I 'm awfully sorry in one way -- but oh , wo n't it be splendid to have a real wedding in the family ? She 's going to have a big wedding -- and I am to be bridesmaid . '' `` I should n't think you were old enough to be a bridesmaid , '' said Felicity sharply . `` I 'm nearly fifteen . Anyway , Aunt Olivia says I have to be . '' `` Who 's she going to marry ? '' asked Cecily , gathering herself together after the shock , and finding that the world was going on just the same . `` His name is Dr. Seton and he is a Halifax man . She met him when she was at Uncle Edward 's last summer . They 've been engaged ever since . The wedding is to be the third week in June . '' `` And our school concert comes off the next week , '' complained Felicity . `` Why do things always come together like that ? And what are you going to do if Aunt Olivia is going away ? '' `` I 'm coming to live at your house , '' answered the Story Girl rather timidly . She did not know how Felicity might like that . But Felicity took it rather well . `` You 've been here most of the time anyhow , so it 'll just be that you 'll sleep and eat here , too . But what 's to become of Uncle Roger ? '' `` Aunt Olivia says he 'll have to get married , too .
But Uncle XXXXX says he 'd rather hire a housekeeper than marry one , because in the first case he could turn her off if he did n't like her , but in the second case he could n't . ''
