"Of course she will some day, and of course she'll like it," said Miss Spalding. "We both of us have been there already." "But I mean Monkhams," said Lady Rowley, still simpering. "I declare I believe mamma thinks that your sister is to be married to Mr. Glascock!" said Lucy. "And so she is; isn't she?" said Lady Rowley. "Oh, mamma!" said Nora, jumping up.
"When she was told of all that he had to give in the way of wealth and rank, she took the bit between her teeth and would not be turned an inch. Of course she was in love." "I hope she may never regret it; that is all." "She must change her nature first. Everything she sees at Monkhams will make her stronger in her choice. With all her girlish ways, she is like a rock; nothing can move her."
And so it was settled among them that Nora Rowley should find a home at Monkhams, if a home in England should be wanted for her. It wanted but four days to that fixed for the marriage at Florence, and but six to that on which the Rowleys were to leave Italy for England, when Mr. Glascock received Trevelyan's letter.
