'I am coming about my Howel and your Netta, Mrs Prothero Howel is in a fine temper, keeping noise enough, I can tell you; and I should like to be knowing why he isn't good enough for your doater, Mrs Prothero; him as is worth hundreds of thousands, and is as like to be coming a member, and to be riding in his own carriage, and to be dining with the Queen for that much! and seurely, he don't be good enough for Miss Prothero Glanyravon Farm!
Here Mrs Jones interposed, and explained how matters stood. In a few moments Gladys appeared to say that Netta was ready in her little sitting-room to see her brothers.
'But you love me better still, Netta; so do not cry, and we will be as happy as the day is long. Will you promise me? Netta sobbed on and hesitated. 'I am going to London to-morrow, cousin Netta, to pay debts, and make myself clear of the world.
Owen and Gladys came, and Netta bade 'God bless' them all, and said she should now go to sleep quite happy. Gladys went to put Minette to bed, and Mrs Prothero sat by Netta's pillow. 'Good-night, mother; God bless you, Netta said, more than once, before she fell asleep. When Gladys returned, she was sleeping peacefully. 'The excitement of the day seems to have passed away, whispered Gladys.
I wish you as many converts as you desire, but not myself amongst them. Remember, Netta! Good bye. I suppose your most excellent brother will allow us to shake hands. Netta held out her hand, and as Howel shook it, he again repeated the word 'remember. Rowland advanced a pace or two, and partly extended his hand.
'Oh! but you did in the street, and once in the post office, when you were a boy at the college. 'Such impressions are fleeting, my dear, as you will live to prove. Your other aunt, Miss Netta 'Oh! she will have been born after your time, said the child, with calm, unconscious cruelty. 'But you will see her presently.
Then Freda did her best to amuse Netta until Mrs Jones appeared, and said Gladys was quite ready to assist Netta, if she liked to retire for the night. When Netta was in bed, Gladys joined her friends, and they discussed, more calmly than before, their newly-found relationship.
Her skin was pale, but of such a texture that Thyrza's roses-and-milk looked rough and common beside it. Every inch of the proud little head was covered with close short curls leaving the white neck free, and the hand lifted to her mouth was of a waxen delicacy. Netta opened a picture-book that Anastasia had brought down with her. Felicia pushed it away. Netta opened it again.
While these two were slowly wending their way through Kensington Gardens, Emma Gray arrived at the Captain's villa California Cottage, he called it and rang the bell. The gate was opened by Netta White, who, although not much bigger than when first introduced to the reader, was incomparably more beautiful and smart. Mrs Stoutley had reason to be proud of her.
'No; I hate him. Howel kept his word, and stayed at home that one day with Netta and her child, and she wrote that day down on the tablets of her memory as the brightest spot in six years of trouble and distrust. In a few days Mrs Griffith Jenkins arrived in London, equally surprised and delighted by the invitation she had received from her son and daughter-in-law.
