Well, you can trust me with Mrs. Ellsworth. If she goes on as she began to-night, I'm afraid I shall have to follow your example: 'fold my tent like an Arab, and silently steal away.' Ha, ha! By the by, I dare say she's owing you salary. I'll remind her of it if you like--tell her you asked me. It may help with the trousseau.

Thank you, but my wife won't need to remind Mrs. Ellsworth of her debt, the answer came before Annesley could speak.

And she _will_ be my wife in a day or two at latest. Good-night! Glad to have met you, even if it was an unpromising introduction.
