"I fancy that she wandered back to Beechfield out of love for her father and her old home, poor child. She is not to be blamed for her father's sins, surely!" he added, seeing rather an odd expression on Mrs. Rumbold's face as the involuntary words of pity passed his lips. "Oh, no, no of course not!" Mrs. Rumbold hastened to reply. "It is very kind of you, Mr.
What business has HE to be dangling about George Rumbold's premises, and sticking up his ugly pug-face as a model for all George's pictures? Miss Clapperclaw says Bulbul is evidently smitten, and Clara too. What! would she put up with such a little fribble as that, when there is a man of intellect and taste who but I won't believe it. It is all the jealousy of women.
"I will leave you my address" he produced a card from his pocket-book, and with it a ten-pound note "and this will perhaps be useful in getting clothes and things of that kind for her. If you want more, you will let me know." He escaped with difficulty from Mrs. Rumbold's rapturous expression of surprise at his liberality, and at last got out into the hall.

Let Rumbold's declaration, then, be examined upon these principles, and we shall find that it has every character of truth, without a single circumstance to discredit it.
She said this very discreetly, so as not to hurt Mrs Rumbold's feelings, for she trained the choir. Everyone knew that the king was Mr Rumbold, and said "Charming" to each other, after he had sung. "I liked that boy's voice, too," said Mrs Weston. "Tommy Luton used to have a lovely voice, but this one's struck me as better-trained even than Tommy Luton's. Great credit to you, Mrs Rumbold."
"Do you think that the man Dare has any connection with Beechfield beside that of his recent visit?" "Yes, I do. He caught himself up like once or twice when I began to talk of it; and once he put me right accidental like about the name of somebody at Beechfield." "Whose name?" "I'm not sure as I can remember.
