ABSTRACT
I found that during my absence the physician had arrived. He was with Lady Aubrey when I entered her chamber, and, by his looks, I perceived that her situation was as dangerous as I had before thought it. After giving directions for the treatment of his patient, and dispatching a servant with a prescription, he quitted the room. Sir Sidney with myselffollowed him to the saloon. Isabella, by a whisper from me, continued with Lady Aubrey; Mrs. Blagden stood sullenly dissatisfied during the physician’s visit; and the scene of mystery seemed opening to a speedy elucidation.
