The coming of Mrs. Greenow at this very moment was a great comfort to Kate. Without her she would hardly have known how to bear herself with her uncle and her brother. As it was, they were all restrained by something of the courtesy which strangers are bound to show to each other.

"So you are George," said Mrs. Greenow, putting out her hand and smiling.
"Yes; I'm George," said he.
