'Oh, mamma, whispered Milly to her mother, who was alone with her in the Stanway pew, 'do look; that's Mr. Twemlow. Several men in the congregation knew his identity, and one, a commercial traveller, had met him in New York. Before the final hymn was given out, half the chapel had pronounced his name in surprise.
Twemlow's death was hastened by a fire at the works; it happened that he could see the flames from his bedroom window; he survived the spectacle five days.

Proof, here, that he was being extensively talked about! Towards the end of the festivity the rumour floated abroad that the Countess had lost her fan.

Bran plunged into the room with a glad deafening bark, his tail thwacking the furniture like the flat of a sword. 'Get out, you great brute!

I wouldn't be surprised if you've noticed, Mrs. Stanway, how all the five Five Towns kind of sit and sniff at each other.
