John Henry Colclough of Tintern Abbey; but all these gentlemen were arrested on Saturday, the 26th of May the same day, or more strictly speaking, the eve of the day on which the Wexford outbreak occurred.

And this house," said Peter, glancing round and shaking his head "this house, which seems so beautiful to you now it's all done up, if you'd only seen the houses she's accustomed to staying at. Tintern Castle, for instance " "I was born in a greater house than Tintern Castle, Peter," said Lady Mary, gently. "Oh, of course. I'm saying nothing against Ferries," said Peter, impatiently.

Though, of course, Sarah must not go against her aunt, who had promised to do so much for her, and given her so many beautiful things, whether young girls ought to wear jewellery or not. This was the distracted letter which was bringing Lady Tintern to Hewelscourt.

Sarah said they were all wild to dance with him, and ready to shed tears for his lost arm." "And was he much with Sarah?" John laughed and shrugged his shoulders. "Miss Sarah is a star with many satellites. She raised my hopes, however, by appearing to have a few smiles to spare for Peter."

"Please drive on," whispered Cynthia. "I must see Tintern another time."

Hewel, who was very far from understanding such reasoning, and wept resentfully over the letter. Why should Lady Tintern snatch her only daughter away from her in order to marry her to a fool? Mrs. Hewel was of opinion that a sensible young man like Peter would be a better match.

On immerging into the wood, for such it was, extending the whole downward way to Tintern, we all suddenly found ourselves deprived of sight; obscurity aggravated almost into pitchy darkness!
