Doctor Trevor, the physician who had been called in to Mr.Gray and Harry Gregson, had married a sister of his.

And that was all my lady knew about the Gibson family.

But who was Bessy?
That mystery and secret came out, too, in process of time.

Miss Galindo had been to Warwick, some years before I arrived at Hanbury, on some kind of business or shopping, which can only be transacted in a county town.
There was an old Westmoreland connection between her and Mrs.Trevor, though I believe the latter was too young to have been made aware of her brother's offer to Miss Galindo at the time when it took place; and such affairs, if they are unsuccessful, are seldom spoken about in the gentleman's family afterwards.

But the Gibsons and Galindos had been county neighbours too long for the connection not to be kept up between two members settled far away from their early homes.
