And then nothing remains but for Lady Rodney to get through the introduction as calmly as she can, though it is sorely against her will, and the duchess, taking her hand, says something very pretty to her, while the duke looks on with ill-disguised admiration in his face.，"Nolly, you are inventing," says Mrs. Geoffrey, sternly.，"Yes, it is strange why that wall should be different from the others," Mona says, rather glad that he appears interested in something besides herself.
