No
one
could
have
detected
any
anxiety
in
Mr
.
Brooke
’
s
manner
,
but
he
did
really
wish
to
know
something
of
his
niece
’
s
mind
,
that
,
if
there
were
any
need
for
advice
,
he
might
give
it
in
time
.
What
feeling
he
,
as
a
magistrate
who
had
taken
in
so
many
ideas
,
could
make
room
for
,
was
unmixedly
kind
.
Since
Dorothea
did
not
speak
immediately
,
he
repeated
,
"
I
thought
it
better
to
tell
you
,
my
dear
.
"
"
Thank
you
,
uncle
,
"
said
Dorothea
,
in
a
clear
unwavering
tone
.
"
I
am
very
grateful
to
Mr
.
Casaubon
.
If
he
makes
me
an
offer
,
I
shall
accept
him
.
I
admire
and
honor
him
more
than
any
man
I
ever
saw
.
"
Mr
.
Brooke
paused
a
little
,
and
then
said
in
a
lingering
low
tone
,
"
Ah
?
.
.
.
Well
!
He
is
a
good
match
in
some
respects
.
But
now
,
Chettam
is
a
good
match
.
And
our
land
lies
together
.
I
shall
never
interfere
against
your
wishes
,
my
dear
.
People
should
have
their
own
way
in
marriage
,
and
that
sort
of
thing
—
up
to
a
certain
point
,
you
know
.
I
have
always
said
that
,
up
to
a
certain
point
.
I
wish
you
to
marry
well
;
and
I
have
good
reason
to
believe
that
Chettam
wishes
to
marry
you
.
I
mention
it
,
you
know
.
"
"
It
is
impossible
that
I
should
ever
marry
Sir
James
Chettam
,
"
said
Dorothea
.
"
If
he
thinks
of
marrying
me
,
he
has
made
a
great
mistake
.
"
"
That
is
it
,
you
see
.
One
never
knows
.
I
should
have
thought
Chettam
was
just
the
sort
of
man
a
woman
would
like
,
now
.
"
"
Pray
do
not
mention
him
in
that
light
again
,
uncle
,
"
said
Dorothea
,
feeling
some
of
her
late
irritation
revive
.
Mr
.
Brooke
wondered
,
and
felt
that
women
were
an
inexhaustible
subject
of
study
,
since
even
he
at
his
age
was
not
in
a
perfect
state
of
scientific
prediction
about
them
.
Here
was
a
fellow
like
Chettam
with
no
chance
at
all
.
"
Well
,
but
Casaubon
,
now
.
There
is
no
hurry
—
I
mean
for
you
.
It
’
s
true
,
every
year
will
tell
upon
him
.
He
is
over
five
-
and
-
forty
,
you
know
.
I
should
say
a
good
seven
-
and
-
twenty
years
older
than
you
.
To
be
sure
—
if
you
like
learning
and
standing
,
and
that
sort
of
thing
,
we
can
’
t
have
everything
.
And
his
income
is
good
—
he
has
a
handsome
property
independent
of
the
Church
—
his
income
is
good
.
Still
he
is
not
young
,
and
I
must
not
conceal
from
you
,
my
dear
,
that
I
think
his
health
is
not
over
-
strong
.
I
know
nothing
else
against
him
.
