Is There Any Other Chateau Nearby?

Evelyn asked me, Who is the lord of the chateau nearest to this? I looked at her in astonishment. Do you not know that there is no other chateau within forty miles of Bueyverdon? Indeed, she said, That is strange. After much in treaty I obtained from her the reason of her surprise. In her walks about the park and woods during the last month she had met a man who, by his dress and bearing, was obviously of noble rank. Have you seen this man often, Evelyn? I asked. She answered in a tone which had a touch of sadness. I see him every day. Where, dearest?
