As
for
Cranford
in
general,
it
was
going
on
much
as
usual.
The
Jamieson
and
Hoggins
feud
still
raged,
if
a
feud
it
could
be
called,
when
only
one
side
cared
much
about
it.
Mr
and
Mrs
Hoggins
were
very
happy
together,
and,
like
most
very
happy
people,
quite
ready
to
be
friendly;
indeed,
Mrs
Hoggins
was
really
desirous
to
be
restored
to
Mrs
Jamieson’s
good
graces,
because
of
the
former
intimacy.
But
Mrs
Jamieson
considered
their
very
happiness
an
insult
to
the
Glenmire
family,
to
which
she
had
still
the
honour
to
belong,
and
she
doggedly
refused
and
rejected
every
advance.
Mr
Mulliner,
like
a
faithful
clansman,
espoused
his
mistress’s
side
with
ardour.
If
he
saw
either
Mr
or
Mrs
Hoggins,
he
would
cross
the
street,
and
appear
absorbed
in
the
contemplation
of
life
in
general,
and
his
own
path
in
particular,
until
he
had
passed
them
by.
Miss
Pole
used
to
amuse
herself
with
wondering
what
in
the
world
Mrs
Jamieson
would
do,
if
either
she,
or
Mr
Mulliner,
or
any
other
member
of
her
household
was
taken
ill;
she
could
hardly
have
the
face
to
call
in
Mr
Hoggins
after
the
way
she
had
behaved
to
them.
Miss
Pole
grew
quite
impatient
for
some
indisposition
or
accident
to
befall
Mrs
Jamieson
or
her
dependents,
in
order
that
Cranford
might
see
how
she
would
act
under
the
perplexing
circumstances.
