He hsd st first reiused to take Percivel’s greet expectations into consider. stion st sil. ; but when this invitation come iron the old Baronet he had visibly thawed, end even held out it hope that he might not now insist upon seeing Perclvcl’e ledger, setting forth thst.he hsd received in (see, etc., at leest £500syeer, before he would ‘giv_e consent to his doughterjs Anecrrisge. _ ‘ Most young men would have jumped at such an offer, nor was Percival himself by any means blind to its possible advantages ; but he was a man of that disposition which. in poor people, is called obstinacy. in persons of moderate means firmness, and in rich people determination of character. Thanks to nobody but himself, he was surely but slowly making his way in the world. and he was not disposed to barter his independence. even for the reversibn of the iamily estate. This was not entailed upon him, but it would have been contrary to all traditions of the house with two f’a that cousin Geoil'rey should leave it to any other person than the natural heir. The young man knew. in fact, that unless he gave his kin-man some grave cause oi offence, he would one day reign in his stead. Would it not be better, therefore, as he had not an idea in common with the old Squire, that they should keep apart, so that no offence could be given by him? Percival certainly did not wish to go toDownshire. It was November, and, since he was no sportsman, be greatly preicrred London at that season to the country. J net now.lndeed. he preferred it at all seasons, from the circumstance that it contained. in Gloucester Place, a young lady called Mary Blake, whose name it was his intention to change to Fendall (with one F) as soon as his income had become sufficient for him to ma_rry upon it. To the young man himself this relaxation oi Mr. Blake's proviso gave much less satieiaciion than that gentleman had antici- pated. In his own mind he was persuaded that the match would be disagreeable to air Geoffrey, and render his expectations even less promising than beiore; and this was one oi the reasons that made him incline to be very dutiiul to his venerable cousin at a distance. and through the medium oi the poet-office. He did not like the old gentle- man; he had resented the coldness he had shown to his iather. and he did not eppre~ ciete the overtures now made to him, which he thoroughly understood were not owing to any personal regard. but only because circum- stances had mede him the sole surviving member oi the house oi two i‘s. At the same time he was much too sensible to throw away the brilliantprospecte which had thus uniold- ed themselves to his view, ii he could retain them with sell-respect and without much inconvenience.

The long line which hadmaved ae directly as a pawn in cheee tor so many generations had at last failed. and the auc- oeaelon was going aelant; nay, even zigzag â€"like the lrnight'e moveâ€"to a eecond cousin, young Percival Fendall, ot Lincoln’s Inn. barrister at~law. Hie iather had aub- aieted on a very moderate property. the income iron: which had been in no way aupplemented by the head oi the iamily and had bequeathed it in a reduced condition to hie aon. The former had discovered by bitter experience that the fact of hie name being spelt with two i’e did not enhance it: financial value at the back of a bill. While the latter was seriously thinking of discarding the peculiarity altogether ea an aflectatlon out at which nothing had ever come but ridicule, when suddenly old Geoffrey. acting under advice (not legal. but medical), awoke to the (act oi nia heir-pneumptlve’a existence. He wrote from Downahire with his own hand to invite Percival to Fendall Court. ‘ If you live in Downehire and do not know the i t iendella 01 i t leudell Oourt, you are unknown indeed. The circumstance of their name being spelt with two little i's and pro- nounced Fendall. stamps it with a peculiar aristocracy.

The possession oi a name that nobody can pronounce without instruc- tion is also obviously a great inheritance and in this case it was the more valuable. since there is no record at a i t iendell 01 Down- ehire having been distinguished in any other way.
