"And you don't mean to set out at an uncouth hour to-morrow?"
"Not at all—two or three o'clock."
"But I shall be jealous," said Lucy. "Do you not ask me to come too?"
"By all means; bring all the ladies who like angling. Lady James, will you answer for Miss Campbell?"
"I shall bring Margaret, I know;" said Harriet quickly.
"Do—if Miss Capel will come;" said he with a peculiar smile.
"I shall ask no questions;" said Harriet coolly. "I shall pack her up in a band-box, and take her; though she cannot angle like some people!"
"No; she cannot angle," said Mr. Haveloc; laughing at the angry expression in Harriet's face.
"Ah! you think yourselves, too deep for me;" said Harriet turning and walking up-stairs; "but I would have you look sharp; for I know the symptoms."
