Brook indeed appeared, after a pause and addressing herself again to Tishy, to give a reluctant illustration of it, coming back as from an excursion of the shortest to the question momentarily dropped. "I'm bound to say all the more you know that I don't quite see what Aggie mayn't now read." Suddenly, however, her look at their informant took on an anxiety.
Brookenham's failure to repudiate the vision appeared to suffice, and her visitor cheerfully took a further jump. "As much of Tishy as she wants AFTER. But not before." "After what?" "Well say after Mr. Mitchett. Mr. Mitchett won't take her after Mrs. Grendon." "And what are your grounds for assuming that he'll take her at all?"
The book I just mentioned is one that, months ago -I remember now I lent your mother." "Oh a thing in a blue cover? I remember then too." Nanda's face cleared up. "I had forgotten it was lying about here, but I must have brought it in fact I remember I did for Tishy. And I wrote your name on it so that we might know " "That I hadn't lent it to either of you?
Tishy, who sang in the chapel choir, and was at this time inclined to regard herself as a pillar of the Church, returned the kick with a viciousness that indicated a hostile point of view, and said loftily: "But to think they'd ask him! The English are very lax. Don't you think so, Father?" Dr. Mangan laughed apologetically.
She was moved by a perfectly genuine emotion of indignation; Larry was Mangan property, and it was not fitting that the leading family of Cluhir should be defeated. "You look half dead this minute!" she cried, pushing him down on to the sofa by the hand that she had taken. "Sit down for gracious sake!" Again the door opened, and from without the Doctor's deep voice said: "Tishy!
Her companions could only emphasise by the direction of their eyes the nature of the responsibility with which a spectator would have seen them saddled a choice, as to consciousness, between the effect of her being and the effect of her not being dressed. "Oh I'm hideous of course I know it," said Tishy. "I'm only just clean. Here's Nanda now, who's beautiful," she vaguely continued, "and Nanda "
Tishy was a child, but Effie was fifteen, and they were both very nice little girls, arrayed in fresh travelling dresses and deriving a quaintness from the fact that Tishy was already armed, for foreign adventures, with a smart new reticule, from which she could not be induced to part, and that Effie had her finger in her 'place' in a fat red volume of Murray.
"That's HER innocence!" the Duchess laughed to him. "And don't you suppose he has found it YET?" Mrs. Brook pursued earnestly to Tishy. "Isn't it something we might ALL play at if ?" On which however, abruptly checking herself, she changed her note. "Nanda love, please go and invite them to join us."
The red-headed medical student had not been honoured with an invitation. Dr. Mangan had struck his name from the list of guests saying that they had enough without him, and Tishy knew her father too well to protest. Dr. Mangan was in the habit of saying that he always left all household affairs "in the hands of the ladies."
But one day they thought they had me asleep in the room-corner, and the two of them was colloguin' away at the table, so all of suddint Tishy whips out me poor father's bag, that I knew the look of right well, when he used to keep his 'baccy in it, and down she slaps it, and it jinglin' wid money.
