Claires, and Athertons, and Tracys. Jerrie would draw; Jerry would boost; and he found himself forming many plans for the young couple, who were to occupy the south wing; and in fancy he saw Arthur at Le Bateau half the time at least, while the rest of the time the carriages from Grassy Spring, and Brier Hill, and Tracy Park, were standing under the stone arch in front of the door.
Frank and would-be Congressman continued to walk the room lamenting the party which must be, and wondering what his aristocratic brother would say to such a crowd in his house on the night of his return. And if there should be a Mrs. Arthur Tracy, with possibly some little Tracys!
"Our little Moppet has come perilously near death," said Miss Euphemia, following Pamela into the house. "She has been rescued from drowning in Great Pond by a gentleman whom Betty had never seen before. She describes him as a fine personable youth, and I think it maybe Oliver's friend, young Otis, who in expected at the Tracys' on a visit from Boston."
It took place the 10th of October, in Mrs. Crawford's little parlor, with only a few intimate friends present Grace Atherton, the St. Claires, Ann Eliza Peterkin, and the Tracys, with the exception of Dolly, who could not do so great violence to her feeling, as to attend a wedding.
The de Tracys had no opinion of America, its government, its institutions, its customs, or its people, and when they learned that Cynthia de Tracy had not only allied herself with this undesirable nation, but had selected a native by the name of Harold Bean, they regarded the incident of the marriage as closed.
But when the Tracy carriage drew up, Grace Atherton saw and recognized her, and whispered, in an aside to her companion: 'For goodness' sake, Edith, look! There are the Tracys, our new neighbors. Then she bowed to Mrs. Tracy, and said: 'Ah, I did not know you were on the train. 'I sat right behind you, was Mrs.
'Let them Tracys bury their own dead, he said to his wife before he left home, and he said it again in substance now, as with a tremendous 'ahem! he commenced his speech standing close to little Jerry, who never took her eyes from him, but watched him with a face which varied in its expression with every variation in his voice and manner, and reached its climax when he said: 'I don't b'lieve in saddlin' the town with a debt we don't orto pay.
But I know how you feel, because that's the way I felt when father gave that Irish setter to the Tracys." She went on chattering her teeth as if she was cold, so I put the table-cover around her. "You dear Billy," she said. But that was stuff. "I wouldn't bother," I said. "Likely he's forgotten about you. I often forget things myself."
"Pistols for two, coffee for four, at eight to-morrow," said Henderson. "Trample on the Dragon's tail, someone, and rouse him to the occasion. What! he won't come to the scratch? Alack! alack! "`What can ennoble fools or cowards Not all the blood of all the Tracys, Dragons, and Howards!"
He had vowed vengeance against the Tracys then, and kept his vow by spending two thousand dollars in order to defeat Frank as member of Congress and to get himself elected as one of the village trustees, and now he had come, partly out of curiosity to see the woman, and partly to oppose her being buried by the town, if such a thing were suggested.
