In
our
pattens
we
picked
our
way
home
with
extra
care
that
night,
so
refined
and
delicate
were
our
perceptions
after
drinking
tea
with
“my
lady.”
CHAPTER
IX.
SIGNOR
BRUNONI
SOON
after
the
events
of
which
I
gave
an
account
in
my
last
paper,
I
was
summoned
home
by
my
father’s
illness;
and
for
a
time
I
forgot,
in
anxiety
about
him,
to
wonder
how
my
dear
friends
at
Cranford
were
getting
on,
or
how
Lady
Glenmire
could
reconcile
herself
to
the
dulness
of
the
long
visit
which
she
was
still
paying
to
her
sister-in-law,
Mrs
Jamieson.
When
my
father
grew
a
little
stronger
I
accompanied
him
to
the
seaside,
so
that
altogether
I
seemed
banished
from
Cranford,
and
was
deprived
of
the
opportunity
of
hearing
any
chance
intelligence
of
the
dear
little
town
for
the
greater
part
of
that
year.
