Poor and Proud

CHAPTER XX
12/15

One day, when she had improved so much as to be able to bear the fatigue of a long conversation, Mrs.
Gordon, who had thus far declined to discuss any exciting topics with the invalid proposed to have everything explained.

Each had a very long story to tell; but as the reader already knows Mrs.Redburn's history, I shall only briefly narrate that of Mrs.Gordon and the Guthrie family, after the departure of the former.
Mr.Guthrie, the father of both, died two years after the flight of Margaret--Mrs.Redburn--when of course there was a large property to be divided.

Diligent search was made for Margaret in America but her husband had declared to some person in Liverpool that he had an engagement in Montreal.

This place was thoroughly canvassed, but without success.

No trace of the runaways could be discovered.
