He is a young manâ âmodest and gentlemanlikeâ âI am sure you will like him.â Think of those words being spoken to me publicly, in the presence of strangersâ âstrangers who had been invited to meet the bride and bridegroom! I did all I could to control myselfâ âI said nothing, and looked down close at the drawings. When I ventured to raise my head again, my eyes and my husbandâs eyes met, and I knew, by his look, that my face had betrayed me. âWe will see about Mr. Hartright,â he said, looking at me all the time, âwhen we get back to England. I agree with you, Mrs.
