The House of Clement

The Clements are among the most upstanding families landed in Chateaugay. It is a wonder to many that they so strongly favour Miss Clement's attachment to dashing Lieutenant Lucas, who has "never ever in his life even met a highwayman!"

Goodwife Clement in her blue silk gown rules the brood. The first son, Barlowe, displays the English sporting style, the elegant squire ready to ride. The daughter, pretty in gold and stripes, hangs tight to her beau, the brave Lieutenant Lucas of the 53rd regiment.

Together, the clan makes a most handsome group.
