![]() ![]() We are now in a sad state no house was ever more altered the whole party are at war, and Manwaring scarcely dares speak to me. I have more than once repented that I did not marry him (Sir James Martin) myself and were he but one degree less contemptibly weak I certainly should: but I must own myself rather romantic in that respect, and that riches only will not satisfy me. I have therefore resolved on placing her at one of the best private schools in town, where I shall have an opportunity of leaving her myself in my way to you. The long illness of her dear father prevented my paying her that attention which duty and affection equally dictated, and I have too much reason to fear that the governess to whose care I consigned her was unequal to the charge. ![]()
