Fanny had scarcely passed the solemn-looking servants, when Lady Bertram came from the drawing-room to meet her; came with no indolent step; and falling on her neck, said, "Dear Fanny! now I shall be comfortable." It had been a miserable party, each of the three believing themselves most miserable. Mrs. Norris, however, as most attached to Maria, was really the greatest sufferer.

'Hallo hallo! a dozen voices echoed from the table around which the all-accomplished sat: 'A rustic intruder is upon us! half muttered the man who followed me in. 'It's only Solomon Smooth, Esq., from the Cape, returned I, with a good, wholesome laugh.

That was sure a new combination on me.

May remembered Hal's once saying that he saw the fireman disappear somewhere around that venerable building, so an early hour found her seated at her father's side in the solemn-looking chapel, watching the arrival of the spectators, but more particularly the entrance of the students. The exercises commenced, still May had discovered no face resembling the fireman of her dreams.
Cecil came face to face with his brother in the room where refreshments were being dispensed by solemn-looking footmen and trim parlour-maids. He stared at him for a moment in surprise. "What on earth are you doing here, Andrew?" he asked. "Exactly what I was wondering myself," Andrew answered, setting down his empty glass.
