My Lady Ludlow

CHAPTER IX
16/29

Miss Galindo could come up to the Hall; she should have a room to herself; she wrote a beautiful hand; and writing would save her eyesight.

"Capability with regard to accounts ?" My lady would answer for that too; and for more than Mr.Horner seemed to think it necessary to inquire about.

Miss Galindo was by birth and breeding a lady of the strictest honour, and would, if possible, forget the substance of any letters that passed through her hands; at any rate, no one would ever hear of them again from her.

"Remuneration ?" Oh! as for that, Lady Ludlow would herself take care that it was managed in the most delicate manner possible.

She would send to invite Miss Galindo to tea at the Hall that very afternoon, if Mr.Horner would only give her ladyship the slightest idea of the average length of time that my lady was to request Miss Galindo to sacrifice to her daily.
