âI knew it.â Turley sounded disgusted. âWeâre going to have to brave the geese. I like my own, but theyâre not friendly to strangers.â
Georgie studied the painting. Everything they needed to locate was in the painting. âLook.â She pointed. âI do not think we need to disturb the geese. The lady is holding a gold feather.â
âWho keeps a gold feather around for people to find, and where are we supposed to discover all these things?â He squinted at the painting. âI havenât seen a cap like that since my great-grandmother wore one.â
It was lovely. The ladyâs face was framed by a pleated sheer linen trimmed in white work with a red ribbon woven through the edge of the main part of the cap. âI have only seen one in paintings.â But where to look for everything on the list? There could only be one place where all of these things could be found. âThe attic.â
Turley glanced at her, surprise writ on his lean face. âYouâre right. I wonder how many attics there are in this house.â
âWeâre not going to find out by standing here.â Georgie took his arm again and started leading him toward the far end of the gallery.
âWhy are you so sure itâs this way?â Although he sounded as if he was objecting, he remained beside her.
âBecause one never accesses the attics via the main staircase. Aside from that, we have a better chance of finding a servant who can direct us to the right attic going this way.â
Georgie had a point. It had always amazed Gavin how women could think of things men never would have. Then again, heâd never had the urge to go rummaging around an attic. But his sister had. Aside from that, he rather liked the way Georgie was managing him. âExcellent idea.â
âThank you.â She granted him a wide smile, and that batting feeling returned to his chest. He hoped he wasnât having heart problems like his father had died of.
They went through the doors at the other end of the gallery and found themselves in an older part of the house. âFrom the way the lady in the painting dressed, we might find what weâre looking for above us.â
She looked around. âI believe you might be correct. Letâs find some stairs.â
They found one pair of stairs, but they only led to rooms filled with old furniture and no trunks. On the way to another door, one of the maids carrying a mop and pail almost bumped into them.
She bobbed a curtsey. âOh, miss, sir, Iâm that sorry, I am.â
âIt was no bother at all,â Georgie said warmly. âWould you by any chance happen to know where we could find the attics with trunks from last century?â
Gavin wasnât at all sure the maid could give them that much information.
âHmm.â The maidâs lips pressed together as if in thought. âThere was a masquerade party a few years ago, and her ladyship was looking in one of the attics.â The woman stopped again. âLet me take ye there, itâs a little hard to find.
