this hamlet is known as "Martinstown." Steepleton boasts a stone spire, rare for Dorset, and a curious and very ancient figure of an angel on the outside wall declared by most authorities to be Saxon.
Ah, yes, Fluff, you always were a sympathizing little woman." Here the squire patted the dimpled hand; he was not interested in Philip Arnold's inquiries. "If Frances is going to Martinstown, perhaps she will let me accompany her," said Arnold. "I will go and look for her." He did not wait for the squire's mumbling reply, but started off quickly on his quest.
"I am so glad you are not asleep," she said. "I don't like you when you fall asleep and get so red in the face; you frightened me last night I was terrified I cried. Didn't I, Mr. Arnold?" "Yes," replied Arnold, "you seemed a good deal alarmed. Do you happen to know where your daughter is, Mr. Kane?" "Yes; she is going into Martinstown on business for me.
"I have noticed that you haven't looked yourself ever since the day you went to Martinstown nearly a week ago now. Now I wonder at that, for the weather has been so perfect, and everything so sweet and nice; and I must say it is a comfort to have a pleasant man like Mr. Arnold in the house. I have enjoyed myself during the past week, and I greatly wonder you haven't, Frances."
