Lady Susan

XXXIII. Lady Susan To Mrs. Johnson

Upper Seymour Street.

This eclaircissement is rather provoking. How unlucky that you should have been from home! I thought myself sure of you at seven! I am undismayed however. Do not torment yourself with fears on my account; depend on it, I can make my story good with Reginald. Mainwaring is just gone; he brought me the news of his wife`s arrival. Silly woman, what does she expect by such manoeuvres.? Yet I wish she had stayed quietly at Langford. Reginald will be a little enraged at first, but by to-morrow`s dinner, everything will be well again.

Adieu!

S. V.
