I
am
very
glad
,
indeed
,
my
dear
,
to
hear
she
is
to
be
so
comfortably
settled
.
Mrs.
Elton
is
very
good-natured
and
agreeable
,
and
I
dare
say
her
acquaintance
are
just
what
they
ought
to
be
.
I
hope
it
is
a
dry
situation
,
and
that
her
health
will
be
taken
good
care
of
.
It
ought
to
be
a
first
object
,
as
I
am
sure
poor
Miss
Taylor
's
always
was
with
me
.
You
know
,
my
dear
,
she
is
going
to
be
to
this
new
lady
what
Miss
Taylor
was
to
us
.
And
I
hope
she
will
be
better
off
in
one
respect
,
and
not
be
induced
to
go
away
after
it
has
been
her
home
so
long
.
"
The
following
day
brought
news
from
Richmond
to
throw
every
thing
else
into
the
background
.
An
express
arrived
at
Randalls
to
announce
the
death
of
Mrs.
Churchill
!
Though
her
nephew
had
had
no
particular
reason
to
hasten
back
on
her
account
,
she
had
not
lived
above
six-and-thirty
hours
after
his
return
.
A
sudden
seizure
of
a
different
nature
from
any
thing
foreboded
by
her
general
state
,
had
carried
her
off
after
a
short
struggle
.
The
great
Mrs.
Churchill
was
no
more
.
It
was
felt
as
such
things
must
be
felt
.
Every
body
had
a
degree
of
gravity
and
sorrow
;
tenderness
towards
the
departed
,
solicitude
for
the
surviving
friends
;
and
,
in
a
reasonable
time
,
curiosity
to
know
where
she
would
be
buried
.
Goldsmith
tells
us
,
that
when
lovely
woman
stoops
to
folly
,
she
has
nothing
to
do
but
to
die
;
and
when
she
stoops
to
be
disagreeable
,
it
is
equally
to
be
recommended
as
a
clearer
of
ill-fame
.
Mrs.
Churchill
,
after
being
disliked
at
least
twenty-five
years
,
was
now
spoken
of
with
compassionate
allowances
.
In
one
point
she
was
fully
justified
.
She
had
never
been
admitted
before
to
be
seriously
ill
.
The
event
acquitted
her
of
all
the
fancifulness
,
and
all
the
selfishness
of
imaginary
complaints
.
"
Poor
Mrs.
Churchill
!
no
doubt
she
had
been
suffering
a
great
deal
:
more
than
any
body
had
ever
supposed
--
and
continual
pain
would
try
the
temper
.
It
was
a
sad
event
--
a
great
shock
--
with
all
her
faults
,
what
would
Mr.
Churchill
do
without
her
?
Mr.
Churchill
's
loss
would
be
dreadful
indeed
.
Mr.
Churchill
would
never
get
over
it
.
"
--
Even
Mr.
Weston
shook
his
head
,
and
looked
solemn
,
and
said
,
"
Ah
!
poor
woman
,
who
would
have
thought
it
!
"
and
resolved
,
that
his
mourning
should
be
as
handsome
as
possible
;
and
his
wife
sat
sighing
and
moralising
over
her
broad
hems
with
a
commiseration
and
good
sense
,
true
and
steady
.
How
it
would
affect
Frank
was
among
the
earliest
thoughts
of
both
.
It
was
also
a
very
early
speculation
with
Emma
.
The
character
of
Mrs.
Churchill
,
the
grief
of
her
husband
--
her
mind
glanced
over
them
both
with
awe
and
compassion
--
and
then
rested
with
lightened
feelings
on
how
Frank
might
be
affected
by
the
event
,
how
benefited
,
how
freed
.
She
saw
in
a
moment
all
the
possible
good
.
Now
,
an
attachment
to
Harriet
Smith
would
have
nothing
to
encounter
.
Mr.
Churchill
,
independent
of
his
wife
,
was
feared
by
nobody
;
an
easy
,
guidable
man
,
to
be
persuaded
into
any
thing
by
his
nephew
.
All
that
remained
to
be
wished
was
,
that
the
nephew
should
form
the
attachment
,
as
,
with
all
her
goodwill
in
the
cause
,
Emma
could
feel
no
certainty
of
its
being
already
formed
.
Harriet
behaved
extremely
well
on
the
occasion
,
with
great
self-command
.
What
ever
she
might
feel
of
brighter
hope
,
she
betrayed
nothing
.
Emma
was
gratified
,
to
observe
such
a
proof
in
her
of
strengthened
character
,
and
refrained
from
any
allusion
that
might
endanger
its
maintenance
.
They
spoke
,
therefore
,
of
Mrs.
Churchill
's
death
with
mutual
forbearance
.
Short
letters
from
Frank
were
received
at
Randalls
,
communicating
all
that
was
immediately
important
of
their
state
and
plans
.
Mr.
Churchill
was
better
than
could
be
expected
;
and
their
first
removal
,
on
the
departure
of
the
funeral
for
Yorkshire
,
was
to
be
to
the
house
of
a
very
old
friend
in
Windsor
,
to
whom
Mr.
Churchill
had
been
promising
a
visit
the
last
ten
years
.
At
present
,
there
was
nothing
to
be
done
for
Harriet
;
good
wishes
for
the
future
were
all
that
could
yet
be
possible
on
Emma
's
side
.
It
was
a
more
pressing
concern
to
shew
attention
to
Jane
Fairfax
,
whose
prospects
were
closing
,
while
Harriet
's
opened
,
and
whose
engagements
now
allowed
of
no
delay
in
any
one
at
Highbury
,
who
wished
to
shew
her
kindness
--
and
with
Emma
it
was
grown
into
a
first
wish
.
She
had
scarcely
a
stronger
regret
than
for
her
past
coldness
;
and
the
person
,
whom
she
had
been
so
many
months
neglecting
,
was
now
the
very
one
on
whom
she
would
have
lavished
every
distinction
of
regard
or
sympathy
.
She
wanted
to
be
of
use
to
her
;
wanted
to
shew
a
value
for
her
society
,
and
testify
respect
and
consideration
.
She
resolved
to
prevail
on
her
to
spend
a
day
at
Hartfield
.
A
note
was
written
to
urge
it
.
The
invitation
was
refused
,
and
by
a
verbal
message
.
"
Miss
Fairfax
was
not
well
enough
to
write
;
"
and
when
Mr.
Perry
called
at
Hartfield
,
the
same
morning
,
it
appeared
that
she
was
so
much
indisposed
as
to
have
been
visited
,
though
against
her
own
consent
,
by
himself
,
and
that
she
was
suffering
under
severe
headaches
,
and
a
nervous
fever
to
a
degree
,
which
made
him
doubt
the
possibility
of
her
going
to
Mrs.
Smallridge
's
at
the
time
proposed
.
Her
health
seemed
for
the
moment
completely
deranged
--
appetite
quite
gone
--
and
though
there
were
no
absolutely
alarming
symptoms
,
nothing
touching
the
pulmonary
complaint
,
which
was
the
standing
apprehension
of
the
family
,
Mr.
Perry
was
uneasy
about
her
.
He
thought
she
had
undertaken
more
than
she
was
equal
to
,
and
that
she
felt
it
so
herself
,
though
she
would
not
own
it
.
Her
spirits
seemed
overcome
.
Her
present
home
,
he
could
not
but
observe
,
was
unfavourable
to
a
nervous
disorder
:
--
confined
always
to
one
room
--
he
could
have
wished
it
otherwise
--
and
her
good
aunt
,
though
his
very
old
friend
,
he
must
acknowledge
to
be
not
the
best
companion
for
an
invalid
of
that
description
.
Her
care
and
attention
could
not
be
questioned
;
they
were
,
in
fact
,
only
too
great
.
He
very
much
feared
that
Miss
Fairfax
derived
more
evil
than
good
from
them
.
Emma
listened
with
the
warmest
concern
;
grieved
for
her
more
and
more
,
and
looked
around
eager
to
discover
some
way
of
being
useful
.
