She resented General Armour's imputation, but in her heart she began to pine and wonder. At times, too, she was fitful, and was not to be drawn out. But she went on improving in personal appearance and manner and in learning the English language. Mrs. Townley's appearance marked a change in her. When they met she suddenly stood still and trembled. When Mrs.
'We shall have gay doings, Mr Tyrrel, at the rectory shortly, he said. 'Next Monday three weeks will, with the blessing of God, be Agnes Townley's wedding-day. 'Wedding-day! 'Yes, rejoined the rector, turning towards and examining some flowers which Miss Townley had brought in and placed on the table.
"But chance always takes a hand in a round game, and at the psychological moment I come out of my house and upset an apple-cart your apple-cart, my good Grenelli. What incredible bad luck! to be bowled out by a shiny, red-cheeked pippin from Mattie Townley's orchard in Saco, Maine. You will remember a somewhat similar incident in the Garden of Eden several thousand years ago.
You have been reading all my letters, papers, manuscripts, brouillons of verses, inchoate articles for the Morning Post and Morning Chronicle, invitations to dinner and tea all my family letters, all Eliza Townley's letters, from the first, in which she declared that to be the bride of her beloved Michelagnolo was the fondest wish of her maiden heart, to the last, in which she announced that her Thomas was the best of husbands, and signed herself "Eliza Slogger;" all Mary Farmer's letters, all Emily Delamere's; all that poor foolish old Miss MacWhirter's, whom I would as soon marry as : in a word, I know that you, you hawk-beaked, keen-eyed, sleepless, indefatigable old Mrs.

It is nice to be with G. again, and she has lots to tell me about her doings dances, garden-parties, picnics all of which she has enjoyed thoroughly.
