Emmy
was
very
glad
in
her
heart
to
think
that
she
had
written
to
her
husband
before
she
read
or
knew
of
that
letter
of
George
's
.
"
I
knew
it
all
along
,
"
William
said
;
"
but
could
I
use
that
weapon
against
the
poor
fellow
's
memory
?
It
was
that
which
made
me
suffer
so
when
you
--
"
"
Never
speak
of
that
day
again
,
"
Emmy
cried
out
,
so
contrite
and
humble
that
William
turned
off
the
conversation
by
his
account
of
Glorvina
and
dear
old
Peggy
O'Dowd
,
with
whom
he
was
sitting
when
the
letter
of
recall
reached
him
.
"
If
you
had
n't
sent
for
me
,
"
he
added
with
a
laugh
,
"
who
knows
what
Glorvina
's
name
might
be
now
?
"
At
present
it
is
Glorvina
Posky
(
now
Mrs.
Major
Posky
)
;
she
took
him
on
the
death
of
his
first
wife
,
having
resolved
never
to
marry
out
of
the
regiment
.
Lady
O'Dowd
is
also
so
attached
to
it
that
,
she
says
,
if
anything
were
to
happen
to
Mick
,
bedad
she
'd
come
back
and
marry
some
of
'em
.
But
the
Major-General
is
quite
well
and
lives
in
great
splendour
at
O'Dowdstown
,
with
a
pack
of
beagles
,
and
(
with
the
exception
of
perhaps
their
neighbour
,
Hoggarty
of
Castle
Hoggarty
)
he
is
the
first
man
of
his
county
.
Her
Ladyship
still
dances
jigs
,
and
insisted
on
standing
up
with
the
Master
of
the
Horse
at
the
Lord
Lieutenant
's
last
ball
.
Both
she
and
Glorvina
declared
that
Dobbin
had
used
the
latter
SHEAMFULLY
,
but
Posky
falling
in
,
Glorvina
was
consoled
,
and
a
beautiful
turban
from
Paris
appeased
the
wrath
of
Lady
O'Dowd
.
When
Colonel
Dobbin
quitted
the
service
,
which
he
did
immediately
after
his
marriage
,
he
rented
a
pretty
little
country
place
in
Hampshire
,
not
far
from
Queen
's
Crawley
,
where
,
after
the
passing
of
the
Reform
Bill
,
Sir
Pitt
and
his
family
constantly
resided
now
.
All
idea
of
a
Peerage
was
out
of
the
question
,
the
Baronet
's
two
seats
in
Parliament
being
lost
.
He
was
both
out
of
pocket
and
out
of
spirits
by
that
catastrophe
,
failed
in
his
health
,
and
prophesied
the
speedy
ruin
of
the
Empire
.
Lady
Jane
and
Mrs.
Dobbin
became
great
friends
--
there
was
a
perpetual
crossing
of
pony-chaises
between
the
Hall
and
the
Evergreens
,
the
Colonel
's
place
(
rented
of
his
friend
Major
Ponto
,
who
was
abroad
with
his
family
)
.
Her
Ladyship
was
godmother
to
Mrs.
Dobbin
's
child
,
which
bore
her
name
,
and
was
christened
by
the
Rev.
James
Crawley
,
who
succeeded
his
father
in
the
living
:
and
a
pretty
close
friendship
subsisted
between
the
two
lads
,
George
and
Rawdon
,
who
hunted
and
shot
together
in
the
vacations
,
were
both
entered
of
the
same
college
at
Cambridge
,
and
quarrelled
with
each
other
about
Lady
Jane
's
daughter
,
with
whom
they
were
both
,
of
course
,
in
love
.
A
match
between
George
and
that
young
lady
was
long
a
favourite
scheme
of
both
the
matrons
,
though
I
have
heard
that
Miss
Crawley
herself
inclined
towards
her
cousin
.
Mrs.
Rawdon
Crawley
's
name
was
never
mentioned
by
either
family
.
There
were
reasons
why
all
should
be
silent
regarding
her
.
For
wherever
Mr.
Joseph
Sedley
went
,
she
travelled
likewise
,
and
that
infatuated
man
seemed
to
be
entirely
her
slave
.
The
Colonel
's
lawyers
informed
him
that
his
brother-in-law
had
effected
a
heavy
insurance
upon
his
life
,
whence
it
was
probable
that
he
had
been
raising
money
to
discharge
debts
.
He
procured
prolonged
leave
of
absence
from
the
East
India
House
,
and
indeed
,
his
infirmities
were
daily
increasing
.
On
hearing
the
news
about
the
insurance
,
Amelia
,
in
a
good
deal
of
alarm
,
entreated
her
husband
to
go
to
Brussels
,
where
Jos
then
was
,
and
inquire
into
the
state
of
his
affairs
.
The
Colonel
quitted
home
with
reluctance
(
for
he
was
deeply
immersed
in
his
History
of
the
Punjaub
which
still
occupies
him
,
and
much
alarmed
about
his
little
daughter
,
whom
he
idolizes
,
and
who
was
just
recovering
from
the
chicken-pox
)
and
went
to
Brussels
and
found
Jos
living
at
one
of
the
enormous
hotels
in
that
city
.
Mrs.
Crawley
,
who
had
her
carriage
,
gave
entertainments
,
and
lived
in
a
very
genteel
manner
,
occupied
another
suite
of
apartments
in
the
same
hotel
.
The
Colonel
,
of
course
,
did
not
desire
to
see
that
lady
,
or
even
think
proper
to
notify
his
arrival
at
Brussels
,
except
privately
to
Jos
by
a
message
through
his
valet
.
Jos
begged
the
Colonel
to
come
and
see
him
that
night
,
when
Mrs.
Crawley
would
be
at
a
soiree
,
and
when
they
could
meet
alone
.
