Excerpt from Rhoda Fleming, Vol. 3 of 3: A Story
Squire Blancove, having business in town, called on his brother at the Bank, asking whether Sir William was at home, with sarcastic emphasis on the title, which smelt to him of commerce. Sir William invited him to dine and sleep at his house that night.
"You will meet Mrs. Lovell, and a Major Waring, a friend of hers, who knew her and her husband in India," said the baronet.
"The deuce I shall," said the Squire, and accepted maliciously.
