Upper Seymour St.

This Eclaircissement is rather provoking. How unlucky that you should have been from home! I thought myself sure of you at 7. I am undismayed, however. Do not torment yourself with fears on my account; depend on it, I can make my story good with Reginald. Manwaring is just gone; he brought me the news of his wife’s arrival. Silly woman, what does she expect by such Manoeuvres? Yet I wish she had staid quietly at Langford.

Reginald will be a little enraged at first, but by Tomorrow’s Dinner everything will be well again.

Adieu.
