A languid young woman was introduced as Miss Afflint, and in a few minutes the three were in the Glenavelin carriage with the wide glen opening in front.
"Oh, my dear, I hope you will enjoy your visit.

We are quite a small party, for Jack says Glenavelin is far too small to entertain in.

You are fond of the country, aren't you?
And of course the place is very pretty.

There is tennis and golf and fishing; but perhaps you don't like these things?
We are not very well off for neighbours, but we are large enough in number to be sufficient to ourselves.

Don't you think so, Bertha ?" And Lady Manorwater smiled at the third member of the group.
Miss Afflint, a silent girl, smiled back and said nothing.
