FRIDAY, SIX O'CLOCK
This was said by a cruel brother , and heard said by the dearer friends of one , for whom , but a few months ago , every body was apprehensive at the least blast of wind to which she exposed herself ! Betty , it must be owned , has an admirable memory on these occasions . Nothing of this nature is lost by her repetition : even the very air with which she repeats what she hears said , renders it unnecessary to ask , who spoke this or that severe thing . FRIDAY , SIX O'CLOCK . My aunt , who again stays all night , just left me . She came to tell me the result of my friends ' deliberations about me . It is this : Next Wednesday morning they are all to be assembled : to wit , my father , mother , my uncles , herself , and my uncle Hervey ; my brother and sister of course : my good Mrs. Norton is likewise to be admitted : and Dr. Lewen is to be at hand , to exhort me , it seems , if there be occasion : but my aunt is not certain whether he is to be among them , or to tarry till called in .
