Shall
I
write
to
your
brother
--
or
will
you
?
"
asked
Lady
Jane
of
her
husband
,
Sir
Pitt
.
"
I
will
write
,
of
course
,
"
Sir
Pitt
said
,
"
and
invite
him
to
the
funeral
:
it
will
be
but
becoming
.
"
"
And
--
and
--
Mrs.
Rawdon
,
"
said
Lady
Jane
timidly
.
"
Jane
!
"
said
Lady
Southdown
,
"
how
can
you
think
of
such
a
thing
?
"
"
Mrs.
Rawdon
must
of
course
be
asked
,
"
said
Sir
Pitt
,
resolutely
.
"
Not
whilst
I
am
in
the
house
!
"
said
Lady
Southdown
.
"
Your
Ladyship
will
be
pleased
to
recollect
that
I
am
the
head
of
this
family
,
"
Sir
Pitt
replied
.
"
If
you
please
,
Lady
Jane
,
you
will
write
a
letter
to
Mrs.
Rawdon
Crawley
,
requesting
her
presence
upon
this
melancholy
occasion
.
"
"
Jane
,
I
forbid
you
to
put
pen
to
paper
!
"
cried
the
Countess
.
"
I
believe
I
am
the
head
of
this
family
,
"
Sir
Pitt
repeated
;
"
and
however
much
I
may
regret
any
circumstance
which
may
lead
to
your
Ladyship
quitting
this
house
,
must
,
if
you
please
,
continue
to
govern
it
as
I
see
fit
.
"
Lady
Southdown
rose
up
as
magnificent
as
Mrs.
Siddons
in
Lady
Macbeth
and
ordered
that
horses
might
be
put
to
her
carriage
.
If
her
son
and
daughter
turned
her
out
of
their
house
,
she
would
hide
her
sorrows
somewhere
in
loneliness
and
pray
for
their
conversion
to
better
thoughts
.
