In December he was obliged to go to Paris to confer with Baron Friddani and Prince Granatelli, who had already preceded him. In the meantime my father had escaped from Palermo and joined his brother in England, where they both determined to remain, as they knew that after the prominent part they had taken in the revolution a return to Palermo meant imprison- ment and torture, the amnesty notwithstanding. And they realised only too fully that further struggles for the present were impossible. My... uncle had already made the acquaintance of my Tuscan grandfather, Pompeo Anichini, and of my mother, at the house of Mrs. Milner Gibson. My father was introduced to them, and an attach- ment soon sprang up between the young people, which ended in their marriage on the 30th November 1852, two years and two days after the death of her father ; my mother, in addition to refusing to leave my grandfather during his lifetime, having insisted on waiting for this long period of mourning. In those days the Vatican did not raise the difficulties now existing against marriages between Protestants and Roman Catholics, and my parents of their own free-will agreed that any sons of their union should follow the faith of the father, whilst the daughters should be Protestants.
