Her own exertions prevented her dear Albina Hunter from returning; for Mrs. Beaumont never sent the promised carriage only a note of apology a nail had run into one of the coach-horse's feet. To accident she owed that the Walsinghams were not at home when her son galloped over to see them the next morning, and to inquire what news from Captain Walsingham.
You know, I have no relations in the world but your family and the Walsinghams, of whom, by-the-bye, I know nothing.
Consider, he can't go galloping about as you do, dear Edward." "But," said Amelia, "as the Walsinghams know he is to be in the country, they will of course come to see him immediately." "How do they know he is to be in the country?" "I thought I took it for granted, you told them so, mamma, when you wrote about not going to Walsingham House, on Mr. Walsingham's birthday."
There was old Bligh from the Magazine I take the guests in order of arrival and the Chattesworths, and the Walsinghams; and old Dowager Lady Glenvarlogh Colonel Stratford's cousin who flashed out in the evening sun from Dublin in thunder and dust and her carriage-and-four, bringing her mild little country niece, who watched her fat painted aunt all the time of dinner, with the corners of her frightened little eyes, across the table; and spoke sparingly, and ate with diffidence; and Captain Devereux was there; and the next beau who appeared was of all men in the world Mr.
Palmer, "as I was saying, the Walsinghams will, I trust, be the better sooner or later by me; for I think I foresee that Captain Walsingham, if a certain Spanish lady were out of the question, would propose for Amelia, and would persuade her to give up this foolish fancy of hers for that baronet." Mrs. Beaumont shook her head, as if she believed this could not possibly be done.
What would become of her scheme of marrying Amelia to the baronet, and her son to the docile Albina? What would become of the scheme of preventing him from being acquainted with the Walsinghams? For a week it might be practicable to keep them asunder by policising, but this could never be effected if he were to settle, or even to make any long stay, in the country.
He was related but distantly to the Beaumonts, and he stood in precisely the same degree of relationship to the Walsinghams. He had no other relations, and his fortune was completely at his own disposal. On this fortune our cunning widow had speculated long and deeply, though in fact there was no occasion for art: it was Mr.
That, of course, made an immediate change, as you have seen, in my measures; for such is my high opinion of the young man, and indeed my desire to be connected with the Walsinghams is so great, that even whilst I am in total ignorance of what the amount or value may be of this prize that he has taken, and even whilst I am in doubt concerning this Spanish incognita, I have not hesitated to declare, perhaps imprudently, to Amelia, as you have just heard, my full approbation of the choice of her heart."
Long may it be before our honest tars turn into calculating pirates!" "They never will or can whilst they have such officers as Captain Walsingham," said Beaumont. "By St. George, he seems to be a fine fellow, and you a warm friend," said Mr. Palmer. "Ay, ay, the colonel's own son. But why have I never seen any of these Walsinghams since I came to the country?
Beaumont, "to find it was a false report, and that we shall not be kept, the Lord knows how long, away from the dear Walsinghams." "Then we can go to them to-morrow, can't we, mamma? And I will write, and say so, shall I?" said Amelia. "No need to write, my dear; if we promise for any particular day, and are not able to go, that seems unkind, and is taken ill, you see. And as Mr.
