<p><font style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: silver" color="silver"><p>The day was really quite hot. The ice which had been
"disinterred" for drinkable water melted before it was brought near the
fire. Thin pieces of the ice crust of the steep beach fell off into the sea,
and it was evident that the general level of the islet was being lowered
by the constant wearing away of its base in the tepid waters.</p><p>‘
The seat! and it is expected that I am to pay for that?’</p><p>I dare
not say that the Professor is right, but to my eyes it seemed he spoke
sooth. As the knowledge of good and evil sets its mark upon the face of a
grown man of Our people, so something I did not understand had marked the
faces of the Chinamen. They had no kinship with the crowd beyond that which
a man has to children.</p><p>Some of the nearest drinkers at the bar looked
round and laughed. Amelius tenderly drew the shawl over the girl’s
cold bosom. "For God’s sake, let us get away from this place!" he
said.</p><p>From that moment Felix was powerless; a new definite suggestion
overrode his vaguer influence. There was a determined rush past Hobb’
s Lane, and not down it. Felix was carried along too. He did not know
whether to wish the contrary. Once on the road, out of the town, with
openings into fields and with the wide park at hand, it would have been
easy for him to liberate himself from the crowd. At first it seemed to him
the better part to do this, and to get back to the town as fast as he could,
in the hope of finding the military and getting a detachment to come and
save the Manor. But he reflected that the course of the mob had been
sufficiently seen, and that there were plenty of people in Park Street to
carry the information faster than he could. It seemed more necessary that
he should secure the presence of some help for the family at the Manor by
going there himself. The Debarrys were not of the class he was wont to be
anxious about; but Felix Holt’s conscience was alive to the
accusation that any danger they might be in now was brought on by a deed of
his. In these moments of bitter vexation and disappointment, it did occur
to him that very unpleasant consequences might be hanging over him of a
kind quite different from inward dissatisfaction; but it was useless now to
think of averting such consequences. As he was pressed along with the
multitude into Treby Park, his very movement seemed to him only an image of
the day’s fatalities, in which the multitudinous small wickednesses
of small selfish ends, really undirected towards any larger result, had
issued in widely-shared mischief that might yet be hideous.</p><p>"Same
here!"</p><p>"Did she live happy or die regretted, good father?" asked
Catharine, in the same calm and steady tone.</p><p>"No," said Amelius; "I
wish I did. Well, we received her, on her arrival, in the Common Room —
called so because we all assemble there every evening, when the work of the
day is done. Sometimes we have the reading of a poem or a novel; sometimes
debates on the social and political questions of the time in England and
America; sometimes music, or dancing, or cards, or billiards, to amuse us.
When a new member arrives, we have the ceremonies of introduction. I was
close by the Elder Brother (that’s the name we give to the chief of
the Community) when two of the women led Miss Mellicent in. He’s a
hearty old fellow, who lived the first part of his life on his own clearing
in one of the Western forests. To this day, he can’t talk long,
without showing, in one way or another, that his old familiarity with the
trees still keeps its place in his memory. He looked hard at Miss Mellicent,
under his shaggy old white eyebrows; and I heard him whisper to himself,
‘Ah, dear me! Another of The Fallen Leaves!’ I knew what he
meant. The people who have drawn blanks in the lottery of life — the people
who have toiled hard after happiness, and have gathered nothing but
disappointment and sorrow; the friendless and the lonely, the wounded and
the lost — these are the people whom our good Elder Brother calls The
Fallen Leaves. I like the saying myself; it’s a tender way of
speaking of our poor fellow-creatures who are down in the
world."</p><p></p><p>I grew worse and worse — I got downright sulky
now.</p><p>All hurried towards the young Canadian, who remained fixed to
the spot, looking attentively at the ground before her.</p><p>Albany
retired to think over his ambitious projects, while the father and son
attended divine service, to thank God for their happy
reconciliation.</p><p>"Well, it’s simple enough," replied Cowperwood.
"I should like to have you withdraw your opposition to Aileen’s
remaining in Philadelphia, for one thing; and for another, I should like
you to stop your attacks on me." Cowperwood smiled in an ingratiating way.
He hoped really to placate Butler in part by his generous attitude
throughout this procedure. "I can’t make you do that, of course,
unless you want to. I merely bring it up, Mr. Butler, because I am sure
that if it hadn’t been for Aileen you would not have taken the course
you have taken toward me. I understood you received an anonymous letter,
and that afternoon you called your loan with me. Since then I have heard
from one source and another that you were strongly against me, and I merely
wish to say that I wish you wouldn’t be. I am not guilty of
embezzling any sixty thousand dollars, and you know it. My intentions were
of the best. I did not think I was going to fail at the time I used those
certificates, and if it hadn’t been for several other loans that were
called I would have gone on to the end of the month and put them back in
time, as I always had. I have always valued your friendship very highly,
and I am very sorry to lose it. Now I have said all I am going to
say."</p><p>About this time a few animals were taken which had already
assumed their winter furs, such as martens, polecats, blue foxes, and
ermines. Marbre and Sabine had obtained leave from the Lieutenant to set
some traps outside the enceinte. He did not like to refuse them this
permission, lest they should become discontented, as he had really no
reason to assign for putting a stop to the collecting of furs, although he
knew full well that the destination of these harmless creatures could do
nobody any good. Their flesh was, however, useful for feeding the dogs, and
enabled them to economise the reindeer venison.</p><p>"I am not afraid,"
Mrs. Crayford replied. "He frightened me at first — he interests me now.
Let him speak to me if he wishes it!"</p><p>Lieutenant Crayford returned to
his wife. She spoke to him instantly.</p><p>‘May I stay here a little
while?’ he said, after a moment, which seemed long.</p><p>‘A—
in that case — a,’ said Jermyn, with a wooden indifference, ‘
you would lose the advantage which — a — may attach to your possession of
Henry Scaddon’s knowledge. And at the same time, if it were in the
least — a — inconvenient to you that you should be recognised as Henry
Scaddon, your denial would not prevent me from holding the knowledge and
evidence which I possess on that point; it would only prevent us from
pursuing the present conversation.’</p><p>‘Robert?’ said
he, interrogatively. I nodded.</p><p>"Are we to be slain in our own streets
for the King’s softness of heart?" said the butcher. "The Bruce did
otherwise. If the King will not keep us, we will keep ourselves. Ring the
bells backward, every bell of them that is made of metal. Cry, and spare
not, St. Johnston’s hunt is up!"</p><p>"Did you tell him, Dinny?
"</p><p>"I forgive you, Amelius, with all my heart," she said — and timidly
held out her hand.</p><p>"Yassah, I done tuck it."</p><p>"And are all of
you turned into brutes, then?" said the Prince.</p><p>The old lodge-keeper
had opened the gate and left it in the charge of his lame wife, because he
was wanted at the Court to sweep away the leaves, and perhaps to help in
the stables. For though Transome Court was a large mansion, built in the
fashion of Queen Anne’s time, with a park and grounds as fine as any
to be seen in Loamshire, there were very few servants about it. Especially,
it seemed, there must be a lack of gardeners; for, except on the terrace
surrounded with a stone parapet in front of the house, where there was a
parterre kept with some neatness, grass had spread itself over the gravel
walks, and over all the low mounds once carefully cut as black beds for the
shrubs and larger plants. Many of the windows had the shutters closed, and
under the grand Scotch fir that stooped towards one corner, the brown
fir-needles of many years lay in a small stone balcony in front of two such
darkened windows. All round, both near and far, there were grand trees,
motionless in the still sunshine, and, like all large motionless things,
seeming to add to the stillness. Here and there a leaf fluttered down;
petals fell in a silent shower; a heavy moth floated by, and, when it
settled, seemed to fall wearily; the tiny birds alighted on the walks, and
hopped about in perfect tranquillity; even a stray rabbit sat nibbling a
leaf that was to its liking, in the middle of a grassy space, with an air
that seemed quite impudent in so timid a creature. No sound was to be heard
louder than a sleepy hum, and the soft monotony of running water hurrying
on to the river that divided the park. Standing on the south or east side
of the house, you would never have guessed that an arrival was
expected.</p><p>‘I have always liked a cathedral town,’ said
Lucy; ‘and I am particularly fond of the close.’</p><p>And when
he was well gone — absolutely out of sight from the window — Lucy walked
steadily up to her room, locked the door, and then threw herself on the
bed. Why — oh! why had she told such a falsehood? Could anything justify
her in a lie? was it not a lie — knowing as she did that she loved him with
all her loving heart? But, then, his mother! and the sneers of the world,
which would have declared that she had set her trap, and caught the foolish
young lord! Her pride would not have submitted to that. Strong as her love
was, yet her pride was, perhaps stronger — stronger at any rate during that
interview. But how was she to forgive herself the falsehood she had told?
</p><p>With all Mr Sherlock’s timidity, there was fascination for him
in this distinction. He reflected that he could take coffee and sit up late,
and perhaps produce something rather fine. It might be a first step
towards that eminence which it was no more than his duty to aspire to. Even
a polemical fame like that of a Philpotts must have had a beginning. Mr
Sherlock was not insensible to the pleasure of turning sentences
successfully, and it was a pleasure not always unconnected with preferment.
A diffident man likes the idea of doing something remarkable, which will
create belief in him without any immediate display of brilliancy. Celebrity
may blush and be silent, and win a grace the more. Thus Mr Sherlock was
constrained, trembling all the while, and much wishing that his essay were
already in print.</p><p>"If thirty feet might serve," replied
Ramorny.</p><p>There is considerably too much guessing about this large
nation. As one of them put it rather forcibly: ‘We guess a trestle
will stand for ever, and we guess that we can patch up a washout on the
track, and we guess the road’s clear, and sometimes we guess
ourselves into the deepot, and sometimes we guess ourselves into
Hell.’</p><p>"Oh yes, madam, everything with wings will go, they can
traverse long distances without fatigue, and, more fortunate than ourselves,
they will regain terra firma."</p><p>"I don’t. There’s only
one first hour. And I was beginning to think I should never have
it."</p><p>There was something almost awful in this to Mrs Robarts.
Hitherto, since their marriage, hardly a thought had passed through her
mind which she had not shared with her husband. But now all this had come
upon her so suddenly, that she was unable to think whether it would be well
that she should become the depository of such a secret — not to be
mentioned to Lucy’s brother, not to be mentioned to her own husband.
But who ever yet was offered a secret and declined it? Who at least ever
declined a love secret? What sister could do so? Mrs Robarts, therefore,
gave the promise, smoothing Lucy’s hair as she did so, and kissing
her forehead and looking into her eyes, which, like a rainbow, were the
brighter for her tears. ‘And what has he said to you, Lucy?’
</p><p>She sighed. "Perhaps it’s best."</p><p>Thinking thus anxiously,
he availed himself at the same time of his position to see as much as he
could of what passed between the afflicted chieftain and his confidant,
impelled by that spirit of curiosity which prompts us in the most momentous,
as well as the most trivial, occasions of life, and which is sometimes
found to exist in company with great personal fear.</p><p>In that way
Esther won her end without needing to betray it; and as Harold was already
away at Loamford, she was the more secure.</p><p>‘Well, there; I will
if I must; but, Mark, do not frighten me. Why is your face so very wretched?
’</p><p>For example, it is manifest we condemn living in idleness or
on non-productive sport, on the income derived from private property, and
all sorts of ways of earning a living that cannot be shown to conduce to
the constructive process. We condemn trading that is merely speculative,
and in fact all trading and manufacture that is not a positive social
service; we condemn living by gambling or by playing games for either
stakes or pay. Much more do we condemn dishonest or fraudulent trading and
every act of advertisement that is not punctiliously truthful. We must
condemn too the taking of any income from the community that is neither
earned nor conceded in the collective interest. But to this last point, and
to certain issues arising out of it, I will return in the section next
following this one.</p><p>Henry Cowperwood was exceedingly interested in
and pleased at the arrival of this rather prosperous relative; for twelve
years before, when he was married, Seneca Davis had not taken much notice
of him.</p><p>"Well, that’s true. But I know a lot of things you
don’t know." She laughed softly, showing her pretty teeth.</p><p>Mr.
Ronald, listening with his head down, and without interposing a word on his
own part, made an extraordinary answer. "Leave it," he said. "Leave it till
tomorrow."</p><p>And that evening I went up to the garrison post — one of
the most coveted of all the army commands — and overlooked the City of the
Saints as it lay in the circle of its forbidding hills. You can speculate a
good deal about the mass of human misery, the loves frustrated, the gentle
hearts broken, and the strong souls twisted from the law of life to a
fiercer following of the law of death, that the hills have seen. How must
it have been in the old days when the footsore emigrants broke through into
the circle and knew that they were cut off from hope of return or sight of
friends — were handed over to the power of the friends that called
themselves priests of the Most High? ‘But for the grace of God there
goes Richard Baxter,’ as the eminent divine once said. It seemed good
that fate did not order me to be a brick in the up-building of the Mormon
Church, that has so aptly established herself by the borders of a lake
bitter, salt, and hopeless.</p><p></p><p>"Forget my threats, good leech,"
said Ramorny, "and beware how you tempt me. Such as I brook not jests upon
our agony. See thou keep thy scoffs, to pass upon misers [that is,
miserable persons, as used in Spenser and other writers of his time, though
the sense is now restricted to those who are covetous] in the
hospital."</p><p>Mr Lyon seemed to be looking at Esther as he smiled, but
she was not near enough for him to discern the expression of her face. Just
then it seemed made for melancholy rather than for playfulness. Hers was
not a childish beauty; and when the sparkle of mischief, wit, and vanity
was out of her eyes, and the large look of abstracted sorrow was there, you
would have been surprised by a certain grandeur which the smiles had
hidden. That changing face was the perfect symbol of her mixed susceptible
nature, in which battle was inevitable, and the side of victory
uncertain.</p><p>She and Harold were walking a little in advance of the
rest of the party, who were retarded by various causes. Old Mr Transome,
wrapped in a cloth cloak trimmed with sable, and with a soft warm cap also
trimmed with fur on his head, had a shuffling uncertain walk. Little Harry
was dragging a toy-vehicle, on the seat of which he had insisted on tying
Moro, with a piece of scarlet drapery round him, making him look like a
barbaric prince in a chariot. Moro, having little imagination, objected to
this, and barked with feeble snappishness as the tyrannous lad ran forward,
then whirled the chariot round, and ran back to ‘Gappa’, then
came to a dead stop, which overset the chariot, that he might watch Uncle
Lingon’s water-spaniel run for the hurled stick and bring it in his
mouth. Nimrod kept close to his old master’s legs, glancing with much
indifference at this youthful ardour about sticks — he had ‘gone
through all that’; and Dominic walked by, looking on blandly, and
taking care both of young and old. Mrs Transome was not there.</p><p>We all
need training, training in the balanced attitude.</p><p>"But that was ages
ago," she said.</p><p>And then there was written, on an outside scrap,
which was folded round the full-written sheet of paper. ‘Make it as
smooth at Framley Court as possible.’ However strong, and reasonable,
and unanswerable the body of Mark’s letter may have been, all his
hesitation, weakness, doubt, and fear, were expressed in that short
postscript.</p><p>"My support your Grace may ever command," replied Albany;
"but would it become me, of all men on earth, to prompt to your Grace
severe measures against your son and heir? Me, on whom, in case of failure
— which Heaven forefend!— of your Grace’s family, this fatal crown
might descend? Would it not be thought and said by the fiery March and the
haughty Douglas, that Albany had sown dissension between his royal brother
and the heir to the Scottish throne, perhaps to clear the way for the
succession of his own family? No, my liege, I can sacrifice my life to your
service, but I must not place my honour in danger."</p><p>"MR. DESERT’
S APOSTASY.</p><p>The toilet of Amelius, simple as it was, had its
mysteries for Rufus. He was at a loss among the perfumes. They were all
contained in a modest little dressing case, without labels of any sort to
describe the contents of the pots and bottles. He examined them one after
another, and stopped at some recently invented French shaving-cream. "It
smells lovely," he said, assuming it to be some rare pomatum. "Just what I
want, it seems, for my head." He rubbed the shaving cream into his bristly
iron-gray hair, until his arms ached. When he had next sprinkled his
handkerchief and himself profusely, first with rose water, and then (to
make quite sure) with eau-de-cologne used as a climax, he felt that he was
in a position to appeal agreeably to the senses of the softer sex. In five
minutes more, he was on his way to Mr. Farnaby’s private
residence.</p><p>‘Nothing. I’ve accumulated a lot of
impressions of no use to any one but the owner.’</p><p>It was a
simple, white-walled chamber fifteen by twenty feet in size, rather
high-ceiled, supplied with a high-backed, yellow wooden bed, a yellow
bureau, a small imitation-cherry table, three very ordinary cane-seated
chairs with carved hickory-rod backs, cherry-stained also, and a wash-stand
of yellow-stained wood to match the bed, containing a washbasin, a pitcher,
a soap-dish, uncovered, and a small, cheap, pink-flowered tooth and shaving
brush mug, which did not match the other ware and which probably cost ten
cents. The value of this room to Sheriff Jaspers was what he could get for
it in cases like this — twenty-five to thirty-five dollars a week.
Cowperwood would pay thirty-five.</p><p>"Don’t they! And yawn-making
— as they’d call it! I’d sooner attend City dinners for the
rest of my life than spend a week-end in the company of those bright young
things."</p><p></p><p></p><p>‘The captain has left me for this one
day. If you’ll whisper, I’ll tell you where he has gone. I dare
not speak it out loud, even to the woods.’</p><p>Let us not compare
the two men, but go on through Nagasaki.</p><p>In an age when tolerations
and condonations seemed almost a disease, Jack Muskham knew and registered
his own mind. He had disliked young Desert at first sight. The fellow’
s name suited him! And to think that this nice girl, who, without any
training, had made those shrewd remarks about the racehorse, was to have
her life ruined by this yellow-livered young braggart! It was too much! If
it hadn’t been for Lawrence, indeed, he would have done something
about it before now. But there his mind stammered. What? . . . Here was the
fellow publicly confessing his disgrace! An old dodge, that — taking the
sting out of criticism! Making a virtue of necessity! Parading his
desertion! That cock shouldn’t fight, if he had his way! But once
more his mind stammered . . . No outsider could interfere. And yet, unless
there were some outward and visible sign condemning the fellow’s
conduct, it would look as if nobody cared.</p><p>Captain Helding cast the
dice; the top of the cask serving for a table. He threw seven.</p><p>‘
Only he would never succeed,’ says Mrs Harold Smith. ‘But
perhaps, Mr Robarts, you are as bad as the rest; perhaps you too, will be
hunting tomorrow.’</p><p>Amelius started. His relations with Phoebe
had been purely and entirely of the pecuniary sort. She was a showy, pretty
girl, with a smart little figure — but with some undeniably bad lines,
which only observant physiognomists remarked, about her eyebrows and her
mouth. Amelius was not a physiognomist; but he was in love with Regina,
which at his age implied faithful love. It is only men over forty who can
court the mistress, with reserves of admiration to spare for the
maid.</p><p>"Owen says he’s going at twelve."</p></font></p>
