¡¡¡¡ "Well, now you shall hear something that will surprise you. But first of all, you must tell me the name of the young lady I am going to talk about. That young lady, you know, that we have all been so concerned for. The Miss Musgrove, that all this has been happening to. Her Christian name: I always forget her Christian name." ¡¡¡¡ Anne had been ashamed to appear to comprehend so soon as she really did; but now she could safely suggest the name of "Louisa." ¡¡¡¡ "Ay, ay, Miss Louisa Musgrove, that is the name. I wish young ladies had not such a number of fine Christian names. I should never be out if they were all Sophys, or something of that sort. Well, this Miss Louisa, we all thought, you know, was to marry Frederick. He was courting her week after week. The only wonder was, what they could be waiting for, till the business at Lyme came; then, indeed, it was clear enough that they must wait till her brain was set to right. But even then there was something odd in their way of going on. Instead of staying at Lyme, he went off to Plymouth, and then he went off to see Edward. When we came back from Minehead he was gone down to Edward's, and there he has been ever since. We have seen nothing of him since November. Even Sophy could not understand it. But now, the matter has take the strangest turn of all; for this young lady, the same Miss Musgrove, instead of being to marry Frederick, is to marry James Benwick. You know James Benwick." ¡¡¡¡ "A little. I am a little acquainted with Captain Benwick." ¡¡¡¡ "Well, she is to marry him. Nay, most likely they are married already, for I do not know what they should wait for." ¡¡¡¡ "I thought Captain Benwick a very pleasing young man," said Anne, "and I understand that he bears an excellent character."
