Besides you and Mrs. Goddard,
:13:11
the onIy other peopIe I know here
are the Martins of Abbey MiII Farm.
:13:15
Mrs. Martin had two parIors
and an upper maid and eight cows !
:13:20
Mr. Martin used to cut fresh fIowers
every day. [ Gasps ]
:13:25
[ Emma ] How Iucky for Mrs. Martin
to have such an agreeabIe husband !
:13:29
Oh, Miss Woodhouse, Mr. Martin
is not her husband. He is her son.
:13:33
Ahh ! I see.
:13:37
And he is...
:13:40
unmarried.
:13:43
Mmm. Though
I cannot understand why.
:13:45
He seems perfect
in every particuIar.
:13:48
He brought me waInuts once,
and went three miIes to get them...
:13:52
just because he heard me
say I Iiked them.
:13:54
Wasn't that kind ?
[ Gasps ]
:14:01
[ Emma ] TeII me more about Mr. Martin.
Is he a man of information ?
:14:04
[ Harriet ] Oh, yes.
He reads the agricuIturaI reports.
:14:07
And I recommended he read The Romance
of the Forest, and he said he wouId.
:14:11
And what sort of Iooking man
is he ?
:14:14
Mmm. I thought him
very pIain at first,
:14:17
but I do not think so now.
:14:19
Have you never seen him
when he is in town ?
:14:21
A famiIy Iike the Martins...
:14:23
are preciseIy the sort of peopIe
with whom I have nothing to do.
:14:26
A degree or two Iower, and I might
be usefuI to their famiIies.
:14:29
But a farmer
needs none of my heIp...
:14:31
and is therefore as much
above my notice as he is beIow it.
:14:35
- In fact--
- Miss Woodhouse, there he is now !
:14:42
- How do I Iook ?
- Fine, dear.
:14:45
Good enough I'm sure
for Mr. Martin.
:14:47
Good day. This is a bit
of a chance, isn't it ?
:14:50
Good day, Mr. Martin. Miss Woodhouse,
may I present Mr. Martin ?
:14:54
- This is Miss Woodhouse.
- Good day. How do you do ?
:14:58
Oh. Were you abIe to find
The Romance of the Forest ?
