We believe that Sir George will sail in the packet of the first from Liverpool, and will return in time to be in his seat after the Easter holidays. His people and effects left town yesterday by the Liverpool coach. During the baronet's absence, his country will be hunted by Sir Gervaise de Brush, though the establishment at Templemore Hall will be kept up." "How came Sir George here, then?" Mr.
Templemore, ought you not to feel the disgrace of the punishment? inquired the captain severely. 'Yes, sir, if I felt I deserved it I should. I should not laugh, sir, if you sent me to the mast-head, replied the boy, assuming a serious countenance. 'You see, Mr. Markitall, that he can be grave, observed the captain.
Not that I mix with the soldiers; if I did, good-bye to my authority; but when I am alone I can hear all their discourse through the planks, and I often laugh to myself at the funny things they say.’ ‘And have you any acquaintance here?’ ‘The very best; much better than the Colonel and the rest, at their grand Templemore; I had never so many in my whole life before.
As, therefore, there appeared to be no chance of Mrs Templemore coming to take care of her child, Mr Witherington at last resolved to write to Bath, where his sister resided, and acquaint her with the whole story, requesting her to come and superintend his domestic concerns. A few days afterwards he received the following reply: "Bath, August. "My dear Brother Antony,
Sharp, the Honourable Captain " "George Templemore!" exclaimed the commander of the corvette, looking from one to the other. "Charles Ducie!" exclaimed the soi-disant Mr. Sharp. "Here then is an end of part of my hopes, and we have been on a wrong scent the whole time." "Perhaps not, Ducie: explain yourself." "You must have perceived my endeavours to speak you, from the moment you sailed?"
Our first object will be to explain to the reader by what means Edward Templemore was induced to surmise that in Francisco, whom he had considered as a rival, he had found a brother; and also to account for the reappearance of the pirate Cain.
"I think you might add Sir George Templemore; too," returned Eve, laughing. Ann Sidley looked hard at her young mistress, and smiled before she answered; and then she continued the discourse naturally, as if there had been no interruption. "Quite likely, ma'am; and Mr. Monday, and all the rest of that set.
Not that his marrying the girl is any business of mine; but I will punish him for disobedience of orders, at all events. Try him by a court-martial, by heavens!" The secretary made no reply: he knew very well that the admiral would do no such thing. "The Enterprise anchored at daylight, sir," reported the secretary as the admiral sat down to breakfast. "And where's Mr Templemore?"
"Mademoiselle Viefville will return to France in the autumn, but it will be with us all; for my dear father, cousin Jack, my husband " Eve blushed as she pronounced the novel word "and myself, not forgetting you my old nurse, will all sail for England, with Sir George and Lady Templemore, on our way to Italy, the first week in October." "I care not, ma'am, so that I go with you.
"Old families!" exclaimed Sir George Templemore, with quite as much stress as a well-bred man could very well lay on the words, in such circumstances. "Old families," repeated Eve, with all that emphasis which the baronet himself had hesitated about giving. "As old, at least, as two centuries can make them; and this, too, with origins beyond that period, like those of the rest of the world.
