Here
has
been
little
Mrs
.
Ferrari
,
my
dear
,
in
a
dreadful
state
of
mind
,
inquiring
when
you
would
be
back
.
Her
husband
has
left
Lord
Montbarry
,
without
a
word
of
warning
—
and
nobody
knows
what
has
become
of
him
.
’
Agnes
looked
at
her
in
astonishment
.
’
Are
you
sure
of
what
you
are
saying
?
’
she
asked
.
The
nurse
was
quite
sure
.
’
Why
,
Lord
bless
you
!
the
news
comes
from
the
couriers
’
office
in
Golden
Square
—
from
the
secretary
,
Miss
Agnes
,
the
secretary
himself
!
’
Hearing
this
,
Agnes
began
to
feel
alarmed
as
well
as
surprised
.
It
was
still
early
in
the
evening
.
She
at
once
sent
a
message
to
Mrs
.
Ferrari
,
to
say
that
she
had
returned
.
In
an
hour
more
the
courier
’
s
wife
appeared
,
in
a
state
of
agitation
which
it
was
not
easy
to
control
.
Her
narrative
,
when
she
was
at
last
able
to
speak
connectedly
,
entirely
confirmed
the
nurse
’
s
report
of
it
.
After
hearing
from
her
husband
with
tolerable
regularity
from
Paris
,
Rome
,
and
Venice
,
Emily
had
twice
written
to
him
afterwards
—
and
had
received
no
reply
.
Feeling
uneasy
,
she
had
gone
to
the
office
in
Golden
Square
,
to
inquire
if
he
had
been
heard
of
there
.
The
post
of
the
morning
had
brought
a
letter
to
the
secretary
from
a
courier
then
at
Venice
.
It
contained
startling
news
of
Ferrari
.
His
wife
had
been
allowed
to
take
a
copy
of
it
,
which
she
now
handed
to
Agnes
to
read
.
The
writer
stated
that
he
had
recently
arrived
in
Venice
.
He
had
previously
heard
that
Ferrari
was
with
Lord
and
Lady
Montbarry
,
at
one
of
the
old
Venetian
palaces
which
they
had
hired
for
a
term
.
Being
a
friend
of
Ferrari
,
he
had
gone
to
pay
him
a
visit
.
Ringing
at
the
door
that
opened
on
the
canal
,
and
failing
to
make
anyone
hear
him
,
he
had
gone
round
to
a
side
entrance
opening
on
one
of
the
narrow
lanes
of
Venice
.
Here
,
standing
at
the
door
(
as
if
she
was
waiting
for
him
to
try
that
way
next
)
,
he
found
a
pale
woman
with
magnificent
dark
eyes
,
who
proved
to
be
no
other
than
Lady
Montbarry
herself
.
She
asked
,
in
Italian
,
what
he
wanted
.
He
answered
that
he
wanted
to
see
the
courier
Ferrari
,
if
it
was
quite
convenient
.
She
at
once
informed
him
that
Ferrari
had
left
the
palace
,
without
assigning
any
reason
,
and
without
even
leaving
an
address
at
which
his
monthly
salary
(
then
due
to
him
)
could
be
paid
.
Amazed
at
this
reply
,
the
courier
inquired
if
any
person
had
offended
Ferrari
,
or
quarrelled
with
him
.
The
lady
answered
,
’
To
my
knowledge
,
certainly
not
.
I
am
Lady
Montbarry
;
and
I
can
positively
assure
you
that
Ferrari
was
treated
with
the
greatest
kindness
in
this
house
.
We
are
as
much
astonished
as
you
are
at
his
extraordinary
disappearance
.
If
you
should
hear
of
him
,
pray
let
us
know
,
so
that
we
may
at
least
pay
him
the
money
which
is
due
.
’
After
one
or
two
more
questions
(
quite
readily
answered
)
relating
to
the
date
and
the
time
of
day
at
which
Ferrari
had
left
the
palace
,
the
courier
took
his
leave
.
