Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1921 edition. Excerpt: .shall never let him speak to me again. I dislike him too much. Catherine gave a long, low sigh; she tried to stifle it, for she had made up her mind that it was wrong to make a parade of her trouble, and to endeavour to act upon her father by the meretricious aid of emotion. Indeed, she even thought it wrong--in the sense of being inconsiderate--to attempt to act upon his feelings at all; her part was to effect some gentle, gradual change in his intellectual perception of poor Morris's character. But the means of effecting such a change were at present shrouded in mystery, and she felt miserably helpless and hopeless. She had exhausted all arguments, all replies. Her father might have pitied her, and in fact he did so; but he was sure he was right. There is one thing you can tell Mr. Townsend when you see him again, he said: that if you marry without my consent, I don't leave you a farthing of money. That will interest him more than anything else you can tell him. That would be very right, Catherine answered. I ought not in that case to have a farthing of your money. My dear child, the Doctor observed, laughing, your simplicity is touching. Make that remark, in that tone, and with that expression of countenance, to Mr. Townsend, and take a note of his answer. It won't be polite--it will express irritation; and I shall be glad of that, as it will put me in the right; unless, indeed--which is perfectly possible--you should like him the better for being rude to you. He will never be rude to me, said Catherine gently. Tell him what I say, all the same. She looked at her father, and her quiet eyes filled with tears. I think I will see him, then, she murmured, in her timid voice. Exactly as you choose And he went to the. Seller Inventory # CIN0679732292G
