Though he told himself that it would have been evil for him to have depended on money which had been procured by the very act which had been to him an injury to have dressed himself in the feathers which had been plucked from Lord Ongar's wings it was hard for him to think of all he had missed, and rejoice thoroughly that he had missed it.
Burton was surprised, and at first almost silenced, by this open mentioning of a name which she had felt that she would have the greatest difficulty in approaching. She said, however, that it was so. She had heard Lady Ongar's name from Mr. Clavering. "We are connected, you know," said Lady Ongar.
It was now Christmas time at Stratton, or rather Christmas time was near at hand; not the Christmas next after the autumn of Lord Ongar's marriage, but the following Christmas, and Harry Clavering had finished his studies in Mr. Burton's office. He flattered himself that he had not been idle while he was there, and was now about to commence his more advanced stage of pupilage, under the great Mr.
And when he found that Lord Ongar's widow still loved him that he was still regarded with affection by the woman who had formerly wounded him there was too much of pain, almost of tragedy, in his position, to admit of vanity.

"Most probably not. My ways and Lord Ongar's will be altogether different, even if I should succeed in getting up to London. If you ever come to see Hermione here, I may chance to meet you in the house.

At last he encountered in the crowd a man in livery, and found from him that he was Lady Ongar's servant. "I have come to meet Lady Ongar," said Harry, "and have got a carriage for her."
It was acknowledged by all the friends of the two families, and indeed I may say of the three families now among the Brabazon people, and the Clavering people, and the Courton people Lord Ongar's family name was Courton that Julia Brabazon had been very clever. Of her and Harry Clavering together no one had ever said a word.
