1903. Part Two of Two. The novelist Mrs. Humphrey Ward (Mary Arnold
Ward), was the niece of the poet Matthew Arnold, and granddaughter
of Dr. Thomas Arnold, the headmaster of Rugby School who was
immortalized as a character in the novel Tom Brown's Schooldays.
The second volume of Lady Rose's Daughter begins: On the morning
following these events, Warkworth went down to the Isle of Wight to
see his mother. On the journey he thought much of Julie. They had
parted awkwardly the night before. The evening, which had promised
so well, had, after all, lacked finish and point. What on earth had
that tiresome Miss Lawrence wanted with him? They had talked of
Simla and the Moffats. The conversation had gone in spurts, she
looking at him every now and then with eyes that seemed to say more
than her words. All that she had actually said was perfectly
insignificant and trivial. Yet there was something curious in her
manner, and when the time came for him to take his departure she
had bade him a frosty little farewell. See other titles by this
author available from Kessinger Publishing.
