"Dearest Becky, a letter from Jos
arrived from India this morning...
:44:32
filled with regrets
about a certain person."
:44:36
Has Miss Sharp
taken to Mayfair?
:44:42
She seems quite at home
in her new life.
:44:45
I do not doubt it.
:44:47
I had thought her
a mere social climber.
:44:50
I see now
she's a mountaineer.
:44:57
"I should tell him, dear Becky,
:44:59
"he has missed his chance
for his goddess has acquired
other suitors.
:45:03
Your loving friend,
Amelia Sedley. '"
:45:16
Aahhh.
:45:19
This one's for you.
It's from Mr. Pitt.
Read it.
:45:27
"Dear Aunt,
I have both happy
and sad news to relay.
:45:31
"The good news
is that I'm married.
:45:33
LadyJane Sheepshanks has done me
the honor of becoming my wife."
:45:37
Well, no great surprise there.
:45:39
Well, she's a nice enough girl.
:45:41
Although, I don't envy him
his mother-in-law.
:45:43
What's the bad news?
:45:46
"I am sorry to tell you
that my stepmother, Lady Crawley,
has gone to a better place."
:45:51
After Queen's Crawley,
almost anywhere's a better place.
:45:53
Come on!
The best thing for you, my girl,
would be...
:45:58
No, no. Too strict.
