‘
It
was
Miss
Edwards
who
did
that
,
I
know
,
’
said
Miss
Monflathers
predictively
.
‘
Now
I
am
sure
that
was
Miss
Edwards
.
’
It
was
Miss
Edwards
,
and
everybody
said
it
was
Miss
Edwards
,
and
Miss
Edwards
herself
admitted
that
it
was
.
‘
Is
it
not
,
’
said
Miss
Monflathers
,
putting
down
her
parasol
to
take
a
severer
view
of
the
offender
,
‘
a
most
remarkable
thing
,
Miss
Edwards
,
that
you
have
an
attachment
to
the
lower
classes
which
always
draws
you
to
their
sides
;
or
,
rather
,
is
it
not
a
most
extraordinary
thing
that
all
I
say
and
do
will
not
wean
you
from
propensities
which
your
original
station
in
life
have
unhappily
rendered
habitual
to
you
,
you
extremely
vulgar
-
minded
girl
?

‘
I
really
intended
no
harm
,
ma
’
am
,
’
said
a
sweet
voice
.
‘
It
was
a
momentary
impulse
,
indeed
.
’
‘
An
impulse
!
’
repeated
Miss
Monflathers
scornfully
.
‘
I
wonder
that
you
presume
to
speak
of
impulses
to
me
’
—
both
the
teachers
assented
—
‘
I
am
astonished
’
—
both
the
teachers
were
astonished
—
‘
I
suppose
it
is
an
impulse
which
induces
you
to
take
the
part
of
every
grovelling
and
debased
person
that
comes
in
your
way
’
—
both
the
teachers
supposed
so
too
.
‘
But
I
would
have
you
know
,
Miss
Edwards
,
’
resumed
the
governess
in
a
tone
of
increased
severity
,
‘
that
you
cannot
be
permitted
—
if
it
be
only
for
the
sake
of
preserving
a
proper
example
and
decorum
in
this
establishment
—
that
you
cannot
be
permitted
,
and
that
you
shall
not
be
permitted
,
to
fly
in
the
face
of
your
superiors
in
this
exceedingly
gross
manner
.
If
you
have
no
reason
to
feel
a
becoming
pride
before
wax
-
work
children
,
there
are
young
ladies
here
who
have
,
and
you
must
either
defer
to
those
young
ladies
or
leave
the
establishment
,
Miss
Edwards
.

This
young
lady
,
being
motherless
and
poor
,
was
apprenticed
at
the
school
—
taught
for
nothing
—
teaching
others
what
she
learnt
,
for
nothing
—
boarded
for
nothing
—
lodged
for
nothing
—
and
set
down
and
rated
as
something
immeasurably
less
than
nothing
,
by
all
the
dwellers
in
the
house
.
The
servant
-
maids
felt
her
inferiority
,
for
they
were
better
treated
;
free
to
come
and
go
,
and
regarded
in
their
stations
with
much
more
respect
.
The
teachers
were
infinitely
superior
,
for
they
had
paid
to
go
to
school
in
their
time
,
and
were
paid
now
.
The
pupils
cared
little
for
a
companion
who
had
no
grand
stories
to
tell
about
home
;
no
friends
to
come
with
post
-
horses
,
and
be
received
in
all
humility
,
with
cake
and
wine
,
by
the
governess
;
no
deferential
servant
to
attend
and
bear
her
home
for
the
holidays
;
nothing
genteel
to
talk
about
,
and
nothing
to
display
.
But
why
was
Miss
Monflathers
always
vexed
and
irritated
with
the
poor
apprentice
—
how
did
that
come
to
pass
?
Why
,
the
gayest
feather
in
Miss
Monflathers
’
s
cap
,
and
the
brightest
glory
of
Miss
Monflathers
’
s
school
,
was
a
baronet
’
s
daughter
—
the
real
live
daughter
of
a
real
live
baronet
—
who
,
by
some
extraordinary
reversal
of
the
Laws
of
Nature
,
was
not
only
plain
in
features
but
dull
in
intellect
,
while
the
poor
apprentice
had
both
a
ready
wit
,
and
a
handsome
face
and
figure
.
It
seems
incredible
.
Here
was
Miss
Edwards
,
who
only
paid
a
small
premium
which
had
been
spent
long
ago
,
every
day
outshining
and
excelling
the
baronet
’
s
daughter
,
who
learned
all
the
extras
(
or
was
taught
them
all
)
and
whose
half
-
yearly
bill
came
to
double
that
of
any
other
young
lady
’
s
in
the
school
,
making
no
account
of
the
honour
and
reputation
of
her
pupilage
.
Therefore
,
and
because
she
was
a
dependent
,
Miss
Monflathers
had
a
great
dislike
to
Miss
Edwards
,
and
was
spiteful
to
her
,
and
aggravated
by
her
,
and
,
when
she
had
compassion
on
little
Nell
,
verbally
fell
upon
and
maltreated
her
as
we
have
already
seen
.
