Doubtless thou art the envoy from this scrupulous Mauger, or some other of my gentle clergy; and thou comest, as doubtless, with soft words and whining homilies. It is in vain. I hold the Church in holy reverence; the pontiff knows it.
And he wondered to himself if this could really be the Nance he used to hate and persecute. But Nance detested him and all his ways as of old. Tom Hamon and Peter Mauger seated themselves on a rock within a few feet of the narrow slit out of which Nance and Bernel had been looking. "Ouaie," said Tom, taking up his parable "wanted me to join him in getting a loan on farm, he did." "Aw, now!"
Not that I told him so, no, I told him it wuz onmanly to carry on so. But truly the heat wuz fearful, our clothin' stuck to us and prespiration and sweat run down our faces. The next day it wuz so hot I felt kinder mauger and stayed to home.
The kindness and generosity of Joshua Mauger, who bore the expense of their appeal and exerted himself in their behalf, were fully appreciated, and as a tribute of respect and gratitude to their patron the settlers gave to their township the name of "Maugerville." The Township of Maugerville was laid out early in the year 1762 by a party under Israel Perley their land surveyor.
"You looked nice before you went in," chuckled Tom, who never knew when to stop, "but you looked a sight nicer when you came out and sat on rocks with it all stuck to you " "You're a a a disgusting thing, Tom Hamon, and you're just as bad, Peter Mauger!" and she looked as if she would have flown at them, but, instead, jumped up and flung out of the room.
And that was not very much and tended chiefly to scorn and dissatisfaction, seeing that her knowledge was gleaned almost entirely from her experiences of Tom and Peter Mauger. Her father was, of course, her father, and on somewhat of a different plane from other men.
Bishop Mauger, whom he had appointed to the See of Rouen, found fault with the marriage owing to its being within the forbidden degrees of relationship, and the papal sanction having been refused, William only obtained his wishes through the agency of Lanfranc.
"And Peter Mauger" Peter repeated the performance, more shyly and awkwardly even than Tom, from a variety of reasons. Tom was at home, and he had not even been invited except by Tom. And strangers always made him shy. And then there was Nance, with her great eyes fixed on him, he knew, though he had not dared to look straight at her.
The ship was off the Cape on the afternoon of January 9, and a boat put off with Stenhouse, Cope, Joyce, Ninnis, Mauger, and Aitken to search for a landing-place. "We steered in towards the Barrier," wrote Stenhouse, "and found an opening leading into a large bight which jutted back to eastward into the Barrier.
"Mon Gyu!" gasped Nance to herself, and went in wondering. "She and Tom wanted me to take my old room again, and I refused," was all he said. "Tom wanted you to go there?" said Mrs. Hamon in amazement. "So she said." Grannie's disparaging sniff was charged with libel. "Well?" asked Tom of his wife, when he came in later on with Peter Mauger, who had come over for supper. "Got your lodger?" "No."
