“Do let me speak;” I said; “let me have one moment to draw breath and reflect。” I paused—he stood before me; hat in hand; looking posed enough。 I resumed—

“Your mother was my father’s sister?”

“Yes。”

“My aunt; consequently?”

He bowed。

“My uncle John was your uncle John? You; Diana; and Mary are his sister’s children; as I am his brother’s child?”

“Undeniably。”

“You three; then; are my cousins; half our blood on each side flows from the same source?”

“We are cousins; yes。”

I surveyed him。 It seemed I had found a brother: one I could be proud of;—one I could love; and two sisters; whose qualities were such; that; when I knew them but as mere strangers; they had inspired me with genuine affection and admiration。 The two girls; on whom; kneeling down on the wet ground; and looking through the low; latticed window of Moor House kitchen; I had gazed with so bitter a mixture of interest and despair; were my near kinswomen; and the young and stately gentleman who had found me almost dying at his threshold was my blood relation。 Glorious discovery to a lonely wretch! This was wealth indeed!—wealth to the heart!—a mine of pure; genial affections。 This was a blessing; bright; vivid; and exhilarating;—not like the ponderous gift of gold: rich and wele enough in its way; but sobering from its weight。 I now clapped my hands in sudden joy—my pulse bounded; my veins thrilled。

“Oh; I am glad!—I am glad!” I exclaimed。
