This
was
such
a
singular
question
,
that
I
asked
him
in
return
,
"
Is
it
so
?
"
"
I
don
’
t
know
,
"
said
Herbert
,
"
that
’
s
what
I
want
to
know
.
Because
it
is
decidedly
the
case
with
us
.
My
poor
sister
Charlotte
,
who
was
next
me
and
died
before
she
was
fourteen
,
was
a
striking
example
.
Little
Jane
is
the
same
.
In
her
desire
to
be
matrimonially
established
,
you
might
suppose
her
to
have
passed
her
short
existence
in
the
perpetual
contemplation
of
domestic
bliss
.
Little
Alick
in
a
frock
has
already
made
arrangements
for
his
union
with
a
suitable
young
person
at
Kew
.
And
indeed
,
I
think
we
are
all
engaged
,
except
the
baby
.
"
"
Then
you
are
?
"
said
I
.
"
I
am
,
"
said
Herbert
;
"
but
it
’
s
a
secret
.
"
I
assured
him
of
my
keeping
the
secret
,
and
begged
to
be
favored
with
further
particulars
.
He
had
spoken
so
sensibly
and
feelingly
of
my
weakness
that
I
wanted
to
know
something
about
his
strength
.
"
May
I
ask
the
name
?
"
I
said
.
"
Name
of
Clara
,
"
said
Herbert
.
"
Live
in
London
?
"
"
Yes
.
perhaps
I
ought
to
mention
,
"
said
Herbert
,
who
had
become
curiously
crestfallen
and
meek
,
since
we
entered
on
the
interesting
theme
,
"
that
she
is
rather
below
my
mother
’
s
nonsensical
family
notions
.
Her
father
had
to
do
with
the
victualling
of
passenger
-
ships
.
I
think
he
was
a
species
of
purser
.
