CHAPTER II.
Hambleton of Lynn.

The Hambletons of Lynn had not
distinguished themselves. in late gen.
erations at least. by remarkable deeds,
though their department was such
as to imply that they could If they
would. They frankly regarded them
selves as the elect of earth, If not
of Heaven, always, however, with a
becoming modesty. Since 1886 the
family had pieced out its existence in
the New World, tenaciously clinging
to many of its old-country habits. It
had kept the "b" in the family lame,
for instance: it had kept the name
itself out OF trade. and it had In
dulged its love of country life at the
expense of more than one Hambleton
fortune
A daughter-in-law was once reported
as saying that it would have been
a good thing II some Hambleton had
embarked in trade. since in that case
they might have been saved from de-
voting themselves exclusively to an

first cars. They caused many rum

But the pipe doesn't appeal to her 80
much any more, and for the last few

is tobacco or something else it is a
fact that the old woman has not suf-
