MISS BADSWORTH, M.F.H. 293 



" Of course, aunt, if that is your decision, the law must 

 take its course," Victor said loftily. 



** I suppose so ; but from what your Uncle Charles and — 

 others say, there is no great certainty about it." 



" I suppose you mean Morgan." 



" Does Mr. Morgan say that ? " Miss Badsworth asked 

 sweetly. 



Victor didn't answer ; he rose and departed, as his aunt 

 thought, rather rudely.
