Among the first of the notabilities to turn their faces northward are Sir Julian and Lady Twombley, who will spend the autumn at Drumdurris Castle as the guests of their nephew, Lord Drumdurris.”

Mr. Joseph Lebanon.
Fan, what’s that to us! Lady Twombley, we entertain a not unreasonable desiah to spend our autumn at Drumdurris Castle.
Lady Twombley.
Mr. Joseph Lebanon.
