Salisbury
she
had
known
to
be
her
point
on
leaving
Northanger
;
but
after
the
first
stage
she
had
been
indebted
to
the
post
-
masters
for
the
names
of
the
places
which
were
then
to
conduct
her
to
it
;
so
great
had
been
her
ignorance
of
her
route
.
She
met
with
nothing
,
however
,
to
distress
or
frighten
her
.
Her
youth
,
civil
manners
,
and
liberal
pay
procured
her
all
the
attention
that
a
traveller
like
herself
could
require
;
and
stopping
only
to
change
horses
,
she
travelled
on
for
about
eleven
hours
without
accident
or
alarm
,
and
between
six
and
seven
o
’
clock
in
the
evening
found
herself
entering
Fullerton
.
A
heroine
returning
,
at
the
close
of
her
career
,
to
her
native
village
,
in
all
the
triumph
of
recovered
reputation
,
and
all
the
dignity
of
a
countess
,
with
a
long
train
of
noble
relations
in
their
several
phaetons
,
and
three
waiting
-
maids
in
a
travelling
chaise
and
four
,
behind
her
,
is
an
event
on
which
the
pen
of
the
contriver
may
well
delight
to
dwell
;
it
gives
credit
to
every
conclusion
,
and
the
author
must
share
in
the
glory
she
so
liberally
bestows
.
But
my
affair
is
widely
different
;
I
bring
back
my
heroine
to
her
home
in
solitude
and
disgrace
;
and
no
sweet
elation
of
spirits
can
lead
me
into
minuteness
.
A
heroine
in
a
hack
post
-
chaise
is
such
a
blow
upon
sentiment
,
as
no
attempt
at
grandeur
or
pathos
can
withstand
.
Swiftly
therefore
shall
her
post
-
boy
drive
through
the
village
,
amid
the
gaze
of
Sunday
groups
,
and
speedy
shall
be
her
descent
from
it
.
But
,
whatever
might
be
the
distress
of
Catherine
’
s
mind
,
as
she
thus
advanced
towards
the
parsonage
,
and
whatever
the
humiliation
of
her
biographer
in
relating
it
,
she
was
preparing
enjoyment
of
no
everyday
nature
for
those
to
whom
she
went
;
first
,
in
the
appearance
of
her
carriage
—
and
secondly
,
in
herself
.
The
chaise
of
a
traveller
being
a
rare
sight
in
Fullerton
,
the
whole
family
were
immediately
at
the
window
;
and
to
have
it
stop
at
the
sweep
-
gate
was
a
pleasure
to
brighten
every
eye
and
occupy
every
fancy
—
a
pleasure
quite
unlooked
for
by
all
but
the
two
youngest
children
,
a
boy
and
girl
of
six
and
four
years
old
,
who
expected
a
brother
or
sister
in
every
carriage
.
Happy
the
glance
that
first
distinguished
Catherine
!
Happy
the
voice
that
proclaimed
the
discovery
!
But
whether
such
happiness
were
the
lawful
property
of
George
or
Harriet
could
never
be
exactly
understood
.
Her
father
,
mother
,
Sarah
,
George
,
and
Harriet
,
all
assembled
at
the
door
to
welcome
her
with
affectionate
eagerness
,
was
a
sight
to
awaken
the
best
feelings
of
Catherine
’
s
heart
;
and
in
the
embrace
of
each
,
as
she
stepped
from
the
carriage
,
she
found
herself
soothed
beyond
anything
that
she
had
believed
possible
.
So
surrounded
,
so
caressed
,
she
was
even
happy
!
In
the
joyfulness
of
family
love
everything
for
a
short
time
was
subdued
,
and
the
pleasure
of
seeing
her
,
leaving
them
at
first
little
leisure
for
calm
curiosity
,
they
were
all
seated
round
the
tea
-
table
,
which
Mrs
.
Morland
had
hurried
for
the
comfort
of
the
poor
traveller
,
whose
pale
and
jaded
looks
soon
caught
her
notice
,
before
any
inquiry
so
direct
as
to
demand
a
positive
answer
was
addressed
to
her
.
Reluctantly
,
and
with
much
hesitation
,
did
she
then
begin
what
might
perhaps
,
at
the
end
of
half
an
hour
,
be
termed
,
by
the
courtesy
of
her
hearers
,
an
explanation
;
but
scarcely
,
within
that
time
,
could
they
at
all
discover
the
cause
,
or
collect
the
particulars
,
of
her
sudden
return
.
They
were
far
from
being
an
irritable
race
;
far
from
any
quickness
in
catching
,
or
bitterness
in
resenting
,
affronts
:
but
here
,
when
the
whole
was
unfolded
,
was
an
insult
not
to
be
overlooked
,
nor
,
for
the
first
half
hour
,
to
be
easily
pardoned
.
Without
suffering
any
romantic
alarm
,
in
the
consideration
of
their
daughter
’
s
long
and
lonely
journey
,
Mr
.
and
Mrs
.
Morland
could
not
but
feel
that
it
might
have
been
productive
of
much
unpleasantness
to
her
;
that
it
was
what
they
could
never
have
voluntarily
suffered
;
and
that
,
in
forcing
her
on
such
a
measure
,
General
Tilney
had
acted
neither
honourably
nor
feelingly
—
neither
as
a
gentleman
nor
as
a
parent
.
Why
he
had
done
it
,
what
could
have
provoked
him
to
such
a
breach
of
hospitality
,
and
so
suddenly
turned
all
his
partial
regard
for
their
daughter
into
actual
ill
will
,
was
a
matter
which
they
were
at
least
as
far
from
divining
as
Catherine
herself
;
but
it
did
not
oppress
them
by
any
means
so
long
;
and
,
after
a
due
course
of
useless
conjecture
,
that
“
it
was
a
strange
business
,
and
that
he
must
be
a
very
strange
man
,
”
grew
enough
for
all
their
indignation
and
wonder
;
though
Sarah
indeed
still
indulged
in
the
sweets
of
incomprehensibility
,
exclaiming
and
conjecturing
with
youthful
ardour
.
“
My
dear
,
you
give
yourself
a
great
deal
of
needless
trouble
,
”
said
her
mother
at
last
;
“
depend
upon
it
,
it
is
something
not
at
all
worth
understanding
.
”
“
I
can
allow
for
his
wishing
Catherine
away
,
when
he
recollected
this
engagement
,
”
said
Sarah
,
“
but
why
not
do
it
civilly
?
”
“
I
am
sorry
for
the
young
people
,
”
returned
Mrs
.
Morland
;
“
they
must
have
a
sad
time
of
it
;
but
as
for
anything
else
,
it
is
no
matter
now
;
Catherine
is
safe
at
home
,
and
our
comfort
does
not
depend
upon
General
Tilney
.
”
Catherine
sighed
.
“
Well
,
”
continued
her
philosophic
mother
,
“
I
am
glad
I
did
not
know
of
your
journey
at
the
time
;
but
now
it
is
all
over
,
perhaps
there
is
no
great
harm
done
.
It
is
always
good
for
young
people
to
be
put
upon
exerting
themselves
;
and
you
know
,
my
dear
Catherine
,
you
always
were
a
sad
little
scatter
-
brained
creature
;
but
now
you
must
have
been
forced
to
have
your
wits
about
you
,
with
so
much
changing
of
chaises
and
so
forth
;
and
I
hope
it
will
appear
that
you
have
not
left
anything
behind
you
in
any
of
the
pockets
.
