Then, turning quietly to Rodney, "I have not the pleasure of your acquaintance, sir," he says, gravely; "but I entreat you to take Miss Scully safely back to the Farm without delay." "If it is too much for you, darling, say so," whispers he; "or shall I go with you?" "Mrs. Geoffrey Rodney, would have been more correct. You forget your husband is the youngest son.
