The
Mrs
.
Waule
who
was
so
far
from
being
admirable
in
the
eyes
of
these
distant
connections
,
had
happened
to
say
this
very
morning
(
not
at
all
with
a
defiant
air
,
but
in
a
low
,
muffied
,
neutral
tone
,
as
of
a
voice
heard
through
cotton
wool
)
that
she
did
not
wish
"
to
enjoy
their
good
opinion
.
"
She
was
seated
,
as
she
observed
,
on
her
own
brother
’
s
hearth
,
and
had
been
Jane
Featherstone
five
-
and
-
twenty
years
before
she
had
been
Jane
Waule
,
which
entitled
her
to
speak
when
her
own
brother
’
s
name
had
been
made
free
with
by
those
who
had
no
right
to
it
.
"
What
are
you
driving
at
there
?
"
said
Mr
.
Featherstone
,
holding
his
stick
between
his
knees
and
settling
his
wig
,
while
he
gave
her
a
momentary
sharp
glance
,
which
seemed
to
react
on
him
like
a
draught
of
cold
air
and
set
him
coughing
.
Mrs
.
Waule
had
to
defer
her
answer
till
he
was
quiet
again
,
till
Mary
Garth
had
supplied
him
with
fresh
syrup
,
and
he
had
begun
to
rub
the
gold
knob
of
his
stick
,
looking
bitterly
at
the
fire
.
It
was
a
bright
fire
,
but
it
made
no
difference
to
the
chill
-
looking
purplish
tint
of
Mrs
.
Waule
’
s
face
,
which
was
as
neutral
as
her
voice
;
having
mere
chinks
for
eyes
,
and
lips
that
hardly
moved
in
speaking
.
"
The
doctors
can
’
t
master
that
cough
,
brother
.
It
’
s
just
like
what
I
have
;
for
I
’
m
your
own
sister
,
constitution
and
everything
.
But
,
as
I
was
saying
,
it
’
s
a
pity
Mrs
.
Vincy
’
s
family
can
’
t
be
better
conducted
.
"
"
Tchah
!
you
said
nothing
o
’
the
sort
.
You
said
somebody
had
made
free
with
my
name
.
"
"
And
no
more
than
can
be
proved
,
if
what
everybody
says
is
true
.
My
brother
Solomon
tells
me
it
’
s
the
talk
up
and
down
in
Middlemarch
how
unsteady
young
Vincy
is
,
and
has
been
forever
gambling
at
billiards
since
home
he
came
.
"
"
Nonsense
!
What
’
s
a
game
at
billiards
?
It
’
s
a
good
gentlemanly
game
;
and
young
Vincy
is
not
a
clodhopper
.
If
your
son
John
took
to
billiards
,
now
,
he
’
d
make
a
fool
of
himself
.
"
"
Your
nephew
John
never
took
to
billiards
or
any
other
game
,
brother
,
and
is
far
from
losing
hundreds
of
pounds
,
which
,
if
what
everybody
says
is
true
,
must
be
found
somewhere
else
than
out
of
Mr
.
Vincy
the
father
’
s
pocket
.
For
they
say
he
’
s
been
losing
money
for
years
,
though
nobody
would
think
so
,
to
see
him
go
coursing
and
keeping
open
house
as
they
do
.
And
I
’
ve
heard
say
Mr
.
Bulstrode
condemns
Mrs
.
Vincy
beyond
anything
for
her
flightiness
,
and
spoiling
her
children
so
.
"
!
"
What
’
s
Bulstrode
to
me
?
I
don
’
t
bank
with
him
.
