"She can go from hence in a carriage—a carriage from the inn," Mrs. Orme had said.
"Certainly, certainly; a carriage from the inn; yes. But in the evening, ma'am?"
"When the trial is over?" said Mrs. Orme, inquiring from him his meaning.
"We can hardly expect that it shall be over in one day, ma'am. She will continue to be on bail, and can return home. I will see that she is not annoyed as she leaves the town."
"Annoyed?" said Mrs. Orme.
"By the people I mean."
"Will there be anything of that, sir?" she asked, turning pale at the idea. "I shall be with her, you know."
"Through the whole affair, ma'am?"
"Yes, through the whole affair."
"They'll want to have a look at her of course; but,—Mrs. Orme, we'll see that you are not annoyed. Yes; she had better come back home the first day. The expense won't be much; will it?"
