Mrs, Bolton could not escape her share of these troubles; though she never accused herself for a moment as having had any part in causing them.

Mr. Chantrey's popularity had been a source of great satisfaction and self-applause to her. She had foreseen how useful he would be; what a shining light in this somewhat dark corner of the church. The increasing congregations, and the number of carriages at the church-door, had given her much pleasure.
