At about three o'clock Frank Greystock was at Fawn Court.

Now it was certainly understood that Mr.Greystock had been told not to come to Fawn Court as long as Lucy Morris was there.

"Dear Mr.Greystock, I'm sure you will take what I say as I mean it," Lady Fawn had whispered to him.

"You know how attached we all are to our dear little Lucy.
Perhaps you know--." There had been more of it; but the meaning of it all was undoubtedly this,--that Frank was not to pay visits to Lucy Morris at Fawn Court.

Now he had come to see his cousin Lizzie Eustace.
On this occasion Lady Fawn, with Amelia and two of the other girls, were out in the carriage.
