ABSTRACT

Such was the incident of the first morning of our arrival in Merionethshire. Another question arose. Mary had heard of several respectable families in our neighbourhood, particularly the Philipses and the Morgans, the female members of which she understood to be agreeable and entertaining; and she was desirous to have intercourse with them. For this purpose it was necessary to go 197in form to our village church, and to have it given out that there were certain days on which Mrs Fleetwood would sit to receive company. In the evening of our first day in Merionethshire, my wife entered on the subject.
