Feeling and sensitivity
The
family
of
Dashwood
had
long
been
settled
in
Sussex
.
Their
estate
was
large
,
and
their
residence
was
at
Norland
Park
,
in
the
centre
of
their
property
,
where
,
for
many
generations
,
they
had
lived
in
so
respectable
a
manner
as
to
engage
the
general
good
opinion
of
their
surrounding
acquaintance
.
The
late
owner
of
this
estate
was
a
single
man
,
who
lived
to
a
very
advanced
age
,
and
who
for
many
years
of
his
life
,
had
a
constant
companion
and
housekeeper
in
his
sister
.
But
her
death
,
which
happened
ten
years
before
his
own
,
produced
a
great
alteration
in
his
home
;
for
to
supply
her
loss
,
he
invited
and
received
into
his
house
the
family
of
his
nephew
Mr
.
Henry
Dashwood
,
the
legal
inheritor
of
the
Norland
estate
,
and
the
person
to
whom
he
intended
to
bequeath
it
.
In
the
society
of
his
nephew
and
niece
,
and
their
children
,
the
old
Gentleman
’
s
days
were
comfortably
spent
.
His
attachment
to
them
all
increased
.
The
constant
attention
of
Mr
.
and
Mrs
.
Henry
Dashwood
to
his
wishes
,
which
proceeded
not
merely
from
interest
,
but
from
goodness
of
heart
,
gave
him
every
degree
of
solid
comfort
which
his
age
could
receive
;
and
the
cheerfulness
of
the
children
added
a
relish
to
his
existence
.
By
a
former
marriage
,
Mr
.
Henry
Dashwood
had
one
son
:
by
his
present
lady
,
three
daughters
.
The
son
,
a
steady
respectable
young
man
,
was
amply
provided
for
by
the
fortune
of
his
mother
,
which
had
been
large
,
and
half
of
which
devolved
on
him
on
his
coming
of
age
.
By
his
own
marriage
,
likewise
,
which
happened
soon
afterwards
,
he
added
to
his
wealth
.
To
him
therefore
the
succession
to
the
Norland
estate
was
not
so
really
important
as
to
his
sisters
;
for
their
fortune
,
independent
of
what
might
arise
to
them
from
their
father
’
s
inheriting
that
property
,
could
be
but
small
.
Their
mother
had
nothing
,
and
their
father
only
seven
thousand
pounds
in
his
own
disposal
;
for
the
remaining
moiety
of
his
first
wife
’
s
fortune
was
also
secured
to
her
child
,
and
he
had
only
a
life
-
interest
in
it
.
The
old
gentleman
died
:
his
will
was
read
,
and
like
almost
every
other
will
,
gave
as
much
disappointment
as
pleasure
.
He
was
neither
so
unjust
,
nor
so
ungrateful
,
as
to
leave
his
estate
from
his
nephew
;
—
but
he
left
it
to
him
on
such
terms
as
destroyed
half
the
value
of
the
bequest
.
Mr
.
Dashwood
had
wished
for
it
more
for
the
sake
of
his
wife
and
daughters
than
for
himself
or
his
son
;
—
but
to
his
son
,
and
his
son
’
s
son
,
a
child
of
four
years
old
,
it
was
secured
,
in
such
a
way
,
as
to
leave
to
himself
no
power
of
providing
for
those
who
were
most
dear
to
him
,
and
who
most
needed
a
provision
by
any
charge
on
the
estate
,
or
by
any
sale
of
its
valuable
woods
.
The
whole
was
tied
up
for
the
benefit
of
this
child
,
who
,
in
occasional
visits
with
his
father
and
mother
at
Norland
,
had
so
far
gained
on
the
affections
of
his
uncle
,
by
such
attractions
as
are
by
no
means
unusual
in
children
of
two
or
three
years
old
;
an
imperfect
articulation
,
an
earnest
desire
of
having
his
own
way
,
many
cunning
tricks
,
and
a
great
deal
of
noise
,
as
to
outweigh
all
the
value
of
all
the
attention
which
,
for
years
,
he
had
received
from
his
niece
and
her
daughters
.
He
meant
not
to
be
unkind
,
however
,
and
,
as
a
mark
of
his
affection
for
the
three
girls
,
he
left
them
a
thousand
pounds
a
-
piece
.
Mr
.
Dashwood
’
s
disappointment
was
,
at
first
,
severe
;
but
his
temper
was
cheerful
and
sanguine
;
and
he
might
reasonably
hope
to
live
many
years
,
and
by
living
economically
,
lay
by
a
considerable
sum
from
the
produce
of
an
estate
already
large
,
and
capable
of
almost
immediate
improvement
.
But
the
fortune
,
which
had
been
so
tardy
in
coming
,
was
his
only
one
twelvemonth
.
He
survived
his
uncle
no
longer
;
and
ten
thousand
pounds
,
including
the
late
legacies
,
was
all
that
remained
for
his
widow
and
daughters
.
His
son
was
sent
for
as
soon
as
his
danger
was
known
,
and
to
him
Mr
.
Dashwood
recommended
,
with
all
the
strength
and
urgency
which
illness
could
command
,
the
interest
of
his
mother
-
in
-
law
and
sisters
.
Mr
.
John
Dashwood
had
not
the
strong
feelings
of
the
rest
of
the
family
;
but
he
was
affected
by
a
recommendation
of
such
a
nature
at
such
a
time
,
and
he
promised
to
do
every
thing
in
his
power
to
make
them
comfortable
.
His
father
was
rendered
easy
by
such
an
assurance
,
and
Mr
.
John
Dashwood
had
then
leisure
to
consider
how
much
there
might
prudently
be
in
his
power
to
do
for
them
.
He
was
not
an
ill
-
disposed
young
man
,
unless
to
be
rather
cold
hearted
and
rather
selfish
is
to
be
ill
-
disposed
:
but
he
was
,
in
general
,
well
respected
;
for
he
conducted
himself
with
propriety
in
the
discharge
of
his
ordinary
duties
.
