Evremonde rose and conferred with her ladyship an instant, and then Drummond took her arm quietly, and passed round Olympus to the East, and Lady Jocelyn broke up the sitting. Juliana saw Rose go up to Evan, and make him introduce her to his mother. She turned lividly white, and went to a corner of the park by herself, and cried bitterly.
He is very poor' 'If he's poor, and a friend of yours, Evan, we'll have him, said Rose: 'we'll ride and fetch him. 'Yes, added Miss Carrington, 'that must be quite sufficient qualification. Juliana was not gazing gratefully at Evan for his proposal. Rose asked the name of Evan's friend. 'His name is Raikes, answered Evan. 'I don't know where he is now. He may be at Fallow field.
'Let him tell you with his own lips that what he has told your mother is true, and then, and not till then, believe him, Juliana concluded, and they kissed kindly, and separated. Rose had suddenly lost her firm step, but no sooner was Juliana alone than she left the bed, and addressed her visage to the glass with brightening eyes, as one who saw the glimmer of young hope therein. 'She love him!
No harmony came of it in his mind. How could he take an initiative? He walked forth on the lawn, where a group had gathered under the shade of a maple, consisting of Drummond Forth, Mrs. Evremonde, Mrs. Shorne, Mr. George Uplift, Seymour Jocelyn, and Ferdinand Laxley. A little apart Juliana Bonner was walking with Miss Carrington.
She said that if Juliana didn't give him a hint, she would be obliged to speak to him herself; and at that Juliana looked frightened and begged that Mrs. Moon would do nothing of the kind. "There will be no charge for friendly visits," said she; and she made a rapid calculation in the top of her head.
'So I thought, Juley! so I thought, cried Rose, at the new light, and Juliana smiled contemptuously, and the light flickered and died, and all was darker than before in the bosom of Rose. She had borne so much that this new drop was poison. 'Of course it must be that, if it is anything, Juliana pursued. 'You were made to be happy, Rose.
This was the last year of the course and in two months he would be a physician; he would come back to the town, he would marry Juliana, and they would be happy.
She was halted by surprising speech from this rather cheaply debonair creature who looked so nearly like a gentleman and yet so plainly was not. "Wanted to be off with 'em, didn't you?" Dave was saying brightly; "off and over the edge of the world, all foot-loose and free as wind, going over strange roads and lying by night under the stars." "What?" demanded Juliana sharply.
One night Juliana returned from her drive alarmingly ill. She was watched through the night by Caroline and the Countess alternately. In the morning the sisters met. 'She has consented to let us send for a doctor, said Caroline. 'Her chief desire seems to be a lawyer, said the Countess. 'Yes, but the doctor must be sent for first. 'Yes, indeed!
He was, indeed, to some extent struck by the appearance of Juliana, who, with her hair done up into what her mother called a "shin-on" a fashion much affected when she was a young woman and wearing a silk dress with flounces innumerable of the terra-cotta hue beloved, for some occult reason, of her kind, entered the room with an air of stately magnificence.
