I couldn't get it straight; but as near as I could make out, Mauburn came up here afraid the blow of losing him was going to kill sis with a broken heart, and sis was afraid the blow was going to kill Mauburn, because she wouldn't have married him anyway, rich or poor, after he'd lost the title.
"Rot the luck!" said Mauburn; "I'm slated to take Mrs. Drelmer and Miss Bines to a musicale at the Van Lorrecks, where I'm certain to fall asleep trying to look as if I quite liked it, you know." "You come," Milbrey urged Percival. "My sister's there and the governor and mother." But for the moment Percival was reflecting, going over in his mind the recent homily of Higbee.
They found each other out some way, and then Mauburn accused her of being heartless, of caring only for his title, and she accused him of caring only for her money, and he insisted she ought to marry him anyway, but she wouldn't have it because of the twins " Uncle Peter rubbed his big brown hands with the first signs of cheerfulness he had permitted Percival to detect in him.
There is a Bines daughter, for example, and mamma, who never does one half where she can as well do two, will marry her to Fred if she can. On the other hand, Joe Drelmer was putting in words for young Mauburn, who will be Lord Casselthorpe when his disreputable old uncle dies.
Perhaps Mauburn will go." But Mauburn was taking Psyche and Mrs. Drelmer to the first night of a play, and Percival was finally persuaded by the old man to relax, for one evening, the austerity of his regime.
Bines, plaintively. "Here I've been away four days." "All right, ma, I suppose we shall have to take you there, only let's get out of here right away. We can bring sis and you back, Mrs. Drelmer, when those people we don't know get off again. There's Mauburn; I'll tell him." "I'll have my dunnage down directly," said Mauburn. Up the street driving a pony-cart came Avice Milbrey.
Mrs. Gwilt-Athelstan was instantly sympathetic. "Only I can't take sides, you know, my dear, and young Milbrey will think me shabby if he doesn't have first go; but I'll be impartial; Milbrey shall take her in, and Mauburn shall be at her other side, and may God have mercy on her soul!
Why, you'd be Lady Casselthorpe, with dukes and counts takin' off their crowns to you. And that other one that Milbrey from all I hear he's lighter'n cork cut his galluses and he'd float right up into the sky. He ain't got anything but his good family and a thirst." "I see. This Mauburn isn't good enough for your family, but you reckon he's good enough for me? Is that it, now?" "Come, Mrs.
As her chain was rattling through the hawse-hole, Percival, with his sister and Mauburn, came on deck. "Why, there's the Chicago Higbee's yacht." "That's the boat," said Mauburn, "that's been piling the white water up in front of her all afternoon trying to overhaul us." "There's Millie Higbee and old Silas, now." "And, as I live," exclaimed Psyche, "there's the Baron de Palliac between them!"
Mary's at Sion, near Delft, to which his brother Peter belonged, and St. Michael's at Hem, near Schoonhoven. The fame of Windesheim spread into France. In two successive years 1496, 7 parties were invited thence to reform French Benedictine houses. The first, headed by John Mauburn of Brussels, was brought in by the Abbot of St. Severinus' at Château-Landon near Fontainebleau.
