hid his own if he took it with him in a corner of the churchyard in
the park察 near the mouldy porch。 He was born in the market´
town察 and so was his young widow。 Her progress in the family
began in the time of the last Sir Leicester察 and originated in the
still´room。
The present representative of the Dedlocks is an excellent
master。 He supposes all his dependants to be utterly bereft of
individual characters察 intentions察 or opinions察 and is persuaded
that he was born to supersede the necessity of their having any。 If
he were to make a discovery to the contrary察he would be simply
stunned!would never recover himself察most likely察except to gasp
and die。 But he is an excellent master still察holding it a part of his
state to be so。 He has a great liking for Mrs Rouncewell察 he says
she is a most respectable察 creditable woman。 He always shakes
hands with her察when he comes down to Chesney Wold察and when
he goes away察and if he were very ill察or if he were knocked down
by accident察or run over察or placed in any situation expressive of a
Dedlock at a disadvantage察he would say if he could speak察 Leave

me and send Mrs Rouncewell here 院feeling his dignity察at such a
pass察safer with her than with anybody else。
Mrs Rouncewell has known trouble。 She has had two sons察 of
whom the younger ran wild察 and went for a soldier察 and never
came back。 Even to this hour察Mrs Rouncewell¨s calm hands lose
their composure when she speaks of him察 and unfolding
themselves from her stomacher察 hover about her in an agitated
manner察as she says察what a likely lad察what a fine lad察what a gay察
good´humoured察 clever lad he was Her second son would have
been provided for at Chesney Wold察 and would have been made
steward in due season察but he took察when he was a schoolboy察to
constructing steam´engines out of saucepans察and setting birds to
draw their own water察with the least possible amount of labour察so
assisting them with artful contrivance of hydraulic pressure察that a
thirsty canary had only察in a literal sense察to put his shoulder to the
wheel and the job was done。 This propensity gave Mrs Rouncewell
great uneasiness。 She felt it察with a mother¨s anguish察to be a move
in the Wat Tyler direction此 well knowing that Sir Leicester had
that general impression of an aptitude for any art to which smoke
and a tall chimney might be considered essential。 But the doomed
young rebel otherwise a mild youth察 and very persevering察
showing no sign of grace as he got older察 but察 on the contrary察
constructing a model of a power´loom察 she was fain察 with many
tears察 to mention his backslidings to the baronet。 ^Mrs
Rouncewell察院said Sir Leicester察 I can never consent to argue察as
you know察with any one on any subject。 You had better get rid of
your boy察 you had better get him into some Works。 The iron
country farther north is察 I suppose察 the congenial direction for a
boy with these tendencies。 ̄ Farther north he went察 and farther

north he grew up察 and if Sir Leicester Dedlock ever saw him察
when he came to Chesney Wold to visit his mother察 or ever
thought of him afterwards察it is certain that he only regarded him
as one of a body of some odd thousand conspirators察swarthy and
grim察 who were in the habit of turning out by torchlight察 two or
three nights in the week察for unlawful purposes。
Nevertheless Mrs Rouncewell¨s son has察in the course of nature
and art察 grown up察 and established himself察 and married察 and
called unto him Mrs Rouncewell¨s grandson察who察being out of his
apprenticeship察and home from a journey in far countries察whither
he was sent to enlarge his knowledge and complete his
preparations for the venture of this life察stands leaning against the
chimney´piece this very day察 in Mrs Rouncewell¨s room at
Chesney Wold。
^And察again and again察 I am glad to see you察 Watt And察 once
again察I am glad to see you察Watt 院says Mrs Rouncewell。 ^You are
a fine young fellow。 You are like your poor uncle George。 Ah 院Mrs
Rouncewell¨s hands unquiet察as usual察on this reference。
^They say I am like my father察grandmother。 ̄
^Like him察 also察 my dear察but most like your poor uncle
George And your dear father。 ̄ Mrs Rouncewell folds her hands
again。 ^He is well拭院
^Thriving察grandmother察in every way。 ̄
^I am thankful 院Mrs Rouncewell is fond of her son察but has a
plaintive feeling towards him!much as if he were a very
honourable soldier察who had gone over to the enemy。
^He is quite happy拭院says she。
^Quite。 ̄
^I am thankful So察he has brought you up to follow in his ways察

and has sent you into foreign countries and the like拭 Well察 he
knows best。 There may be a world beyond Chesney Wold that I
don¨t understand。 Though I am not young察either。 And I have seen
a quantity of good company too 院
^Grandmother察院 says the young man察 changing the subject察
^what a very pretty girl that was察I found with you just now。 You
called her Rosa拭院
^Yes察child。 She is daughter of a widow in the village。 Maids are
so hard to teach察now´a´days察that I have put her about me young。
She¨s an apt scholar察 and will do well。 She shows the house
already察very pretty。 She lives with me察at my table here。 ̄
^I hope I have not driven her away拭院
^She supposes we have family affairs to speak about察I dare say。
She is very modest。 It is a fine quality in a young woman。 And
scarcer察院 says Mrs Rouncewell察 expanding her stomacher to its
utmost limits察 than it formerly was 院
The young man inclines his head察 in acknowledgment of the
precepts of experience。 Mrs Rouncewell listens。
^Wheels 院says she。 They have long been audible to the younger
ears of her companion。 ^What wheels on such a day as this察 for
gracious sake拭院
After a short interval a tap at the door。 ^Come in 院A dark´eyed察
dark´haired察shy village beauty comes in!so fresh in her rosy and
yet delicate bloom察 that the drops of rain察 which have beaten on
her hair察look like the dew upon a flower fresh gathered。
^What company is this察Rosa拭院says Mrs Rouncewell。
^It¨s two young men in a gig察 ma¨am察 who want to see the
house!yes察and if you please察I told them so 院in quick reply to a
gesture of dissent from the housekeeper。 ^I went to the hall door察
