`` Why is n't she to be spoken of ? '' queried Eric impatiently . `` What is the mystery about her ? '' `` It 's a sad story , Master . I suppose the Gordons look on her existence as a sort of disgrace . For my own part , I think it 's terrible , the way she 's been brought up . But the Gordons are very strange people , Mr. Marshall . I kind of reproved father for saying so , you remember , but it is true . They have very strange ways . And you 've really seen Kilmeny ? What does she look like ? I 've heard that she was handsome . Is it true ? '' `` I thought her very beautiful , '' said Eric rather curtly . `` But HOW has she been brought up , Mrs. Williamson ? And why ? '' `` Well , I might as well tell you the whole story , Master . Kilmeny is the niece of Thomas and Janet Gordon . Her mother was Margaret Gordon , their younger sister . Old James Gordon came out from Scotland .
Janet and XXXXX were born in the Old Country and were small children when they came here .
