Rh Lady Anne remembered that it was Georgiana, the very girl she had injured, who got her out of that scrape, so she said, very graciously, "Well, the Palmers have said, 'unless good news arrives, they will not come,' so, in that case, you shall go to the old lady, provided you persuade Mr. Palmer to come here, for I remember the marquis was quite taken with him, and he will be sure to inquire for him." This arrangement was a great relief to poor Georgiana, who doubted not her influence over Mr. Palmer, little foreseeing the different engagement awaiting them both. But we must now turn to other parties connected with our story.
