As she was evidently wrapped up in him, that would of course make her more quiet and silent than usual.

I thought she bore up remarkably well, and admired the effort she made to prevent any display of her feeling marring the pleasant time we were having in London." "But how about Mabel, James?
Had we better tell her about this?
You see, if she happens to meet Mrs.Conway she might betray her secret--might run up and address her by her name." "That is certainly a difficulty, my dear; and I don't quite know what to do about it.

What do you think yourself ?" "I think we had better postpone the matter, James, by sending Mabel away for a bit.

You know my sister has asked her several times to go and stay with her on a visit at Bath.

We have never cared to let her go away from us; but I do think now that it will be a good thing for me to write to Harriet, and tell her that if it will be convenient for her to take Mabel, we shall be glad to send her to her for a few months in order that she may take lessons in French and music.
