Excerpt from Honour's Worth, or the Cost of a Vow, Vol. 2 of 2: A Novel Sir Philip smiled ominously over the eager letters and observed that it was lucky Hermione had so much money she really did not know what to do with it. Lady Clinton sent exquisite designs for cottages, and said, with a little unnecessary warmth, that men always thought they knew everything, and what better could Hermione do with the money she drew from the estate than put it back again? "And I am sure, Phil, if lone does care for such dry things as drains it is a mercy!" "Very dry, my dear, and don't they absorb a good deal of money? that's all!" "Well, it's money well sunk!" "Sunk, indeed! and deep, deep, deep." "Phil, you are so disagreeable!" "I'll tell you what, Dor, I shall go over and look after Master Bob, soon." "Oh, do, and take me, too!" "I wonder how you will get on with old Mrs. Match? Such a name! Really Miss St. John might have had a little more consideration for our ears, " he said, laughing. "If Robert only grows a little tinder the whole concern will blow up." "What an atrocious, vulgar joke!" said Lady Clinton. "So had, I won't laugh at you. Ah! I see Mr. Crosbie talking to Gladys, they will come in directly, I suppose." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
