Mrs. Knowle told, not nt the time. I;

Vos, this was what they said of him, t
11-uatiir d portion of ids friends; ho
ince the otter of tho baronetcy, a crtu
awning pr.de of race, tho truly Kngli
rish to found a family, had coin- into t
lead of grave -lohn llowerbnnk; that r
ordmgly he had, in hi grave and prac

coked round on all his eligible young la

Hut when, after a year the baronet

ippearcd no heir lo llmse honors, 11
iouhtedly Kr John was very tnu h disn

Marriage must bo lie iron or bell. N
it first, perhaps, for tune so tons ni
