of personal prejudice against Mr. Farnaby.</p><p>The banking house of Jay
Cooke & Co., in spite of its tremendous significance as a banking and
promoting concern, was a most unpretentious affair, four stories and a half
in height of gray stone and red brick. It had never been deemed a handsome
or comfortable banking house. Cowperwood had been there often. Wharf-rats
as long as the forearm of a man crept up the culverted channels of Dock
Street to run through the apartments at will. Scores of clerks worked under
gas-jets, where light and air were not any too abundant, keeping track of
the firm’s vast accounts. It was next door to the Girard National
Bank, where Cowperwood’s friend Davison still flourished, and where
the principal financial business of the street converged. As Cowperwood ran
he met his brother Edward, who was coming to the stock exchange with some
word for him from Wingate.</p><p>"I profess to you," answered Mrs. Baliol,
"that I am very willing to be converted to your faith. We talk of a
credulous vulgar, without always recollecting that there is a vulgar
incredulity, which, in historical matters as well as in those of religion,
finds it easier to doubt than to examine, and endeavours to assume the
credit of an esprit fort, by denying whatever happens to be a little beyond
the very limited comprehension of the sceptic. And so, that point being
settled, and you possessing, as we understand, the open sesamum into these
secret apartments, how, if we may ask, do you intend to avail yourself of
your privilege? Do you propose to pass the night in the royal bedchamber?
"</p><p>‘It awakened him; and then he jumped up and said
something.’</p><p></p><p>The earl entered, agreeable to the
Prince’s summons.</p><p>It seems to me that the whole living creation
may be regarded as walking in its sleep, as walking in the sleep of
instinct and individualized illusion, and that now out of it all rises man,
beginning to perceive his larger self, his universal brotherhood and a
collective synthetic purpose to increase Power and realize Beauty . .
.</p><p>‘No, my dear; at any rate not now.’</p><p>You know our
ineradicable tendency to damn everything in the mofussil? Calcutta
professes astonishment that Allahabad has a good dancing floor; Allahabad
wonders if it is true that Lahore really has an ice-factory; and Lahore
pretends to believe that everybody in Peshawar sleeps armed. Very much in
the same way I was amused at seeing a steam tramway in Rangoon, and after
we had quitted Moulmein fully expected to find the outskirts of
civilisation. Vanity and ignorance were severely shocked when they
confronted a long street of business — a street of two-storied houses, full
of ticca-gharries, shop-signs, and above all jinrickshaws.</p><p>"Yes, Mr.
Chapin," Cowperwood said, politely. "You can depend on me to do all those
things promptly."</p><p>"Yes, honey. I’m at the end of my rope. I
don’t see any way out just at present. I’ve sent for my father
and my lawyer. You mustn’t stay here, sweet. Your father may come in
here at any time. We must meet somewhere — to-morrow, say — to-morrow
afternoon. You remember Indian Rock, out on the Wissahickon?"</p><p>‘
No — no relation,’ said Annette, shaking her head. ‘He has been
good to me.’</p><p>‘You are just the same,’ said
Esther.</p><p>"Yes, well —" Butler continued, when she had gone. "Then well
leave it for a day or two. Good day."</p><p>"Don’t let us return to
that," she answered, and went on again with her embroidery.</p><p>When the
American maiden — I speak now for the rank and file of that noble army — is
once married, why, it is finished. She has had her lovely time. It may have
been five, seven, or ten years according to circumstances. She abdicates
promptly with startling speed, and her place knows her no more except as
with her husband. The Queen is dead, or looking after the house. This same
household work seems to be the thing that ages the American woman. She is
infamously ‘helped’ by the Irish trollop and the negress alike.
It is not fair upon her, because she has to do three parts of the housework
herself, and in dry, nerve-straining air the ‘chores’ are a
burden. Be thankful, O my people, for Mauz Baksh, Kadir Baksh, and the ayah
while they are with you. They are twice as handy as the unkempt slatterns
of the furnished apartments to which you will return, Commissioners though
you be; and five times as clever as the Amelia Araminta Rebellia Secessia
Jackson (coloured) under whose ineptitude and insolence the young American
housewife groans. But all this is far enough from peaceful, placid Musquash
and its boundless cordiality, its simple, genuine hospitality, and its —
what’s the French word that, just covers all?— gra — gracieuseness,
isn’t it? Oh, be good to an American wherever you meet him. Put him
up for the club, and he will hold you listening till three in the morning;
give him the best tent, and the grain-fed mutton. I have incurred a debt of
salt that I can never repay, but do you return it piecemeal to any of that
Nation, and the account will be on my head till our paths in the world
cross again. He drinks iced water just as we do; but he doesn’t quite
like our cigars.</p><p>It was a melancholy, dreary place now, that big
house of Chaldicotes; and though the woods were all green with their early
leaves, and the garden thick with flowers, they were also melancholy and
dreary. The lawns were untrimmed and weeds were growing through the gravel,
and here and there a cracked Dryad, tumbled from her pedestal and sprawling
in the grass, gave a look of disorder to the whole place. The wooden
trellis-work was shattered here and bending there, the standard rose-trees
were stooping to the ground, and the leaves of the winter still encumbered
the borders. Of all the inanimate things of the world this wood of
Chaldicotes was the dearest to him. He was not a man to whom his companions
gave much credit for feelings or thoughts akin to poetry, but here, out in
the Chace, his mind would be almost poetical. While wandering among the
forest trees, he became susceptible of the tenderness of human nature: he
would listen to the birds singing, and pick here and there a wild flower on
his path. He would watch the decay of the old trees and the progress of the
young, and make pictures in his eyes of every turn in the wood. He would
mark the colour of a bit of road as it dipped into a dell, and then,
passing through a water-course, rose brown, rough, irregular, and beautiful
against the bank on the other side. And then he would sit and think of his
old family: how they had roamed there time out of mind in those Chaldicotes
woods, father and son and grandson in regular succession, each giving them
over, without blemish or decrease, to his successor. So he would sit; and
so did he sit even now, and, thinking of these things, wished that he had
never been.</p><p>A little later the beams and planks of the house, which
had slid under the island, were seen floating about in the offing like the
spars of a wrecked vessel. This was the worst evil the storm had wrought,
and would compromise the solidity of the island yet more, as the waves
would now eat away the ice all round the crevasse.</p><p>"Well, what?" she
asked, looking affectionately into his eyes.</p><p>"Nay," said the
mediciner, "I have but a single word to say, and yonder nobleman’s
valiancie may hear it if he will."</p><p>In the afternoon of the same day,
July 6th Hobson and Mac-Nab the carpenter went to choose the site of the
principal house on the plateau at the foot of Cape Bathurst. From this
point the view embraced the lagoon and the western districts to a distance
of ten or twelve miles. On the right, about four miles off, towered
icebergs of a considerable height. partly draped in mist; whilst on the
left stretched apparently boundless plains, vast steppes which it would be
impossible to distinguish from the frozen surface of the lagoon or from the
sea itself in the winter.</p><p>"It must be himself, then, whatever is of
it! But, oh! it is more like the foul fiend in his likeness, to have such a
baggage hanging upon his cloak. Oh, Harry Smith, men called you a wild lad
for less things; but who would ever have thought that Harry would have
brought a light leman under the roof that sheltered his worthy mother, and
where his own nurse has dwelt for thirty years?"</p><p>The next morning Mr
Lyon heard his guest’s history. She was the daughter of a French
officer of considerable rank, who had fallen in the Russian campaign. She
had escaped from France to England with much difficulty in order to rejoin
her husband, a young Englishman, to whom she had become attached during his
detention as a prisoner of war on parole at Vesoul, where she was living
under the charge of some relatives, and to whom she had been married
without the consent of her family. Her husband had served in the Hanoverian
army, had obtained his discharge in order to visit England on some business,
with the nature of which she was not acquainted, and had been taken
prisoner as a suspected spy. A short time after their marriage he and his
fellow-prisoners had been moved to a town nearer the coast, and she had
remained in wretched uncertainty about him, until at last a letter had come
from him telling her that an exchange of prisoners had occurred, that he
was in England, that she must use her utmost effort to follow him, and that
on arriving on English ground she must send him word under a cover which he
enclosed, bearing an address in London. Fearing the opposition of her
friends, she started unknown to them, with a very small supply of money;
and after enduring much discomfort and many fears in waiting for a passage,
which she at last got in a small trading smack, she arrived at Southampton
— ill. Before she was able to write her baby was born; and before her
husband’s answer came, she had been obliged to pawn some clothes and
trinkets. He desired her to travel to London, where he would meet her at
the Belle Sauvage, adding that he was himself in distress and unable to
come to her: when once he was in London they would take ship and quit the
country. Arrived at the Belle Sauvage, the poor thing waited three days in
vain for her husband: on the fourth a letter came in a strange hand, saying
that in his last moments he had desired this letter to be written to inform
her of his death, and recommend her to return to her friends. She could
choose no other course, but she had soon been reduced to walking, that she
might save her pence to buy bread with; and on the evening when she made
her appeal to Mr Lyon, she had pawned the last thing, over and above
needful clothing, that she could persuade herself to part with. The things
she had not borne to part with were her marriage-ring and a locket
containing her husband’s hair, and bearing his baptismal name. This
locket, she said, exactly resembled one worn by her husband on his
watch-chain, only that his bore the name Annette, and contained a lock of
her hair. The precious trifle now hung round her neck by a cord, for she
had sold the small gold chain which formerly held it.</p><p>"England
doesn’t seem to agree with me, and I am starting tomorrow for Siam.
My bank will have my address from time to time. Stack will keep things
going here as usual, so that the rooms will be ready whenever you want
them. I hope you’ll take care of yourself. I’ll try and send
you a coin for your collection now and then. Good-bye.</p><p>Frank only
stared. Too bad he had missed this. The least touch of sorrow for the squid
came to him as he stared at it slain. Then he gazed at the
victor.</p><p>Denner had still strong eyes of that shortsighted kind which
sees through the narrowest chink between the eye-lashes. The physical
contrast between the tall, eagle-faced, dark-eyed lady, and the little
peering waidng-woman, who had been round-featured and of pale mealy
complexion from her youth up, had doubdess had a strong influence in
determining Denner’s feeling towards her mistress, which was of that
worshipful sort paid to a goddess in ages when it was not thought necessary
or likely that a goddess should be very moral. There were different orders
of beings — so ran Denner’s creed — and she belonged to another order
than that to which her mistress belonged. She had a mind as sharp as a
needle, and would have seen through and through the ridiculous pretensions
of a born servant who did not submissively accept the rigid fate which had
given her born superiors. She would have called such pretensions the
wrigglings of a worm that tried to walk on its tail. There was a tacit
understanding that Denner knew all her mistress’s secrets, and her
speech was plain and unflattering; yet with wonderful subtlety of instinct
she never said anything which Mrs Transome could feel humiliated by, as by
a familiarity from a servant who knew too much. Denner idendfied her own
dignity with that of her mistress. She was a hard-headed godless little
woman, but with a character to be reckoned on as you reckon on the
qualities of iron.</p><p>‘And till we can recover that, we shall
never be able to have a Government firm-seated and sure-handed. Nobody can
count on men from one week to another. The very members who in one month
place a minister in power, are the very first to vote against him in the
next.’</p><p>Wherefore I request that you will further my effort to
place these articles in the right hands, by ascertaining whether any person
within your walls claims them as his property, and by sending that person
to me (if such be found); for I will on no account let them pass from my
care save into that of one who, declaring himself to be the owner, can
state to me what is the impression on the seal, and what the device and
name upon the locket. — I am, Sir, yours to command in all right dealing,
</p><p>Once more the gavel.</p><p>‘Yes, for a day or two, I suppose.
I do not know whether I shall pass another winter here. Indeed, one can
never say where one will be.’</p><p>"She inspires me with a sort of
horror."</p><p>‘Exactly,’ said Lord Lufton. ‘She will do
exceedingly well for Justinia.’ Now this was not good-natured on the
part of Lord Lufton; and his mother felt it the more strongly, inasmuch as
it seemed to signify that he was setting his back up against the
Lufton-Grantly alliance. She had been pretty sure that he would do so in
the event of his suspecting that a plot was being laid to catch him; and
now it almost appeared that he did suspect such a plot. Why else sarcasm as
to Griselda doing very well for his sister?</p><p></p><p>Order being
restored, the coroner ruled that the juryman’s question was not
admissible, and that the servant’s evidence, taken with the
statements of the doctor and the chemist, was the only evidence for the
consideration of the jury. Summing up to this effect, he recalled Amelius,
at the request of the foreman, to inquire if the witness knew anything of
the old woman who had been frequently alluded to in the course of the
proceedings. Amelius could answer this question as honestly as he had
answered the questions preceding it. He neither knew the woman’s name,
nor where she was to be found. The coroner inquired, with a touch of irony,
if the jury wished the inquest to be adjourned, under existing
circumstances.</p><p>"Let’s go to the Stand and see the race." He did
not seem to have seen Muskham; and, with his hand within her arm, she tried
to forget the sudden stiffening of Jack Muskham’s face. The
crowd’s multiple entreaty that she should have her ‘fortune
told’ did its best to distract her, and she arrived at the Stand in a
mood of indifference to all but Wilfrid and the horses. They found standing
room close to the bookmakers near the rails.</p></font></p>
