Prom that night a change came art * Fk * a ~ Tk exafaefMffe of her spirit seemed compressed into purpose ; the mm mhm abrupt impetaosity of her manner * ub * ided , and the $ * emle 9 t mmd most solicitous tenderness characterized her whole bearing t&marib
her father . She seemed to hare grown at once fin > m the theoeJtelesB girl into the thoughtful woman . Her visits to Branrlon Hall became less frequent . The * old subject' was now seldom allotted to ; once when it was mentioned , a sndden flash of iigrhming from her eyes darted at Sir James , succeeded by a heavy fall of tears , made him doubly objective ' ' after her departure ; to FWaTs
eccentricity . ' The two cousins met to find each other divorced from companionship . Emma quieted into a cold external conventionalist ; Flora , with increased strength of impulse , repressed into £ en £ j » - ness by newly awakened tenderness . It was impossible thai sucft elements should mingle ; and accordingly , to the « rreat delight of the Baronet , there was little interchange between them . But the time came round for the school fete , when rich and poor , far and near , were to mingle together in one of tho ?« e blessed -states of for > getfulness of all party feeling , which sometimes are to be foand at a country festival . The whole affair had originated with Waltw ,
irho had a strong desire to restore some of the otd rames am merry-makings that made a chief part in the enjoyment of the old finglish peasantry . He had endeavoured to influence Sir James to open his park on May-day , hut without effect . This was less annoying to Walter , as the MaT seasoa had set in rainy : it determined him to find some means to indemnity the people for their loss , and in fi . itune to reiv on his own more secure , though less abundant , resources . At last it waus a ^ re ^ tl betw een htm ^ eff and Flora , that when the roses were in blossom , and the cherries ripe , they would open their Irttle domain to 'he children o € tbm village school , anil invite their parents to come and sce then
