What
can
they
mean
?
"
asked
Georgy
,
who
did
not
like
these
gentlemen
.
"
I
heard
the
Major
say
to
Mrs.
Crawley
yesterday
,
'
No
,
no
,
Becky
,
you
sha
n't
keep
the
old
buck
to
yourself
.
We
must
have
the
bones
in
,
or
,
dammy
,
I
'll
split
.
'
What
could
the
Major
mean
,
Mamma
?
"
"
Major
!
do
n't
call
him
Major
!
"
Emmy
said
.
"
I
'm
sure
I
ca
n't
tell
what
he
meant
.
"
His
presence
and
that
of
his
friend
inspired
the
little
lady
with
intolerable
terror
and
aversion
.
They
paid
her
tipsy
compliments
;
they
leered
at
her
over
the
dinner-table
.
And
the
Captain
made
her
advances
that
filled
her
with
sickening
dismay
,
nor
would
she
ever
see
him
unless
she
had
George
by
her
side
.
Rebecca
,
to
do
her
justice
,
never
would
let
either
of
these
men
remain
alone
with
Amelia
;
the
Major
was
disengaged
too
,
and
swore
he
would
be
the
winner
of
her
.
A
couple
of
ruffians
were
fighting
for
this
innocent
creature
,
gambling
for
her
at
her
own
table
,
and
though
she
was
not
aware
of
the
rascals
'
designs
upon
her
,
yet
she
felt
a
horror
and
uneasiness
in
their
presence
and
longed
to
fly
.
She
besought
,
she
entreated
Jos
to
go
.
Not
he
.
He
was
slow
of
movement
,
tied
to
his
Doctor
,
and
perhaps
to
some
other
leading-strings
.
At
least
Becky
was
not
anxious
to
go
to
England
.
At
last
she
took
a
great
resolution
--
made
the
great
plunge
.
She
wrote
off
a
letter
to
a
friend
whom
she
had
on
the
other
side
of
the
water
,
a
letter
about
which
she
did
not
speak
a
word
to
anybody
,
which
she
carried
herself
to
the
post
under
her
shawl
;
nor
was
any
remark
made
about
it
,
only
that
she
looked
very
much
flushed
and
agitated
when
Georgy
met
her
,
and
she
kissed
him
,
and
hung
over
him
a
great
deal
that
night
.
She
did
not
come
out
of
her
room
after
her
return
from
her
walk
.
Becky
thought
it
was
Major
Loder
and
the
Captain
who
frightened
her
.
"
She
must
n't
stop
here
,
"
Becky
reasoned
with
herself
.
"
She
must
go
away
,
the
silly
little
fool
.
She
is
still
whimpering
after
that
gaby
of
a
husband
--
dead
(
and
served
right
!
)
these
fifteen
years
.
She
sha
n't
marry
either
of
these
men
.
It
's
too
bad
of
Loder
.
No
;
she
shall
marry
the
bamboo
cane
,
I
'll
settle
it
this
very
night
.
"
So
Becky
took
a
cup
of
tea
to
Amelia
in
her
private
apartment
and
found
that
lady
in
the
company
of
her
miniatures
,
and
in
a
most
melancholy
and
nervous
condition
.
She
laid
down
the
cup
of
tea
.
"
Thank
you
,
"
said
Amelia
.
