The True Darcy Spirit
“He didn’t care for the look of the man at all, he would never employ someone like this as his personal servant, and he thought with a moment’s satisfaction about his own grizzle-haired and grizzlefaced Marston, honest, reliable, and utterly trustworthy, although sometimes too inclined to speak his mind with the frankness he felt he’d earned after a lifetime of service to the family; he had started as a page boy in Darcy’s grandfather’s house a great many years ago, and had never left them.
This... Ratchet was altogether a different kind of servant, a Londoner from his crown to his boot tips, wily, wise in the ways of the nobility. Trustworthy?
Darcy wouldn’t pass judgement on that. He probably was trustworthy as far as it went, which was with regard to Lord Usborne, who would make a ferocious master, Darcy imagined, and one who would expect, demand, and get the trust he needed, and who would dismiss any servant who did not serve him in exactly the way he wanted.
