"I have been told certain things, and what I'm told in confidence cart-ropes won't drag from me. Your father and mother have gone to London because there is a hope, just a hope, that terrible trouble may be averted. It's all uncertainty, and it's all suspense at present, Molly; and those who are cowards will bear it badly, and those who are brave will bear it well.
As to the girl, I'm sure I shouldn't remember her if I were to see her. 'It would be a fine thing if Adolphus would marry her, said Lady Pomona. 'Dolly will never marry anybody, said Georgiana.

"And be you assured that the Colonel will come without waiting for one," said Charles. "Folk cannot judge rightly where sisters are concerned they are too familiar with the magnet to judge of its powers of attraction.
