Chapter 8. Impossible to Deny

Watching Lady Madalene push her dolls around in her doll buggy was a delight the Ladies Colton indulged in each morning after breakfast. The young Viscount, Edmund, seemed more than relieved to not have this responsibility. He preferred to meander about the conservatory or explore the stable and carriage house after breakfast or take an apple as a treat and ride Jasper, his horse. Within a few days, Lady Selina soon found it equally enjoyable to follow the Ladies Colton at least for a few turns in the garden. It was sunny enough that they each carried a parasol, with the exception of Madalene. With Nurse Lottie’s help, Georgiana made sure her youngest charge wore a lace trimmed, linen, summery bonnet, securely tied beneath her chin. She was thankful Molly or Lottie usually had it ready on one of the hooks in the cloak room near the entry just outside the dining room. Little girls seldom remembered their bonnets.

Nathaniel had not forgotten any of the tours he had promised her. She was his private audience for viewing the school room the very next day, as promised. He had even sent a scullery and parlor maid up to the third floor to be sure everything was clean and in order. On the one side of the long gallery room, there were six custom sized tall wooden desks and tall chairs with backs and arms for pupils, in two rows of three each.

Three recently cleaned and shiny windows with not a single fingerprint or smudge let in plenty of sunlight and the windows were open a little to let in the fresh air. The floor was wooden with no carpet but swept and scrubbed clean, the smell of soap still lingering. A project table with eight chairs about it claimed the other side of the room. A small trunk with a few interesting toys sat in a corner not too far from the project table, probably meant to serve as a reward for younger pupils who behaved well in school. She was delighted to find a laboratory table held a telescope and a microscope near one of the windows. Several comfortable cushioned reading chairs created a rather cozy area to read with a table, oil lamp and candles. All that seemed missing was perhaps a rug for added warmth and comfort to make the reading nook complete.
