Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Freville Chase, Vol. 2 of 2 Fully persuaded that there was something in the background, Elfrida insisted on employing all legitimate means to track the woman of the middling countenance. Police inspectors were confidentially questioned in Ledchester, Lyneham and Exbourne: Bolton and other carriers being observers of local events, reported from the villages. But the result was like a dishonoured cheque; there were no effects. Middling countenances were indeed to be found, and in greater abundance than could be wished; but they were of native growth. Everard, who adhered to his opinion that the mystery was nothing more than a trick to cheat him out of a hundred pounds, took no interest in the search. In the meanwhile Ida was awaiting his reply to the letter that he had not received. Her state of mind would have given cause for anxiety to any intelligent well-wisher, not prejudiced by views peculiar and personal such as those of Lady Dytchley and the Marquis Moncalvo. She was confident, but her confidence included too much. Instead of concentrating itself on Everard, or rather on the alleged fact regarding him, it included separable accidents and, in a manner, pinned her faith on a space of time. Therefore, when the space was narrowing towards its close and the accidents were unfavourable, she grew restless, became introverted and lost the freedom of her soul. Lady Dytchley saw this, and seeing no further than her own point of view, smiled in secret. The Marquis watched it from his own, and told himself to hope.
