Excerpt from The Argosy, Vol. 22: July to December, 1876The music and the wax-lights, the flowers and the evergreens rendered the rooms at Sir Philip Stane's a scene of enchantment. At least it seemed so to Alice Raynor as she entered upon it. Something that you might read about in fairyland, but scarcely see in this prosaic life. William Stane stood near the door, and caught her hand as she and Charles were following their father and mother.The first dance is for me, remember, Alice, he whispered. And her pretty cheeks flushed and a half conscious smile of assent parted her lips, as she passed on to Lady Stane.Lady Stane, a stout and kindly woman in emerald green, received her kindly. She suspected that this young lady might become her daughter-in-law some day or another, and she looked at her more critically than She had ever looked before. Alice could bear the inspection to-night: her new white dress was beautiful; her face was charming, her manner was modest and graceful. The most lady like girl in the room, mentally decided Lady Stane, and no doubt will have a fair purse of money. William might do worse.William Stane thought he might do very much worse. T here's no doubt he was truly attached to Alice. Not perhaps in the wild and ardent manner which some lovers own to all natures are not capable of that: but he did love her, and hoped that when he married it was she who would be his wife. He was not ready to marry yet. He was progressing in his profession, but with the proverbial slowness that is said to attend the advancement of barristers; and he did not mean to speak just at present. Meanwhile he was quite content to make love tacitly; and he felt sure that his intentions were understood.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Argosy, Vol. 52: July to December, 1891Janet's love for Captain George was as yet a timid, callow fledgeling that could do nothing but flutter in the nest where it was born. Very pretty to look at, but not to be looked at too Often, for fear lest its hiding-place should be found out and some rude hand should take it unawares. Her love for Sister Agnes was of a different texture, and made up the real quiet happiness of her life. She felt like a plant that has been lifted out of the cold corner in which it has found the elements of a stunted growth and set to bask in a flood of gracious sunshine. In such cases the result is not difficult to foretell. The plant grows more and more beautiful under the sweet influence that has been brought to bear upon it, and repays the sunshine with its most fragrant blossoms. In such-like was Janet's young life nourished and enriched by the love that existed between her and Sister Agnes. Her inner life developed itself unconsciously her heart grew in wisdom, and all the finer qualities of her nature began to unfold themselves one by one as delicate leaves unfold themselves in the sun.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Argosy, Vol. 36: July to December, 1883To say that Mrs. Hatherley, and F lossie with her, nearly went out of their minds, is but feebly to describe the height, depth and extent Of their amazed exasperation. Mrs. Hatherley came out in quite a new character, so extraordinary was the activity which she displayed in going from house to house, pouring into the ears of her acquaint auces the various Innuendoes and suggestions concerning Gertrude once conveyed to her by Mrs. Chandos-fane, now Mrs. Burton.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Argosy, Vol. 48: July to December, 1889On his return from his honeymoon almost his first action was to go to the post-office and give directions that for the future all large parcels should be delivered in a large basket which had been received there, and freely commented on, a few days before. Much specula tion as to its probable use had exercised the postmistress, who took as kind and deep an interest in the letters, post-cards and telegrams which passed through her hands as country postmistresses usually do. This basket was duly provided with a padlock and two keys, one of which Mr. Ryot-tempest handed to the postmistress, and one he carefully fastened on his own private bunch.You'll be wanting an extra key for the post-bag now, sir, won't you i' asked the woman, who was anxious to discover on whose behalf this basket was introduced.No, said Mr. Ryot-tempest briefly but be careful that all the letters are sent in it. And when there are parcels send word, and my man shall call for the basket.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Argosy, Vol. 53: January to June, 1892I went up for honours, dear aunt, and gained them. SO I can afford myself a holiday. At which satisfactory information, Lady Pope vouchsafed nothing but an unsatisfactory grunt.The two gentlemen were speedily immersed in college politics, reminiscences to Sir Henry, realities to Arthur Ashley. Sir Henry had never gained university honours, had never tried for them, but he was delighted that Arthur, his presumptive heir, should do so. Sir Henry had been always childless, and this young man, his brother's eldest son, was the present heir to Ashley. Sir Henry had taken to him years ago, and brought him up as such.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
