30 Georgiana, in a few days, had the comfort of seeing Louisa the mother of a sweet child; Lady Anne, in affectionate attendance upon her; and her own invaluable letter, the companion of her journey, which Mr. Penrhyn partook, until she was placed in her uncle's carriage, which was sent to meet her. Lady Anne had, therefore, the satisfaction of proceeding to Brighton unencumbered by a single daughter, immediately after she had received the good news she most desired, that Mrs. Glentworth had presented her husband with a young Roman as his heir. The circumstances surrounding her were therefore, on the whole, extremely pleasant; for it cannot be supposed she had much sympathy for the Countess of Rotheles's mortification, and she relied on the good offices of Georgiana for the restoration of her uncle's kindness and allowance, the former being of little importance, if unaccompanied by the latter.
