Bates
;
but
I
have
been
so
pleasantly
detained
!
Now
,
however
,
we
must
wish
you
and
Mrs.
Bates
good
morning
.
"
And
not
all
that
could
be
urged
to
detain
her
succeeded
.
She
regained
the
street
--
happy
in
this
,
that
though
much
had
been
forced
on
her
against
her
will
,
though
she
had
in
fact
heard
the
whole
substance
of
Jane
Fairfax
's
letter
,
she
had
been
able
to
escape
the
letter
itself
.
Jane
Fairfax
was
an
orphan
,
the
only
child
of
Mrs.
Bates
's
youngest
daughter
.
The
marriage
of
Lieut.
Fairfax
of
the
_______
regiment
of
infantry
,
and
Miss
Jane
Bates
,
had
had
its
day
of
fame
and
pleasure
,
hope
and
interest
;
but
nothing
now
remained
of
it
,
save
the
melancholy
remembrance
of
him
dying
in
action
abroad
--
of
his
widow
sinking
under
consumption
and
grief
soon
afterwards
--
and
this
girl
.
By
birth
she
belonged
to
Highbury
:
and
when
at
three
years
old
,
on
losing
her
mother
,
she
became
the
property
,
the
charge
,
the
consolation
,
the
fondling
of
her
grandmother
and
aunt
,
there
had
seemed
every
probability
of
her
being
permanently
fixed
there
;
of
her
being
taught
only
what
very
limited
means
could
command
,
and
growing
up
with
no
advantages
of
connexion
or
improvement
,
to
be
engrafted
on
what
nature
had
given
her
in
a
pleasing
person
,
good
understanding
,
and
warm-hearted
,
well-meaning
relations
.
But
the
compassionate
feelings
of
a
friend
of
her
father
gave
a
change
to
her
destiny
.
This
was
Colonel
Campbell
,
who
had
very
highly
regarded
Fairfax
,
as
an
excellent
officer
and
most
deserving
young
man
;
and
farther
,
had
been
indebted
to
him
for
such
attentions
,
during
a
severe
camp-fever
,
as
he
believed
had
saved
his
life
.
These
were
claims
which
he
did
not
learn
to
overlook
,
though
some
years
passed
away
from
the
death
of
poor
Fairfax
,
before
his
own
return
to
England
put
any
thing
in
his
power
.
When
he
did
return
,
he
sought
out
the
child
and
took
notice
of
her
.
He
was
a
married
man
,
with
only
one
living
child
,
a
girl
,
about
Jane
's
age
:
and
Jane
became
their
guest
,
paying
them
long
visits
and
growing
a
favourite
with
all
;
and
before
she
was
nine
years
old
,
his
daughter
's
great
fondness
for
her
,
and
his
own
wish
of
being
a
real
friend
,
united
to
produce
an
offer
from
Colonel
Campbell
of
undertaking
the
whole
charge
of
her
education
.
It
was
accepted
;
and
from
that
period
Jane
had
belonged
to
Colonel
Campbell
's
family
,
and
had
lived
with
them
entirely
,
only
visiting
her
grandmother
from
time
to
time
.
The
plan
was
that
she
should
be
brought
up
for
educating
others
;
the
very
few
hundred
pounds
which
she
inherited
from
her
father
making
independence
impossible
.
To
provide
for
her
otherwise
was
out
of
Colonel
Campbell
's
power
;
for
though
his
income
,
by
pay
and
appointments
,
was
handsome
,
his
fortune
was
moderate
and
must
be
all
his
daughter
's
;
but
,
by
giving
her
an
education
,
he
hoped
to
be
supplying
the
means
of
respectable
subsistence
hereafter
.
Such
was
Jane
Fairfax
's
history
.
She
had
fallen
into
good
hands
,
known
nothing
but
kindness
from
the
Campbells
,
and
been
given
an
excellent
education
.
Living
constantly
with
right-minded
and
well-informed
people
,
her
heart
and
understanding
had
received
every
advantage
of
discipline
and
culture
;
and
Colonel
Campbell
's
residence
being
in
London
,
every
lighter
talent
had
been
done
full
justice
to
,
by
the
attendance
of
first-rate
masters
.
Her
disposition
and
abilities
were
equally
worthy
of
all
that
friendship
could
do
;
and
at
eighteen
or
nineteen
she
was
,
as
far
as
such
an
early
age
can
be
qualified
for
the
care
of
children
,
fully
competent
to
the
office
of
instruction
herself
;
but
she
was
too
much
beloved
to
be
parted
with
.
Neither
father
nor
mother
could
promote
,
and
the
daughter
could
not
endure
it
.
The
evil
day
was
put
off
.
It
was
easy
to
decide
that
she
was
still
too
young
;
and
Jane
remained
with
them
,
sharing
,
as
another
daughter
,
in
all
the
rational
pleasures
of
an
elegant
society
,
and
a
judicious
mixture
of
home
and
amusement
,
with
only
the
drawback
of
the
future
,
the
sobering
suggestions
of
her
own
good
understanding
to
remind
her
that
all
this
might
soon
be
over
.
