"Well, mother, you know none of the Naylors are Methodists; that sets them down with Greenwood. The Naylors are all right. Fred Naylor has been very kind to me." "Did you speak to John about them?" "Greenwood had already spoken and John was angry and got into a passion at a simple business proposal they made." "John was right, he was that.
Neither man gave any sign of noticing their presence. "Mr. Saffron, you said? Rather a queer name, but he looks a nice old man; patriarchal, you know. What's the name of the other one?" "I did hear; somebody mentioned him at the Naylors' somebody who had heard something about him in France. What was the name? It was something queer too, I think."
It was well-nigh inconceivable that, for example, the Naylors great friends should ever leave him; but he would like to be quite secure of the pick of new patients, some of whom might, through ignorance or whim, call in Mary. There was old Saffron, for instance.
Jonathan only nodded his head in assent, but there was the pleasant light of accepted favor on his face and he really felt much relieved when John added, "I will have a talk with my brother when he comes home about the Naylors and Miss Lugur. You can dismiss the subject from your mind. I'm sure you have plenty to worry you with the mill and its workers."
In my junior days he spoke to me only three or four times, and then he annoyed me by giving me a wrong surname; it was a sore point because I was an outsider and not one of the old school families, the Shoesmiths, the Naylors, the Marklows, the Tophams, the Pevises and suchlike, who came generation after generation.
It is a grievous affair, but who could have thought that we were doing so much harm? 'Perhaps it may not do any, said Emily. 'The Naylors have a great deal of good about them. 'They must have more than I suppose, if they can endure what Robert is reported to have said of them, said Mr. Mohun.
'I am sure there is enough to make any one ill, said Emily, in her deplorable tone; 'I thought this poor parish had had its share of illness, with the scarlet fever, and now it has turned to a horrible typhus fever. 'Indeed! said Claude. 'Where? Who? 'Oh! the Naylors, and the Rays, and the Walls. John Ray died this morning, and they do not think that Tom Naylor will live.
He bets on everything, from his wife to the weather. I often heard your father say that betting is the argument of a fool and Jonathan Greenwood is of the same opinion." "Have you any particular dislike to the Naylors?" "I dislike to see Mr. Henry evening himself with such a bad lot; every one of them is as worthless as a canceled postage stamp." "They are rich, I hear." "To be sure they are.
Thy father ran the whole kith and kit of the Naylors out of Hatton village the very year of thy birth. He wouldn't have them in his village if he was alive and while I am lady of Hatton Manor they are not coming back here. I will see to that." "There is a new generation of Naylors now, and " "They are as bad and very likely worse than all before them. Families that don't grow better grow worse.
Yet Harry would share it with the Naylors, a horse-racing, betting, irreligious crowd, who have made their money in byways all their generations. Power of God! Only to think of it! Only to think of it! Harry ought to be ashamed of himself he ought that." "Now, John, my dear lad, I will not hear Harry blamed when he is not here to speak for himself no, I will not!
