+BUT IT'S NO USE TALKING ABOUT THAT NOW GIVE ME MY THINGS PLEASE. SHE PUT HER HAND OUT TOWARD THE FENDER. ALEXANDER SAT DOWN ON THE ARM OF HER CHAIR. DID YOU THINK I HAD FORGOTTEN YOU WERE IN TOWN HILDA. DO YOU THINK I KEPT AWAY BY ACCIDENT. THERE IS A LETTER FOR YOU THERE IN MY DESK DRAWER. IT WAS TO HAVE REACHED YOU ON THE STEAMER. I WAS ALL THE MORNING WRITING IT. I TOLD MYSELF THAT IF I WERE REALLY THINKING OF YOU AND NOT OF MYSELF A LETTER WOULD BE BETTER THAN NOTHING. MARKS ON PAPER MEAN SOMETHING TO YOU. HE PAUSED THEY NEVER DID TO ME. HILDA SMILED UP AT HIM BEAUTIFULLY AND PUT HER HAND ON HIS SLEEVE. OH BARTLEY DID YOU WRITE TO ME. ALEXANDER SLIPPED HIS ARM ABOUT HER. I DIDN'T KNOW IT BEFORE HILDA ON MY HONOR I DIDN'T BUT I BELIEVE IT WAS BECAUSE DEEP DOWN IN ME SOMEWHERE I WAS HOPING I MIGHT DRIVE YOU TO DO JUST THIS. I'VE WATCHED THAT DOOR ALL DAY. I'VE JUMPED UP IF THE FIRE CRACKLED. I THINK I HAVE FELT THAT YOU WERE COMING. HE BENT HIS FACE OVER HER HAIR. AND I SHE WHISPERED I FELT THAT YOU WERE FEELING THAT. BUT WHEN I CAME I THOUGHT I HAD BEEN MISTAKEN. ALEXANDER STARTED UP AND BEGAN TO WALK UP AND DOWN THE ROOM. NO YOU WEREN'T MISTAKEN. I'VE BEEN UP IN CANADA WITH MY BRIDGE AND I ARRANGED NOT TO COME TO NEW YORK UNTIL AFTER YOU HAD GONE. THEN WHEN YOUR MANAGER ADDED TWO MORE WEEKS I WAS ALREADY COMMITTED. HE DROPPED UPON THE STOOL IN FRONT OF HER AND SAT WITH HIS HANDS HANGING BETWEEN HIS KNEES. WHAT AM I TO DO HILDA. THAT'S WHAT I WANTED TO SEE YOU ABOUT BARTLEY. I'M GOING TO DO WHAT YOU ASKED ME TO DO WHEN YOU WERE IN LONDON. ONLY I'LL DO IT MORE COMPLETELY. I'M GOING TO MARRY WHO. OH IT DOESN'T MATTER MUCH ONE OF THEM. ONLY NOT MAC I'M TOO FOND OF HIM. ALEXANDER MOVED RESTLESSLY. ARE YOU JOKING HILDA INDEED I'M NOT. THEN YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT. YES I KNOW VERY WELL. I'VE THOUGHT ABOUT IT A GREAT DEAL AND I'VE QUITE DECIDED. I NEVER USED TO UNDERSTAND HOW WOMEN DID THINGS LIKE THAT BUT I KNOW NOW. IT'S BECAUSE THEY CAN'T BE AT THE MERCY OF THE MAN THEY LOVE ANY LONGER. ALEXANDER FLUSHED ANGRILY. SO IT'S BETTER TO BE AT THE MERCY OF A MAN YOU DON'T LOVE. UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES INFINITELY. HE GOT UP AND WENT OVER TO THE WINDOW THREW IT OPEN AND LEANED OUT. HE HEARD HILDA MOVING ABOUT BEHIND HIM. WHEN HE LOOKED OVER HIS SHOULDER SHE WAS LACING HER BOOTS. HE WENT BACK AND STOOD OVER HER. HILDA YOU'D BETTER THINK A WHILE LONGER BEFORE YOU DO THAT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT I OUGHT TO SAY BUT I DON'T BELIEVE YOU'D BE HAPPY TRULY I DON'T AREN'T YOU TRYING TO FRIGHTEN ME. SHE TIED THE KNOT OF THE LAST LACING AND PUT HER BOOT HEEL DOWN FIRMLY. NO I'M TELLING YOU WHAT I'VE MADE UP MY MIND TO DO. I SUPPOSE I WOULD BETTER DO IT WITHOUT TELLING YOU. BUT AFTERWARD I SHAN'T HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO EXPLAIN FOR I SHAN'T BE SEEING YOU AGAIN. ALEXANDER STARTED TO SPEAK BUT CAUGHT HIMSELF. WHEN HILDA ROSE HE SAT DOWN ON THE ARM OF HER CHAIR AND DREW HER BACK INTO IT. I WOULDN'T BE SO MUCH ALARMED IF I DIDN'T KNOW HOW UTTERLY RECKLESS YOU CAN BE. DON'T DO ANYTHING LIKE THAT RASHLY. HIS FACE GREW TROUBLED. YOU WOULDN'T BE HAPPY YOU ARE NOT THAT KIND OF WOMAN. I'D NEVER HAVE ANOTHER HOUR'S PEACE IF I HELPED TO MAKE YOU DO A THING LIKE THAT. HE TOOK HER FACE BETWEEN HIS HANDS AND LOOKED DOWN INTO IT. YOU SEE YOU ARE DIFFERENT HILDA DON'T YOU KNOW YOU ARE. HIS VOICE GREW SOFTER HIS TOUCH MORE AND MORE TENDER. HILDA HAD HEARD THAT SOFT DEEP TONE IN HIS VOICE ONLY ONCE BEFORE. SHE CLOSED HER EYES HER LIPS AND EYELIDS TREMBLED. ONLY ONE BARTLEY ONLY ONE

+A LAUDABLE REGARD FOR THE HONOR OF THE FIRST PROSELYTE HAS COUNTENANCED THE BELIEF THE HOPE THE WISH THAT THE EBIONITES OR AT LEAST THE NAZARENES WERE DISTINGUISHED ONLY BY THEIR OBSTINATE PERSEVERANCE IN THE PRACTICE OF THE MOSAIC RITES. THEIR CHURCHES HAVE DISAPPEARED THEIR BOOKS ARE OBLITERATED THEIR OBSCURE FREEDOM MIGHT ALLOW A LATITUDE OF FAITH AND THE SOFTNESS OF THEIR INFANT CREED WOULD BE VARIOUSLY MOULDED BY THE ZEAL OR PRUDENCE OF THREE HUNDRED YEARS. YET THE MOST CHARITABLE CRITICISM MUST REFUSE THESE SECTARIES ANY KNOWLEDGE OF THE PURE AND PROPER DIVINITY OF CHRIST. HIS PROGRESS FROM INFANCY TO YOUTH AND MANHOOD WAS MARKED BY A REGULAR INCREASE IN STATURE AND WISDOM AND AFTER A PAINFUL AGONY OF MIND AND BODY HE EXPIRED ON THE CROSS. HE LIVED AND DIED FOR THE SERVICE OF MANKIND BUT THE LIFE AND DEATH OF SOCRATES HAD LIKEWISE BEEN DEVOTED TO THE CAUSE OF RELIGION AND JUSTICE AND ALTHOUGH THE STOIC OR THE HERO MAY DISDAIN THE HUMBLE VIRTUES OF JESUS THE TEARS WHICH HE SHED OVER HIS FRIEND AND COUNTRY MAY BE ESTEEMED THE PUREST EVIDENCE OF HIS HUMANITY. THE MIRACLES OF THE GOSPEL COULD NOT ASTONISH A PEOPLE WHO HELD WITH INTREPID FAITH THE MORE SPLENDID PRODIGIES OF THE MOSAIC LAW. THE NATURAL SUSPICIONS OF THE HUSBAND CONSCIOUS OF HIS OWN CHASTITY WERE DISPELLED BY THE ASSURANCE IN A DREAM THAT HIS WIFE WAS PREGNANT OF THE HOLY GHOST AND AS THIS DISTANT AND DOMESTIC PRODIGY COULD NOT FALL UNDER THE PERSONAL OBSERVATION OF THE HISTORIAN HE MUST HAVE LISTENED TO THE SAME VOICE WHICH DICTATED TO ISAIAH THE FUTURE CONCEPTION OF A VIRGIN. THE SON OF A VIRGIN GENERATED BY THE INEFFABLE OPERATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT WAS A CREATURE WITHOUT EXAMPLE OR RESEMBLANCE SUPERIOR IN EVERY ATTRIBUTE OF MIND AND BODY TO THE CHILDREN OF ADAM. ON HIS RETURN TO HIS NATIVE SKIES HE RECEIVED THE IMMENSE REWARD OF HIS OBEDIENCE THE EVERLASTING KINGDOM OF THE MESSIAH WHICH HAD BEEN DARKLY FORETOLD BY THE PROPHETS UNDER THE CARNAL IMAGES OF PEACE OF CONQUEST AND OF DOMINION. NOR COULD IT SEEM STRANGE OR INCREDIBLE THAT THE FIRST OF THESE AEONS THE LOGOS OR WORD OF GOD OF THE SAME SUBSTANCE WITH THE FATHER SHOULD DESCEND UPON EARTH TO DELIVER THE HUMAN RACE FROM VICE AND ERROR AND TO CONDUCT THEM IN THE PATHS OF LIFE AND IMMORTALITY. BUT THE PREVAILING DOCTRINE OF THE ETERNITY AND INHERENT PRAVITY OF MATTER INFECTED THE PRIMITIVE CHURCHES OF THE EAST. MANY AMONG THE GENTILE PROSELYTES REFUSED TO BELIEVE THAT A CELESTIAL SPIRIT AN UNDIVIDED PORTION OF THE FIRST ESSENCE HAD BEEN PERSONALLY UNITED WITH A MASS OF IMPURE AND CONTAMINATED FLESH AND IN THEIR ZEAL FOR THE DIVINITY THEY PIOUSLY ABJURED THE HUMANITY OF CHRIST. HE FIRST APPEARED ON THE BANKS OF THE JORDAN IN THE FORM OF PERFECT MANHOOD BUT IT WAS A FORM ONLY AND NOT A SUBSTANCE A HUMAN FIGURE CREATED BY THE HAND OF OMNIPOTENCE TO IMITATE THE FACULTIES AND ACTIONS OF A MAN AND TO IMPOSE A PERPETUAL ILLUSION ON THE SENSES OF HIS FRIENDS AND ENEMIES. ARTICULATE SOUNDS VIBRATED ON THE EARS OF THE DISCIPLES BUT THE IMAGE WHICH WAS IMPRESSED ON THEIR OPTIC NERVE ELUDED THE MORE STUBBORN EVIDENCE OF THE TOUCH AND THEY ENJOYED THE SPIRITUAL NOT THE CORPOREAL PRESENCE OF THE SON OF GOD. THE RAGE OF THE JEWS WAS IDLY WASTED AGAINST AN IMPASSIVE PHANTOM AND THE MYSTIC SCENES OF THE PASSION AND DEATH THE RESURRECTION AND ASCENSION OF CHRIST WERE REPRESENTED ON THE THEATRE OF JERUSALEM FOR THE BENEFIT OF MANKIND. IF IT WERE URGED THAT SUCH IDEAL MIMICRY SUCH INCESSANT DECEPTION WAS UNWORTHY OF THE GOD OF TRUTH THE DOCETES AGREED WITH TOO MANY OF THEIR ORTHODOX BRETHREN IN THE JUSTIFICATION OF PIOUS FALSEHOOD. BUT THE RASHNESS OF THESE CONCESSIONS HAS ENCOURAGED A MILDER SENTIMENT OF THOSE OF THE DOCETES WHO TAUGHT NOT THAT CHRIST WAS A PHANTOM BUT THAT HE WAS CLOTHED WITH AN IMPASSIBLE AND INCORRUPTIBLE BODY

+SUCH INDEED IN THE MORE ORTHODOX SYSTEM HE HAS ACQUIRED SINCE HIS RESURRECTION AND SUCH HE MUST HAVE ALWAYS POSSESSED IF IT WERE CAPABLE OF PERVADING WITHOUT RESISTANCE OR INJURY THE DENSITY OF INTERMEDIATE MATTER. DEVOID OF ITS MOST ESSENTIAL PROPERTIES IT MIGHT BE EXEMPT FROM THE ATTRIBUTES AND INFIRMITIES OF THE FLESH. A FOETUS THAT COULD INCREASE FROM AN INVISIBLE POINT TO ITS FULL MATURITY A CHILD THAT COULD ATTAIN THE STATURE OF PERFECT MANHOOD WITHOUT DERIVING ANY NOURISHMENT FROM THE ORDINARY SOURCES MIGHT CONTINUE TO EXIST WITHOUT REPAIRING A DAILY WASTE BY A DAILY SUPPLY OF EXTERNAL MATTER. JESUS MIGHT SHARE THE REPASTS OF HIS DISCIPLES WITHOUT BEING SUBJECT TO THE CALLS OF THIRST OR HUNGER AND HIS VIRGIN PURITY WAS NEVER SULLIED BY THE INVOLUNTARY STAINS OF SENSUAL CONCUPISCENCE. OF A BODY THUS SINGULARLY CONSTITUTED A QUESTION WOULD ARISE BY WHAT MEANS AND OF WHAT MATERIALS IT WAS ORIGINALLY FRAMED AND OUR SOUNDER THEOLOGY IS STARTLED BY AN ANSWER WHICH WAS NOT PECULIAR TO THE GNOSTICS THAT BOTH THE FORM AND THE SUBSTANCE PROCEEDED FROM THE DIVINE ESSENCE. IF WE DEFINE THE PLACE WE MUST DESCRIBE THE FIGURE OF THE DEITY. IN THEIR EYES JESUS OF NAZARETH WAS A MERE MORTAL THE LEGITIMATE SON OF JOSEPH AND MARY BUT HE WAS THE BEST AND WISEST OF THE HUMAN RACE SELECTED AS THE WORTHY INSTRUMENT TO RESTORE UPON EARTH THE WORSHIP OF THE TRUE AND SUPREME DEITY. WHEN HE WAS BAPTIZED IN THE JORDAN THE CHRIST THE FIRST OF THE AEONS THE SON OF GOD HIMSELF DESCENDED ON JESUS IN THE FORM OF A DOVE TO INHABIT HIS MIND AND DIRECT HIS ACTIONS DURING THE ALLOTTED PERIOD OF HIS MINISTRY. WHEN THE MESSIAH WAS DELIVERED INTO THE HANDS OF THE JEWS THE CHRIST AN IMMORTAL AND IMPASSIBLE BEING FORSOOK HIS EARTHLY TABERNACLE FLEW BACK TO THE PLEROMA OR WORLD OF SPIRITS AND LEFT THE SOLITARY JESUS TO SUFFER TO COMPLAIN AND TO EXPIRE. BUT THE JUSTICE AND GENEROSITY OF SUCH A DESERTION ARE STRONGLY QUESTIONABLE AND THE FATE OF AN INNOCENT MARTYR AT FIRST IMPELLED AND AT LENGTH ABANDONED BY HIS DIVINE COMPANION MIGHT PROVOKE THE PITY AND INDIGNATION OF THE PROFANE. THEIR MURMURS WERE VARIOUSLY SILENCED BY THE SECTARIES WHO ESPOUSED AND MODIFIED THE DOUBLE SYSTEM OF CERINTHUS. IT WAS ALLEGED THAT WHEN JESUS WAS NAILED TO THE CROSS HE WAS ENDOWED WITH A MIRACULOUS APATHY OF MIND AND BODY WHICH RENDERED HIM INSENSIBLE OF HIS APPARENT SUFFERINGS. IN THE AGE OF RELIGIOUS FREEDOM WHICH WAS DETERMINED BY THE COUNCIL OF NICE THE DIGNITY OF CHRIST WAS MEASURED BY PRIVATE JUDGMENT ACCORDING TO THE INDEFINITE RULE OF SCRIPTURE OR REASON OR TRADITION. BUT WHEN HIS PURE AND PROPER DIVINITY HAD BEEN ESTABLISHED ON THE RUINS OF ARIANISM THE FAITH OF THE CATHOLICS TREMBLED ON THE EDGE OF A PRECIPICE WHERE IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO RECEDE DANGEROUS TO STAND DREADFUL TO FALL AND THE MANIFOLD INCONVENIENCES OF THEIR CREED WERE AGGRAVATED BY THE SUBLIME CHARACTER OF THEIR THEOLOGY. THE WORTHY FRIEND OF ATHANASIUS THE WORTHY ANTAGONIST OF JULIAN HE BRAVELY WRESTLED WITH THE ARIANS AND POLYTHEISTS AND THOUGH HE AFFECTED THE RIGOR OF GEOMETRICAL DEMONSTRATION HIS COMMENTARIES REVEALED THE LITERAL AND ALLEGORICAL SENSE OF THE SCRIPTURES. HE TAUGHT THAT THE GODHEAD WAS UNITED OR MINGLED WITH THE BODY OF A MAN AND THAT THE LOGOS THE ETERNAL WISDOM SUPPLIED IN THE FLESH THE PLACE AND OFFICE OF A HUMAN SOUL. YET AS THE PROFOUND DOCTOR HAD BEEN TERRIFIED AT HIS OWN RASHNESS APOLLINARIS WAS HEARD TO MUTTER SOME FAINT ACCENTS OF EXCUSE AND EXPLANATION. HE ACQUIESCED IN THE OLD DISTINCTION OF THE GREEK PHILOSOPHERS BETWEEN THE RATIONAL AND SENSITIVE SOUL OF MAN THAT HE MIGHT RESERVE THE LOGOS FOR INTELLECTUAL FUNCTIONS AND EMPLOY THE SUBORDINATE HUMAN PRINCIPLE IN THE MEANER ACTIONS OF ANIMAL LIFE. BUT INSTEAD OF A TEMPORARY AND OCCASIONAL ALLIANCE THEY ESTABLISHED AND WE STILL EMBRACE THE SUBSTANTIAL INDISSOLUBLE AND EVERLASTING UNION OF A PERFECT GOD WITH A PERFECT MAN OF THE SECOND PERSON OF THE TRINITY WITH A REASONABLE SOUL AND HUMAN FLESH

+IN THE BEGINNING OF THE FIFTH CENTURY THE UNITY OF THE TWO NATURES WAS THE PREVAILING DOCTRINE OF THE CHURCH. ON ALL SIDES IT WAS CONFESSED THAT THE MODE OF THEIR COEXISTENCE COULD NEITHER BE REPRESENTED BY OUR IDEAS NOR EXPRESSED BY OUR LANGUAGE. IMPELLED BY RELIGIOUS FRENZY THEY FLED WITH ADVERSE HASTE FROM THE ERROR WHICH THEY MUTUALLY DEEMED MOST DESTRUCTIVE OF TRUTH AND SALVATION. ON EITHER HAND THEY WERE ANXIOUS TO GUARD THEY WERE JEALOUS TO DEFEND THE UNION AND THE DISTINCTION OF THE TWO NATURES AND TO INVENT SUCH FORMS OF SPEECH SUCH SYMBOLS OF DOCTRINE AS WERE LEAST SUSCEPTIBLE OF DOUBT OR AMBIGUITY. THE POVERTY OF IDEAS AND LANGUAGE TEMPTED THEM TO RANSACK ART AND NATURE FOR EVERY POSSIBLE COMPARISON AND EACH COMPARISON MISLEAD THEIR FANCY IN THE EXPLANATION OF AN INCOMPARABLE MYSTERY. IN THE POLEMIC MICROSCOPE AN ATOM IS ENLARGED TO A MONSTER AND EACH PARTY WAS SKILFUL TO EXAGGERATE THE ABSURD OR IMPIOUS CONCLUSIONS THAT MIGHT BE EXTORTED FROM THE PRINCIPLES OF THEIR ADVERSARIES. TO ESCAPE FROM EACH OTHER THEY WANDERED THROUGH MANY A DARK AND DEVIOUS THICKET TILL THEY WERE ASTONISHED BY THE HORRID PHANTOMS OF CERINTHUS AND APOLLINARIS WHO GUARDED THE OPPOSITE ISSUES OF THE THEOLOGICAL LABYRINTH. AS SOON AS THEY BEHELD THE TWILIGHT OF SENSE AND HERESY THEY STARTED MEASURED BACK THEIR STEPS AND WERE AGAIN INVOLVED IN THE GLOOM OF IMPENETRABLE ORTHODOXY. TO PURGE THEMSELVES FROM THE GUILT OR REPROACH OF DAMNABLE ERROR THEY DISAVOWED THEIR CONSEQUENCES EXPLAINED THEIR PRINCIPLES EXCUSED THEIR INDISCRETIONS AND UNANIMOUSLY PRONOUNCED THE SOUNDS OF CONCORD AND FAITH. UNDER THE TUITION OF THE ABBOT SERAPION HE APPLIED HIMSELF TO ECCLESIASTICAL STUDIES WITH SUCH INDEFATIGABLE ARDOR THAT IN THE COURSE OF ONE SLEEPLESS NIGHT HE HAS PERUSED THE FOUR GOSPELS THE CATHOLIC EPISTLES AND THE EPISTLE TO THE ROMANS. WITH THE APPROBATION OF HIS UNCLE HE ASSUMED THE OFFICE AND ACQUIRED THE FAME OF A POPULAR PREACHER

+EXTERMINATE WITH ME THE HERETICS AND WITH YOU I WILL EXTERMINATE THE PERSIANS. AT THESE BLASPHEMOUS SOUNDS THE PILLARS OF THE SANCTUARY WERE SHAKEN. AFTER A SHORT CORRESPONDENCE IN WHICH THE RIVAL PRELATES DISGUISED THEIR HATRED IN THE HOLLOW LANGUAGE OF RESPECT AND CHARITY THE PATRIARCH OF ALEXANDRIA DENOUNCED TO THE PRINCE AND PEOPLE TO THE EAST AND TO THE WEST THE DAMNABLE ERRORS OF THE BYZANTINE PONTIFF. FROM THE EAST MORE ESPECIALLY FROM ANTIOCH HE OBTAINED THE AMBIGUOUS COUNSELS OF TOLERATION AND SILENCE WHICH WERE ADDRESSED TO BOTH PARTIES WHILE THEY FAVORED THE CAUSE OF NESTORIUS. BUT THE VATICAN RECEIVED WITH OPEN ARMS THE MESSENGERS OF EGYPT. THE VANITY OF CELESTINE WAS FLATTERED BY THE APPEAL AND THE PARTIAL VERSION OF A MONK DECIDED THE FAITH OF THE POPE WHO WITH HIS LATIN CLERGY WAS IGNORANT OF THE LANGUAGE THE ARTS AND THE THEOLOGY OF THE GREEKS. HE HAD CONTRACTED AN INTIMATE ALLIANCE WITH MEMNON BISHOP OF EPHESUS. NESTORIUS WHO DEPENDED ON THE NEAR APPROACH OF HIS EASTERN FRIENDS PERSISTED LIKE HIS PREDECESSOR CHRYSOSTOM TO DISCLAIM THE JURISDICTION AND TO DISOBEY THE SUMMONS OF HIS ENEMIES THEY HASTENED HIS TRIAL AND HIS ACCUSER PRESIDED IN THE SEAT OF JUDGMENT. SIXTY EIGHT BISHOPS TWENTY TWO OF METROPOLITAN RANK DEFENDED HIS CAUSE BY A MODEST AND TEMPERATE PROTEST THEY WERE EXCLUDED FROM THE COUNCILS OF THEIR BRETHREN. CANDIDIAN IN THE EMPEROR'S NAME REQUESTED A DELAY OF FOUR DAYS THE PROFANE MAGISTRATE WAS DRIVEN WITH OUTRAGE AND INSULT FROM THE ASSEMBLY OF THE SAINTS. BY THE VIGILANCE OF MEMNON THE CHURCHES WERE SHUT AGAINST THEM AND A STRONG GARRISON WAS THROWN INTO THE CATHEDRAL. THE TROOPS UNDER THE COMMAND OF CANDIDIAN ADVANCED TO THE ASSAULT THE OUTGUARDS WERE ROUTED AND PUT TO THE SWORD BUT THE PLACE WAS IMPREGNABLE THE BESIEGERS RETIRED THEIR RETREAT WAS PURSUED BY A VIGOROUS SALLY THEY LOST THEIR HORSES AND MANY OF THEIR SOLDIERS WERE DANGEROUSLY WOUNDED WITH CLUBS AND STONES. EPHESUS THE CITY OF THE VIRGIN WAS DEFILED WITH RAGE AND CLAMOR WITH SEDITION AND BLOOD THE RIVAL SYNODS DARTED ANATHEMAS AND EXCOMMUNICATIONS FROM THEIR SPIRITUAL ENGINES AND THE COURT OF THEODOSIUS WAS PERPLEXED BY THE ADVERSE AND CONTRADICTORY NARRATIVES OF THE SYRIAN AND EGYPTIAN FACTIONS. DURING A BUSY PERIOD OF THREE MONTHS THE EMPEROR TRIED EVERY METHOD EXCEPT THE MOST EFFECTUAL MEANS OF INDIFFERENCE AND CONTEMPT TO RECONCILE THIS THEOLOGICAL QUARREL. HE ATTEMPTED TO REMOVE OR INTIMIDATE THE LEADERS BY A COMMON SENTENCE OF ACQUITTAL OR CONDEMNATION HE INVESTED HIS REPRESENTATIVES AT EPHESUS WITH AMPLE POWER AND MILITARY FORCE HE SUMMONED FROM EITHER PARTY EIGHT CHOSEN DEPUTIES TO A FREE AND CANDID CONFERENCE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD OF THE CAPITAL FAR FROM THE CONTAGION OF POPULAR FRENZY. BUT THE ORIENTALS REFUSED TO YIELD AND THE CATHOLICS PROUD OF THEIR NUMBERS AND OF THEIR LATIN ALLIES REJECTED ALL TERMS OF UNION OR TOLERATION. HIS PROVIDENCE WILL DISCERN AND PUNISH THE GUILTY. RETURN TO YOUR PROVINCES AND MAY YOUR PRIVATE VIRTUES REPAIR THE MISCHIEF AND SCANDAL OF YOUR MEETING. AT THE STERN COMMAND OF HIS SOVEREIGN. WITHOUT EXPECTING THE ROYAL LICENSE HE ESCAPED FROM HIS GUARDS PRECIPITATELY EMBARKED DESERTED THE IMPERFECT SYNOD AND RETIRED TO HIS EPISCOPAL FORTRESS OF SAFETY AND INDEPENDENCE. BUT HIS ARTFUL EMISSARIES BOTH IN THE COURT AND CITY SUCCESSFULLY LABORED TO APPEASE THE RESENTMENT AND TO CONCILIATE THE FAVOR OF THE EMPEROR. THE FEEBLE SON OF ARCADIUS WAS ALTERNATELY SWAYED BY HIS WIFE AND SISTER BY THE EUNUCHS AND WOMEN OF THE PALACE SUPERSTITION AND AVARICE WERE THEIR RULING PASSIONS AND THE ORTHODOX CHIEFS WERE ASSIDUOUS IN THEIR ENDEAVORS TO ALARM THE FORMER AND TO GRATIFY THE LATTER. FROM THE FIRST MOMENT OF THEIR MONASTIC LIFE THEY HAD NEVER MINGLED WITH THE WORLD OR TROD THE PROFANE GROUND OF THE CITY. BUT IN THIS AWFUL MOMENT OF THE DANGER OF THE CHURCH THEIR VOW WAS SUPERSEDED BY A MORE SUBLIME AND INDISPENSABLE DUTY.

+CHAPTER THREE TWO MISFORTUNES MAKE ONE PIECE OF GOOD FORTUNE. ON THE FOLLOWING MORNING AT DAYBREAK JEAN VALJEAN WAS STILL BY COSETTE'S BEDSIDE HE WATCHED THERE MOTIONLESS WAITING FOR HER TO WAKE. SOME NEW THING HAD COME INTO HIS SOUL. JEAN VALJEAN HAD NEVER LOVED ANYTHING FOR TWENTY FIVE YEARS HE HAD BEEN ALONE IN THE WORLD. HE HAD NEVER BEEN FATHER LOVER HUSBAND FRIEND. IN THE PRISON HE HAD BEEN VICIOUS GLOOMY CHASTE IGNORANT AND SHY. THE HEART OF THAT EX CONVICT WAS FULL OF VIRGINITY. HIS SISTER AND HIS SISTER'S CHILDREN HAD LEFT HIM ONLY A VAGUE AND FAR OFF MEMORY WHICH HAD FINALLY ALMOST COMPLETELY VANISHED HE HAD MADE EVERY EFFORT TO FIND THEM AND NOT HAVING BEEN ABLE TO FIND THEM HE HAD FORGOTTEN THEM. HUMAN NATURE IS MADE THUS THE OTHER TENDER EMOTIONS OF HIS YOUTH IF HE HAD EVER HAD ANY HAD FALLEN INTO AN ABYSS. WHEN HE SAW COSETTE WHEN HE HAD TAKEN POSSESSION OF HER CARRIED HER OFF AND DELIVERED HER HE FELT HIS HEART MOVED WITHIN HIM. ALL THE PASSION AND AFFECTION WITHIN HIM AWOKE AND RUSHED TOWARDS THAT CHILD. HE APPROACHED THE BED WHERE SHE LAY SLEEPING AND TREMBLED WITH JOY. HE SUFFERED ALL THE PANGS OF A MOTHER AND HE KNEW NOT WHAT IT MEANT FOR THAT GREAT AND SINGULAR MOVEMENT OF A HEART WHICH BEGINS TO LOVE IS A VERY OBSCURE AND A VERY SWEET THING. POOR OLD MAN WITH A PERFECTLY NEW HEART. ONLY AS HE WAS FIVE AND FIFTY AND COSETTE EIGHT YEARS OF AGE ALL THAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN LOVE IN THE WHOLE COURSE OF HIS LIFE FLOWED TOGETHER INTO A SORT OF INEFFABLE LIGHT. IT WAS THE SECOND WHITE APPARITION WHICH HE HAD ENCOUNTERED. THE BISHOP HAD CAUSED THE DAWN OF VIRTUE TO RISE ON HIS HORIZON COSETTE CAUSED THE DAWN OF LOVE TO RISE. THE EARLY DAYS PASSED IN THIS DAZZLED STATE. COSETTE ON HER SIDE HAD ALSO UNKNOWN TO HERSELF BECOME ANOTHER BEING POOR LITTLE THING. SHE WAS SO LITTLE WHEN HER MOTHER LEFT HER THAT SHE NO LONGER REMEMBERED HER. LIKE ALL CHILDREN WHO RESEMBLE YOUNG SHOOTS OF THE VINE WHICH CLING TO EVERYTHING SHE HAD TRIED TO LOVE SHE HAD NOT SUCCEEDED. SHE HAD LOVED THE DOG AND HE HAD DIED AFTER WHICH NOTHING AND NOBODY WOULD HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH HER. IT IS A SAD THING TO SAY AND WE HAVE ALREADY INTIMATED IT THAT AT EIGHT YEARS OF AGE HER HEART WAS COLD. IT WAS NOT HER FAULT IT WAS NOT THE FACULTY OF LOVING THAT SHE LACKED ALAS IT WAS THE POSSIBILITY. THUS FROM THE VERY FIRST DAY ALL HER SENTIENT AND THINKING POWERS LOVED THIS KIND MAN. SHE FELT THAT WHICH SHE HAD NEVER FELT BEFORE A SENSATION OF EXPANSION. THE MAN NO LONGER PRODUCED ON HER THE EFFECT OF BEING OLD OR POOR SHE THOUGHT JEAN VALJEAN HANDSOME JUST AS SHE THOUGHT THE HOVEL PRETTY. THESE ARE THE EFFECTS OF THE DAWN OF CHILDHOOD OF JOY. THE NOVELTY OF THE EARTH AND OF LIFE COUNTS FOR SOMETHING HERE. NOTHING IS SO CHARMING AS THE COLORING REFLECTION OF HAPPINESS ON A GARRET. WE ALL HAVE IN OUR PAST A DELIGHTFUL GARRET

+NATURE A DIFFERENCE OF FIFTY YEARS HAD SET A PROFOUND GULF BETWEEN JEAN VALJEAN AND COSETTE DESTINY FILLED IN THIS GULF. DESTINY SUDDENLY UNITED AND WEDDED WITH ITS IRRESISTIBLE POWER THESE TWO UPROOTED EXISTENCES DIFFERING IN AGE ALIKE IN SORROW. ONE IN FACT COMPLETED THE OTHER. COSETTE'S INSTINCT SOUGHT A FATHER AS JEAN VALJEAN'S INSTINCT SOUGHT A CHILD. TO MEET WAS TO FIND EACH OTHER. AT THE MYSTERIOUS MOMENT WHEN THEIR HANDS TOUCHED THEY WERE WELDED TOGETHER. WHEN THESE TWO SOULS PERCEIVED EACH OTHER THEY RECOGNIZED EACH OTHER AS NECESSARY TO EACH OTHER AND EMBRACED EACH OTHER CLOSELY. MOREOVER JEAN VALJEAN HAD CHOSEN HIS REFUGE WELL. THERE HE SEEMED PERFECTLY SECURE. THE CHAMBER WITH A DRESSING ROOM WHICH HE OCCUPIED WITH COSETTE WAS THE ONE WHOSE WINDOW OPENED ON THE BOULEVARD. THIS BEING THE ONLY WINDOW IN THE HOUSE NO NEIGHBORS GLANCES WERE TO BE FEARED FROM ACROSS THE WAY OR AT THE SIDE. IT WAS THIS OLD WOMAN ORNAMENTED WITH THE NAME OF THE PRINCIPAL LODGER AND IN REALITY INTRUSTED WITH THE FUNCTIONS OF PORTRESS WHO HAD LET HIM THE LODGING ON CHRISTMAS EVE. HE HAD REPRESENTED HIMSELF TO HER AS A GENTLEMAN OF MEANS WHO HAD BEEN RUINED BY SPANISH BONDS WHO WAS COMING THERE TO LIVE WITH HIS LITTLE DAUGHTER. HE HAD PAID HER SIX MONTHS IN ADVANCE AND HAD COMMISSIONED THE OLD WOMAN TO FURNISH THE CHAMBER AND DRESSING ROOM AS WE HAVE SEEN. IT WAS THIS GOOD WOMAN WHO HAD LIGHTED THE FIRE IN THE STOVE AND PREPARED EVERYTHING ON THE EVENING OF THEIR ARRIVAL. WEEK FOLLOWED WEEK THESE TWO BEINGS LED A HAPPY LIFE IN THAT HOVEL. COSETTE LAUGHED CHATTERED AND SANG FROM DAYBREAK. CHILDREN HAVE THEIR MORNING SONG AS WELL AS BIRDS. IT SOMETIMES HAPPENED THAT JEAN VALJEAN CLASPED HER TINY RED HAND ALL CRACKED WITH CHILBLAINS AND KISSED IT. THE POOR CHILD WHO WAS USED TO BEING BEATEN DID NOT KNOW THE MEANING OF THIS AND RAN AWAY IN CONFUSION. AT TIMES SHE BECAME SERIOUS AND STARED AT HER LITTLE BLACK GOWN. COSETTE WAS NO LONGER IN RAGS SHE WAS IN MOURNING. SHE HAD EMERGED FROM MISERY AND SHE WAS ENTERING INTO LIFE. SOMETIMES AS HE MADE THE CHILD SPELL HE REMEMBERED THAT IT WAS WITH THE IDEA OF DOING EVIL THAT HE HAD LEARNED TO READ IN PRISON. THIS IDEA HAD ENDED IN TEACHING A CHILD TO READ. THEN THE EX CONVICT SMILED WITH THE PENSIVE SMILE OF THE ANGELS. HE FELT IN IT A PREMEDITATION FROM ON HIGH THE WILL OF SOME ONE WHO WAS NOT MAN AND HE BECAME ABSORBED IN REVERY. GOOD THOUGHTS HAVE THEIR ABYSSES AS WELL AS EVIL ONES. TO TEACH COSETTE TO READ AND TO LET HER PLAY THIS CONSTITUTED NEARLY THE WHOLE OF JEAN VALJEAN'S EXISTENCE. AND THEN HE TALKED OF HER MOTHER AND HE MADE HER PRAY. SHE CALLED HIM FATHER AND KNEW NO OTHER NAME FOR HIM. HE PASSED HOURS IN WATCHING HER DRESSING AND UNDRESSING HER DOLL AND IN LISTENING TO HER PRATTLE. LIFE HENCEFORTH APPEARED TO HIM TO BE FULL OF INTEREST MEN SEEMED TO HIM GOOD AND JUST HE NO LONGER REPROACHED ANY ONE IN THOUGHT HE SAW NO REASON WHY HE SHOULD NOT LIVE TO BE A VERY OLD MAN NOW THAT THIS CHILD LOVED HIM

+HE SAW A WHOLE FUTURE STRETCHING OUT BEFORE HIM ILLUMINATED BY COSETTE AS BY A CHARMING LIGHT. THE BEST OF US ARE NOT EXEMPT FROM EGOTISTICAL THOUGHTS. AT TIMES HE REFLECTED WITH A SORT OF JOY THAT SHE WOULD BE UGLY. THIS IS ONLY A PERSONAL OPINION BUT TO UTTER OUR WHOLE THOUGHT AT THE POINT WHERE JEAN VALJEAN HAD ARRIVED WHEN HE BEGAN TO LOVE COSETTE IT IS BY NO MEANS CLEAR TO US THAT HE DID NOT NEED THIS ENCOURAGEMENT IN ORDER THAT HE MIGHT PERSEVERE IN WELL DOING. HE HAD RETURNED TO PRISON THIS TIME FOR HAVING DONE RIGHT HE HAD QUAFFED FRESH BITTERNESS DISGUST AND LASSITUDE WERE OVERPOWERING HIM EVEN THE MEMORY OF THE BISHOP PROBABLY SUFFERED A TEMPORARY ECLIPSE THOUGH SURE TO REAPPEAR LATER ON LUMINOUS AND TRIUMPHANT BUT AFTER ALL THAT SACRED MEMORY WAS GROWING DIM. WHO KNOWS WHETHER JEAN VALJEAN HAD NOT BEEN ON THE EVE OF GROWING DISCOURAGED AND OF FALLING ONCE MORE. HE LOVED AND GREW STRONG AGAIN. ALAS HE WALKED WITH NO LESS INDECISION THAN COSETTE. HE PROTECTED HER AND SHE STRENGTHENED HIM. THANKS TO HIM SHE COULD WALK THROUGH LIFE THANKS TO HER HE COULD CONTINUE IN VIRTUE. HE WAS THAT CHILD'S STAY AND SHE WAS HIS PROP

+I SIT HERE IN THIS GRACIOUSLY PROPORTIONED LITTLE ROOM WHICH I SHALL LEAVE FOR EVER NEXT WEEK FOR ALREADY YOUR MOTHER BEGINS TO PACK FOR ENGLAND AGAIN. I LOOK OUT UPON THE NEAT FRENCH GARDEN THAT I HAVE WATCHED THE SUMMER ROUND AND BEFORE ME IS THE PILE OF MANUSCRIPT THAT HAS GROWN HERE THE STORY OF MY FRIENDSHIP AND LOVE FOR MARY AND OF ITS TRAGIC END AND OF ALL THE CHANGES OF MY BELIEFS AND PURPOSES THAT HAVE ARISEN OUT OF THAT. I HAD MEANT IT TO BE THE STORY OF MY LIFE BUT HOW LITTLE OF MY LIFE IS IN IT. IT GIVES AT MOST CERTAIN ACUTE POINTS CERTAIN SALIENT ASPECTS. I BEGIN TO REALIZE FOR THE FIRST TIME HOW THIN AND SUGGESTIVE AND SKETCHY A THING ANY NOVEL OR BIOGRAPHY MUST BE. HOW WE MUST SIMPLIFY. EVEN MARY OF WHOM I HAVE LABORED TO TELL YOU SEEMS NOT SO MUCH EXPRESSED AS HIDDEN BENEATH THESE CORRECTED SHEETS. SHE WHO WAS SO ABUNDANTLY LIVING WHO COULD LOVE LIKE A BURST OF SUNSHINE AND GIVE HERSELF AS GOD GIVES THE WORLD IS SHE HERE AT ALL IN THIS PILE OF INDUSTRIOUS INEXPERT WRITING. LIFE IS SO MUCH FULLER THAN ANY BOOK CAN BE. ALL THIS STORY CAN BE READ I SUPPOSE IN A COUPLE OF HOURS OR SO BUT I HAVE BEEN LIVING AND REFLECTING UPON AND RECONSIDERING THE SUBSTANCE OF IT FOR OVER FORTY YEARS. I DO NOT SEE HOW THIS BOOK CAN GIVE YOU ANY IMPRESSION BUT THAT OF A CAREER ALL STRAINED UPON THE FRAME OF ONE TRAGIC RELATIONSHIP YET NO LIFE UNLESS IT IS A VERY SHORT YOUNG LIFE CAN HAVE THAT SIMPLICITY. OF ALL THE MANY THINGS I HAVE FOUND BEAUTIFUL AND WONDERFUL MARY WAS THE MOST WONDERFUL TO ME SHE IS IN MY EXISTENCE LIKE A SUNLIT LAKE SEEN AMONG MOUNTAINS OF ALL THE EDGES BY WHICH LIFE HAS WROUGHT ME SHE WAS THE KEENEST. NEVERTHELESS SHE WAS NOT ALL MY LIFE NOR THE FORM OF ALL MY LIFE. FOR A TIME AFTER HER DEATH I COULD ENDURE NOTHING OF MY HOME I COULD NOT BEAR THE PRESENCE OF YOUR MOTHER OR YOU I HATED THE POSSIBILITY OF CONSOLATION I WENT AWAY INTO ITALY AND IT WAS ONLY BY AN ENORMOUS EFFORT THAT I COULD RESUME MY INTEREST IN THAT SCHEME OF WORK TO WHICH MY LIFE IS GIVEN. BUT IT IS MANIFEST I STILL LIVE I LIVE AND WORK AND FEEL AND SHARE BEAUTY. IT SEEMS TO ME MORE AND MORE AS I LIVE LONGER THAT MOST POETRY AND MOST LITERATURE AND PARTICULARLY THE LITERATURE OF THE PAST IS DISCORDANT WITH THE VASTNESS AND VARIETY THE RESERVES AND RESOURCES AND RECUPERATIONS OF LIFE AS WE LIVE IT TO DAY. IT IS THE EXPRESSION OF LIFE UNDER CRUDER AND MORE RIGID CONDITIONS THAN OURS LIVED BY PEOPLE WHO LOVED AND HATED MORE NAIVELY AGED SOONER AND DIED YOUNGER THAN WE DO. SOLITARY PERSONS AND SINGLE EVENTS DOMINATED THEM AS THEY DO NOT DOMINATE US. WE RANGE WIDER LAST LONGER AND ESCAPE MORE AND MORE FROM INTENSITY TOWARDS UNDERSTANDING. AND ALREADY THIS ASTOUNDING BLOW BEGINS TO TAKE ITS PLACE AMONG OTHER EVENTS AS A THING STRANGE AND TERRIBLE INDEED BUT RELATED TO ALL THE STRANGENESS AND MYSTERY OF LIFE PART OF THE UNIVERSAL MYSTERIES OF DESPAIR AND FUTILITY AND DEATH THAT HAVE TROUBLED MY CONSCIOUSNESS SINCE CHILDHOOD. FOR A TIME THE DEATH OF MARY OBSCURED HER LIFE FOR ME BUT NOW HER LIVING PRESENCE IS MORE IN MY MIND AGAIN. I BEGIN TO SEE THAT IT IS THE REALITY OF HER EXISTENCE AND NOT THE ACCIDENTS OF HER END THAT MATTER MOST

+IT SIGNIFIES LESS THAT SHE SHOULD HAVE FLUNG OUT OF LIFE WHEN IT SEEMED THAT HER LIVING COULD ONLY HAVE MEANT DISASTER TO HERSELF AND TO ALL SHE LOVED THAN THAT ALL HER LIFE SHOULD HAVE BEEN HAMPERED AND RESTRICTED. IT WAS THAT IDEA OF WASTE THAT DOMINATED MY MIND IN A STRANGE INTERVIEW I HAD WITH JUSTIN. FOR IT BECAME NECESSARY FOR ME TO SEE JUSTIN IN ORDER THAT WE SHOULD STAMP OUT THE WHISPERS AGAINST HER THAT FOLLOWED HER DEATH. HE HAD MADE IT SEEM AN ACCIDENTAL DEATH DUE TO AN OVERDOSE OF THE NARCOTIC SHE EMPLOYED BUT HE HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO OBLITERATE ALTOGETHER THE BEGINNINGS OF HIS DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS. THERE HAD BEEN TALK ON THE PART OF CLERKS AND POSSIBLE WITNESSES. BUT OF ALL THAT I NEED NOT TELL YOU HERE WHAT MATTERS IS THAT JUSTIN AND I COULD MEET WITHOUT HATRED OR VIOLENCE. I MET A JUSTIN GREY HAIRED AND IT SEEMED TO ME PHYSICALLY SHRUNKEN MORE THAN EVER SLOW SPEAKING WITH HIS HABIT OF ATTENTIVE SILENCES MORE MARKED AND THAT DARK SCAR SPREAD BEYOND HIS BROWS. WE HAD COME TO OUR PARTING WE HAD DONE OUR BUSINESS WITH AN AFFECTATION OF EMOTIONAL ALOOFNESS AND THEN SUDDENLY HE GRIPPED ME BY THE ARM. STRATTON HE SAID WE TWO WE KILLED HER. WE TORE HER TO PIECES BETWEEN US. I MADE NO ANSWER TO THIS OUTBREAK. WE TORE HER TO PIECES HE REPEATED. IT'S SO DAMNED SILLY. ONE GETS ANGRY LIKE AN ANIMAL. I BECAME GROTESQUELY ANXIOUS TO ASSURE HIM THAT INDEED SHE AND I HAD BEEN AS THEY SAY INNOCENT THROUGHOUT OUR LAST DAY TOGETHER. YOU WERE WRONG IN ALL THAT I SAID SHE KEPT HER FAITH WITH YOU. WE NEVER PLANNED TO MEET AND WHEN WE MET. IF WE HAD BEEN BROTHER AND SISTER INDEED THERE WAS NOTHING. I SUPPOSE HE SAID I OUGHT TO BE GLAD OF THAT. BUT NOW IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER VERY MUCH. AND IT IS UPON THIS EFFECT OF SWEET AND BEAUTIFUL POSSIBILITIES CAUGHT IN THE NET OF ANIMAL JEALOUSIES AND THOUGHTLESS MOTIVES AND ANCIENT RIGID INSTITUTIONS THAT I WOULD END THIS WRITING. IN MARY IT SEEMS TO ME I FOUND BOTH WOMANHOOD AND FELLOWSHIP I FOUND WHAT MANY HAVE DREAMT OF LOVE AND FRIENDSHIP FREELY GIVEN AND I COULD DO NOTHING BUT CLUTCH AT HER TO MAKE HER MY POSSESSION. I WOULD NOT PERMIT HER TO LIVE EXCEPT AS A PART OF MY LIFE. I SEE HER NOW AND UNDERSTAND HER BETTER THAN WHEN SHE WAS ALIVE I RECALL THINGS THAT SHE SAID AND WROTE AND IT IS CLEAR TO ME CLEARER PERHAPS THAN IT EVER WAS TO HER THAT SHE WITH HER RESENTMENT AT BEING IN ANY SENSE PROPERTY HER SELF RELIANT THOUGHT HER INDEPENDENCE OF STANDARD WAS THE VERY PROTOTYPE OF THAT SISTER LOVER WHO MUST REPLACE THE SEDUCTIVE AND ABJECT WOMANHOOD OWNED MASTERED AND DECEIVING WHO WASTE THE WORLD TO DAY. AND SHE WAS OWNED SHE WAS MASTERED SHE WAS FORCED INTO CONCEALMENT. WHAT ALTERNATIVE WAS THERE FOR HER. WHAT ALTERNATIVE IS THERE FOR ANY WOMAN. SHE MIGHT PERHAPS HAVE KEPT HER FREEDOM BY SOME ILL PAID WORK AND AT THE PRICE OF EVERY OTHER IMPULSE IN HER SWIFT AND EAGER NATURE. SHE MIGHT HAVE BECOME ONE OF THOSE POOR NEUTERS AN INDEPENDENT WOMAN LIFE WAS MADE IMPOSSIBLE FOR HER AND SHE WAS FORCED TO DIE ACCORDING TO THE FATE OF ALL UNTIMELY THINGS

+PUT THE SUGAR WITH ONE QUARTER PINT OF WATER IN A SAUCEPAN OVER THE FIRE REMOVE THE SCUM AS IT RISES AND ADD THE LEMON PEEL AND GINGER WITH THE OUTSIDE SCRAPED OFF WHEN THE SYRUP IS TOLERABLY THICK TAKE IT OFF THE FIRE AND WHEN COLD WIPE THE CUCUMBERS DRY AND PUT THEM IN. BOIL THE SYRUP ONCE IN TWO OR THREE DAYS FOR THREE WEEKS STRENGTHEN IT IF REQUIRED AND LET IT BE QUITE COLD BEFORE THE CUCUMBERS ARE PUT IN. GREAT ATTENTION MUST BE PAID TO THE DIRECTIONS IN THE COMMENCEMENT OF THIS RECIPE AS IF THESE ARE NOT PROPERLY CARRIED OUT THE RESULT WILL BE FAR FROM SATISFACTORY. SEASONABLE THIS RECIPE SHOULD BE USED IN JUNE JULY OR AUGUST. ILLUSTRATION SALT MINE AT NORTHWICH COMMON SALT BY THIS WE MEAN SALT USED FOR COOKING PURPOSES WHICH IS FOUND IN GREAT ABUNDANCE BOTH ON LAND AND IN THE WATERS OF THE OCEAN. SOLID ROCKS OF SALT ARE ALSO FOUND IN VARIOUS PARTS OF THE WORLD AND THE COUNTY OF CHESTER CONTAINS MANY OF THESE MINES AND IT IS FROM THERE THAT MUCH OF OUR SALT COMES. SOME SPRINGS ARE SO HIGHLY IMPREGNATED WITH SALT AS TO HAVE RECEIVED THE NAME OF BRINE SPRINGS AND ARE SUPPOSED TO HAVE BECOME SO BY PASSING THROUGH THE SALT ROCKS BELOW GROUND AND THUS DISSOLVING A PORTION OF THIS MINERAL SUBSTANCE. CUSTARD SAUCE FOR SWEET PUDDINGS OR TARTS. MODE PUT THE MILK IN A VERY CLEAN SAUCEPAN AND LET IT BOIL. BEAT THE EGGS STIR TO THEM THE MILK AND POUNDED SUGAR AND PUT THE MIXTURE INTO A JUG. PLACE THE JUG IN A SAUCEPAN OF BOILING WATER KEEP STIRRING WELL UNTIL IT THICKENS BUT DO NOT ALLOW IT TO BOIL OR IT WILL CURDLE. SERVE THE SAUCE IN A TUREEN STIR IN THE BRANDY AND GRATE A LITTLE NUTMEG OVER THE TOP. SUFFICIENT THIS QUANTITY FOR TWO FRUIT TARTS OR ONE PUDDING. DUTCH SAUCE FOR FISH. MODE PUT ALL THE INGREDIENTS EXCEPT THE LEMON JUICE INTO A STEW PAN SET IT OVER THE FIRE AND KEEP CONTINUALLY STIRRING. WHEN IT IS SUFFICIENTLY THICK TAKE IT OFF AS IT SHOULD NOT BOIL. IF HOWEVER IT HAPPENS TO CURDLE STRAIN THE SAUCE THROUGH A TAMMY ADD THE LEMON JUICE AND SERVE. TARRAGON VINEGAR MAY BE USED INSTEAD OF PLAIN AND BY MANY IS CONSIDERED FAR PREFERABLE. NOTE THIS SAUCE MAY BE POURED HOT OVER SALAD AND LEFT TO GET QUITE COLD WHEN IT SHOULD BE THICK SMOOTH AND SOMEWHAT STIFF. EXCELLENT SALADS MAY BE MADE OF HARD EGGS OR THE REMAINS OF SALT FISH FLAKED NICELY FROM THE BONE BY POURING OVER A LITTLE OF THE ABOVE MIXTURE WHEN HOT AND ALLOWING IT TO COOL. ILLUSTRATION THE LEMON. THE LEMON THIS FRUIT IS A NATIVE OF ASIA AND IS MENTIONED BY VIRGIL AS AN ANTIDOTE TO POISON. IT IS HARDIER THAN THE ORANGE AND AS ONE OF THE CITRON TRIBE WAS BROUGHT INTO EUROPE BY THE ARABIANS. THE LEMON WAS FIRST CULTIVATED IN ENGLAND IN THE BEGINNING OF THE SEVENTEENTH CENTURY AND IS NOW OFTEN TO BE FOUND IN OUR GREEN HOUSES. THE KIND COMMONLY SOLD HOWEVER IS IMPORTED FROM PORTUGAL SPAIN AND THE AZORES. SOME ALSO COME FROM SAINT HELENA BUT THOSE FROM SPAIN ARE ESTEEMED THE BEST. THIS JUICE WHICH IS CALLED CITRIC ACID MAY BE PRESERVED IN BOTTLES FOR A CONSIDERABLE TIME BY COVERING IT WITH A THIN STRATUM OF OIL. SHRUB IS MADE FROM IT WITH RUM AND SUGAR. GREEN DUTCH SAUCE OR HOLLANDAISE VERTE. TO PICKLE EGGS. MODE BOIL THE EGGS FOR TWELVE MINUTES THEN DIP THEM INTO COLD WATER AND TAKE OFF THE SHELLS. PUT THE VINEGAR WITH THE PEPPER AND GINGER INTO A STEWPAN AND LET IT SIMMER FOR TEN MINUTES

+SEASONABLE THIS SHOULD BE MADE ABOUT EASTER AS AT THIS TIME EGGS ARE PLENTIFUL AND CHEAP. A STORE OF PICKLED EGGS WILL BE FOUND VERY USEFUL AND ORNAMENTAL IN SERVING WITH MANY FIRST AND SECOND COURSE DISHES. ILLUSTRATION GINGER. THE GINGER PLANT KNOWN TO NATURALISTS AS ZINGIBER OFFICINALE IS A NATIVE OF THE EAST AND WEST INDIES. IT GROWS SOMEWHAT LIKE THE LILY OF THE VALLEY BUT ITS HEIGHT IS ABOUT THREE FEET. IN JAMAICA IT FLOWERS ABOUT AUGUST OR SEPTEMBER FADING ABOUT THE END OF THE YEAR. THE FLESHY CREEPING ROOTS WHICH FORM THE GINGER OF COMMERCE ARE IN A PROPER STATE TO BE DUG WHEN THE STALKS ARE ENTIRELY WITHERED. GINGER IS GENERALLY CONSIDERED AS LESS PUNGENT AND HEATING TO THE SYSTEM THAN MIGHT HE EXPECTED FROM ITS EFFECTS ON THE ORGANS OF TASTE AND IT IS FREQUENTLY USED WITH CONSIDERABLE EFFECT AS AN ANTI SPASMODIC AND CARMINATIVE. EGG BALLS FOR SOUPS AND MADE DISHES. MODE BOIL SIX EGGS FOR TWENTY MINUTES STRIP OFF THE SHELLS TAKE THE YOLKS AND POUND THEM IN A MORTAR. BEAT THE YOLKS OF THE OTHER TWO EGGS ADD THEM WITH A LITTLE FLOUR AND SALT TO THOSE POUNDED MIX ALL WELL TOGETHER AND ROLL INTO BALLS.

STRIP OFF THE SHELLS CHOP THE EGGS INTO SMALL PIECES NOT HOWEVER TOO FINE. LEMON JUICE MAY BE ADDED AT PLEASURE. EPICUREAN SAUCE FOR STEAKS CHOPS GRAVIES OR FISH. MODE PUT THE WHOLE OF THE INGREDIENTS INTO A BOTTLE AND LET IT REMAIN FOR A FORTNIGHT IN A WARM PLACE OCCASIONALLY SHAKING UP THE CONTENTS. STRAIN AND BOTTLE OFF FOR USE. ILLUSTRATION SHALOT. IT IS A BULBOUS ROOT AND WHEN FULL GROWN ITS LEAVES WITHER IN JULY. THEY OUGHT TO BE TAKEN UP IN THE AUTUMN AND WHEN DRIED IN THE HOUSE WILL KEEP TILL SPRING. IT IS CALLED BY OLD AUTHORS THE BARREN ONION AND IS USED IN SAUCES AND PICKLES SOUPS AND MADE DISHES AND AS AN ACCOMPANIMENT TO CHOPS AND STEAKS. ESPAGNOLE OR BROWN SPANISH SAUCE. ADD THE REMAINDER OF THE STOCK WITH THE SPICES HERBS SHALOTS AND ONIONS AND SIMMER VERY GENTLY FOR ONE HOUR. STRAIN AND SKIM OFF EVERY PARTICLE OF FAT AND WHEN REQUIRED FOR USE THICKEN WITH BUTTER AND FLOUR OR WITH A LITTLE ROUX. ADD THE WINE AND IF NECESSARY A SEASONING OF CAYENNE WHEN IT WILL BE READY TO SERVE. NOTE THE WINE IN THIS SAUCE MAY BE OMITTED AND AN ONION SLICED AND FRIED OF A NICE BROWN SUBSTITUTED FOR IT. THIS SAUCE OR GRAVY IS USED FOR MANY DISHES AND WITH MOST PEOPLE IS A GENERAL FAVOURITE. FENNEL SAUCE FOR MACKEREL. SIMMER FOR A MINUTE OR TWO AND SERVE IN A TUREEN. SUFFICIENT TO SERVE WITH FIVE OR SIX MACKEREL. ILLUSTRATION FENNEL. IT IS VERY GENERALLY CULTIVATED IN GARDENS AND HAS MUCH IMPROVED ON ITS ORIGINAL FORM. VARIOUS DISHES ARE FREQUENTLY ORNAMENTED AND GARNISHED WITH ITS GRACEFUL LEAVES AND THESE ARE SOMETIMES BOILED IN SOUPS ALTHOUGH IT IS MORE USUALLY CONFINED IN ENGLISH COOKERY TO THE MACKEREL SAUCE AS HERE GIVEN. FISH SAUCE. MODE PUT ALL THE INGREDIENTS INTO A LARGE BOTTLE AND SHAKE WELL EVERY DAY FOR A FORTNIGHT. FORCEMEAT BALLS FOR FISH SOUPS

MUSHROOMS OR TRUFFLES MAY BE ADDED. SUFFICIENT FOR TWO SMALL PIES. ILLUSTRATION MARJORAM. MARJORAM ALTHOUGH THERE ARE SEVERAL SPECIES OF MARJORAM THAT WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE SWEET OR KNOTTED MARJORAM IS THE ONE USUALLY PREFERRED IN COOKERY. IT IS A NATIVE OF PORTUGAL AND WHEN ITS LEAVES ARE USED AS A SEASONING HERB THEY HAVE AN AGREEABLE AROMATIC FLAVOUR. MODE MIX ALL THE INGREDIENTS WELL TOGETHER CAREFULLY MINCING THEM VERY FINELY BEAT UP THE EGG MOISTEN WITH IT AND WORK THE WHOLE VERY SMOOTHLY TOGETHER.

OTHER SWEET HERBS ARE CULTIVATED FOR PURPOSES OF MEDICINE AND PERFUMERY THEY ARE MOST GRATEFUL BOTH TO THE ORGANS OF TASTE AND SMELLING AND TO THE AROMA DERIVED FROM THEM IS DUE IN A GREAT MEASURE THE SWEET AND EXHILARATING FRAGRANCE OF OUR FLOWERY MEADS.

+PUT THE UDDER INTO A STEWPAN WITH SUFFICIENT WATER TO COVER IT LET IT STEW GENTLY TILL QUITE DONE WHEN TAKE IT OUT TO COOL. THAT PORTION WHICH PASSES THROUGH THE STRAINER IS ONE OF THE THREE INGREDIENTS OF WHICH FRENCH FORCEMEATS ARE GENERALLY COMPOSED BUT MANY COOKS SUBSTITUTE BUTTER FOR THIS BEING A LESS TROUBLESOME AND MORE EXPEDITIOUS MODE OF PREPARATION. ILLUSTRATION PESTLE AND MORTAR. PESTLE AND MORTAR NO COOKERY CAN BE PERFECTLY PERFORMED WITHOUT THE AID OF THE USEFUL INSTRUMENTS SHOWN IN THE ENGRAVING. FOR POUNDING THINGS SUFFICIENTLY FINE THEY ARE INVALUABLE AND THE USE OF THEM WILL SAVE A GOOD DEAL OF TIME BESIDES INCREASING THE EXCELLENCE OF THE PREPARATIONS. THEY ARE MADE OF IRON AND IN THAT MATERIAL CAN BE BOUGHT CHEAP BUT AS THESE ARE NOT AVAILABLE FOR ALL PURPOSES WE SHOULD RECOMMEND AS MORE ECONOMICAL IN THE END THOSE MADE OF WEDGWOOD ALTHOUGH THESE ARE CONSIDERABLY MORE EXPENSIVE THAN THE FORMER. VEAL QUENELLES. WHEN THE THREE INGREDIENTS ARE PROPERLY PREPARED POUND THEM ALTOGETHER IN A MORTAR FOR SOME TIME FOR THE MORE QUENELLES ARE POUNDED THE MORE DELICATE THEY ARE. IF THE QUENELLES ARE NOT FIRM ENOUGH ADD THE YOLK OF ANOTHER EGG BUT OMIT THE WHITE WHICH ONLY MAKES THEM HOLLOW AND PUFFY INSIDE. IN THE PREPARATION OF THIS RECIPE IT WOULD BE WELL TO BEAR IN MIND THAT THE INGREDIENTS ARE TO BE WELL POUNDED AND SEASONED AND MUST BE MADE HARD OR SOFT ACCORDING TO THE DISHES THEY ARE INTENDED FOR. FOR BROWN OR WHITE RAGOUTS THEY SHOULD BE FIRM AND WHEN THE QUENELLES ARE USED VERY SMALL EXTREME DELICACY WILL BE NECESSARY IN THEIR PREPARATION. NOTE THE FRENCH ARE NOTED FOR THEIR SKILL IN MAKING FORCEMEATS ONE OF THE PRINCIPAL CAUSES OF THEIR SUPERIORITY IN THIS RESPECT BEING THAT THEY POUND ALL THE INGREDIENTS SO DILIGENTLY AND THOROUGHLY. ANY ONE WITH THE SLIGHTEST PRETENSIONS TO REFINED COOKERY MUST IN THIS PARTICULAR IMPLICITLY FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE OF OUR FRIENDS ACROSS THE CHANNEL. FORCEMEAT OR QUENELLES FOR TURTLE SOUP. FRIED BREAD CRUMBS. CUT THE BREAD INTO THIN SLICES PLACE THEM IN A COOL OVEN OVERNIGHT AND WHEN THOROUGHLY DRY AND CRISP ROLL THEM DOWN INTO FINE CRUMBS. DIRECTLY THEY ARE DONE LIFT THEM OUT WITH A SLICE AND DRAIN THEM BEFORE THE FIRE FROM ALL GREASY MOISTURE. WHEN QUITE CRISP THEY ARE READY FOR USE. THE FAT THEY ARE FRIED IN SHOULD BE CLEAR AND THE CRUMBS SHOULD NOT HAVE THE SLIGHTEST APPEARANCE OR TASTE OF HAVING BEEN IN THE LEAST DEGREE BURNT. FRIED BREAD FOR BORDERS. PROCEED AS ABOVE BY FRYING SOME SLICES OF BREAD CUT IN ANY FANCIFUL SHAPE. WHEN QUITE CRISP DIP ONE SIDE OF THE SIPPET INTO THE BEATEN WHITE OF AN EGG MIXED WITH A LITTLE FLOUR AND PLACE IT ON THE EDGE OF THE DISH. CONTINUE IN THIS MANNER TILL THE BORDER IS COMPLETED ARRANGING THE SIPPETS A PALE AND A DARK ONE ALTERNATELY.

+WE WERE TAKING THEM SOME PROVISIONS AS THEY HAD COME TO LIVE ON A WILD PLACE WHERE THERE WAS NO GARDEN OR CHICKEN HOUSE AND VERY LITTLE BROKEN LAND. FUCHS BROUGHT UP A SACK OF POTATOES AND A PIECE OF CURED PORK FROM THE CELLAR AND GRANDMOTHER PACKED SOME LOAVES OF SATURDAY'S BREAD A JAR OF BUTTER AND SEVERAL PUMPKIN PIES IN THE STRAW OF THE WAGON BOX. WE CLAMBERED UP TO THE FRONT SEAT AND JOLTED OFF PAST THE LITTLE POND AND ALONG THE ROAD THAT CLIMBED TO THE BIG CORNFIELD. I COULD HARDLY WAIT TO SEE WHAT LAY BEYOND THAT CORNFIELD BUT THERE WAS ONLY RED GRASS LIKE OURS AND NOTHING ELSE THOUGH FROM THE HIGH WAGON SEAT ONE COULD LOOK OFF A LONG WAY. THE ROAD RAN ABOUT LIKE A WILD THING AVOIDING THE DEEP DRAWS CROSSING THEM WHERE THEY WERE WIDE AND SHALLOW. AND ALL ALONG IT WHEREVER IT LOOPED OR RAN THE SUNFLOWERS GREW SOME OF THEM WERE AS BIG AS LITTLE TREES WITH GREAT ROUGH LEAVES AND MANY BRANCHES WHICH BORE DOZENS OF BLOSSOMS. THEY MADE A GOLD RIBBON ACROSS THE PRAIRIE. OCCASIONALLY ONE OF THE HORSES WOULD TEAR OFF WITH HIS TEETH A PLANT FULL OF BLOSSOMS AND WALK ALONG MUNCHING IT THE FLOWERS NODDING IN TIME TO HIS BITES AS HE ATE DOWN TOWARD THEM. THEIR AGREEMENT WITH HIM WAS MADE BEFORE THEY LEFT THE OLD COUNTRY THROUGH A COUSIN OF HIS WHO WAS ALSO A RELATIVE OF MISSUS SHIMERDA. THEY COULD NOT SPEAK ENOUGH ENGLISH TO ASK FOR ADVICE OR EVEN TO MAKE THEIR MOST PRESSING WANTS KNOWN. IF THEY'RE NICE PEOPLE I HATE TO THINK OF THEM SPENDING THE WINTER IN THAT CAVE OF KRAJIEK'S SAID GRANDMOTHER. IT'S NO BETTER THAN A BADGER HOLE NO PROPER DUGOUT AT ALL. AND I HEAR HE'S MADE THEM PAY TWENTY DOLLARS FOR HIS OLD COOKSTOVE THAT AIN'T WORTH TEN. YES'M SAID OTTO AND HE'S SOLD EM HIS OXEN AND HIS TWO BONY OLD HORSES FOR THE PRICE OF GOOD WORK TEAMS. NOW WHY IS THAT OTTO. FUCHS WRINKLED HIS BROW AND NOSE. IT WOULD TAKE ME A LONG WHILE TO EXPLAIN. THE LAND WAS GROWING ROUGHER I WAS TOLD THAT WE WERE APPROACHING SQUAW CREEK WHICH CUT UP THE WEST HALF OF THE SHIMERDAS PLACE AND MADE THE LAND OF LITTLE VALUE FOR FARMING. AS WE APPROACHED THE SHIMERDAS DWELLING I COULD STILL SEE NOTHING BUT ROUGH RED HILLOCKS AND DRAWS WITH SHELVING BANKS AND LONG ROOTS HANGING OUT WHERE THE EARTH HAD CRUMBLED AWAY. PRESENTLY AGAINST ONE OF THOSE BANKS I SAW A SORT OF SHED THATCHED WITH THE SAME WINE COLORED GRASS THAT GREW EVERYWHERE. NEAR IT TILTED A SHATTERED WINDMILL FRAME THAT HAD NO WHEEL. WE DROVE UP TO THIS SKELETON TO TIE OUR HORSES AND THEN I SAW A DOOR AND WINDOW SUNK DEEP IN THE DRAW BANK. A LITTLE GIRL TRAILED ALONG BEHIND THEM. THE WOMAN HAD ON HER HEAD THE SAME EMBROIDERED SHAWL WITH SILK FRINGES THAT SHE WORE WHEN SHE HAD ALIGHTED FROM THE TRAIN AT BLACK HAWK. SHE WAS NOT OLD BUT SHE WAS CERTAINLY NOT YOUNG. HER FACE WAS ALERT AND LIVELY WITH A SHARP CHIN AND SHREWD LITTLE EYES. SHE SHOOK GRANDMOTHER'S HAND ENERGETICALLY. VERY GLAD VERY GLAD SHE EJACULATED. IMMEDIATELY SHE POINTED TO THE BANK OUT OF WHICH SHE HAD EMERGED AND SAID HOUSE NO GOOD HOUSE NO GOOD. GRANDMOTHER NODDED CONSOLINGLY. YOU'LL GET FIXED UP COMFORTABLE AFTER WHILE MISSUS SHIMERDA MAKE GOOD HOUSE. MY GRANDMOTHER ALWAYS SPOKE IN A VERY LOUD TONE TO FOREIGNERS AS IF THEY WERE DEAF

+SHE MADE MISSUS SHIMERDA UNDERSTAND THE FRIENDLY INTENTION OF OUR VISIT AND THE BOHEMIAN WOMAN HANDLED THE LOAVES OF BREAD AND EVEN SMELLED THEM AND EXAMINED THE PIES WITH LIVELY CURIOSITY EXCLAIMING MUCH GOOD MUCH THANK. AND AGAIN SHE WRUNG GRANDMOTHER'S HAND. HE WAS NINETEEN YEARS OLD SHORT AND BROAD BACKED WITH A CLOSE CROPPED FLAT HEAD AND A WIDE FLAT FACE. HIS HAZEL EYES WERE LITTLE AND SHREWD LIKE HIS MOTHER'S BUT MORE SLY AND SUSPICIOUS THEY FAIRLY SNAPPED AT THE FOOD. THE FAMILY HAD BEEN LIVING ON CORNCAKES AND SORGHUM MOLASSES FOR THREE DAYS. THE LITTLE GIRL WAS PRETTY BUT AN TONIA THEY ACCENTED THE NAME THUS STRONGLY WHEN THEY SPOKE TO HER WAS STILL PRETTIER. I REMEMBERED WHAT THE CONDUCTOR HAD SAID ABOUT HER EYES. THEY WERE BIG AND WARM AND FULL OF LIGHT LIKE THE SUN SHINING ON BROWN POOLS IN THE WOOD. HER SKIN WAS BROWN TOO AND IN HER CHEEKS SHE HAD A GLOW OF RICH DARK COLOR. HER BROWN HAIR WAS CURLY AND WILD LOOKING. WITH HIM WAS ANOTHER SHIMERDA SON. EVEN FROM A DISTANCE ONE COULD SEE THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING STRANGE ABOUT THIS BOY. HE WAS BORN LIKE THAT THE OTHERS ARE SMART. AMBROSCH HE MAKE GOOD FARMER. HE STRUCK AMBROSCH ON THE BACK AND THE BOY SMILED KNOWINGLY. AT THAT MOMENT THE FATHER CAME OUT OF THE HOLE IN THE BANK. HE WORE NO HAT AND HIS THICK IRON GRAY HAIR WAS BRUSHED STRAIGHT BACK FROM HIS FOREHEAD. IT WAS SO LONG THAT IT BUSHED OUT BEHIND HIS EARS AND MADE HIM LOOK LIKE THE OLD PORTRAITS I REMEMBERED IN VIRGINIA. HE WAS TALL AND SLENDER AND HIS THIN SHOULDERS STOOPED. HE LOOKED AT US UNDERSTANDINGLY THEN TOOK GRANDMOTHER'S HAND AND BENT OVER IT. I NOTICED HOW WHITE AND WELL SHAPED HIS OWN HANDS WERE. THEY LOOKED CALM SOMEHOW AND SKILLED. HIS EYES WERE MELANCHOLY AND WERE SET BACK DEEP UNDER HIS BROW. HIS FACE WAS RUGGEDLY FORMED BUT IT LOOKED LIKE ASHES LIKE SOMETHING FROM WHICH ALL THE WARMTH AND LIGHT HAD DIED OUT. IN A MOMENT WE WERE RUNNING UP THE STEEP DRAWSIDE TOGETHER YULKA TROTTING AFTER US. WE STOOD PANTING ON THE EDGE OF THE RAVINE LOOKING DOWN AT THE TREES AND BUSHES THAT GREW BELOW US. THE WIND WAS SO STRONG THAT I HAD TO HOLD MY HAT ON AND THE GIRLS SKIRTS WERE BLOWN OUT BEFORE THEM. SHE LOOKED AT ME HER EYES FAIRLY BLAZING WITH THINGS SHE COULD NOT SAY. NAME WHAT NAME. SHE ASKED TOUCHING ME ON THE SHOULDER. I TOLD HER MY NAME AND SHE REPEATED IT AFTER ME AND MADE YULKA SAY IT. SHE POINTED INTO THE GOLD COTTONWOOD TREE BEHIND WHOSE TOP WE STOOD AND SAID AGAIN WHAT NAME. YULKA CURLED UP LIKE A BABY RABBIT AND PLAYED WITH A GRASSHOPPER. ANTONIA POINTED UP TO THE SKY AND QUESTIONED ME WITH HER GLANCE. I TOLD HER AND SHE REPEATED THE WORD MAKING IT SOUND LIKE ICE. SHE GOT UP ON HER KNEES AND WRUNG HER HANDS. SHE POINTED TO HER OWN EYES AND SHOOK HER HEAD THEN TO MINE AND TO THE SKY NODDING VIOLENTLY. OH I EXCLAIMED BLUE BLUE SKY. SHE CLAPPED HER HANDS AND MURMURED BLUE SKY BLUE EYES AS IF IT AMUSED HER. WHILE WE SNUGGLED DOWN THERE OUT OF THE WIND SHE LEARNED A SCORE OF WORDS. SHE WAS QUICK AND VERY EAGER. WE WERE SO DEEP IN THE GRASS THAT WE COULD SEE NOTHING BUT THE BLUE SKY OVER US AND THE GOLD TREE IN FRONT OF US. IT WAS WONDERFULLY PLEASANT. AFTER ANTONIA HAD SAID THE NEW WORDS OVER AND OVER SHE WANTED TO GIVE ME A LITTLE CHASED SILVER RING SHE WORE ON HER MIDDLE FINGER. ANTONIA REACHED HIM FIRST TOOK HIS HAND AND KISSED IT. WHEN I CAME UP HE TOUCHED MY SHOULDER AND LOOKED SEARCHINGLY DOWN INTO MY FACE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS

+MEN WHO LIVE IN DEMOCRATIC COUNTRIES DO NOT VALUE THE SIMPLE TURBULENT OR COARSE DIVERSIONS IN WHICH THE PEOPLE INDULGE IN ARISTOCRATIC COMMUNITIES SUCH DIVERSIONS ARE THOUGHT BY THEM TO BE PUERILE OR INSIPID. NOR HAVE THEY A GREATER INCLINATION FOR THE INTELLECTUAL AND REFINED AMUSEMENTS OF THE ARISTOCRATIC CLASSES. THEY WANT SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE AND SUBSTANTIAL IN THEIR PLEASURES THEY WANT TO MIX ACTUAL FRUITION WITH THEIR JOY. IN ARISTOCRATIC COMMUNITIES THE PEOPLE READILY GIVE THEMSELVES UP TO BURSTS OF TUMULTUOUS AND BOISTEROUS GAYETY WHICH SHAKE OFF AT ONCE THE RECOLLECTION OF THEIR PRIVATIONS THE NATIVES OF DEMOCRACIES ARE NOT FOND OF BEING THUS VIOLENTLY BROKEN IN UPON AND THEY NEVER LOSE SIGHT OF THEIR OWN SELVES WITHOUT REGRET. AN AMERICAN INSTEAD OF GOING IN A LEISURE HOUR TO DANCE MERRILY AT SOME PLACE OF PUBLIC RESORT AS THE FELLOWS OF HIS CALLING CONTINUE TO DO THROUGHOUT THE GREATER PART OF EUROPE SHUTS HIMSELF UP AT HOME TO DRINK. HE THUS ENJOYS TWO PLEASURES HE CAN GO ON THINKING OF HIS BUSINESS AND HE CAN GET DRUNK DECENTLY BY HIS OWN FIRESIDE. I BELIEVE THE SERIOUSNESS OF THE AMERICANS ARISES PARTLY FROM THEIR PRIDE. IN DEMOCRATIC COUNTRIES EVEN POOR MEN ENTERTAIN A LOFTY NOTION OF THEIR PERSONAL IMPORTANCE THEY LOOK UPON THEMSELVES WITH COMPLACENCY AND ARE APT TO SUPPOSE THAT OTHERS ARE LOOKING AT THEM TOO. WITH THIS DISPOSITION THEY WATCH THEIR LANGUAGE AND THEIR ACTIONS WITH CARE AND DO NOT LAY THEMSELVES OPEN SO AS TO BETRAY THEIR DEFICIENCIES TO PRESERVE THEIR DIGNITY THEY THINK IT NECESSARY TO RETAIN THEIR GRAVITY. BUT I DETECT ANOTHER MORE DEEP SEATED AND POWERFUL CAUSE WHICH INSTINCTIVELY PRODUCES AMONGST THE AMERICANS THIS ASTONISHING GRAVITY. UNDER A DESPOTISM COMMUNITIES GIVE WAY AT TIMES TO BURSTS OF VEHEMENT JOY BUT THEY ARE GENERALLY GLOOMY AND MOODY BECAUSE THEY ARE AFRAID. THIS IS MORE ESPECIALLY THE CASE AMONGST THOSE FREE NATIONS WHICH FORM DEMOCRATIC COMMUNITIES. THEN THERE ARE IN ALL CLASSES A VERY LARGE NUMBER OF MEN CONSTANTLY OCCUPIED WITH THE SERIOUS AFFAIRS OF THE GOVERNMENT AND THOSE WHOSE THOUGHTS ARE NOT ENGAGED IN THE DIRECTION OF THE COMMONWEALTH ARE WHOLLY ENGROSSED BY THE ACQUISITION OF A PRIVATE FORTUNE. AMONGST SUCH A PEOPLE A SERIOUS DEMEANOR CEASES TO BE PECULIAR TO CERTAIN MEN AND BECOMES A HABIT OF THE NATION. WE ARE TOLD OF SMALL DEMOCRACIES IN THE DAYS OF ANTIQUITY IN WHICH THE CITIZENS MET UPON THE PUBLIC PLACES WITH GARLANDS OF ROSES AND SPENT ALMOST ALL THEIR TIME IN DANCING AND THEATRICAL AMUSEMENTS. I DO NOT BELIEVE IN SUCH REPUBLICS ANY MORE THAN IN THAT OF PLATO OR IF THE THINGS WE READ OF REALLY HAPPENED I DO NOT HESITATE TO AFFIRM THAT THESE SUPPOSED DEMOCRACIES WERE COMPOSED OF VERY DIFFERENT ELEMENTS FROM OURS AND THAT THEY HAD NOTHING IN COMMON WITH THE LATTER EXCEPT THEIR NAME. NO MEN ARE FONDER OF THEIR OWN CONDITION. LIFE WOULD HAVE NO RELISH FOR THEM IF THEY WERE DELIVERED FROM THE ANXIETIES WHICH HARASS THEM AND THEY SHOW MORE ATTACHMENT TO THEIR CARES THAN ARISTOCRATIC NATIONS TO THEIR PLEASURES. I AM NEXT LED TO INQUIRE HOW IT IS THAT THESE SAME DEMOCRATIC NATIONS WHICH ARE SO SERIOUS SOMETIMES ACT IN SO INCONSIDERATE A MANNER. THE AMERICANS WHO ALMOST ALWAYS PRESERVE A STAID DEMEANOR AND A FRIGID AIR NEVERTHELESS FREQUENTLY ALLOW THEMSELVES TO BE BORNE AWAY FAR BEYOND THE BOUND OF REASON BY A SUDDEN PASSION OR A HASTY OPINION AND THEY SOMETIMES GRAVELY COMMIT STRANGE ABSURDITIES. THIS CONTRAST OUGHT NOT TO SURPRISE US. THERE IS ONE SORT OF IGNORANCE WHICH ORIGINATES IN EXTREME PUBLICITY. IN DESPOTIC STATES MEN KNOW NOT HOW TO ACT BECAUSE THEY ARE TOLD NOTHING IN DEMOCRATIC NATIONS THEY OFTEN ACT AT RANDOM BECAUSE NOTHING IS TO BE LEFT UNTOLD. THE FORMER DO NOT KNOW THE LATTER FORGET AND THE CHIEF FEATURES OF EACH PICTURE ARE LOST TO THEM IN A BEWILDERMENT OF DETAILS. WHEN A MAN SPEAKS IN THE MIDST OF A GREAT CROWD MANY OF HIS WORDS ARE NOT HEARD OR ARE FORTHWITH OBLITERATED FROM THE MEMORIES OF THOSE WHO HEAR THEM BUT AMIDST THE SILENCE OF A MUTE AND MOTIONLESS THRONG THE SLIGHTEST WHISPER STRIKES THE EAR

+IN DEMOCRACIES MEN ARE NEVER STATIONARY A THOUSAND CHANCES WAFT THEM TO AND FRO AND THEIR LIFE IS ALWAYS THE SPORT OF UNFORESEEN OR SO TO SPEAK EXTEMPORANEOUS CIRCUMSTANCES. IN ARISTOCRACIES EVERY MAN HAS ONE SOLE OBJECT WHICH HE UNCEASINGLY PURSUES BUT AMONGST DEMOCRATIC NATIONS THE EXISTENCE OF MAN IS MORE COMPLEX THE SAME MIND WILL ALMOST ALWAYS EMBRACE SEVERAL OBJECTS AT THE SAME TIME AND THESE OBJECTS ARE FREQUENTLY WHOLLY FOREIGN TO EACH OTHER AS IT CANNOT KNOW THEM ALL WELL THE MIND IS READILY SATISFIED WITH IMPERFECT NOTIONS OF EACH. WHEN THE INHABITANT OF DEMOCRACIES IS NOT URGED BY HIS WANTS HE IS SO AT LEAST BY HIS DESIRES FOR OF ALL THE POSSESSIONS WHICH HE SEES AROUND HIM NONE ARE WHOLLY BEYOND HIS REACH. HE THEREFORE DOES EVERYTHING IN A HURRY HE IS ALWAYS SATISFIED WITH PRETTY WELL AND NEVER PAUSES MORE THAN AN INSTANT TO CONSIDER WHAT HE HAS BEEN DOING. HIS CURIOSITY IS AT ONCE INSATIABLE AND CHEAPLY SATISFIED FOR HE CARES MORE TO KNOW A GREAT DEAL QUICKLY THAN TO KNOW ANYTHING WELL HE HAS NO TIME AND BUT LITTLE TASTE TO SEARCH THINGS TO THE BOTTOM. THUS THEN DEMOCRATIC PEOPLES ARE GRAVE BECAUSE THEIR SOCIAL AND POLITICAL CONDITION CONSTANTLY LEADS THEM TO ENGAGE IN SERIOUS OCCUPATIONS AND THEY ACT INCONSIDERATELY BECAUSE THEY GIVE BUT LITTLE TIME AND ATTENTION TO EACH OF THESE OCCUPATIONS. THE HABIT OF INATTENTION MUST BE CONSIDERED AS THE GREATEST BANE OF THE DEMOCRATIC CHARACTER. CHAPTER SIXTEEN WHY THE NATIONAL VANITY OF THE AMERICANS IS MORE RESTLESS AND CAPTIOUS THAN THAT OF THE ENGLISH. ALL FREE NATIONS ARE VAINGLORIOUS BUT NATIONAL PRIDE IS NOT DISPLAYED BY ALL IN THE SAME MANNER. THE AMERICANS IN THEIR INTERCOURSE WITH STRANGERS APPEAR IMPATIENT OF THE SMALLEST CENSURE AND INSATIABLE OF PRAISE. THE MOST SLENDER EULOGIUM IS ACCEPTABLE TO THEM THE MOST EXALTED SELDOM CONTENTS THEM THEY UNCEASINGLY HARASS YOU TO EXTORT PRAISE AND IF YOU RESIST THEIR ENTREATIES THEY FALL TO PRAISING THEMSELVES. THEIR VANITY IS NOT ONLY GREEDY BUT RESTLESS AND JEALOUS IT WILL GRANT NOTHING WHILST IT DEMANDS EVERYTHING BUT IS READY TO BEG AND TO QUARREL AT THE SAME TIME. IF I SAY TO AN AMERICAN THAT THE COUNTRY HE LIVES IN IS A FINE ONE AY HE REPLIES THERE IS NOT ITS FELLOW IN THE WORLD. IF I APPLAUD THE FREEDOM WHICH ITS INHABITANTS ENJOY HE ANSWERS FREEDOM IS A FINE THING BUT FEW NATIONS ARE WORTHY TO ENJOY IT. THE CENSURE OF FOREIGNERS DOES NOT AFFECT HIM AND THEIR PRAISE HARDLY FLATTERS HIM HIS POSITION WITH REGARD TO THE REST OF THE WORLD IS ONE OF DISDAINFUL AND IGNORANT RESERVE HIS PRIDE REQUIRES NO SUSTENANCE IT NOURISHES ITSELF. IN ARISTOCRATIC COUNTRIES THE GREAT POSSESS IMMENSE PRIVILEGES UPON WHICH THEIR PRIDE RESTS WITHOUT SEEKING TO RELY UPON THE LESSER ADVANTAGES WHICH ACCRUE TO THEM. AS THESE PRIVILEGES CAME TO THEM BY INHERITANCE THEY REGARD THEM IN SOME SORT AS A PORTION OF THEMSELVES OR AT LEAST AS A NATURAL RIGHT INHERENT IN THEIR OWN PERSONS. THEY THEREFORE ENTERTAIN A CALM SENSE OF THEIR SUPERIORITY THEY DO NOT DREAM OF VAUNTING PRIVILEGES WHICH EVERYONE PERCEIVES AND NO ONE CONTESTS AND THESE THINGS ARE NOT SUFFICIENTLY NEW TO THEM TO BE MADE TOPICS OF CONVERSATION. THEY STAND UNMOVED IN THEIR SOLITARY GREATNESS WELL ASSURED THAT THEY ARE SEEN OF ALL THE WORLD WITHOUT ANY EFFORT TO SHOW THEMSELVES OFF AND THAT NO ONE WILL ATTEMPT TO DRIVE THEM FROM THAT POSITION. WHEN AN ARISTOCRACY CARRIES ON THE PUBLIC AFFAIRS ITS NATIONAL PRIDE NATURALLY ASSUMES THIS RESERVED INDIFFERENT AND HAUGHTY FORM WHICH IS IMITATED BY ALL THE OTHER CLASSES OF THE NATION. WHEN ON THE CONTRARY SOCIAL CONDITIONS DIFFER BUT LITTLE THE SLIGHTEST PRIVILEGES ARE OF SOME IMPORTANCE AS EVERY MAN SEES AROUND HIMSELF A MILLION OF PEOPLE ENJOYING PRECISELY SIMILAR OR ANALOGOUS ADVANTAGES HIS PRIDE BECOMES CRAVING AND JEALOUS HE CLINGS TO MERE TRIFLES AND DOGGEDLY DEFENDS THEM. AS AT ANY INSTANT THESE SAME ADVANTAGES MAY BE LOST THEIR POSSESSORS ARE CONSTANTLY ON THE ALERT AND MAKE A POINT OF SHOWING THAT THEY STILL RETAIN THEM

+THE RESTLESS AND INSATIABLE VANITY OF A DEMOCRATIC PEOPLE ORIGINATES SO ENTIRELY IN THE EQUALITY AND PRECARIOUSNESS OF SOCIAL CONDITIONS THAT THE MEMBERS OF THE HAUGHTIEST NOBILITY DISPLAY THE VERY SAME PASSION IN THOSE LESSER PORTIONS OF THEIR EXISTENCE IN WHICH THERE IS ANYTHING FLUCTUATING OR CONTESTED. AN ARISTOCRATIC CLASS ALWAYS DIFFERS GREATLY FROM THE OTHER CLASSES OF THE NATION BY THE EXTENT AND PERPETUITY OF ITS PRIVILEGES BUT IT OFTEN HAPPENS THAT THE ONLY DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE MEMBERS WHO BELONG TO IT CONSIST IN SMALL TRANSIENT ADVANTAGES WHICH MAY ANY DAY BE LOST OR ACQUIRED. THESE PERSONS THEN DISPLAYED TOWARDS EACH OTHER PRECISELY THE SAME PUERILE JEALOUSIES WHICH ANIMATE THE MEN OF DEMOCRACIES THE SAME EAGERNESS TO SNATCH THE SMALLEST ADVANTAGES WHICH THEIR EQUALS CONTESTED AND THE SAME DESIRE TO PARADE OSTENTATIOUSLY THOSE OF WHICH THEY WERE IN POSSESSION

+THE TWO STRAY KITTENS GRADUALLY MAKE THEMSELVES AT HOME. SOMEHOW OR OTHER CAT HAS TAUGHT THEM THAT HE'S IN CHARGE HERE AND HE JUST CHASES THEM FOR FUN NOW AND AGAIN WHEN HE'S NOT BUSY SLEEPING. AS FOR KEEPING CATS IN MY ROOM THAT'S PRETTY WELL FORGOTTEN. FOR ONE THING MOM REALLY LIKES THEM. SHE SNEAKS THE KITTENS SAUCERS OF CREAM AND BITS OF REAL HAMBURGER WHEN NO ONE'S LOOKING AND SHE LIKES TALKING TO THEM IN THE KITCHEN. SHE DOESN'T PICK THEM UP BUT JUST HAVING THEM IN THE ROOM SURE DOESN'T GIVE HER ASTHMA. HE SCALES HIS HAT AT THE LOT OF THEM AND ROARS DOWN THE HALL TO ME HEY DAVEY. WHEN ARE YOU GETTING RID OF THESE CATS I'M NOT FIXING TO START AN ANNEX TO KATE'S CAT HOME. IT'S A REAL LEMON JUST A LOT OF PREACHING ABOUT GOVERNMENT AND CITIZENSHIP. THE SECOND SEMESTER I SWITCH TO A MUSIC COURSE. THIS IS O K WITH THE SCHOOL BUT NOT WITH POP. RIGHT AWAY WHEN I BRING HOME MY NEW PROGRAM HE SAYS HOW COME YOU'RE TAKING ONE LESS COURSE THIS HALF. I EXPLAIN THAT I'M TAKING MUSIC AND ALSO BIOLOGY ALGEBRA ENGLISH AND FRENCH MUSIC HE SNORTS. THAT'S RECREATION NOT A COURSE DO IT ON YOUR OWN TIME. POP IT'S A COURSE. YOU THINK THE SCHOOL SIGNS ME UP FOR AN HOUR OF HOME RECORD PLAYING. THEY MIGHT HE GRUNTS. HE DOES AND FOR ONCE I WIN A ROUND I KEEP MUSIC FOR THIS SEMESTER. I'LL BE LUCKY IF I HAVE TIME TO BREATHE. I GO DOWN TO THE FLOWER SHOP TO GROUSE TO TOM IT'S AFTER VALENTINE'S DAY AND BUSINESS IS SLACK AND THE BOSS IS OUT. WHY DOES POP HAVE TO COME BUTTING INTO MY BUSINESS AT SCHOOL. DOESN'T HE EVEN THINK THE SCHOOL KNOWS WHAT IT'S DOING. SOMETIMES SCHOOLS DO LET KIDS TAKE A LOT OF SOFT COURSES AND THEN THEY'RE OUT ON A LIMB LATER HUH. HE JUST LIKES TO BOSS EVERYTHING I DO. SO HE CARES HUH. BESIDES SAYS TOM HALF THE REASON YOU AND YOUR FATHER ARE ALWAYS BICKERING IS THAT YOU'RE SO MUCH ALIKE ME LIKE HIM SURE. AS LONG AS THERE'S A BONE ON THE FLOOR THE TWO OF YOU WORRY IT. MISTER PALUMBO COMES BACK TO THE SHOP THEN AND TOM GETS BUSY WITH THE PLANTS. I GO HOME WONDERING IF I REALLY AM AT ALL LIKE POP. IT'S FUNNY ABOUT FIGHTS POP AND I CAN GO ALONG REAL SMOOTH AND EASY FOR A WHILE AND I THINK WELL HE REALLY ISN'T A BAD GUY AND I'M GROWING UP WE CAN SEE EYE TO EYE ALL THAT STUFF THEN WHOOSH. I HARDLY KNOW WHAT STARTS IT BUT A FIGHT BOILS UP AND WE'RE BOTH BREATHING FIRE LIKE DRAGONS ON THE LOOSE. WE GET A HOLIDAY WASHINGTON'S BIRTHDAY WHICH IS GOOD BECAUSE THERE'S A T V PROGRAM ON TUESDAY THE NIGHT BEFORE THE HOLIDAY THAT I HARDLY EVER GET TO WATCH IT'S CALLED OUT BEYOND AND THE PEOPLE IN IT ARE VERY REAL NOT JUST GOOD GUYS AND BAD GUYS. THE PROGRAM GOES ON TILL ELEVEN O'CLOCK AND MOM WON'T LET ME WATCH IT ON SCHOOL NIGHTS. I GET THE PILLOWS COMFORTABLY ARRANGED ON THE FLOOR WITH A BIG BOTTLE OF SODA AND A BAG OF POPCORN WITHIN EASY REACH. HE'S TAKING THE KID FOR A WALK WHEN A THUNDERSTORM BLOWS UP. HE SIGNS OFF FINALLY AND UP COMES POP. HERE DAVEY OLD BOY WE CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT TONIGHT THE GOVERNOR AND THE MAYOR ARE ON A T V DEBATE ABOUT NEW YORK CITY SCHOOL REORGANIZATION. I JUMP UP TIPPING OVER THE BOTTLE OF SODA ON THE WAY. POP GOES RIGHT ON TUNING HIS CHANNEL. THAT'S THE LAST STRAW. POP LOOKS AT ME PRISSILY. YOU'RE GETTING ALTOGETHER TOO UPSET ABOUT THESE PROGRAMS STOP IT AND BEHAVE YOURSELF. GO GET A SPONGE TO MOP UP THE SODA. IT'S YOUR FAULT MOP IT UP YOURSELF. I'M TOO MAD NOW TO CARE WHAT I SAY I CHARGE DOWN THE HALL TO MY ROOM AND SLAM THE DOOR. I HEAR THE T V GOING FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN POP TURNS IT OFF AND GOES IN THE KITCHEN TO TALK TO MOM. IN A LITTLE WHILE HE COMES DOWN AND KNOCKS ON MY DOOR. KNOCKS THAT'S SOMETHING USUALLY HE JUST BARGES IN. YOUR MOTHER SAYS SHE TOLD YOU YOU COULD WATCH THAT PROGRAM WHATEVER IT WAS SO O K GO AHEAD YOU CAN FINISH IT. YEAH IT'S ABOUT OVER BY NOW. I'M STILL SORE AND BESIDES POP'S STILL STANDING IN MY DOOR SO I FIGURE THERE'S A HITCH IN THIS SOMEWHERE

HE SAYS HEREAFTER I WILL ONLY TURN OFF YOUR T V PROGRAMS BEFORE THEY START NOT IN THE MIDDLE. JUST AS I GET THE T V ON AND SETTLE DOWN THE DOORBELL RINGS. GOODNESS WHO COULD THAT BE SO LATE SAYS MOM. I TURN OFF THE TELEVISION SET I'VE LOST TRACK OF WHAT'S HAPPENING AND IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE THE GRANDFATHER WHO'S THE SPOOK AFTER ALL. IT'S THE FIRST TIME HILDA HAS BEEN TO OUR HOUSE AND TOM INTRODUCES HER AROUND. HILDA CAME TO THE BEACH WITH US I SAY. I TOLD TOM WE SHOULDN'T COME SO LATE SAYS HILDA. HILDA SITS ON THE SOFA WHERE CAT IS CURLED UP. HE LOOKS AT HER PUTS HIS HEAD BACK AND GOES ON SLEEPING. TOM STIRS HIS COFFEE VIGOROUSLY AND TAKES ONE SIP AND PUTS THE CUP DOWN. POP DOESN'T LOOK AS SURPRISED AS I DO CONGRATULATIONS HE SAYS. TOM SAYS THANKS AND LOOKS AT HILDA AND SHE BLUSHES REALLY. TOM DRINKS A LITTLE MORE COFFEE AND THEN HE GOES ON THE TROUBLE IS I CAN'T GET MARRIED ON THIS FLOWER SHOP JOB. DOESN'T PAY ENOUGH POP ASKS WELL IT'S NOT JUST THE PAY. THE JOB ISN'T GETTING ME ANYWHERE I WANT TO GO. SO THAT'S WHAT WE'VE BEEN TALKING ABOUT ALL EVENING. YOU KNOW I'D GET DRAFTED IN A YEAR OR TWO ANYWAY. I'VE DECIDED TO ENLIST IN THE ARMY. NO NOT IF I ENLIST IN THE ARMY THAT'S FOR THREE YEARS. POP SAYS YOU SOUND LIKE THE RECRUITING OFFICER HIMSELF YOU SURE OF ALL THIS. I'LL HAVE TO CHECK SOME MORE SAYS TOM. THE RECRUITING OFFICER AS A MATTER OF FACT TRIED TO PERSUADE ME TO SHOOT FOR OFFICERS TRAINING AND GO INTO THE ARMY AS A CAREER. WELL SHOVE BACK THE COFFEE CUPS AND I'LL BREAK OUT THAT BOTTLE OF CHAMPAGNE THAT'S BEEN SITTING IN THE ICEBOX SINCE CHRISTMAS. I GO AND RETRIEVE MY SPILLED BOTTLE OF SODA. THERE'S STILL ENOUGH LEFT FOR ONE BIG GLASS. POP BRINGS OUT THE CHAMPAGNE AND THE CORK BLOWS AND HITS THE CEILING. POP FILLS LITTLE GLASSES FOR THEM AND RAISES HIS TO TOM AND HILDA. HERE'S TO YOU A LONG HAPPY LIFE. THAT'S TRUE AND WE ALL DRINK TO CAT

+JEM WILSON'S REPULSE. HOW INFINITE THE WEALTH OF LOVE AND HOPE GARNERED IN THESE SAME TINY TREASURE HOUSES AND OH. WHAT BANKRUPTS IN THE WORLD WE FEEL WHEN DEATH LIKE SOME REMORSELESS CREDITOR SEIZES ON ALL WE FONDLY THOUGHT OUR OWN THE TWINS. THE GHOUL LIKE FEVER WAS NOT TO BE BRAVED WITH IMPUNITY AND BAULKED OF ITS PREY. THE WIDOW HAD RECLAIMED HER CHILDREN HER NEIGHBOURS IN THE GOOD SAMARITAN SENSE OF THE WORD HAD PAID HER LITTLE ARREARS OF RENT AND MADE HER A FEW SHILLINGS BEFOREHAND WITH THE WORLD. SHE DETERMINED TO FLIT FROM THAT CELLAR TO ANOTHER LESS FULL OF PAINFUL ASSOCIATIONS LESS HAUNTED BY MOURNFUL MEMORIES. THE BOARD NOT SO FORMIDABLE AS SHE HAD IMAGINED HAD INQUIRED INTO HER CASE AND INSTEAD OF SENDING HER TO STOKE CLAYPOLE HER HUSBAND'S BUCKINGHAMSHIRE PARISH AS SHE HAD DREADED HAD AGREED TO PAY HER RENT. SO FOOD FOR FOUR MOUTHS WAS ALL SHE WAS NOW REQUIRED TO FIND ONLY FOR THREE SHE WOULD HAVE SAID FOR HERSELF AND THE UNWEANED CHILD WERE BUT RECKONED AS ONE IN HER CALCULATION. SO SHE TOOK IN SOME LITTLE CHILDREN TO NURSE WHO BROUGHT THEIR DAILY FOOD WITH THEM WHICH SHE COOKED FOR THEM WITHOUT WRONGING THEIR HELPLESSNESS OF A CRUMB AND WHEN SHE HAD RESTORED THEM TO THEIR MOTHERS AT NIGHT SHE SET TO WORK AT PLAIN SEWING SEAM AND GUSSET AND BAND AND SAT THINKING HOW SHE MIGHT BEST CHEAT THE FACTORY INSPECTOR AND PERSUADE HIM THAT HER STRONG BIG HUNGRY BEN WAS ABOVE THIRTEEN. HER PLAN OF LIVING WAS SO FAR ARRANGED WHEN SHE HEARD WITH KEEN SORROW THAT WILSON'S TWIN LADS WERE ILL OF THE FEVER. THEY HAD NEVER BEEN STRONG. THEY WERE LIKE MANY A PAIR OF TWINS AND SEEMED TO HAVE BUT ONE LIFE DIVIDED BETWEEN THEM. ONE LIFE ONE STRENGTH AND IN THIS INSTANCE I MIGHT ALMOST SAY ONE BRAIN FOR THEY WERE HELPLESS GENTLE SILLY CHILDREN BUT NOT THE LESS DEAR TO THEIR PARENTS AND TO THEIR STRONG ACTIVE MANLY ELDER BROTHER. STILL WANT HAD NEVER YET COME IN AT THE DOOR TO MAKE LOVE FOR THESE INNOCENTS FLY OUT AT THE WINDOW. NOR WAS THIS THE CASE EVEN NOW WHEN JEM WILSON'S EARNINGS AND HIS MOTHER'S OCCASIONAL CHARRINGS WERE BARELY SUFFICIENT TO GIVE ALL THE FAMILY THEIR FILL OF FOOD. BUT WHEN THE TWINS AFTER AILING MANY DAYS AND CARING LITTLE FOR THEIR MEAT FELL SICK ON THE SAME AFTERNOON WITH THE SAME HEAVY STUPOR OF SUFFERING THE THREE HEARTS THAT LOVED THEM SO EACH FELT THOUGH NONE ACKNOWLEDGED TO THE OTHER THAT THEY HAD LITTLE CHANCE FOR LIFE. MARGARET MET JEM WILSON SEVERAL DAYS AFTER HIS BROTHERS WERE SERIOUSLY ILL AND HEARD FROM HIM THE STATE OF THINGS AT HIS HOME. SHE TOLD MARY OF IT AS SHE ENTERED THE COURT LATE THAT EVENING AND MARY LISTENED WITH SADDENED HEART TO THE STRANGE CONTRAST WHICH SUCH WOEFUL TIDINGS PRESENTED TO THE GAY AND LOVING WORDS SHE HAD BEEN HEARING ON HER WALK HOME. SHE BLAMED HERSELF FOR BEING SO MUCH TAKEN UP WITH VISIONS OF THE GOLDEN FUTURE THAT SHE HAD LATELY GONE BUT SELDOM ON SUNDAY AFTERNOONS OR OTHER LEISURE TIME TO SEE MISSUS WILSON HER MOTHER'S FRIEND AND WITH HASTY PURPOSE OF AMENDMENT SHE ONLY STAYED TO LEAVE A MESSAGE FOR HER FATHER WITH THE NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOUR AND THEN WENT OFF AT A BRISK PACE ON HER WAY TO THE HOUSE OF MOURNING. SHE STOPPED WITH HER HAND ON THE LATCH OF THE WILSONS DOOR TO STILL HER BEATING HEART AND LISTENED TO THE HUSHED QUIET WITHIN. SHE OPENED THE DOOR SOFTLY THERE SAT MISSUS WILSON IN THE OLD ROCKING CHAIR WITH ONE SICK DEATH LIKE BOY LYING ON HER KNEE CRYING WITHOUT LET OR PAUSE BUT SOFTLY GENTLY AS FEARING TO DISTURB THE TROUBLED GASPING CHILD WHILE BEHIND HER OLD ALICE LET HER FAST DROPPING TEARS FALL DOWN ON THE DEAD BODY OF THE OTHER TWIN WHICH SHE WAS LAYING OUT ON A BOARD PLACED ON A SORT OF SOFA SETTEE IN A CORNER OF THE ROOM.

BUT EARNEST AS THE FATHER WAS IN WATCHING THE YET LIVING HE HAD EYES AND EARS FOR ALL THAT CONCERNED THE DEAD AND SPRANG GENTLY UP AND TOOK HIS DEAD SON ON HIS HARD COUCH IN HIS ARMS WITH TENDER STRENGTH AND CARRIED HIM UPSTAIRS AS IF AFRAID OF WAKENING HIM.

THERE'S NONE CAN DIE IN THE ARMS OF THOSE WHO ARE WISHING THEM SORE TO STAY ON EARTH. ALICE AND MARY STOOD BY WITH EYES FIXED ON THE POOR CHILD WHOSE STRUGGLES SEEMED TO INCREASE TILL AT LAST HIS MOTHER SAID WITH A CHOKING VOICE. NATURE'S STRUGGLES WERE SOON EXHAUSTED AND HE BREATHED HIS LITTLE LIFE AWAY IN PEACE. THEN THE MOTHER LIFTED UP HER VOICE AND WEPT.

HE HAD STOLEN OUT DURING THE HALF HOUR ALLOWED AT THE WORKS FOR TEA TO BUY THEM AN ORANGE OR TWO WHICH NOW PUFFED OUT HIS JACKET POCKET.

+OH JEM DON'T GIVE WAY SO I CANNOT BEAR TO SEE YOU. JEM FELT A STRANGE LEAP OF JOY IN HIS HEART AND KNEW THE POWER SHE HAD OF COMFORTING HIM. HE DID NOT SPEAK AS THOUGH FEARING TO DESTROY BY SOUND OR MOTION THE HAPPINESS OF THAT MOMENT WHEN HER SOFT HAND'S TOUCH THRILLED THROUGH HIS FRAME AND HER SILVERY VOICE WAS WHISPERING TENDERNESS IN HIS EAR. DON'T JEM PLEASE DON'T WHISPERED SHE AGAIN BELIEVING THAT HIS SILENCE WAS ONLY ANOTHER FORM OF GRIEF. HE COULD NOT CONTAIN HIMSELF.

MARY I ALMOST LOATHE MYSELF WHEN I FEEL I WOULD NOT GIVE UP THIS MINUTE WHEN MY BROTHERS LIE DEAD AND FATHER AND MOTHER ARE IN SUCH TROUBLE FOR ALL MY LIFE THAT'S PAST AND GONE AND MARY AS SHE TRIED TO RELEASE HER HAND YOU KNOW WHAT MAKES ME FEEL SO BLESSED. SHE DID KNOW HE WAS RIGHT THERE. BUT AS HE TURNED TO CATCH A LOOK AT HER SWEET FACE HE SAW THAT IT EXPRESSED UNFEIGNED DISTRESS ALMOST AMOUNTING TO VEXATION A DREAD OF HIM THAT HE THOUGHT WAS ALMOST REPUGNANCE. HE LET HER HAND GO AND SHE QUICKLY WENT AWAY TO ALICE'S SIDE. PARTLY TO RELIEVE HER FROM HIS PRESENCE AND PARTLY FROM NATURAL DESIRE AND PARTLY PERHAPS FROM A PENITENT WISH TO SHARE TO THE UTMOST HIS PARENTS SORROW HE SOON WENT UP STAIRS TO THE CHAMBER OF DEATH. MARY MECHANICALLY HELPED ALICE IN ALL THE DUTIES SHE PERFORMED THROUGH THE REMAINDER OF THAT LONG NIGHT BUT SHE DID NOT SEE JEM AGAIN. HE REMAINED UP STAIRS UNTIL AFTER THE EARLY DAWN SHOWED MARY THAT SHE NEED HAVE NO FEAR OF GOING HOME THROUGH THE DESERTED AND QUIET STREETS TO TRY AND GET A LITTLE SLEEP BEFORE WORK HOUR. SO LEAVING KIND MESSAGES TO GEORGE AND JANE WILSON AND HESITATING WHETHER SHE MIGHT DARE TO SEND A FEW KIND WORDS TO JEM AND DECIDING THAT SHE HAD BETTER NOT SHE STEPPED OUT INTO THE BRIGHT MORNING LIGHT SO FRESH A CONTRAST TO THE DARKENED ROOM WHERE DEATH HAD BEEN. THEY HAD ANOTHER MORN THAN OURS. MARY LAY DOWN ON HER BED IN HER CLOTHES AND WHETHER IT WAS THIS OR THE BROAD DAYLIGHT THAT POURED IN THROUGH THE SKY WINDOW OR WHETHER IT WAS OVER EXCITEMENT IT WAS LONG BEFORE SHE COULD CATCH A WINK OF SLEEP. HER THOUGHTS RAN ON JEM'S MANNER AND WORDS NOT BUT WHAT SHE HAD KNOWN THE TALE THEY TOLD FOR MANY A DAY BUT STILL SHE WISHED HE HAD NOT PUT IT SO PLAINLY. IT'S VERY HARD ON ME FOR FATHER AND GEORGE WILSON ARE OLD FRIENDS AND JEM AND I HA KNOWN EACH OTHER SINCE WE WERE QUITE CHILDREN. I CANNOT THINK WHAT POSSESSES ME THAT I MUST ALWAYS BE WANTING TO COMFORT HIM WHEN HE'S DOWNCAST AND THAT I MUST GO MEDDLING WI HIM TO NIGHT WHEN SURE ENOUGH IT WAS HIS AUNT'S PLACE TO SPEAK TO HIM. I DON'T CARE FOR HIM AND YET UNLESS I'M ALWAYS WATCHING MYSELF I'M SPEAKING TO HIM IN A LOVING VOICE. I THINK I CANNOT GO RIGHT FOR I EITHER CHECK MYSELF TILL I'M DOWNRIGHT CROSS TO HIM OR ELSE I SPEAK JUST NATURAL AND THAT'S TOO KIND AND TENDER BY HALF.

SUCH THOUGHTS MINGLED IN HER PREDILECTION FOR THE HANDSOME YOUNG MISTER CARSON WHO UNFETTERED BY WORK HOURS LET SCARCELY A DAY PASS WITHOUT CONTRIVING A MEETING WITH THE BEAUTIFUL LITTLE MILLINER HE HAD FIRST SEEN WHILE LOUNGING IN A SHOP WHERE HIS SISTERS WERE MAKING SOME PURCHASES AND AFTERWARDS NEVER RESTED TILL HE HAD FREELY THOUGH RESPECTFULLY MADE HER ACQUAINTANCE IN HER DAILY WALKS. HE WAS TO USE HIS OWN EXPRESSION TO HIMSELF QUITE INFATUATED BY HER AND WAS RESTLESS EACH DAY TILL THE TIME CAME WHEN HE HAD A CHANCE AND OF LATE MORE THAN A CHANCE OF MEETING HER. THERE WAS SOMETHING OF KEEN PRACTICAL SHREWDNESS ABOUT HER WHICH CONTRASTED VERY BEWITCHINGLY WITH THE SIMPLE FOOLISH UNWORLDLY IDEAS SHE HAD PICKED UP FROM THE ROMANCES WHICH MISS SIMMONDS YOUNG LADIES WERE IN THE HABIT OF RECOMMENDING TO EACH OTHER YES. MARY WAS AMBITIOUS AND DID NOT FAVOUR MISTER CARSON THE LESS BECAUSE HE WAS RICH AND A GENTLEMAN. THE OLD LEAVEN INFUSED YEARS AGO BY HER AUNT ESTHER FERMENTED IN HER LITTLE BOSOM AND PERHAPS ALL THE MORE FOR HER FATHER'S AVERSION TO THE RICH AND THE GENTLE. SUCH IS THE CONTRARINESS OF THE HUMAN HEART FROM EVE DOWNWARDS THAT WE ALL IN OUR OLD ADAM STATE FANCY THINGS FORBIDDEN SWEETEST. SO MARY DWELT UPON AND ENJOYED THE IDEA OF SOME DAY BECOMING A LADY AND DOING ALL THE ELEGANT NOTHINGS APPERTAINING TO LADYHOOD. IT WAS A COMFORT TO HER WHEN SCOLDED BY MISS SIMMONDS TO THINK OF THE DAY WHEN SHE WOULD DRIVE UP TO THE DOOR IN HER OWN CARRIAGE TO ORDER HER GOWNS FROM THE HASTY TEMPERED YET KIND DRESSMAKER. IT WAS A PLEASURE TO HER TO HEAR THE GENERAL ADMIRATION OF THE TWO ELDER MISS CARSONS ACKNOWLEDGED BEAUTIES IN BALL ROOM AND STREET ON HORSEBACK AND ON FOOT AND TO THINK OF THE TIME WHEN SHE SHOULD RIDE AND WALK WITH THEM IN LOVING SISTERHOOD. BUT THE BEST OF HER PLANS THE HOLIEST THAT WHICH IN SOME MEASURE REDEEMED THE VANITY OF THE REST WERE THOSE RELATING TO HER FATHER HER DEAR FATHER NOW OPPRESSED WITH CARE AND ALWAYS A DISHEARTENED GLOOMY PERSON. HOW SHE WOULD SURROUND HIM WITH EVERY COMFORT SHE COULD DEVISE OF COURSE HE WAS TO LIVE WITH THEM TILL HE SHOULD ACKNOWLEDGE RICHES TO BE VERY PLEASANT THINGS AND BLESS HIS LADY DAUGHTER. EVERY ONE WHO HAD SHOWN HER KINDNESS IN HER LOW ESTATE SHOULD THEN BE REPAID A HUNDRED FOLD. MEANWHILE HER WORDS OR EVEN MORE HER TONES WOULD MAINTAIN THEIR HOLD ON JEM WILSON'S MEMORY. A THRILL WOULD YET COME OVER HIM WHEN HE REMEMBERED HOW HER HAND HAD RESTED ON HIS ARM

+DURING THE WEEK BEFORE CHRISTMAS JAKE WAS THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON OF OUR HOUSEHOLD FOR HE WAS TO GO TO TOWN AND DO ALL OUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING. BUT ON THE TWENTY FIRST OF DECEMBER THE SNOW BEGAN TO FALL. THE FLAKES CAME DOWN SO THICKLY THAT FROM THE SITTING ROOM WINDOWS I COULD NOT SEE BEYOND THE WINDMILL ITS FRAME LOOKED DIM AND GRAY UNSUBSTANTIAL LIKE A SHADOW. THE SNOW DID NOT STOP FALLING ALL DAY OR DURING THE NIGHT THAT FOLLOWED. THE COLD WAS NOT SEVERE BUT THE STORM WAS QUIET AND RESISTLESS. THE MEN COULD NOT GO FARTHER THAN THE BARNS AND CORRAL. THEY SAT ABOUT THE HOUSE MOST OF THE DAY AS IF IT WERE SUNDAY GREASING THEIR BOOTS MENDING THEIR SUSPENDERS PLAITING WHIPLASHES. JAKE WAS SURE HE COULD GET THROUGH ON HORSEBACK AND BRING HOME OUR THINGS IN SADDLE BAGS BUT GRANDFATHER TOLD HIM THE ROADS WOULD BE OBLITERATED AND A NEWCOMER IN THE COUNTRY WOULD BE LOST TEN TIMES OVER. ANYWAY HE WOULD NEVER ALLOW ONE OF HIS HORSES TO BE PUT TO SUCH A STRAIN. WE DECIDED TO HAVE A COUNTRY CHRISTMAS WITHOUT ANY HELP FROM TOWN. I HAD WANTED TO GET SOME PICTURE BOOKS FOR YULKA AND ANTONIA EVEN YULKA WAS ABLE TO READ A LITTLE NOW. GRANDMOTHER TOOK ME INTO THE ICE COLD STOREROOM WHERE SHE HAD SOME BOLTS OF GINGHAM AND SHEETING. SHE CUT SQUARES OF COTTON CLOTH AND WE SEWED THEM TOGETHER INTO A BOOK. WE BOUND IT BETWEEN PASTEBOARDS WHICH I COVERED WITH BRILLIANT CALICO REPRESENTING SCENES FROM A CIRCUS. FOR TWO DAYS I SAT AT THE DINING ROOM TABLE PASTING THIS BOOK FULL OF PICTURES FOR YULKA. WE HAD FILES OF THOSE GOOD OLD FAMILY MAGAZINES WHICH USED TO PUBLISH COLORED LITHOGRAPHS OF POPULAR PAINTINGS AND I WAS ALLOWED TO USE SOME OF THESE. I TOOK NAPOLEON ANNOUNCING THE DIVORCE TO JOSEPHINE FOR MY FRONTISPIECE. ON THE WHITE PAGES I GROUPED SUNDAY SCHOOL CARDS AND ADVERTISING CARDS WHICH I HAD BROUGHT FROM MY OLD COUNTRY. FUCHS GOT OUT THE OLD CANDLE MOULDS AND MADE TALLOW CANDLES. GRANDMOTHER HUNTED UP HER FANCY CAKE CUTTERS AND BAKED GINGERBREAD MEN AND ROOSTERS WHICH WE DECORATED WITH BURNT SUGAR AND RED CINNAMON DROPS. ON THE DAY BEFORE CHRISTMAS JAKE PACKED THE THINGS WE WERE SENDING TO THE SHIMERDAS IN HIS SADDLE BAGS AND SET OFF ON GRANDFATHER'S GRAY GELDING. WHEN HE MOUNTED HIS HORSE AT THE DOOR I SAW THAT HE HAD A HATCHET SLUNG TO HIS BELT AND HE GAVE GRANDMOTHER A MEANING LOOK WHICH TOLD ME HE WAS PLANNING A SURPRISE FOR ME. THAT AFTERNOON I WATCHED LONG AND EAGERLY FROM THE SITTING ROOM WINDOW. AT LAST I SAW A DARK SPOT MOVING ON THE WEST HILL BESIDE THE HALF BURIED CORNFIELD WHERE THE SKY WAS TAKING ON A COPPERY FLUSH FROM THE SUN THAT DID NOT QUITE BREAK THROUGH. I PUT ON MY CAP AND RAN OUT TO MEET JAKE. WHEN I GOT TO THE POND I COULD SEE THAT HE WAS BRINGING IN A LITTLE CEDAR TREE ACROSS HIS POMMEL. HE USED TO HELP MY FATHER CUT CHRISTMAS TREES FOR ME IN VIRGINIA AND HE HAD NOT FORGOTTEN HOW MUCH I LIKED THEM. BY THE TIME WE HAD PLACED THE COLD FRESH SMELLING LITTLE TREE IN A CORNER OF THE SITTING ROOM IT WAS ALREADY CHRISTMAS EVE. AFTER SUPPER WE ALL GATHERED THERE AND EVEN GRANDFATHER READING HIS PAPER BY THE TABLE LOOKED UP WITH FRIENDLY INTEREST NOW AND THEN. THE CEDAR WAS ABOUT FIVE FEET HIGH AND VERY SHAPELY. WE HUNG IT WITH THE GINGERBREAD ANIMALS STRINGS OF POPCORN AND BITS OF CANDLE WHICH FUCHS HAD FITTED INTO PASTEBOARD SOCKETS. ITS REAL SPLENDORS HOWEVER CAME FROM THE MOST UNLIKELY PLACE IN THE WORLD FROM OTTO'S COWBOY TRUNK. FROM UNDER THE LINING HE NOW PRODUCED A COLLECTION OF BRILLIANTLY COLORED PAPER FIGURES SEVERAL INCHES HIGH AND STIFF ENOUGH TO STAND ALONE. THEY HAD BEEN SENT TO HIM YEAR AFTER YEAR BY HIS OLD MOTHER IN AUSTRIA. OUR TREE BECAME THE TALKING TREE OF THE FAIRY TALE LEGENDS AND STORIES NESTLED LIKE BIRDS IN ITS BRANCHES

+GRANDMOTHER SAID IT REMINDED HER OF THE TREE OF KNOWLEDGE. WE PUT SHEETS OF COTTON WOOL UNDER IT FOR A SNOW FIELD AND JAKE'S POCKET MIRROR FOR A FROZEN LAKE. I CAN SEE THEM NOW EXACTLY AS THEY LOOKED WORKING ABOUT THE TABLE IN THE LAMPLIGHT JAKE WITH HIS HEAVY FEATURES SO RUDELY MOULDED THAT HIS FACE SEEMED SOMEHOW UNFINISHED OTTO WITH HIS HALF EAR AND THE SAVAGE SCAR THAT MADE HIS UPPER LIP CURL SO FEROCIOUSLY UNDER HIS TWISTED MUSTACHE. AS I REMEMBER THEM WHAT UNPROTECTED FACES THEY WERE THEIR VERY ROUGHNESS AND VIOLENCE MADE THEM DEFENSELESS. THESE BOYS HAD NO PRACTICED MANNER BEHIND WHICH THEY COULD RETREAT AND HOLD PEOPLE AT A DISTANCE. THEY HAD ONLY THEIR HARD FISTS TO BATTER AT THE WORLD WITH. OTTO WAS ALREADY ONE OF THOSE DRIFTING CASE HARDENED LABORERS WHO NEVER MARRY OR HAVE CHILDREN OF THEIR OWN

+GRANDFATHER CAME DOWN WEARING A WHITE SHIRT AND HIS SUNDAY COAT. MORNING PRAYERS WERE LONGER THAN USUAL. HE READ THE CHAPTERS FROM SAINT MATTHEW ABOUT THE BIRTH OF CHRIST AND AS WE LISTENED IT ALL SEEMED LIKE SOMETHING THAT HAD HAPPENED LATELY AND NEAR AT HAND. IN HIS PRAYER HE THANKED THE LORD FOR THE FIRST CHRISTMAS AND FOR ALL THAT IT HAD MEANT TO THE WORLD EVER SINCE. HE GAVE THANKS FOR OUR FOOD AND COMFORT AND PRAYED FOR THE POOR AND DESTITUTE IN GREAT CITIES WHERE THE STRUGGLE FOR LIFE WAS HARDER THAN IT WAS HERE WITH US. GRANDFATHER'S PRAYERS WERE OFTEN VERY INTERESTING. HE HAD THE GIFT OF SIMPLE AND MOVING EXPRESSION. BECAUSE HE TALKED SO LITTLE HIS WORDS HAD A PECULIAR FORCE THEY WERE NOT WORN DULL FROM CONSTANT USE. HIS PRAYERS REFLECTED WHAT HE WAS THINKING ABOUT AT THE TIME AND IT WAS CHIEFLY THROUGH THEM THAT WE GOT TO KNOW HIS FEELINGS AND HIS VIEWS ABOUT THINGS. AFTER WE SAT DOWN TO OUR WAFFLES AND SAUSAGE JAKE TOLD US HOW PLEASED THE SHIMERDAS HAD BEEN WITH THEIR PRESENTS EVEN AMBROSCH WAS FRIENDLY AND WENT TO THE CREEK WITH HIM TO CUT THE CHRISTMAS TREE. IT WAS A SOFT GRAY DAY OUTSIDE WITH HEAVY CLOUDS WORKING ACROSS THE SKY AND OCCASIONAL SQUALLS OF SNOW. THERE WERE ALWAYS ODD JOBS TO BE DONE ABOUT THE BARN ON HOLIDAYS AND THE MEN WERE BUSY UNTIL AFTERNOON. THEN JAKE AND I PLAYED DOMINOES WHILE OTTO WROTE A LONG LETTER HOME TO HIS MOTHER. HE ALWAYS WROTE TO HER ON CHRISTMAS DAY HE SAID NO MATTER WHERE HE WAS AND NO MATTER HOW LONG IT HAD BEEN SINCE HIS LAST LETTER. ALL AFTERNOON HE SAT IN THE DINING ROOM. HE WOULD WRITE FOR A WHILE THEN SIT IDLE HIS CLENCHED FIST LYING ON THE TABLE HIS EYES FOLLOWING THE PATTERN OF THE OILCLOTH. HE SPOKE AND WROTE HIS OWN LANGUAGE SO SELDOM THAT IT CAME TO HIM AWKWARDLY. AT ABOUT FOUR O'CLOCK A VISITOR APPEARED MISTER SHIMERDA WEARING HIS RABBIT SKIN CAP AND COLLAR AND NEW MITTENS HIS WIFE HAD KNITTED. HE HAD COME TO THANK US FOR THE PRESENTS AND FOR ALL GRANDMOTHER'S KINDNESS TO HIS FAMILY. THIS FEELING SEEMED COMPLETELY TO TAKE POSSESSION OF MISTER SHIMERDA. I SUPPOSE IN THE CROWDED CLUTTER OF THEIR CAVE THE OLD MAN HAD COME TO BELIEVE THAT PEACE AND ORDER HAD VANISHED FROM THE EARTH OR EXISTED ONLY IN THE OLD WORLD HE HAD LEFT SO FAR BEHIND. HE SAT STILL AND PASSIVE HIS HEAD RESTING AGAINST THE BACK OF THE WOODEN ROCKING CHAIR HIS HANDS RELAXED UPON THE ARMS. HIS FACE HAD A LOOK OF WEARINESS AND PLEASURE LIKE THAT OF SICK PEOPLE WHEN THEY FEEL RELIEF FROM PAIN. GRANDMOTHER INSISTED ON HIS DRINKING A GLASS OF VIRGINIA APPLE BRANDY AFTER HIS LONG WALK IN THE COLD AND WHEN A FAINT FLUSH CAME UP IN HIS CHEEKS HIS FEATURES MIGHT HAVE BEEN CUT OUT OF A SHELL THEY WERE SO TRANSPARENT. MISTER SHIMERDA ROSE CROSSED HIMSELF AND QUIETLY KNELT DOWN BEFORE THE TREE HIS HEAD SUNK FORWARD. HIS LONG BODY FORMED A LETTER S I SAW GRANDMOTHER LOOK APPREHENSIVELY AT GRANDFATHER. HE WAS RATHER NARROW IN RELIGIOUS MATTERS AND SOMETIMES SPOKE OUT AND HURT PEOPLE'S FEELINGS. WHEN HIS DEEP SEEING EYES RESTED ON ME I FELT AS IF HE WERE LOOKING FAR AHEAD INTO THE FUTURE FOR ME DOWN THE ROAD I WOULD HAVE TO TRAVEL. AT NINE O'CLOCK MISTER SHIMERDA LIGHTED ONE OF OUR LANTERNS AND PUT ON HIS OVERCOAT AND FUR COLLAR. HE STOOD IN THE LITTLE ENTRY HALL THE LANTERN AND HIS FUR CAP UNDER HIS ARM SHAKING HANDS WITH US. WHEN HE TOOK GRANDMOTHER'S HAND HE BENT OVER IT AS HE ALWAYS DID AND SAID SLOWLY GOOD WO MAN. HE MADE THE SIGN OF THE CROSS OVER ME PUT ON HIS CAP AND WENT OFF IN THE DARK. AS WE TURNED BACK TO THE SITTING ROOM GRANDFATHER LOOKED AT ME SEARCHINGLY

+THE WEEK FOLLOWING CHRISTMAS BROUGHT IN A THAW AND BY NEW YEAR'S DAY ALL THE WORLD ABOUT US WAS A BROTH OF GRAY SLUSH AND THE GUTTERED SLOPE BETWEEN THE WINDMILL AND THE BARN WAS RUNNING BLACK WATER. THE SOFT BLACK EARTH STOOD OUT IN PATCHES ALONG THE ROADSIDES. I RESUMED ALL MY CHORES CARRIED IN THE COBS AND WOOD AND WATER AND SPENT THE AFTERNOONS AT THE BARN WATCHING JAKE SHELL CORN WITH A HAND SHELLER. IT WAS THE FIRST TIME MISSUS SHIMERDA HAD BEEN TO OUR HOUSE AND SHE RAN ABOUT EXAMINING OUR CARPETS AND CURTAINS AND FURNITURE ALL THE WHILE COMMENTING UPON THEM TO HER DAUGHTER IN AN ENVIOUS COMPLAINING TONE. IN THE KITCHEN SHE CAUGHT UP AN IRON POT THAT STOOD ON THE BACK OF THE STOVE AND SAID YOU GOT MANY SHIMERDAS NO GOT. I THOUGHT IT WEAK MINDED OF GRANDMOTHER TO GIVE THE POT TO HER. AFTER DINNER WHEN SHE WAS HELPING TO WASH THE DISHES SHE SAID TOSSING HER HEAD YOU GOT MANY THINGS FOR COOK. IF I GOT ALL THINGS LIKE YOU I MAKE MUCH BETTER. SHE WAS A CONCEITED BOASTFUL OLD THING AND EVEN MISFORTUNE COULD NOT HUMBLE HER. I WAS SO ANNOYED THAT I FELT COLDLY EVEN TOWARD ANTONIA AND LISTENED UNSYMPATHETICALLY WHEN SHE TOLD ME HER FATHER WAS NOT WELL. MY PAPA SAD FOR THE OLD COUNTRY HE NOT LOOK GOOD. HE NEVER MAKE MUSIC ANY MORE. AT HOME HE PLAY VIOLIN ALL THE TIME FOR WEDDINGS AND FOR DANCE HERE NEVER. WHEN I BEG HIM FOR PLAY HE SHAKE HIS HEAD NO. SOME DAYS HE TAKE HIS VIOLIN OUT OF HIS BOX AND MAKE WITH HIS FINGERS ON THE STRINGS LIKE THIS BUT NEVER HE MAKE THE MUSIC HE DON'T LIKE THIS KAWN TREE. HE NOT WANT TO COME NEV ER SHE BURST OUT MY MAMENKA MAKE HIM COME. ALL THE TIME SHE SAY AMERICA BIG COUNTRY MUCH MONEY MUCH LAND FOR MY BOYS MUCH HUSBAND FOR MY GIRLS. MY PAPA HE CRY FOR LEAVE HIS OLD FRIENDS WHAT MAKE MUSIC WITH HIM. HE LOVE VERY MUCH THE MAN WHAT PLAY THE LONG HORN LIKE THIS SHE INDICATED A SLIDE TROMBONE. THEY GO TO SCHOOL TOGETHER AND ARE FRIENDS FROM BOYS. BUT MY MAMA SHE WANT AMBROSCH FOR BE RICH WITH MANY CATTLE. YOUR MAMA I SAID ANGRILY WANTS OTHER PEOPLE'S THINGS. YOUR GRANDFATHER IS RICH SHE RETORTED FIERCELY WHY HE NOT HELP MY PAPA. AMBROSCH BE RICH TOO AFTER WHILE AND HE PAY BACK HE IS VERY SMART BOY. FOR AMBROSCH MY MAMA COME HERE. AMBROSCH WAS CONSIDERED THE IMPORTANT PERSON IN THE FAMILY. MISSUS SHIMERDA AND ANTONIA ALWAYS DEFERRED TO HIM THOUGH HE WAS OFTEN SURLY WITH THEM AND CONTEMPTUOUS TOWARD HIS FATHER. AMBROSCH AND HIS MOTHER HAD EVERYTHING THEIR OWN WAY. THOUGH ANTONIA LOVED HER FATHER MORE THAN SHE DID ANY ONE ELSE SHE STOOD IN AWE OF HER ELDER BROTHER. AFTER I WATCHED ANTONIA AND HER MOTHER GO OVER THE HILL ON THEIR MISERABLE HORSE CARRYING OUR IRON POT WITH THEM I TURNED TO GRANDMOTHER WHO HAD TAKEN UP HER DARNING AND SAID I HOPED THAT SNOOPING OLD WOMAN WOULD N'T COME TO SEE US ANY MORE. GRANDMOTHER CHUCKLED AND DROVE HER BRIGHT NEEDLE ACROSS A HOLE IN OTTO'S SOCK. SHE'S NOT OLD JIM THOUGH I EXPECT SHE SEEMS OLD TO YOU. NO I WOULD N'T MOURN IF SHE NEVER CAME AGAIN. BUT YOU SEE A BODY NEVER KNOWS WHAT TRAITS POVERTY MIGHT BRING OUT IN EM. IT MAKES A WOMAN GRASPING TO SEE HER CHILDREN WANT FOR THINGS. NOW READ ME A CHAPTER IN THE PRINCE OF THE HOUSE OF DAVID LET'S FORGET THE BOHEMIANS. WE HAD THREE WEEKS OF THIS MILD OPEN WEATHER. THE CATTLE IN THE CORRAL ATE CORN ALMOST AS FAST AS THE MEN COULD SHELL IT FOR THEM AND WE HOPED THEY WOULD BE READY FOR AN EARLY MARKET. ONE MORNING THE TWO BIG BULLS GLADSTONE AND BRIGHAM YOUNG THOUGHT SPRING HAD COME AND THEY BEGAN TO TEASE AND BUTT AT EACH OTHER ACROSS THE BARBED WIRE THAT SEPARATED THEM SOON THEY GOT ANGRY. THEY BELLOWED AND PAWED UP THE SOFT EARTH WITH THEIR HOOFS ROLLING THEIR EYES AND TOSSING THEIR HEADS. EACH WITHDREW TO A FAR CORNER OF HIS OWN CORRAL AND THEN THEY MADE FOR EACH OTHER AT A GALLOP

+THUD THUD WE COULD HEAR THE IMPACT OF THEIR GREAT HEADS AND THEIR BELLOWING SHOOK THE PANS ON THE KITCHEN SHELVES. PRETTY SOON THE FAT STEERS TOOK IT UP AND BEGAN BUTTING AND HORNING EACH OTHER. CLEARLY THE AFFAIR HAD TO BE STOPPED. THE BIG STORM OF THE WINTER BEGAN ON MY ELEVENTH BIRTHDAY THE TWENTIETH OF JANUARY. WHEN I WENT DOWN TO BREAKFAST THAT MORNING JAKE AND OTTO CAME IN WHITE AS SNOW MEN BEATING THEIR HANDS AND STAMPING THEIR FEET. THEY BEGAN TO LAUGH BOISTEROUSLY WHEN THEY SAW ME CALLING. YOU'VE GOT A BIRTHDAY PRESENT THIS TIME JIM AND NO MISTAKE. THEY WAS A FULL GROWN BLIZZARD ORDERED FOR YOU. ALL DAY THE STORM WENT ON. THE SNOW DID NOT FALL THIS TIME IT SIMPLY SPILLED OUT OF HEAVEN LIKE THOUSANDS OF FEATHER BEDS BEING EMPTIED. NEXT DAY OUR MEN HAD TO SHOVEL UNTIL NOON TO REACH THE BARN AND THE SNOW WAS STILL FALLING. THERE HAD NOT BEEN SUCH A STORM IN THE TEN YEARS MY GRANDFATHER HAD LIVED IN NEBRASKA. WE COULD NOT SO MUCH AS SEE THE CORRALS BUT WE KNEW THE STEERS WERE OVER THERE HUDDLED TOGETHER UNDER THE NORTH BANK. OUR FEROCIOUS BULLS SUBDUED ENOUGH BY THIS TIME WERE PROBABLY WARMING EACH OTHER'S BACKS. THIS'LL TAKE THE BILE OUT OF EM FUCHS REMARKED GLEEFULLY. AT NOON THAT DAY THE HENS HAD NOT BEEN HEARD FROM. AFTER DINNER JAKE AND OTTO THEIR DAMP CLOTHES NOW DRIED ON THEM STRETCHED THEIR STIFF ARMS AND PLUNGED AGAIN INTO THE DRIFTS. THEY MADE A TUNNEL UNDER THE SNOW TO THE HENHOUSE WITH WALLS SO SOLID THAT GRANDMOTHER AND I COULD WALK BACK AND FORTH IN IT. WE FOUND THE CHICKENS ASLEEP PERHAPS THEY THOUGHT NIGHT HAD COME TO STAY. ONE OLD ROOSTER WAS STIRRING ABOUT PECKING AT THE SOLID LUMP OF ICE IN THEIR WATER TIN. WHEN WE FLASHED THE LANTERN IN THEIR EYES THE HENS SET UP A GREAT CACKLING AND FLEW ABOUT CLUMSILY SCATTERING DOWN FEATHERS. BY FIVE O'CLOCK THE CHORES WERE DONE JUST WHEN IT WAS TIME TO BEGIN THEM ALL OVER AGAIN

+SHE WAS FOUR YEARS OLDER THAN I TO BE SURE AND HAD SEEN MORE OF THE WORLD BUT I WAS A BOY AND SHE WAS A GIRL AND I RESENTED HER PROTECTING MANNER. BEFORE THE AUTUMN WAS OVER SHE BEGAN TO TREAT ME MORE LIKE AN EQUAL AND TO DEFER TO ME IN OTHER THINGS THAN READING LESSONS. THIS CHANGE CAME ABOUT FROM AN ADVENTURE WE HAD TOGETHER. ONE DAY WHEN I RODE OVER TO THE SHIMERDAS I FOUND ANTONIA STARTING OFF ON FOOT FOR RUSSIAN PETER'S HOUSE TO BORROW A SPADE AMBROSCH NEEDED. I OFFERED TO TAKE HER ON THE PONY AND SHE GOT UP BEHIND ME. THERE HAD BEEN ANOTHER BLACK FROST THE NIGHT BEFORE AND THE AIR WAS CLEAR AND HEADY AS WINE. WITHIN A WEEK ALL THE BLOOMING ROADS HAD BEEN DESPOILED HUNDREDS OF MILES OF YELLOW SUNFLOWERS HAD BEEN TRANSFORMED INTO BROWN RATTLING BURRY STALKS. WE FOUND RUSSIAN PETER DIGGING HIS POTATOES. AS WE RODE AWAY WITH THE SPADE ANTONIA SUGGESTED THAT WE STOP AT THE PRAIRIE DOG TOWN AND DIG INTO ONE OF THE HOLES. WE COULD FIND OUT WHETHER THEY RAN STRAIGHT DOWN OR WERE HORIZONTAL LIKE MOLE HOLES WHETHER THEY HAD UNDERGROUND CONNECTIONS WHETHER THE OWLS HAD NESTS DOWN THERE LINED WITH FEATHERS. WE MIGHT GET SOME PUPPIES OR OWL EGGS OR SNAKE SKINS. THE DOG TOWN WAS SPREAD OUT OVER PERHAPS TEN ACRES. THE GRASS HAD BEEN NIBBLED SHORT AND EVEN SO THIS STRETCH WAS NOT SHAGGY AND RED LIKE THE SURROUNDING COUNTRY BUT GRAY AND VELVETY. THE HOLES WERE SEVERAL YARDS APART AND WERE DISPOSED WITH A GOOD DEAL OF REGULARITY ALMOST AS IF THE TOWN HAD BEEN LAID OUT IN STREETS AND AVENUES. ONE ALWAYS FELT THAT AN ORDERLY AND VERY SOCIABLE KIND OF LIFE WAS GOING ON THERE. I PICKETED DUDE DOWN IN A DRAW AND WE WENT WANDERING ABOUT LOOKING FOR A HOLE THAT WOULD BE EASY TO DIG. THE DOGS WERE OUT AS USUAL DOZENS OF THEM SITTING UP ON THEIR HIND LEGS OVER THE DOORS OF THEIR HOUSES. AS WE APPROACHED THEY BARKED SHOOK THEIR TAILS AT US AND SCURRIED UNDERGROUND. BEFORE THE MOUTHS OF THE HOLES WERE LITTLE PATCHES OF SAND AND GRAVEL SCRATCHED UP WE SUPPOSED FROM A LONG WAY BELOW THE SURFACE. HERE AND THERE IN THE TOWN WE CAME ON LARGER GRAVEL PATCHES SEVERAL YARDS AWAY FROM ANY HOLE. IF THE DOGS HAD SCRATCHED THE SAND UP IN EXCAVATING HOW HAD THEY CARRIED IT SO FAR. IT WAS ON ONE OF THESE GRAVEL BEDS THAT I MET MY ADVENTURE. WE WERE EXAMINING A BIG HOLE WITH TWO ENTRANCES. THE BURROW SLOPED INTO THE GROUND AT A GENTLE ANGLE SO THAT WE COULD SEE WHERE THE TWO CORRIDORS UNITED AND THE FLOOR WAS DUSTY FROM USE LIKE A LITTLE HIGHWAY OVER WHICH MUCH TRAVEL WENT. I WAS WALKING BACKWARD IN A CROUCHING POSITION WHEN I HEARD ANTONIA SCREAM. SHE WAS STANDING OPPOSITE ME POINTING BEHIND ME AND SHOUTING SOMETHING IN BOHEMIAN. I WHIRLED ROUND AND THERE ON ONE OF THOSE DRY GRAVEL BEDS WAS THE BIGGEST SNAKE I HAD EVER SEEN. HE WAS SUNNING HIMSELF AFTER THE COLD NIGHT AND HE MUST HAVE BEEN ASLEEP WHEN ANTONIA SCREAMED. WHEN I TURNED HE WAS LYING IN LONG LOOSE WAVES LIKE A LETTER W HE TWITCHED AND BEGAN TO COIL SLOWLY. HE WAS NOT MERELY A BIG SNAKE I THOUGHT HE WAS A CIRCUS MONSTROSITY. HIS ABOMINABLE MUSCULARITY HIS LOATHSOME FLUID MOTION SOMEHOW MADE ME SICK. I SAW HIS COILS TIGHTEN NOW HE WOULD SPRING SPRING HIS LENGTH I REMEMBERED. I RAN UP AND DROVE AT HIS HEAD WITH MY SPADE STRUCK HIM FAIRLY ACROSS THE NECK AND IN A MINUTE HE WAS ALL ABOUT MY FEET IN WAVY LOOPS. I STRUCK NOW FROM HATE. ANTONIA BAREFOOTED AS SHE WAS RAN UP BEHIND ME. EVEN AFTER I HAD POUNDED HIS UGLY HEAD FLAT HIS BODY KEPT ON COILING AND WINDING DOUBLING AND FALLING BACK ON ITSELF. I WALKED AWAY AND TURNED MY BACK I FELT SEASICK. I KNOW I AM JUST AWFUL JIM I WAS SO SCARED

+IF THE READER WILL EXCUSE ME I WILL SAY NOTHING OF MY ANTECEDENTS NOR OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH LED ME TO LEAVE MY NATIVE COUNTRY THE NARRATIVE WOULD BE TEDIOUS TO HIM AND PAINFUL TO MYSELF. SUFFICE IT THAT WHEN I LEFT HOME IT WAS WITH THE INTENTION OF GOING TO SOME NEW COLONY AND EITHER FINDING OR EVEN PERHAPS PURCHASING WASTE CROWN LAND SUITABLE FOR CATTLE OR SHEEP FARMING BY WHICH MEANS I THOUGHT THAT I COULD BETTER MY FORTUNES MORE RAPIDLY THAN IN ENGLAND. IT WILL BE SEEN THAT I DID NOT SUCCEED IN MY DESIGN AND THAT HOWEVER MUCH I MAY HAVE MET WITH THAT WAS NEW AND STRANGE I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO REAP ANY PECUNIARY ADVANTAGE. BUT TO THIS END I MUST POSSESS MYSELF OF A CONSIDERABLE SUM OF MONEY NEITHER DO I KNOW HOW TO GET IT EXCEPT BY INTERESTING THE PUBLIC IN MY STORY AND INDUCING THE CHARITABLE TO COME FORWARD AND ASSIST ME. WITH THIS HOPE I NOW PUBLISH MY ADVENTURES BUT I DO SO WITH GREAT RELUCTANCE FOR I FEAR THAT MY STORY WILL BE DOUBTED UNLESS I TELL THE WHOLE OF IT AND YET I DARE NOT DO SO LEST OTHERS WITH MORE MEANS THAN MINE SHOULD GET THE START OF ME. I PREFER THE RISK OF BEING DOUBTED TO THAT OF BEING ANTICIPATED AND HAVE THEREFORE CONCEALED MY DESTINATION ON LEAVING ENGLAND AS ALSO THE POINT FROM WHICH I BEGAN MY MORE SERIOUS AND DIFFICULT JOURNEY. MY CHIEF CONSOLATION LIES IN THE FACT THAT TRUTH BEARS ITS OWN IMPRESS AND THAT MY STORY WILL CARRY CONVICTION BY REASON OF THE INTERNAL EVIDENCES FOR ITS ACCURACY. NO ONE WHO IS HIMSELF HONEST WILL DOUBT MY BEING SO. I REACHED MY DESTINATION IN ONE OF THE LAST MONTHS OF EIGHTEEN SIXTY EIGHT BUT I DARE NOT MENTION THE SEASON LEST THE READER SHOULD GATHER IN WHICH HEMISPHERE I WAS. THE COLONY WAS ONE WHICH HAD NOT BEEN OPENED UP EVEN TO THE MOST ADVENTUROUS SETTLERS FOR MORE THAN EIGHT OR NINE YEARS HAVING BEEN PREVIOUSLY UNINHABITED SAVE BY A FEW TRIBES OF SAVAGES WHO FREQUENTED THE SEABOARD. THE COAST WAS PERFECTLY WELL KNOWN BOTH NORTH AND SOUTH OF THE TRACT TO WHICH I HAVE ALLUDED BUT IN NEITHER DIRECTION WAS THERE A SINGLE HARBOUR FOR FIVE HUNDRED MILES AND THE MOUNTAINS WHICH DESCENDED ALMOST INTO THE SEA WERE COVERED WITH THICK TIMBER SO THAT NONE WOULD THINK OF SETTLING. THE CLIMATE WAS TEMPERATE AND VERY HEALTHY THERE WERE NO WILD ANIMALS NOR WERE THE NATIVES DANGEROUS BEING FEW IN NUMBER AND OF AN INTELLIGENT TRACTABLE DISPOSITION. SHEEP AND CATTLE WERE INTRODUCED AND BRED WITH EXTREME RAPIDITY MEN TOOK UP THEIR FIFTY THOUSAND OR ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND ACRES OF COUNTRY GOING INLAND ONE BEHIND THE OTHER TILL IN A FEW YEARS THERE WAS NOT AN ACRE BETWEEN THE SEA AND THE FRONT RANGES WHICH WAS NOT TAKEN UP AND STATIONS EITHER FOR SHEEP OR CATTLE WERE SPOTTED ABOUT AT INTERVALS OF SOME TWENTY OR THIRTY MILES OVER THE WHOLE COUNTRY. MEN PUSHED FARTHER AND FARTHER INTO THE MOUNTAINS AND FOUND A VERY CONSIDERABLE TRACT INSIDE THE FRONT RANGE BETWEEN IT AND ANOTHER WHICH WAS LOFTIER STILL THOUGH EVEN THIS WAS NOT THE HIGHEST THE GREAT SNOWY ONE WHICH COULD BE SEEN FROM OUT UPON THE PLAINS. THIS SECOND RANGE HOWEVER SEEMED TO MARK THE EXTREME LIMITS OF PASTORAL COUNTRY AND IT WAS HERE AT A SMALL AND NEWLY FOUNDED STATION THAT I WAS RECEIVED AS A CADET AND SOON REGULARLY EMPLOYED. I WAS THEN JUST TWENTY TWO YEARS OLD. I WAS DELIGHTED WITH THE COUNTRY AND THE MANNER OF LIFE. IT WAS MY DAILY BUSINESS TO GO UP TO THE TOP OF A CERTAIN HIGH MOUNTAIN AND DOWN ONE OF ITS SPURS ON TO THE FLAT IN ORDER TO MAKE SURE THAT NO SHEEP HAD CROSSED THEIR BOUNDARIES. I WAS TO SEE THE SHEEP NOT NECESSARILY CLOSE AT HAND NOR TO GET THEM IN A SINGLE MOB BUT TO SEE ENOUGH OF THEM HERE AND THERE TO FEEL EASY THAT NOTHING HAD GONE WRONG THIS WAS NO DIFFICULT MATTER FOR THERE WERE NOT ABOVE EIGHT HUNDRED OF THEM AND BEING ALL BREEDING EWES THEY WERE PRETTY QUIET. THERE WERE A GOOD MANY SHEEP WHICH I KNEW AS TWO OR THREE BLACK EWES AND A BLACK LAMB OR TWO AND SEVERAL OTHERS WHICH HAD SOME DISTINGUISHING MARK WHEREBY I COULD TELL THEM. IT IS SURPRISING HOW SOON THE EYE BECOMES ACCUSTOMED TO MISSING TWENTY SHEEP OUT OF TWO OR THREE HUNDRED. I HAD A TELESCOPE AND A DOG AND WOULD TAKE BREAD AND MEAT AND TOBACCO WITH ME

+STARTING WITH EARLY DAWN IT WOULD BE NIGHT BEFORE I COULD COMPLETE MY ROUND FOR THE MOUNTAIN OVER WHICH I HAD TO GO WAS VERY HIGH. IN WINTER IT WAS COVERED WITH SNOW AND THE SHEEP NEEDED NO WATCHING FROM ABOVE. IT WAS A MONOTONOUS LIFE BUT IT WAS VERY HEALTHY AND ONE DOES NOT MUCH MIND ANYTHING WHEN ONE IS WELL. THE COUNTRY WAS THE GRANDEST THAT CAN BE IMAGINED. BEYOND THE DOWNS WAS A PLAIN GOING DOWN TO A RIVER OF GREAT SIZE ON THE FARTHER SIDE OF WHICH THERE WERE OTHER HIGH MOUNTAINS WITH THE WINTER'S SNOW STILL NOT QUITE MELTED UP THE RIVER WHICH RAN WINDING IN MANY STREAMS OVER A BED SOME TWO MILES BROAD I LOOKED UPON THE SECOND GREAT CHAIN AND COULD SEE A NARROW GORGE WHERE THE RIVER RETIRED AND WAS LOST. SO LONELY AND SO SOLEMN WITH THE SAD GREY CLOUDS ABOVE AND NO SOUND SAVE A LOST LAMB BLEATING UPON THE MOUNTAIN SIDE AS THOUGH ITS LITTLE HEART WERE BREAKING. THEN THERE COMES SOME LEAN AND WITHERED OLD EWE WITH DEEP GRUFF VOICE AND UNLOVELY ASPECT TROTTING BACK FROM THE SEDUCTIVE PASTURE NOW SHE EXAMINES THIS GULLY AND NOW THAT AND NOW SHE STANDS LISTENING WITH UPLIFTED HEAD THAT SHE MAY HEAR THE DISTANT WAILING AND OBEY IT. AHA THEY SEE AND RUSH TOWARDS EACH OTHER. ALAS THEY ARE BOTH MISTAKEN THE EWE IS NOT THE LAMB'S EWE THEY ARE NEITHER KIN NOR KIND TO ONE ANOTHER AND PART IN COLDNESS. EACH MUST CRY LOUDER AND WANDER FARTHER YET MAY LUCK BE WITH THEM BOTH THAT THEY MAY FIND THEIR OWN AT NIGHTFALL. BUT THIS IS MERE DREAMING AND I MUST PROCEED. I COULD NOT HELP SPECULATING UPON WHAT MIGHT LIE FARTHER UP THE RIVER AND BEHIND THE SECOND RANGE. I HAD NO MONEY BUT IF I COULD ONLY FIND WORKABLE COUNTRY I MIGHT STOCK IT WITH BORROWED CAPITAL AND CONSIDER MYSELF A MADE MAN. TRUE THE RANGE LOOKED SO VAST THAT THERE SEEMED LITTLE CHANCE OF GETTING A SUFFICIENT ROAD THROUGH IT OR OVER IT BUT NO ONE HAD YET EXPLORED IT AND IT IS WONDERFUL HOW ONE FINDS THAT ONE CAN MAKE A PATH INTO ALL SORTS OF PLACES AND EVEN GET A ROAD FOR PACK HORSES WHICH FROM A DISTANCE APPEAR INACCESSIBLE THE RIVER WAS SO GREAT THAT IT MUST DRAIN AN INNER TRACT AT LEAST I THOUGHT SO AND THOUGH EVERY ONE SAID IT WOULD BE MADNESS TO ATTEMPT TAKING SHEEP FARTHER INLAND I KNEW THAT ONLY THREE YEARS AGO THE SAME CRY HAD BEEN RAISED AGAINST THE COUNTRY WHICH MY MASTER'S FLOCK WAS NOW OVERRUNNING. BUT OVER AND ABOVE THESE THOUGHTS CAME THAT OF THE GREAT RANGE ITSELF. WHAT WAS BEYOND IT AH WHO COULD SAY. THERE WAS NO ONE IN THE WHOLE WORLD WHO HAD THE SMALLEST IDEA SAVE THOSE WHO WERE THEMSELVES ON THE OTHER SIDE OF IT IF INDEED THERE WAS ANY ONE AT ALL COULD I HOPE TO CROSS IT. THIS WOULD BE THE HIGHEST TRIUMPH THAT I COULD WISH FOR BUT IT WAS TOO MUCH TO THINK OF YET. I WOULD TRY THE NEARER RANGE AND SEE HOW FAR I COULD GO. EVEN IF I DID NOT FIND COUNTRY MIGHT I NOT FIND GOLD OR DIAMONDS OR COPPER OR SILVER. I WOULD SOMETIMES LIE FLAT DOWN TO DRINK OUT OF A STREAM AND COULD SEE LITTLE YELLOW SPECKS AMONG THE SAND WERE THESE GOLD. PEOPLE SAID NO BUT THEN PEOPLE ALWAYS SAID THERE WAS NO GOLD UNTIL IT WAS FOUND TO BE ABUNDANT THERE WAS PLENTY OF SLATE AND GRANITE WHICH I HAD ALWAYS UNDERSTOOD TO ACCOMPANY GOLD AND EVEN THOUGH IT WAS NOT FOUND IN PAYING QUANTITIES HERE IT MIGHT BE ABUNDANT IN THE MAIN RANGES

+WE FOLLOWED AN ALPINE PATH FOR SOME FOUR MILES NOW HUNDREDS OF FEET ABOVE A BRAWLING STREAM WHICH DESCENDED FROM THE GLACIERS AND NOW NEARLY ALONGSIDE IT. THE MORNING WAS COLD AND SOMEWHAT FOGGY FOR THE AUTUMN HAD MADE GREAT STRIDES LATTERLY. HOWEVER I SHOWED NO SIGN OF WONDER OR DISAPPROVAL FOR I REMEMBERED THAT TO BE ALL THINGS TO ALL MEN WAS ONE OF THE INJUNCTIONS OF THE GENTILE APOSTLE WHICH FOR THE PRESENT I SHOULD DO WELL TO HEED. SHORTLY AFTER PASSING ONE OF THESE CHAPELS WE CAME SUDDENLY UPON A VILLAGE WHICH STARTED UP OUT OF THE MIST AND I WAS ALARMED LEST I SHOULD BE MADE AN OBJECT OF CURIOSITY OR DISLIKE. BUT IT WAS NOT SO. MY GUIDES SPOKE TO MANY IN PASSING AND THOSE SPOKEN TO SHOWED MUCH AMAZEMENT. MY GUIDES HOWEVER WERE WELL KNOWN AND THE NATURAL POLITENESS OF THE PEOPLE PREVENTED THEM FROM PUTTING ME TO ANY INCONVENIENCE BUT THEY COULD NOT HELP EYEING ME NOR I THEM. I MAY AS WELL SAY AT ONCE WHAT MY AFTER EXPERIENCE TAUGHT ME NAMELY THAT WITH ALL THEIR FAULTS AND EXTRAORDINARY OBLIQUITY OF MENTAL VISION UPON MANY SUBJECTS THEY ARE THE VERY BEST BRED PEOPLE THAT I EVER FELL IN WITH. THE STREETS WERE NARROW AND UNPAVED BUT VERY FAIRLY CLEAN. THE VINE GREW OUTSIDE MANY OF THE HOUSES AND THERE WERE SOME WITH SIGN BOARDS ON WHICH WAS PAINTED A BOTTLE AND A GLASS THAT MADE ME FEEL MUCH AT HOME. EVEN ON THIS LEDGE OF HUMAN SOCIETY THERE WAS A STUNTED GROWTH OF SHOPLETS WHICH HAD TAKEN ROOT AND VEGETATED SOMEHOW THOUGH AS IN AN AIR MERCANTILE OF THE BLEAKEST. IT WAS HERE AS HITHERTO ALL THINGS WERE GENERICALLY THE SAME AS IN EUROPE THE DIFFERENCES BEING OF SPECIES ONLY AND I WAS AMUSED AT SEEING IN A WINDOW SOME BOTTLES WITH BARLEY SUGAR AND SWEETMEATS FOR CHILDREN AS AT HOME BUT THE BARLEY SUGAR WAS IN PLATES NOT IN TWISTED STICKS AND WAS COLOURED BLUE. GLASS WAS PLENTIFUL IN THE BETTER HOUSES. LASTLY I SHOULD SAY THAT THE PEOPLE WERE OF A PHYSICAL BEAUTY WHICH WAS SIMPLY AMAZING. I NEVER SAW ANYTHING IN THE LEAST COMPARABLE TO THEM. THE WOMEN WERE VIGOROUS AND HAD A MOST MAJESTIC GAIT THEIR HEADS BEING SET UPON THEIR SHOULDERS WITH A GRACE BEYOND ALL POWER OF EXPRESSION. EACH FEATURE WAS FINISHED EYELIDS EYELASHES AND EARS BEING ALMOST INVARIABLY PERFECT. THEIR EXPRESSION WAS DIVINE AND AS THEY GLANCED AT ME TIMIDLY BUT WITH PARTED LIPS IN GREAT BEWILDERMENT I FORGOT ALL THOUGHTS OF THEIR CONVERSION IN FEELINGS THAT WERE FAR MORE EARTHLY. I WAS DAZZLED AS I SAW ONE AFTER THE OTHER OF WHOM I COULD ONLY FEEL THAT EACH WAS THE LOVELIEST I HAD EVER SEEN. EVEN IN MIDDLE AGE THEY WERE STILL COMELY AND THE OLD GREY HAIRED WOMEN AT THEIR COTTAGE DOORS HAD A DIGNITY NOT TO SAY MAJESTY OF THEIR OWN. THE MEN WERE AS HANDSOME AS THE WOMEN BEAUTIFUL. I HAVE ALWAYS DELIGHTED IN AND REVERENCED BEAUTY BUT I FELT SIMPLY ABASHED IN THE PRESENCE OF SUCH A SPLENDID TYPE A COMPOUND OF ALL THAT IS BEST IN EGYPTIAN GREEK AND ITALIAN. THE CHILDREN WERE INFINITE IN NUMBER AND EXCEEDINGLY MERRY I NEED HARDLY SAY THAT THEY CAME IN FOR THEIR FULL SHARE OF THE PREVAILING BEAUTY. I EXPRESSED BY SIGNS MY ADMIRATION AND PLEASURE TO MY GUIDES AND THEY WERE GREATLY PLEASED. I SHOULD ADD THAT ALL SEEMED TO TAKE A PRIDE IN THEIR PERSONAL APPEARANCE AND THAT EVEN THE POOREST AND NONE SEEMED RICH WERE WELL KEMPT AND TIDY. I COULD FILL MANY PAGES WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THEIR DRESS AND THE ORNAMENTS WHICH THEY WORE AND A HUNDRED DETAILS WHICH STRUCK ME WITH ALL THE FORCE OF NOVELTY BUT I MUST NOT STAY TO DO SO. WHEN WE HAD GOT PAST THE VILLAGE THE FOG ROSE AND REVEALED MAGNIFICENT VIEWS OF THE SNOWY MOUNTAINS AND THEIR NEARER ABUTMENTS WHILE IN FRONT I COULD NOW AND AGAIN CATCH GLIMPSES OF THE GREAT PLAINS WHICH I HAD SURVEYED ON THE PRECEDING EVENING. THE COUNTRY WAS HIGHLY CULTIVATED EVERY LEDGE BEING PLANTED WITH CHESTNUTS WALNUTS AND APPLE TREES FROM WHICH THE APPLES WERE NOW GATHERING. I SAW A FEW SHEEP WITH ROUNDED NOSES AND ENORMOUS TAILS. DOGS WERE THERE IN PLENTY AND VERY ENGLISH BUT I SAW NO CATS NOR INDEED ARE THESE CREATURES KNOWN THEIR PLACE BEING SUPPLIED BY A SORT OF SMALL TERRIER

+IN ABOUT FOUR HOURS OF WALKING FROM THE TIME WE STARTED AND AFTER PASSING TWO OR THREE MORE VILLAGES WE CAME UPON A CONSIDERABLE TOWN AND MY GUIDES MADE MANY ATTEMPTS TO MAKE ME UNDERSTAND SOMETHING BUT I GATHERED NO INKLING OF THEIR MEANING EXCEPT THAT I NEED BE UNDER NO APPREHENSION OF DANGER. SUFFICE IT THAT I FOUND MYSELF TAKEN BEFORE THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE AND BY HIS ORDERS WAS PLACED IN AN APARTMENT WITH TWO OTHER PEOPLE WHO WERE THE FIRST I HAD SEEN LOOKING ANYTHING BUT WELL AND HANDSOME. IN FACT ONE OF THEM WAS PLAINLY VERY MUCH OUT OF HEALTH AND COUGHED VIOLENTLY FROM TIME TO TIME IN SPITE OF MANIFEST EFFORTS TO SUPPRESS IT. THE OTHER LOOKED PALE AND ILL BUT HE WAS MARVELLOUSLY SELF CONTAINED AND IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY WHAT WAS THE MATTER WITH HIM. BOTH OF THEM APPEARED ASTONISHED AT SEEING ONE WHO WAS EVIDENTLY A STRANGER BUT THEY WERE TOO ILL TO COME UP TO ME AND FORM CONCLUSIONS CONCERNING ME. THESE TWO WERE FIRST CALLED OUT AND IN ABOUT A QUARTER OF AN HOUR I WAS MADE TO FOLLOW THEM WHICH I DID IN SOME FEAR AND WITH MUCH CURIOSITY. THE CHIEF MAGISTRATE WAS A VENERABLE LOOKING MAN WITH WHITE HAIR AND BEARD AND A FACE OF GREAT SAGACITY. HE LOOKED ME ALL OVER FOR ABOUT FIVE MINUTES LETTING HIS EYES WANDER FROM THE CROWN OF MY HEAD TO THE SOLES OF MY FEET UP AND DOWN AND DOWN AND UP NEITHER DID HIS MIND SEEM IN THE LEAST CLEARER WHEN HE HAD DONE LOOKING THAN WHEN HE BEGAN. HE AT LENGTH ASKED ME A SINGLE SHORT QUESTION WHICH I SUPPOSED MEANT WHO ARE YOU. THEY FELT MY PULSE THEY LOOKED AT MY TONGUE THEY LISTENED AT MY CHEST THEY FELT ALL MY MUSCLES AND AT THE END OF EACH OPERATION THEY LOOKED AT THE CHIEF AND NODDED AND SAID SOMETHING IN A TONE QUITE PLEASANT AS THOUGH I WERE ALL RIGHT. AS SOON AS IT WAS ENDED THEY PROCEEDED TO OVERHAUL MY SWAG AND THE CONTENTS OF MY POCKETS. THIS GAVE ME LITTLE UNEASINESS FOR I HAD NO MONEY WITH ME NOR ANYTHING WHICH THEY WERE AT ALL LIKELY TO WANT OR WHICH I CARED ABOUT LOSING. AT LEAST I FANCIED SO BUT I SOON FOUND MY MISTAKE. THEY GOT ON COMFORTABLY AT FIRST THOUGH THEY WERE MUCH PUZZLED WITH MY TOBACCO PIPE AND INSISTED ON SEEING ME USE IT. WHEN I HAD SHOWN THEM WHAT I DID WITH IT THEY WERE ASTONISHED BUT NOT DISPLEASED AND SEEMED TO LIKE THE SMELL. BUT BY AND BY THEY CAME TO MY WATCH WHICH I HAD HIDDEN AWAY IN THE INMOST POCKET THAT I HAD AND HAD FORGOTTEN WHEN THEY BEGAN THEIR SEARCH. THEY SEEMED CONCERNED AND UNEASY AS SOON AS THEY GOT HOLD OF IT. I REMEMBER THAT WHEN THEY FIRST FOUND IT I HAD THOUGHT OF PALEY AND HOW HE TELLS US THAT A SAVAGE ON SEEING A WATCH WOULD AT ONCE CONCLUDE THAT IT WAS DESIGNED. HE SPOKE TO ME SOLEMNLY AND STERNLY FOR TWO OR THREE MINUTES. THEN REFLECTING THAT THIS WAS OF NO USE HE CAUSED ME TO BE CONDUCTED THROUGH SEVERAL PASSAGES INTO A LARGE ROOM WHICH I AFTERWARDS FOUND WAS THE MUSEUM OF THE TOWN AND WHEREIN I BEHELD A SIGHT WHICH ASTONISHED ME MORE THAN ANYTHING THAT I HAD YET SEEN. IT WAS FILLED WITH CASES CONTAINING ALL MANNER OF CURIOSITIES SUCH AS SKELETONS STUFFED BIRDS AND ANIMALS CARVINGS IN STONE WHEREOF I SAW SEVERAL THAT WERE LIKE THOSE ON THE SADDLE ONLY SMALLER BUT THE GREATER PART OF THE ROOM WAS OCCUPIED BY BROKEN MACHINERY OF ALL DESCRIPTIONS. THE LARGER SPECIMENS HAD A CASE TO THEMSELVES AND TICKETS WITH WRITING ON THEM IN A CHARACTER WHICH I COULD NOT UNDERSTAND. THERE WERE FRAGMENTS OF STEAM ENGINES ALL BROKEN AND RUSTED AMONG THEM I SAW A CYLINDER AND PISTON A BROKEN FLY WHEEL AND PART OF A CRANK WHICH WAS LAID ON THE GROUND BY THEIR SIDE. AGAIN THERE WAS A VERY OLD CARRIAGE WHOSE WHEELS IN SPITE OF RUST AND DECAY I COULD SEE HAD BEEN DESIGNED ORIGINALLY FOR IRON RAILS. INDEED THERE WERE FRAGMENTS OF A GREAT MANY OF OUR OWN MOST ADVANCED INVENTIONS BUT THEY SEEMED ALL TO BE SEVERAL HUNDRED YEARS OLD AND TO BE PLACED WHERE THEY WERE NOT FOR INSTRUCTION BUT CURIOSITY. AS I SAID BEFORE ALL WERE MARRED AND BROKEN. WE PASSED MANY CASES AND AT LAST CAME TO ONE IN WHICH THERE WERE SEVERAL CLOCKS AND TWO OR THREE OLD WATCHES. HERE THE MAGISTRATE STOPPED AND OPENING THE CASE BEGAN COMPARING MY WATCH WITH THE OTHERS. THE DESIGN WAS DIFFERENT BUT THE THING WAS CLEARLY THE SAME. THIS HAD SOME EFFECT IN CALMING HIM

+HE BEGAN PRESENTLY TO RELENT AND SPOKE TO ME IN A KINDER MANNER. I AFTERWARDS FOUND THAT IT WAS RECKONED A VERY GREAT MERIT TO HAVE FAIR HAIR THIS BEING A THING OF THE RAREST POSSIBLE OCCURRENCE AND GREATLY ADMIRED AND ENVIED IN ALL WHO WERE POSSESSED OF IT. HOWEVER THAT MIGHT BE MY WATCH WAS TAKEN FROM ME BUT OUR PEACE WAS MADE AND I WAS CONDUCTED BACK TO THE ROOM WHERE I HAD BEEN EXAMINED. THE MAGISTRATE THEN MADE ME ANOTHER SPEECH WHEREON I WAS TAKEN TO A BUILDING HARD BY WHICH I SOON DISCOVERED TO BE THE COMMON PRISON OF THE TOWN BUT IN WHICH AN APARTMENT WAS ASSIGNED ME SEPARATE FROM THE OTHER PRISONERS. THERE WAS ANOTHER DOOR WHICH OPENED ON TO A BALCONY WITH A FLIGHT OF STEPS DESCENDING INTO A WALLED GARDEN OF SOME SIZE

+THAT WAS THE ADVERTISEMENT IT HAD ITS POINTS. I WAS NOT SURE WHAT IN THIS CASE AN OLD FASHIONED CHRISTMAS MIGHT HAPPEN TO MEAN. I IMAGINE THERE WERE SEVERAL KINDS OF OLD FASHIONED CHRISTMASES BUT IT COULD HARDLY BE WORSE THAN A CHOP IN MY CHAMBERS OR HORROR OF HORRORS AT THE CLUB OR MY COUSIN LUCY'S NOTION OF WHAT SHE CALLS THE FESTIVE SEASON. FESTIVE YES. SO I WROTE TO THE ADVERTISER. THE REPLY WAS WRITTEN IN A SPRAWLING FEMININE HAND IT WAS A LITTLE VAGUE. IT APPEARED THAT THE TERMS WOULD BE FIVE GUINEAS BUT THERE WAS NO MENTION OF THE LENGTH OF TIME WHICH THAT FEE WOULD COVER. I MIGHT ARRIVE IT SEEMED ON CHRISTMAS EVE BUT THERE WAS NO HINT AS TO WHEN I WAS TO GO IF EVER. THE WHOLE THING WAS A TRIFLE ODD. THERE WAS NOTHING SAID ABOUT THE SORT OF ACCOMMODATION WHICH WOULD BE PROVIDED NOTHING ABOUT THE KIND OF ESTABLISHMENT WHICH WAS MAINTAINED OR THE TABLE WHICH WAS KEPT. THE LETTER WAS SIGNED MADGE WILSON. NOW IT IS A REMARKABLE THING THAT I HAVE ALWAYS HAD AN EXTRAORDINARY PREDILECTION FOR THE NAME MADGE I DO NOT KNOW WHY. I HAVE NEVER KNOWN A MADGE AND YET FROM MY BOYHOOD UPWARD I HAVE DESIRED TO MEET ONE. HERE WAS AN OPPORTUNITY OFFERED. SHE WAS APPARENTLY THE CAREWORN MOTHER OF A LIVELY FAMILY. UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES SHE WAS HARDLY LIKELY TO BE LIVELY HERSELF BUT HER NAME WAS MADGE AND IT WAS THE ACCIDENT OF HER CHRISTIAN NAME WHICH DECIDED ME TO GO. I HAD NO ILLUSIONS. I DID NOT EXPECT A PRINCELY ENTERTAINMENT. STILL I FELT THAT IT COULD HARDLY BE WORSE THAN A CHOP OR COUSIN LUCY THE SUBJECTS OF HER CONVERSATION I NEVER CARED ABOUT WHEN THEY WERE ALIVE AND I CERTAINLY DO NOT WANT TO TALK ABOUT THEM NOW THEY ARE DEAD. AS FOR THE PILLS AND DROPS WITH WHICH HER HUSBAND DOSES HIMSELF BETWEEN THE COURSES IT MAKES ME ILL EVEN TO THINK OF THEM. ON CHRISTMAS EVE THE WEATHER WAS ABOMINABLE. ALL NIGHT IT HAD BEEN BLOWING AND RAINING. IN THE MORNING IT BEGAN TO FREEZE. BY THE TIME THE STREETS WERE LIKE SO MANY SKATING RINKS IT COMMENCED TO SNOW. AND IT KEPT ON SNOWING THAT TURNED OUT TO BE QUITE A RECORD IN THE WAY OF SNOW STORMS. HARDLY THE SORT OF WEATHER TO START FOR AN UNKNOWN DESTINATION IN THE HEART OF THE COUNTRY BUT AT THE LAST MOMENT I DID NOT LIKE TO BACK OUT I SAID I WOULD GO AND I MEANT TO GO. I HAD BEEN IDIOT ENOUGH TO LOAD MYSELF WITH A LOT OF CHRISTMAS PRESENTS WITHOUT THE FAINTEST NOTION WHY. I HAD NOT GIVEN A CHRISTMAS PRESENT FOR YEARS THERE HAD BEEN NO ONE TO GIVE THEM TO. LUCY CANNOT BEAR SUCH TRIFLING AND HER HUSBAND'S ONLY NOTION OF A PRESENT AT ANY TIME WAS A GALLON JAR OF SOMEBODY'S STOMACH STIRRER. I AM NO DEALER IN POISONS. I KNEW NOTHING OF THE PEOPLE I WAS GOING TO. THE YOUNGEST MEMBER OF THE FAMILY MIGHT BE TWENTY OR THE OLDEST TEN. STILL IF YOU HAVE NOT TRIED YOUR HAND AT THAT KIND OF THING FOR EVER SO LONG THE MERE ACT OF PURCHASING IS A PLEASURE THAT IS A FACT. I HAD NEVER ENJOYED SHOPPING SO MUCH SINCE I WAS A BOY. I FELT QUITE LIVELY MYSELF AS I MINGLED WITH THE CHRISTMAS CROWD LOOKING FOR THINGS WHICH MIGHT NOT TURN OUT TO BE ABSOLUTELY PREPOSTEROUS. I EVEN BOUGHT SOMETHING FOR MADGE I MEAN MISSUS WILSON. I HOPED TO GOODNESS THAT HE WOULD NOT PROVE TO BE A HYPOCHONDRIAC LIKE LUCY'S HUSBAND I WOULD NOT GIVE HIM PILLS. WHAT THE LIVELY FAMILY WOULD THINK OF A PERFECT STRANGER ARRIVING BURDENED WITH RUBBISH AS IF HE HAD KNOWN THEM ALL THEIR LIVES I DID NOT DARE TO THINK. NO DOUBT THEY WOULD SET HIM DOWN AS A LUNATIC RIGHT AWAY. IT WAS A HORRIBLE JOURNEY. THE TRAINS WERE LATE AND OF COURSE OVERCROWDED THERE WAS ENOUGH LUGGAGE IN OUR COMPARTMENT TO HAVE FILLED IT AND STILL THERE WAS ONE MORE PASSENGER THAN THERE OUGHT TO HAVE BEEN AN ILL CONDITIONED OLD FELLOW WHO WANTED MY HAT BOX PUT INTO THE VAN BECAUSE IT HAPPENED TO TUMBLE OFF THE RACK ON TO HIS HEAD. I POINTED OUT TO HIM THAT THE RACK WAS SPECIALLY CONSTRUCTED FOR LIGHT LUGGAGE THAT A HAT BOX WAS LIGHT LUGGAGE AND THAT IF THE TRAIN JOLTED HE OUGHT TO BLAME THE COMPANY NOT ME

+HE WAS IMPERVIOUS TO REASON. HIS WRANGLING AND JANGLING SO UPSET ME THAT I WENT PAST THE STATION AT WHICH I OUGHT TO HAVE CHANGED. THEN I HAD TO WAIT THREE QUARTERS OF AN HOUR FOR A TRAIN TO TAKE ME BACK AGAIN ONLY TO FIND THAT I HAD MISSED THE ONE I INTENDED TO CATCH. IT IS SOME SATISFACTION FOR ME TO BE ABLE TO REFLECT THAT I MADE IT WARM FOR THE OFFICIALS HOWEVER COLD I MIGHT HAVE BEEN MYSELF. WHEN THE TRAIN DID START SOME FORTY MINUTES AFTER SCHEDULED TIME IT JOLTED ALONG IN A LABORIOUS FASHION AT THE RATE OF ABOUT SIX MILES AN HOUR STOPPING AT EVERY ROADSIDE HOVEL. I COUNTED SEVEN IN A DISTANCE I AM CONVINCED OF LESS THAN TWENTY MILES. WHEN AT LAST I REACHED CROFTON MY JOURNEY'S END IT TURNED OUT THAT THE STATION STAFF CONSISTED OF A HALF WITTED INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS STATIONMASTER PORTER AND CLERK COMBINED AND A HULKING LAD WHO DID WHATEVER ELSE THERE WAS TO DO. NO ONE HAD COME TO MEET ME THE VILLAGE WAS ABOUT HALF A MILE AND HANGAR DENE THE HOUSE FOR WHICH MY STEPS WERE BENT ABOUT FOUR MILES BY THE ROAD HOW FAR IT WAS ACROSS PLOUGHED FIELDS MY INFORMANT DID NOT MENTION. THERE WAS A TRAP AT THE BOY AND BLUNDERBUSS BUT THAT REQUIRED FETCHING. FINALLY THE HULKING LAD WAS DISPATCHED. IT TOOK HIM SOME TIME CONSIDERING THE DISTANCE WAS ONLY ABOUT HALF A MILE. WHEN THE TRAP DID APPEAR IT LOOKED TO ME UNCOMMONLY LIKE AN OPEN SPRING CART. IN IT I WAS DEPOSITED WITH MY LUGGAGE. THE SNOW WAS STILL DESCENDING IN WHIRLING CLOUDS. NEVER SHALL I FORGET THE DRIVE IN THAT MISERABLE CART THROUGH THE STORM AND THOSE PITCH BLACK COUNTRY LANES. BE YOU GOING TO STOP WITH THEY WILSONS I AM AH. IT BE ABOUT TIME AS SOMEONE WERE TO STAY WITH THEM AS WERE A BIT CAPABLE LIKE. I DID NOT KNOW WHAT HE MEANT. I DID NOT ASK I WAS BEYOND IT. I WAS CHILLED TO THE BONE WET TIRED HUNGRY. I HAD LONG BEEN WISHING THAT AN OLD FASHIONED CHRISTMAS HAD BEEN COMPLETELY EXTINCT BEFORE I HAD THOUGHT OF ADVENTURING IN QUEST OF ONE. BETTER COUSIN LUCY'S NOTION OF THE FESTIVE SEASON. WE PASSED THROUGH A GATE WHICH I HAD TO GET DOWN TO OPEN ALONG SOME SORT OF AVENUE. SUDDENLY THE CART PULLED UP. HERE WE BE THAT MIGHT BE SO. IT WAS A PITY HE DID NOT ADD WHERE HERE WAS. THERE WAS A GREAT SHADOW WHICH POSSIBLY DID DUTY FOR A HOUSE BUT IF SO THERE WAS NOT A LIGHT IN ANY OF THE WINDOWS AND THERE WAS NOTHING VISIBLE IN THE SHAPE OF A DOOR. THERE BE THE DOOR IN FRONT OF YOU YOU GO UP THREE STEPS IF YOU CAN FIND EM. THERE'S A KNOCKER IF NONE OF EM HAVEN'T TWISTED IT OFF. IF THEY HAVE THERE'S A BELL ON YOUR RIGHT IF IT ISN'T BROKEN. THERE APPEARED TO BE NO KNOCKER THOUGH WHETHER IT HAD BEEN TWISTED OFF WAS MORE THAN I COULD SAY. I HEARD IT TINKLE IN THE DISTANCE. NO ANSWER THOUGH I ALLOWED A MORE THAN DECENT INTERVAL. BETTER RING AGAIN SUGGESTED THE DRIVER HARD. MAYBE THEY'RE UP TO SOME OF THEIR GAMES AND WANTS ROUSING. WAS THERE A CHUCKLE IN THE FELLOW'S VOICE. I RANG AGAIN AND AGAIN WITH ALL THE FORCE I COULD. THE BELL REVERBERATED THROUGH WHAT SEEMED LIKE AN EMPTY HOUSE. IS THERE NO ONE IN THE PLACE. THEY'RE THERE RIGHT ENOUGH WHERE'S ANOTHER THING. MAYBE ON THE ROOF OR IN THE CELLAR. I SOUNDED ANOTHER PEAL. PRESENTLY FEET WERE HEARD ADVANCING ALONG THE PASSAGE SEVERAL PAIRS IT SEEMED AND A LIGHT GLEAMED THROUGH THE WINDOW OVER THE DOOR. A VOICE INQUIRED WHO'S THERE. MISTER CHRISTOPHER FROM LONDON. THE INFORMATION WAS GREETED WITH WHAT SOUNDED UNCOMMONLY LIKE A CHORUS OF LAUGHTER. THERE WAS A RUSH OF RETREATING FEET AN EXPOSTULATING VOICE THEN DARKNESS AGAIN AND SILENCE. WHO LIVES HERE ARE THE PEOPLE MAD. WELL THEREABOUTS

+I SAID IT MEANT NOTHING NOTHING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. ONLY I FOUND IT DIFFICULT TO EXPLAIN AND WHEN I DID EXPLAIN SHE WOULD NOT UNDERSTAND. NOT THAT I HAVE A WORD TO SAY AGAINST MARY ANN EXCEPT THAT I NEVER KNEW A GIRL WITH QUITE SO MANY RELATIONS. TO BEGIN WITH SHE HAD SIX BROTHERS AND FIVE SISTERS AND SHE IS THE ELDEST OF THE BATCH AND THERE'S NOT ONE OF THE BROTHERS WHOM I FEEL DRAWN TO. HER FATHER IS A MOST REMARKABLE PERSON TO SAY THE LEAST. AFTER THEY HAD ARRANGED BETWEEN THEM THAT I WAS ENGAGED TO MARY ANN I WAS REALLY NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE A VOICE IN THE MATTER HER FATHER REMARKED WITH A POINTED AIR WHICH I CANNOT BUT THINK UNDER THE CIRCUMSTANCES WAS UNUSUAL THAT HE THOUGHT IT WAS ABOUT TIME THAT I DID COME TO THE SCRATCH AND THAT IF I HAD KEPT ON DILLY DALLYING MUCH LONGER HE WOULD HAVE HAD A WORD TO SAY TO ME OF A KIND. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT HE MEANT AND WOULD RATHER NOT ATTEMPT TO IMAGINE. BUT IT IS QUITE PLAIN TO ME THAT ALL THE ARRANGEMENTS FOR MY WEDDING ARE GOING TO BE MADE BY THE SNELLINGS. I DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT IS GOING TO BE BUT IT WILL BE EITHER NEXT WEEK OR THE WEEK AFTER CERTAINLY AT THE EARLIEST POSSIBLE MOMENT AND I SHOULDN'T BE AT ALL SURPRISED TO LEARN THAT ALL MARY ANN'S THINGS HAD BEEN ALREADY BOUGHT AND PERHAPS SOME OF THEM MARKED. WE ARE TO LIVE IN A HOUSE WHICH BELONGS TO A COUSIN OF MISTER SNELLING IT IS TO BE FURNISHED BY A BROTHER OF MISSUS SNELLING THE HOUSE LINEN IS TO BE SUPPLIED BY THE FATHER OF THE YOUNG MAN TO WHOM JANE MATILDA IS ENGAGED AND THE IRONMONGERY BY THE UNCLE TO WHOM GEORGE FREDERIC IS APPRENTICED. ALL APPARENTLY THAT IS LEFT FOR ME TO DO IS TO PAY FOR EVERYTHING. IT IS MOST DELIGHTFUL. IT MIGHT JUST AS WELL BE SOME ONE ELSE'S WEDDING SO UNIMPORTANT IS THE PART WHICH I AM SET TO PLAY IN IT. THE MERE SUGGESTION IS ABSURD. THE ALTERATION WHICH HAS TAKEN PLACE IN THEIR DEMEANOUR SINCE MY ACCIDENT WITH MARY ANN IS THEREFORE ALL THE MORE AMAZING. FOR INSTANCE LOOK AT THEIR BEHAVIOUR IN THE MATTER OF THE RING. THE ACCIDENT IN QUESTION OCCURRED UPON THE SUNDAY EVENING. I HAD BEEN WITH MARY ANN TO CHURCH AND HAD SEEN HER HOME AND HAD HAD A LITTLE SUPPER AND IT WAS AFTER SUPPER THAT IT HAPPENED. I DID NOT GO AND PURCHASE THE ENGAGEMENT RING THE FIRST THING ON THE MONDAY MORNING I OWN IT CERTAINLY NOT. NOR DID I TAKE ANY STEPS IN THAT DIRECTION DURING THE WHOLE OF THAT WEEK I WAS NOT PRESSED FOR TIME. BESIDES I WAS TURNING THINGS OVER IN MY MIND BUT THAT WAS NO REASON WHY THE MONDAY WEEK FOLLOWING FOUR OF HER BROTHERS SHOULD HAVE CALLED ON ME ON THEIR WAY TO THE OFFICE WHEN I WAS SCARCELY OUT OF BED AND ACTUALLY BREAKFASTING AND ASSAILED ME IN THE WAY IN WHICH THEY DID. THERE WAS WILLIAM HENRY JOHN FRANK FERDINAND AUGUSTUS AND STEPHEN ARTHUR. EACH OF THEM TWICE MY SIZE AND ALL OF THEM FRIGHTFULLY IGNORANT AND WHOLLY REGARDLESS OF THE SENSITIVE LITTLE POINTS OF THOSE WITH WHOM THEY CAME IN CONTACT. THERE IS NO CIRCUMLOCUTION ABOUT THEM. THEY GO STRAIGHT AT WHAT THEY WANT AND WERE SCARCELY INSIDE MY DOOR BEFORE THEY BLURTED OUT THE PURPORT OF THEIR COMING. IT WAS FREDERICK AUGUSTUS IF THE THING IS POSSIBLE HE IS IF ANYTHING MORE DIRECT EVEN THAN THE REST OF HIS FAMILY. LOOK HERE WHITING HOW ABOUT MARY ANN'S RING. THE GIRL IS FRETTING BUT YOU DON'T SEEM TO NOTICE IT. AND AS YOU DON'T APPEAR TO KNOW WHAT IS THE PROPER THING TO DO IN A CASE OF THIS KIND AND DON'T UNDERSTAND THAT THE RING OUGHT TO BE BOUGHT STRAIGHT AWAY WE'VE BOUGHT IT FOR YOU. I GASPED POSITIVELY GASPED. AM I TO UNDERSTAND THAT YOU'VE PURCHASED MY ENGAGEMENT RING. THAT'S IT ON YOUR ACCOUNT. FROM A COUSIN OF OURS WHO'S IN THAT LINE. I NEVER SAW PEOPLE LIKE THE SNELLINGS FOR POSSESSING RELATIVES IN ALL SORTS OF LINES

+NO MATTER WHAT YOU WANT OR DO NOT WANT AND NEVER WILL WANT THEY ARE SURE TO HAVE SOME RELATIVE WHO HAS DEALT IN IT HIS OR HER WHOLE LIFE LONG. THEY PRODUCED THE RING AND TOLD ME WHAT I HAD TO PAY FOR IT A HANDSOME PRICE IT WAS. I WAS PERSUADED THAT SOMEBODY BESIDES THAT COUSIN GOT A PROFIT OUT OF MARY ANN'S ENGAGEMENT RING BUT I HANDED OVER THE AMOUNT. I DID NOT WANT ANY UNPLEASANTNESS AND I AM QUITE SURE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN UNPLEASANTNESS HAD I DEMURRED. LATER IN THE DAY I TOOK IT WITH ME WHEN I WENT TO CALL ON MARY ANN. SHE APPEARED TO BE SURPRISED ALMOST INTO SPEECHLESSNESS WHEN I PRESENTED IT TO HER. THE MOMENTS WHEN I AM ALONE WITH MARY ANN ARE ALLEVIATIONS FOR THOSE MORE FREQUENT MOMENTS WHEN I AM NOT ALONE WITH MARY ANN. STILL I NOTICED THAT THE RING FITTED HER PERFECTLY AND I COULD NOT BUT WONDER IF SHE HAD TRIED IT ON BEFORE. IT IS FROM HER ACTION IN THAT MATTER THAT MY SUSPICION SPRINGS. THE WOMAN'S NAME IS BRADY. THERE SHE OWNS A COTTAGE OR IT MAY BE A PIGSTYE FOR ALL I KNOW. WHEN SHE HEARD OF MY ENGAGEMENT WITH MARY ANN SHE WROTE AND SUGGESTED THAT WE SHOULD SPEND OUR HONEYMOON IN HER COTTAGE OR PIGSTYE AND THAT I SHOULD PAY HER RENT FOR IT. THE MATTER WAS TALKED ABOUT AT DINNER. MARY ANN WAS SILENT FOR SOME TIME THEN SHE QUIETLY REMARKED. DON'T TROUBLE YOURSELVES TO DISCUSS AUNT BRADY'S PROPOSAL. I SHALL DO NOTHING OF THE KIND. THIS OBSERVATION WAS FOLLOWED BY PERFECT SILENCE. THE MEMBERS OF THE FAMILY LOOKED AT ONE ANOTHER. MARY ANN BEAMED AT ME AND SHE SAID YOU DEAR OLD MAN. PRESENTLY SHE CONTINUED. DO YOU KNOW THAT IN MARRYING ME YOU ARE DOING THE BEST THING FOR YOURSELF THAT YOU EVER DID IN ALL YOUR LIFE. I ENDEAVOURED TO EXPLAIN TO HER THAT I FELT SURE OF IT BUT I FEAR THAT MY EXPLANATION WAS A LITTLE STUMBLING. BUT SHE WENT ON WITH THE MOST PERFECT FLUENCY. THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF FALTERING ABOUT HER FLOW OF LANGUAGE. YOU WANT SOMEONE WHO CAN LOOK AFTER YOU AND YOU COULD NOT BY ANY CHANCE HAVE CHOSEN A PERSON WHO WILL LOOK AFTER YOU BETTER THAN I SHALL. SUCH AN ASSURANCE WAS MOST SATISFACTORY. WE HAD A LONG CONFIDENTIAL CHAT ON MATTERS OF BUSINESS. I FOUND THAT AS A WOMAN OF BUSINESS SHE WAS BEYOND ALL MY EXPECTATIONS. I TOLD HER EXACTLY WHAT MY INCOME WAS AND THE SOURCE FROM WHICH IT CAME AND ALL ABOUT IT. SHE DREW UP A PLAN ON WHICH WE WERE TO LAY IT OUT. IT WAS AN ADMIRABLE PLAN. I HAD NEVER HAD ONE BUT I SAW CLEARLY THAT IN THAT WAY THE MONEY WOULD GO TWICE AS FAR. IT TURNED OUT THAT SHE HAD A LITTLE MONEY OF HER OWN ABOUT A HUNDRED AND THIRTY POUNDS A YEAR. AND OF COURSE I HAD MY EXPECTATIONS AND SHE HAD HERS. IT WAS PLAIN THAT TOGETHER WE SHOULD MANAGE MOST COMFORTABLY DELIGHTFULLY IN FACT. IT WAS WONDERFUL TO LISTEN TO HER REALLY WONDERFUL. I SHALL MAKE PAPA GIVE ME FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS AT LEAST. A BIRD IN THE HAND IS WORTH TWO IN A BUSH' AND IT WILL BE SOMETHING TO HAVE BY US. I KNOW WHAT MAMMA CAN AFFORD TO GIVE AND I WILL SEE SHE GIVES IT. AND I WILL SEE THAT THERE IS NO SHIRKING ABOUT THE BOYS OR ABOUT THE GIRLS EITHER. I WILL TAKE CARE THAT MY RELATIONS DO THEIR DUTY. I HAVE DRAWN UP A LIST OF ALL THE PEOPLE WHO OUGHT TO GIVE US A PRESENT AND I SHALL TELL THEM WHAT THEY OUGHT TO GIVE IT WON'T BE MY FAULT IF I DON'T GET IT. OF COURSE THERE ARE SOME PEOPLE WITH WHOM YOU CAN'T BE PERFECTLY PLAIN BUT I SHALL BE AS PLAIN AS I CAN THERE'S A WAY AND A MANNER OF DOING THAT KIND OF THING. I HAVE NO INTENTION OF BEING PRESENTED WITH AN ENDLESS COLLECTION OF DUPLICATES OR A LOT OF USELESS RUBBISH WHICH I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH

+IF YOU TAKE MY ADVICE YOU WILL FOLLOW IN MY FOOTSTEPS I ENDEAVOURED TO. BUT I AM BOUND TO ADMIT THAT SO FAR MY SUCCESS HAS BEEN AS NOTHING COMPARED WITH HERS. HERS HAS BEEN PRODIGIOUS. IT IS CERTAIN THAT WE HAVE A LARGE COLLECTION OF REALLY VALUABLE PROPERTY ABOUT THE HOUSE THE WEDDING PRESENTS TO MARY ANN. SHE HAS A KNACK OF GETTING PEOPLE TO DO WHAT SHE WISHES AND TO GIVE HER WHAT SHE WANTS WHICH IS A LITTLE SHORT OF MIRACULOUS. A SINGULAR FEATURE ABOUT THE SITUATION IS THAT PEOPLE ARE ACTUALLY BEGINNING TO PITY ME TO SYMPATHISE WITH ME FOR BEING ABOUT TO MARRY MARY ANN. I NOTICE THAT THEY ARE GENERALLY PERSONS WHO HAVE ALREADY TENDERED THEIR OFFERINGS. THE FACT OF HAVING GIVEN MARY ANN A WEDDING PRESENT SEEMS TO FILL THEM WITH A FEELING OF RANCOROUS ACIDITY WHICH TO ME IS INEXPLICABLE. MY BELIEF IS THAT THEY HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO SPEND AT LEAST TWICE AS MUCH AS THEY INTENDED AND THAT THEY RESENT IT. SUCH IS THE SELFISHNESS OF HUMAN NATURE. BUT WHY ON THAT ACCOUNT THEY SHOULD PITY ME I ALTOGETHER FAIL TO UNDERSTAND. WE HAVE ALL BEEN GIVING MARY ANN PRESENTS AND I SUPPOSE YOU MISTER WHITING HAVE BEEN GIVING HER SOMETHING TOO. THAT WAS WHAT MISSUS MACPHERSON SAID TO ME ONLY THE OTHER DAY. I HAVE GIVEN MARY ANN TWO OR THREE TRIFLES AND I SAID SO. AND WHAT INQUIRED MISSUS MACPHERSON HAS MARY ANN GIVEN YOU HER LOVE. SOMEONE SNIGGERED. I CANNOT PRETEND TO EXPLAIN WHY EXCEPT ON THE SUPPOSITION THAT ROMANCE IS DEAD AT LEAST IN THAT CIRCLE OF SOCIETY IN WHICH THE SNELLINGS MOVE. BUT THAT IS NOT THE ONLY SOCIETY THE WORLD CONTAINS. AS A MATTER OF FACT MARY ANN HAS GIVEN ME A PAIR OF SLIPPERS WORKED BY HER OWN HANDS. IT IS TRUE THAT THEY ARE A TRIFLE LARGE FOR ME AND THAT I SHALL NEVER BE ABLE TO KEEP THEM ON MY FEET EXCEPT WHEN I AM SITTING STILL. BUT MARY ANN DOES NOT SEEM TO THINK THAT THAT MATTERS SO WHY SHOULD I. HER YOUNGEST SISTER CLARA LOUISA HAS QUITE GRATUITOUSLY INFORMED ME THAT SHE HAS HAD THEM BY HER FOR SOME CONSIDERABLE TIME AND THAT NOT TO PUT TOO FINE A POINT ON IT THEY WERE ORIGINALLY DESIGNED FOR ANOTHER INDIVIDUAL ALTOGETHER A MISTER PILBEAM. BUT EVEN SUPPOSING THAT WHAT CLARA LOUISA SAYS IS TRUE OF WHICH I HAVE NO EVIDENCE I HAVE SURELY CAUSE TO CONGRATULATE MYSELF ON STANDING LITERALLY IN MISTER PILBEAM'S SHOES EVEN IF THEY ARE A LITTLE SPACIOUS. ON THE WHOLE I DO NOT KNOW THAT I REGRET THAT ACCIDENT I HAD WITH MARY ANN. IT IS TRUE THAT THERE ARE TIMES WHEN I AM A LITTLE DISPOSED TO WISH THAT SHE WERE NOT QUITE SO GOOD A MANAGER NOW AND THEN EVERY MAN LIKES TO CALL HIS SOUL HIS OWN. ON THE OTHER HAND SHE IS WELL QUALIFIED TO PROTECT ME FROM THE REST OF THE FAMILY SHE WILL KEEP THEM AT BAY. IF SHE HAD BEEN LIKE ME THEY WOULD HAVE RENT US LIMB FROM LIMB. AS IT IS UNLESS I AM MISTAKEN SOME OF THE RENDING WILL BE ON OUR SIDE AND THEY KNOW IT. P S THE CARDS ARE OUT FOR THE WEDDING. IT IS TO TAKE PLACE ON TUESDAY FORTNIGHT. WE ARE GOING FOR OUR HONEYMOON TO ITALY AND THE SOUTH OF FRANCE. A SECOND COUSIN OF MARY ANN'S IS IN THE COOK'S TOURS LINE. HE HAS GIVEN US FREE PASSES ALL THE WAY TO THE END OF OUR JOURNEY AND ALL THE WAY BACK AGAIN AND COUPONS FOR FREE BOARD AND LODGING AT THE HOTEL IT'S A WEDDING PRESENT. SO THAT AS MARY ANN SAYS OUR HONEYMOON NEED COST US PRACTICALLY NOTHING. BESIDES WHICH WE CAN ALWAYS SELL THE COUPONS AND RAILWAY PASSES WHICH WE DON'T USE

+HE WAS YOUNG NO SPEAR HAD TOUCHED HIM NO POISON LURKED IN HIS WINE. BUT HIS VEINS STOOD OUT LIKE BLUE CORDS ON HIS TEMPLES AND HIS EYES DILATED WITH THE NEARNESS OF DEATH. WITH HER WAS THE WAZAM A NOBLE GROWN OLD IN THE ROYAL COURT. THE PRIESTS AND THEIR CLAMOR SHE EXCLAIMED. THEY ARE NO WISER THAN THE LEECHES WHO ARE HELPLESS. HE IS DYING NOW AND I STAND HERE HELPLESS WHO WOULD BURN THE WHOLE CITY AND SPILL THE BLOOD OF THOUSANDS TO SAVE HIM. THIS POISON. I TELL YOU IT IS NOT POISON SHE CRIED. SINCE HIS BIRTH HE HAS BEEN GUARDED SO CLOSELY THAT THE CLEVEREST POISONERS OF THE EAST COULD NOT REACH HIM. FIVE SKULLS BLEACHING ON THE TOWER OF THE KITES CAN TESTIFY TO ATTEMPTS WHICH WERE MADE AND WHICH FAILED. AS YOU WELL KNOW THERE ARE TEN MEN AND TEN WOMEN WHOSE SOLE DUTY IS TO TASTE HIS FOOD AND WINE AND FIFTY ARMED WARRIORS GUARD HIS CHAMBER AS THEY GUARD IT NOW. SHE CEASED AS THE KING SPOKE HIS LIVID LIPS DID NOT MOVE AND THERE WAS NO RECOGNITION IN HIS GLASSY EYES. BUT HIS VOICE ROSE IN AN EERY CALL INDISTINCT AND FAR AWAY AS IF CALLED TO HER FROM BEYOND VAST WIND BLOWN GULFS. YASMINA YASMINA. MY SISTER WHERE ARE YOU. I CAN NOT FIND YOU. ALL IS DARKNESS AND THE ROARING OF GREAT WINDS BROTHER. CRIED YASMINA CATCHING HIS LIMP HAND IN A CONVULSIVE GRASP. I AM HERE DO YOU NOT KNOW ME. HER VOICE DIED AT THE UTTER VACANCY OF HIS FACE. A LOW CONFUSED MOAN WANED FROM HIS MOUTH. THE SLAVE GIRLS AT THE FOOT OF THE DAIS WHIMPERED WITH FEAR AND YASMINA BEAT HER BREAST IN ANGUISH. IN ANOTHER PART OF THE CITY A MAN STOOD IN A LATTICED BALCONY OVERLOOKING A LONG STREET IN WHICH TORCHES TOSSED LURIDLY SMOKILY REVEALING UPTURNED DARK FACES AND THE WHITES OF GLEAMING EYES. A LONG DRAWN WAILING ROSE FROM THE MULTITUDE. THE MAN SHRUGGED HIS BROAD SHOULDERS AND TURNED BACK INTO THE ARABESQUE CHAMBER. HE WAS A TALL MAN COMPACTLY BUILT AND RICHLY CLAD. THE KING IS NOT YET DEAD BUT THE DIRGE IS SOUNDED HE SAID TO ANOTHER MAN WHO SAT CROSS LEGGED ON A MAT IN A CORNER. THIS MAN WAS CLAD IN A BROWN CAMEL HAIR ROBE AND SANDALS AND A GREEN TURBAN WAS ON HIS HEAD. HIS EXPRESSION WAS TRANQUIL HIS GAZE IMPERSONAL. THE PEOPLE KNOW HE WILL NEVER SEE ANOTHER DAWN THIS MAN ANSWERED. THE FIRST SPEAKER FAVORED HIM WITH A LONG SEARCHING STARE. WHAT I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND HE SAID IS WHY I HAVE HAD TO WAIT SO LONG FOR YOUR MASTERS TO STRIKE. IF THEY HAVE SLAIN THE KING NOW WHY COULD THEY NOT HAVE SLAIN HIM MONTHS AGO. EVEN THE ARTS YOU CALL SORCERY ARE GOVERNED BY COSMIC LAWS ANSWERED THE MAN IN THE GREEN TURBAN. THE STARS DIRECT THESE ACTIONS AS IN OTHER AFFAIRS. NOT EVEN MY MASTERS CAN ALTER THE STARS. NOT UNTIL THE HEAVENS WERE IN THE PROPER ORDER COULD THEY PERFORM THIS NECROMANCY. WITH A LONG STAINED FINGERNAIL HE MAPPED THE CONSTELLATIONS ON THE MARBLE TILED FLOOR. THE SLANT OF THE MOON PRESAGED EVIL FOR THE KING OF VENDHYA THE STARS ARE IN TURMOIL THE SERPENT IN THE HOUSE OF THE ELEPHANT. DURING SUCH JUXTAPOSITION THE INVISIBLE GUARDIANS ARE REMOVED FROM THE SPIRIT OF BHUNDA CHAND

DO YOU MEAN THAT LOCK OF BHUNDA CHAND'S HAIR YES. ALL DISCARDED PORTIONS OF THE HUMAN BODY STILL REMAIN PART OF IT ATTACHED TO IT BY INTANGIBLE CONNECTIONS. BUT AT THE URGENT ENTREATY OF THE PRINCESS OF KHOSALA WHO LOVED BHUNDA CHAND VAINLY HE GAVE HER A LOCK OF HIS LONG BLACK HAIR AS A TOKEN OF REMEMBRANCE. WHEN MY MASTERS DECIDED UPON HIS DOOM THE LOCK IN ITS GOLDEN JEWEL ENCRUSTED CASE WAS STOLEN FROM UNDER HER PILLOW WHILE SHE SLEPT AND ANOTHER SUBSTITUTED SO LIKE THE FIRST THAT SHE NEVER KNEW THE DIFFERENCE. ONLY A LOCK OF HAIR MURMURED THE NOBLEMAN. BY WHICH A SOUL IS DRAWN FROM ITS BODY AND ACROSS GULFS OF ECHOING SPACE RETURNED THE MAN ON THE MAT. THE NOBLEMAN STUDIED HIM CURIOUSLY. I DO NOT KNOW IF YOU ARE A MAN OR A DEMON KHEMSA HE SAID AT LAST. FEW OF US ARE WHAT WE SEEM. I WHOM THE KSHATRIYAS KNOW AS KERIM SHAH A PRINCE FROM IRANISTAN AM NO GREATER A MASQUERADER THAN MOST MEN. THEY ARE ALL TRAITORS IN ONE WAY OR ANOTHER AND HALF OF THEM KNOW NOT WHOM THEY SERVE.

AND I THE BLACK SEERS OF YIMSHA SAID KHEMSA AND MY MASTERS ARE GREATER THAN YOURS FOR THEY HAVE ACCOMPLISHED BY THEIR ARTS WHAT YEZDIGERD COULD NOT WITH A HUNDRED THOUSAND SWORDS. OUTSIDE THE MOAN OF THE TORTURED THOUSANDS SHUDDERED UP TO THE STARS WHICH CRUSTED THE SWEATING VENDHYAN NIGHT AND THE CONCHS BELLOWED LIKE OXEN IN PAIN. IN THE GARDENS OF THE PALACE THE TORCHES GLINTED ON POLISHED HELMETS AND CURVED SWORDS AND GOLD CHASED CORSELETS. ON THE DAIS UNDER THE GOLDEN DOME THE KING CRIED OUT AGAIN RACKED BY AWFUL PAROXYSMS. YASMINA. AGAIN THAT FAR WEIRDLY DREEING CRY FROM REALMS IMMEASURABLE AID ME. I AM FAR FROM MY MORTAL HOUSE. WIZARDS HAVE DRAWN MY SOUL THROUGH THE WIND BLOWN DARKNESS.

THEY WOULD SLAY MY BODY AND DAMN MY SOUL. AT THE TERROR IN HIS HOPELESS CRY YASMINA SCREAMED UNCONTROLLABLY AND THREW HERSELF BODILY UPON HIM IN THE ABANDON OF HER ANGUISH. BUT THE GLASSY BLANKNESS PASSED FROM HIS EYES LIKE SMOKE BLOWN FROM A FIRE AND HE LOOKED UP AT HIS SISTER WITH RECOGNITION. BROTHER SHE SOBBED. BROTHER SWIFT. HE GASPED AND HIS WEAKENING VOICE WAS RATIONAL. I KNOW NOW WHAT BRINGS ME TO THE PYRE. I HAVE BEEN ON A FAR JOURNEY AND I UNDERSTAND. I HAVE BEEN ENSORCELLED BY THE WIZARDS OF THE HIMELIANS. THEY DREW MY SOUL OUT OF MY BODY AND FAR AWAY INTO A STONE ROOM. THERE THEY STROVE TO BREAK THE SILVER CORD OF LIFE AND THRUST MY SOUL INTO THE BODY OF A FOUL NIGHT WEIRD THEIR SORCERY SUMMONED UP FROM HELL AH. I FEEL THEIR PULL UPON ME NOW.

+IVAN FITZGERALD FINALLY ISOLATED THE GERM THAT HAD CAUSED THE FINCHLEY GIRL'S UNDIAGNOSED ILLNESS. SHORTLY AFTERWARD THE MALADY TURNED INTO A MILD FEVER FROM WHICH SHE RECOVERED. NOBODY ELSE SEEMED TO HAVE CAUGHT IT. FITZGERALD WAS STILL TRYING TO FIND OUT HOW THE GERM HAD BEEN TRANSMITTED. THEY FOUND A GLOBE OF MARS MADE WHEN THE CITY HAD BEEN A SEAPORT. THEY ALSO FOUND A MARTIAN CALENDAR THE YEAR HAD BEEN DIVIDED INTO TEN MORE OR LESS EQUAL MONTHS AND ONE OF THEM HAD BEEN DOMA. BILL CHANDLER THE ZOOLOGIST HAD BEEN GOING DEEPER AND DEEPER INTO THE OLD SEA BOTTOM OF SYRTIS. FOUR HUNDRED MILES FROM KUKAN AND AT FIFTEEN THOUSAND FEET LOWER ALTITUDE HE SHOT A BIRD. AT LEAST IT WAS A SOMETHING WITH WINGS AND WHAT WERE ALMOST BUT NOT QUITE FEATHERS THOUGH IT WAS MORE REPTILIAN THAN AVIAN IN GENERAL CHARACTERISTICS. HE AND IVAN FITZGERALD SKINNED AND MOUNTED IT AND THEN DISSECTED THE CARCASS ALMOST TISSUE BY TISSUE. THAT TOOK THE CENTER OF INTEREST AWAY FROM ARCHAEOLOGY AND STARTED A NEW BURST OF ACTIVITY. ALL THE EXPEDITION'S AIRCRAFT FOUR JETTICOPTERS AND THREE WINGLESS AIRDYNE RECONNAISSANCE FIGHTERS WERE THROWN INTO INTENSIFIED EXPLORATION OF THE LOWER SEA BOTTOMS AND THE BIO SCIENCE BOYS AND GIRLS WERE WILD WITH EXCITEMENT AND MAKING NEW DISCOVERIES ON EACH FLIGHT. THE UNIVERSITY WAS LEFT TO SELIM AND MARTHA AND TONY LATTIMER THE LATTER KEEPING TO HIMSELF WHILE SHE AND THE OLD TURCO GERMAN WORKED TOGETHER. THE CIVILIAN SPECIALISTS IN OTHER FIELDS AND THE SPACE FORCE PEOPLE WHO HAD BEEN HOLDING TAPE LINES AND MAKING SKETCHES AND SNAPPING CAMERAS WERE ALL FLYING TO LOWER SYRTIS TO FIND OUT HOW MUCH OXYGEN THERE WAS AND WHAT KIND OF LIFE IT SUPPORTED. SOMETIMES SACHIKO DROPPED IN MOST OF THE TIME SHE WAS BUSY HELPING IVAN FITZGERALD DISSECT SPECIMENS. THEY HAD FOUR OR FIVE SPECIES OF WHAT MIGHT LOOSELY BE CALLED BIRDS AND SOMETHING THAT COULD EASILY BE CLASSED AS A REPTILE AND A CARNIVOROUS MAMMAL THE SIZE OF A CAT WITH BIRDLIKE CLAWS AND A HERBIVORE ALMOST IDENTICAL WITH THE PIGLIKE THING IN THE BIG DARFHULVA MURAL AND ANOTHER LIKE A GAZELLE WITH A SINGLE HORN IN THE MIDDLE OF ITS FOREHEAD. THE DAILY NEWSCASTS FROM TERRA SHOWED A CORRESPONDING SHIFT IN INTEREST AT HOME. THE DISCOVERY OF THE UNIVERSITY HAD FOCUSED ATTENTION ON THE DEAD PAST OF MARS NOW THE PUBLIC WAS INTERESTED IN MARS AS A POSSIBLE HOME FOR HUMANITY. IT WAS TONY LATTIMER WHO BROUGHT ARCHAEOLOGY BACK INTO THE ACTIVITIES OF THE EXPEDITION AND THE NEWS AT HOME. IT WAS ONE OF THESE A YOUNG SECOND LIEUTENANT WHO CAME HURRYING IN FROM THE MEZZANINE ALMOST BURSTING WITH EXCITEMENT. HEY MARTHA DOCTOR VON OHLMHORST. HE WAS SHOUTING WHERE ARE YOU. TONY'S FOUND THE MARTIANS. THEY ASKED TOGETHER OVER ON THE NORTH SIDE. THE LIEUTENANT TOOK HOLD OF HIMSELF AND SPOKE MORE DELIBERATELY. LITTLE ROOM BACK OF ONE OF THE OLD FACULTY OFFICES CONFERENCE ROOM. IT WAS LOCKED FROM THE INSIDE AND WE HAD TO BURN IT DOWN WITH A TORCH THAT'S WHERE THEY ARE. EIGHTEEN OF THEM AROUND A LONG TABLE. GLORIA STANDISH WHO HAD DROPPED IN FOR LUNCH WAS ON THE MEZZANINE FAIRLY SCREAMING INTO A RADIOPHONE EXTENSION DOZEN AND A HALF OF THEM. WELL OF COURSE THEY'RE DEAD WHAT A QUESTION. THEY LOOK LIKE SKELETONS COVERED WITH LEATHER. NO I DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY DIED OF. WELL FORGET IT I DON'T CARE IF BILL CHANDLER'S FOUND A THREE HEADED HIPPOPOTAMUS

+SID DON'T YOU GET IT. WE'VE FOUND THE MARTIANS. SHE SLAMMED THE PHONE BACK ON ITS HOOK RUSHING AWAY AHEAD OF THEM. MARTHA REMEMBERED THE CLOSED DOOR ON THE FIRST SURVEY THEY HADN'T ATTEMPTED OPENING IT. NOW IT WAS BURNED AWAY AT BOTH SIDES AND LAY STILL HOT ALONG THE EDGES ON THE FLOOR OF THE BIG OFFICE ROOM IN FRONT. A FLOODLIGHT WAS ON IN THE ROOM INSIDE AND LATTIMER WAS GOING AROUND LOOKING AT THINGS WHILE A SPACE FORCE OFFICER STOOD BY THE DOOR. THE CENTER OF THE ROOM WAS FILLED BY A LONG TABLE IN ARMCHAIRS AROUND IT SAT THE EIGHTEEN MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAD OCCUPIED THE ROOM FOR THE LAST FIFTY MILLENNIA. ANOTHER HAD FALLEN FORWARD ONTO THE TABLE ARMS EXTENDED THE EMERALD SET OF A RING TWINKLING DULLY ON ONE FINGER. SKELETONS COVERED WITH LEATHER GLORIA STANDISH HAD CALLED THEM AND SO THEY WERE FACES LIKE SKULLS ARMS AND LEGS LIKE STICKS THE FLESH SHRUNKEN ONTO THE BONES UNDER IT. ISN'T THIS SOMETHING LATTIMER WAS EXULTING. MASS SUICIDE THAT'S WHAT IT WAS NOTICE WHAT'S IN THE CORNERS. BRAZIERS MADE OF PERFORATED TWO GALLON ODD METAL CANS THE WHITE WALLS SMUDGED WITH SMOKE ABOVE THEM. VON OHLMHORST HAD NOTICED THEM AT ONCE AND WAS POKING INTO ONE OF THEM WITH HIS FLASHLIGHT. YES CHARCOAL. I NOTICED A QUANTITY OF IT AROUND A COUPLE OF HAND FORGES IN THE SHOP ON THE FIRST FLOOR. THAT'S WHY YOU HAD SO MUCH TROUBLE BREAKING IN THEY'D SEALED THE ROOM ON THE INSIDE. HE STRAIGHTENED AND WENT AROUND THE ROOM UNTIL HE FOUND A VENTILATOR AND PEERED INTO IT STUFFED WITH RAGS. THEY MUST HAVE BEEN ALL THAT WERE LEFT HERE. THEIR POWER WAS GONE AND THEY WERE OLD AND TIRED AND ALL AROUND THEM THEIR WORLD WAS DYING. SO THEY JUST CAME IN HERE AND LIT THE CHARCOAL AND SAT DRINKING TOGETHER TILL THEY ALL FELL ASLEEP. WELL WE KNOW WHAT BECAME OF THEM NOW ANYHOW. SID AND GLORIA MADE THE MOST OF IT. THE TERRAN PUBLIC WANTED TO HEAR ABOUT MARTIANS AND IF LIVE MARTIANS COULDN'T BE FOUND A ROOM FULL OF DEAD ONES WAS THE NEXT BEST THING. MAYBE AN EVEN BETTER THING IT HAD BEEN ONLY SIXTY ODD YEARS SINCE THE ORSON WELLES INVASION SCARE. TONY LATTIMER THE DISCOVERER WAS BEGINNING TO CASH IN ON HIS ATTENTIONS TO GLORIA AND HIS INGRATIATION WITH SID HE WAS ALWAYS EITHER MAKING VOICE AND IMAGE TALKS FOR TELECAST OR LISTENING TO THE NEWS FROM THE HOME PLANET. WITHOUT QUESTION HE HAD BECOME OVERNIGHT THE MOST WIDELY KNOWN ARCHAEOLOGIST IN HISTORY. NOT THAT I'M INTERESTED IN ALL THIS FOR MYSELF HE DISCLAIMED AFTER LISTENING TO THE TELECAST FROM TERRA TWO DAYS AFTER HIS DISCOVERY. BUT THIS IS GOING TO BE A BIG THING FOR MARTIAN ARCHAEOLOGY. BRING IT TO THE PUBLIC ATTENTION DRAMATIZE IT. IN NINETEEN TWENTY THREE. I REALLY DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH THAT PUBLICITY EVER DID FOR EGYPTOLOGY. OH THE MUSEUMS DID DEVOTE MORE SPACE TO EGYPTIAN EXHIBITS AND AFTER A MUSEUM DEPARTMENT HEAD GETS A FEW EXTRA SHOWCASES YOU KNOW HOW HARD IT IS TO MAKE HIM GIVE THEM UP. AND FOR A WHILE IT WAS EASIER TO GET FINANCIAL SUPPORT FOR NEW EXCAVATIONS. BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW MUCH GOOD ALL THIS PUBLIC EXCITEMENT REALLY DOES IN THE LONG RUN. I'D HOPED IT WOULD BE YOU YOUR VOICE WOULD CARRY THE MOST WEIGHT. WE MUST NOT ALLOW THE OTHER SCIENTIFIC FIELDS AND THE SO CALLED PRACTICAL INTERESTS TO MONOPOLIZE PUBLIC AND ACADEMIC SUPPORT. SO I BELIEVE I SHALL GO BACK AT LEAST FOR A WHILE AND SEE WHAT I CAN DO. LECTURES

AS YOU KNOW TOM MISTER FABER BEGAN THE USUAL CONDITIONS OF ROCKET FLIGHT WILL BE. HE BROKE OFF WITH A GASP OF ASTONISHMENT AS THE WHOLE BUILDING SUDDENLY BEGAN TO SHAKE. GOOD GRIEF BUD EXCLAIMED. THIS ISN'T PART OF YOUR TESTING ROUTINE IS IT. ANOTHER ENGINEER RUSHED TOWARD THE DOOR TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING OUTSIDE. ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT CASCADED FROM THE WALL SHELVES AND A HEAVY DUTY CHAIN HOIST CAME LOOSE FROM ITS OVERHEAD TRACK PLUNGING TO THE FLOOR WITH A TERRIFYING CRASH. AN EARTHQUAKE TOM GASPED. BUD MEANWHILE CLAWED A HANDHOLD ON A WIRE SCREEN ENCLOSING AN AIR COMPRESSOR AND PULLED HIMSELF TO HIS FEET. BUT THE NEXT MOMENT A THIRD MORE VIOLENT TREMOR ROCKED THE BUILDING KNOCKING HIM OVER. AS HIS EYES FLASHED UPWARD IN PANIC BUD CAUGHT A BRIEF GLIMPSE OF THE PONDEROUS TEST STAND WITH THE PRICELESS TELEMETER TILTING TO ONE SIDE. AN INSTANT LATER IT CRASHED OVER PINNING MARK FABER BENEATH IT. BUD THREW UP HIS ARMS TO PROTECT HIMSELF BUT TOO LATE. A FALLING BEAM CAUGHT HIM ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD AND THE YOUNG FLIER BLACKED OUT. FOR MINUTES NO ONE STIRRED AMONG THE WRECKAGE. THEN TOM WHO HAD BEEN STUNNED BY SOME FALLING DEBRIS RAISED HIMSELF TO A SITTING POSITION. GOOD NIGHT. TOM'S EYES FOCUSED IN HORROR ON THE WRECKAGE ENVELOPED BY STILL BILLOWING DUST. THE SKY WAS VISIBLE THROUGH SEVERAL GAPING HOLES IN THE ROOF WHICH WAS SAGGING DANGEROUSLY ON ITS SUPPORTING TRUSSES. ONLY TWO THIRDS OF THE WALLS WERE STILL STANDING. SUDDENLY TOM STIFFENED IN FEAR BUD. THE YOUNG INVENTOR HAD JUST NOTICED HIS FRIEND LYING PINNED BENEATH A HEAVY BEAM NEARBY. WAS HE STILL BREATHING. DISREGARDING HIS OWN INJURIES TOM HASTILY FREED HIMSELF FROM THE DEBRIS AND GROPED HIS WAY TO BUD'S SIDE. WITH A DESPERATE HEAVE HE SHOVED THE BEAM AWAY THEN CRADLED BUD'S HEAD IN HIS ARM. HIS FRIEND'S EYELIDS FLICKERED. ARE YOU ALL RIGHT TOM ASKED FEARFULLY. THE ANSWER CAME IN A GROAN. YOU GOT CONKED BY A FALLING TIMBER. OR GRAZED AT LEAST TOM ADDED THANKFULLY. IF THAT BEAM HAD LANDED SQUARE ON YOUR NOGGIN EVEN A ROCK HEAD LIKE YOU COULDN'T HAVE SURVIVED. BUD MANAGED TO GRIN. WE GROW EM TOUGH OUT IN CALIFORNIA WHERE I COME FROM HE JOKED. SOMEWHAT SHAKILY BUD GOT TO HIS FEET WITH TOM'S ASSISTANCE. BOTH BOYS WERE HEARTSICK AS THEY SURVEYED THE DAMAGED LABORATORY WONDERING WHERE TO BEGIN RESCUE OPERATIONS. IT WAS A QUAKE BUD STATED GRIMLY. HE HAD HEARD ABOUT THE GREAT SAN FRANCISCO EARTHQUAKE FROM HIS GRANDFATHER AND HAD NO DOUBT ABOUT THE NATURE OF THE TREMORS. JUST THEN TOM GLIMPSED A BODY PROTRUDING FROM UNDER THE WRECKAGE OF THE TELEMETERING DEVICE. MISTER FABER HE GASPED. THE TWO BOYS SCRAMBLED THROUGH THE CLUTTER OF DEBRIS TOWARD THE SPOT WHERE THE TEST STAND HAD BEEN ERECTED. BUD SEIZED A SLENDER STEEL I BEAM AND MANAGED TO PRY UP THE WRECKAGE WHILE TOM CAREFULLY EXTRICATED MISTER FABER. THE SCIENTIST SEEMED TO BE BADLY INJURED. WE'D BETTER NOT TRY TO MOVE HIM TOM DECIDED WE'LL GET AN AMBULANCE

+OF THE FOUR OTHER COMPANY ENGINEERS TWO WERE NOW STIRRING AND PARTLY CONSCIOUS. THE BOYS FOUND A FIRST AID CABINET AND GAVE WHAT HELP THEY COULD TO THEM AND THE OTHER TWO MEN. THEN TOM TAPED A BANDAGE ON BUD'S SCALP WOUND. LET'S SEE IF WE CAN FIND A TELEPHONE AND CALL THE LOCAL HOSPITAL TOM SAID. RIGHT BUD RESPONDED. THEY PICKED THEIR WAY THROUGH THE WRECKAGE AND EMERGED ON A SCENE OF FRIGHTFUL DESTRUCTION. THE MAIN PLANT BUILDING OF FABER ELECTRONICS HAD BEEN PARTIALLY DEMOLISHED BY THE QUAKE. POWER LINES WERE DOWN AND AN OUTLYING STORAGE SHED WAS ABLAZE. DAZED AND PANIC STRICKEN SURVIVORS WERE WANDERING AROUND AIMLESSLY OR RUSHING ABOUT TO ASSIST THE INJURED. GOOD THING THE MAIN SHIFT OF WORKERS KNOCKED OFF BEFORE THIS HAPPENED BUD OBSERVED WITH A SHUDDER. THERE WOULD'VE BEEN A LOT MORE CASUALTIES LOOK. TOM POINTED TO A HUGE CREVASSE. RIGHT WHERE WE LANDED OUR WHIRLING DUCK. THE BOYS EXCHANGED RUEFUL GLANCES AS THEY REALIZED THAT THE CRAFT WHICH HAD BROUGHT THEM TO FABER ELECTRONICS ONE OF TOM'S UNIQUE HELIJETS HAD BEEN SWALLOWED UP IN THE GAPING CHASM. NO USE FUSSING ABOUT IT NOW TOM SAID COME ON BUD. LET'S SEE ABOUT GETTING HELP FOR MISTER FABER. DESPITE THE CHAOTIC CONFUSION THE BOYS MANAGED TO LOCATE THE PLANT SUPERINTENDENT A HARRIED MIDDLE AGED MAN NAMED SIMKINS WHO WAS DOING HIS BEST TO RESTORE ORDER. SIMKINS WHO HAD NOT BEEN INJURED INFORMED THEM THAT ELECTRICIANS WERE RIGGING AN EMERGENCY TELEPHONE LINE IN ORDER TO GET THROUGH TO THE NEARBY TOWN OF HARKNESS. MISTER FABER IS BADLY INJURED TOM SAID WHY NOT SEND A CAR. IT'S ONLY A FEW MILES AWAY ISN'T IT. HE POINTED WITH A JERK OF HIS THUMB. THE CARS ON THE LOT HAD BEEN SMASHED INTO JUNK BY BRICKS FROM A COLLAPSING WALL OF ONE OF THE BUILDINGS. AND THE ONLY TRUCK WE HAD AVAILABLE WAS IN THAT BURNING SHED THE SUPERINTENDENT ADDED BITTERLY. ANYHOW WE WANT TO HELP GOT A JOB FOR US. SIMKINS WAS ONLY TOO GLAD TO PUT TOM'S QUICK MIND AND KEEN TECHNICAL KNOW HOW TO USE. WITHIN MINUTES TOM WAS IN CHARGE OF CLEARING AWAY RUBBLE AND EXTRICATING ANYONE WHO MIGHT BE TRAPPED INSIDE THE BUILDINGS. BUD ORGANIZED A FIRE FIGHTING CREW TO KEEP THE BLAZE IN THE SHED FROM SPREADING. THE TELEPHONE LINE WAS SOON REPAIRED AND A STEADY STREAM OF RESCUE VEHICLES BEGAN ARRIVING FROM HARKNESS FIRE TRUCKS THREE AMBULANCES AND PRIVATE CARS DRIVEN BY VOLUNTEERS. TWO HOURS LATER THERE WAS NOTHING MORE TOM AND BUD COULD DO AT THE DISASTER SCENE AND THEY HITCHED A RIDE INTO HARKNESS. THE TOWN HAD SUFFERED SOME DAMAGE THOUGH ONLY SLIGHT COMPARED TO THE DESTRUCTION AT THE PLANT. THE CENTER OF THE QUAKE WAS RIGHT UNDER FABER ELECTRONICS TOM REMARKED. FROM A PAY TELEPHONE HE CALLED SWIFT ENTERPRISES IN SHOPTON. THIS WAS THE EXPERIMENTAL STATION WHERE HE AND HIS FATHER DEVELOPED THEIR MANY AMAZING INVENTIONS. TOM ASKED THE OPERATOR TO SEND A HELICOPTER IMMEDIATELY TO PICK THEM UP. HE ALSO CALLED HOME AND SPOKE TO HIS SISTER SANDRA. WHAT A RELIEF SANDY GASPED. WE HEARD A BULLETIN ABOUT THE QUAKE OVER THE RADIO. DON'T WORRY SIS. TELL MOTHER AND DAD THAT WE'RE OKAY TOM SAID. WE'LL BE HOME IN A JIFFY WITH BIG APPETITES. THE HELICOPTER ARRIVED WITHIN TWENTY MINUTES AT THE PLACE TOM HAD NAMED. AFTER LANDING AT ENTERPRISES THE BOYS DROVE TO THE PLEASANT TREE SHADED SWIFT HOME ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN. MISSUS SWIFT A SLENDER PETITE WOMAN TRIED NOT TO SHOW CONCERN WHEN SHE SAW THE BOYS BRUISED AND DISHEVELED. I'M SO THANKFUL YOU'RE BOTH SAFE SHE MURMURED

HE SMILED GUILTILY AS HE ADDED BUT I MUST ADMIT I WAS MORE THAN A LITTLE CONCERNED MYSELF. AS TOM GRINNED THE RESEMBLANCE BETWEEN HIM AND HIS FATHER WAS VERY EVIDENT.

+THE WIND WAS FAIR NEVERTHELESS AND BLEW STEADILY FROM THE SOUTHWEST BUT THE CURRENTS WERE AGAINST THE SHIP'S COURSE AND SHE SCARCELY MADE ANY WAY. THE HEAVY LUMPY SEA STRAINED HER CORDAGE HER TIMBERS CREAKED AND SHE LABORED PAINFULLY IN THE TROUGH OF THE SEA. HER STANDING RIGGING WAS SO OUT OF ORDER THAT IT ALLOWED PLAY TO THE MASTS WHICH WERE VIOLENTLY SHAKEN AT EVERY ROLL OF THE SEA. FORTUNATELY WILL HALLEY WAS NOT A MAN IN A HURRY AND DID NOT USE A PRESS OF CANVAS OR HIS MASTS WOULD INEVITABLY HAVE COME DOWN. JOHN MANGLES THEREFORE HOPED THAT THE WRETCHED HULL WOULD REACH PORT WITHOUT ACCIDENT BUT IT GRIEVED HIM THAT HIS COMPANIONS SHOULD HAVE TO SUFFER SO MUCH DISCOMFORT FROM THE DEFECTIVE ARRANGEMENTS OF THE BRIG. THEY OFTEN BRAVED THE WEATHER AND WENT ON THE POOP TILL DRIVEN DOWN AGAIN BY THE FORCE OF A SUDDEN SQUALL. THEN THEY RETURNED TO THE NARROW SPACE FITTER FOR STOWING CARGO THAN ACCOMMODATING PASSENGERS ESPECIALLY LADIES. THEIR FRIENDS DID THEIR BEST TO AMUSE THEM. THEIR MINDS WERE SO DISTRACTED AT THIS CHANGE OF ROUTE AS TO BE QUITE UNHINGED. MUCH AS THEY HAD BEEN INTERESTED IN HIS DISSERTATION ON THE PAMPAS OR AUSTRALIA HIS LECTURES ON NEW ZEALAND FELL ON COLD AND INDIFFERENT EARS. BESIDES THEY WERE GOING TO THIS NEW AND ILL REPUTED COUNTRY WITHOUT ENTHUSIASM WITHOUT CONVICTION NOT EVEN OF THEIR OWN FREE WILL BUT SOLELY AT THE BIDDING OF DESTINY. HE WAS RARELY TO BE SEEN BELOW. HE COULD NOT STAY IN ONE PLACE. HIS NERVOUS ORGANIZATION HIGHLY EXCITED COULD NOT SUBMIT TO CONFINEMENT BETWEEN FOUR NARROW BULKHEADS. HIS EYES WANDERED CEASELESSLY OVER THE BLANK HORIZON. HE SCANNED IT EAGERLY DURING EVERY SHORT INTERVAL OF CLEAR WEATHER. IT SEEMED AS IF HE SOUGHT TO QUESTION THE VOICELESS WATERS HE LONGED TO TEAR AWAY THE VEIL OF FOG AND VAPOR THAT OBSCURED HIS VIEW. HE COULD NOT BE RESIGNED AND HIS FEATURES EXPRESSED THE BITTERNESS OF HIS GRIEF. HE WAS A MAN OF ENERGY TILL NOW HAPPY AND POWERFUL AND DEPRIVED IN A MOMENT OF POWER AND HAPPINESS. JOHN CAME UP TO HIM AND SAID YOUR LORDSHIP IS LOOKING OUT FOR LAND. WE OUGHT TO HAVE SEEN THE LIGHTS OF AUCKLAND THIRTY SIX HOURS AGO. GLENARVAN MADE NO REPLY. THE LAND IS NOT ON THAT SIDE MY LORD SAID JOHN MANGLES LOOK MORE TO STARBOARD. I AM NOT LOOKING FOR THE LAND. WHAT THEN MY LORD. MY YACHT THE DUNCAN SAID GLENARVAN HOTLY. IT MUST BE HERE ON THESE COASTS SKIMMING THESE VERY WAVES PLAYING THE VILE PART OF A PIRATE. IT IS HERE JOHN I AM CERTAIN OF IT ON THE TRACK OF VESSELS BETWEEN AUSTRALIA AND NEW ZEALAND AND I HAVE A PRESENTIMENT THAT WE SHALL FALL IN WITH HER. GOD KEEP US FROM SUCH A MEETING WHY JOHN. YOUR LORDSHIP FORGETS OUR POSITION. WE COULD NOT EVEN FLY FLY JOHN. YES MY LORD WE SHOULD TRY IN VAIN. WE SHOULD BE TAKEN DELIVERED UP TO THE MERCY OF THOSE WRETCHES AND BEN JOYCE HAS SHOWN US THAT HE DOES NOT STOP AT A CRIME. OUR LIVES WOULD BE WORTH LITTLE. WE WOULD FIGHT TO THE DEATH OF COURSE BUT AFTER THAT

+CHAPTER TWELVE STRANGELY LIBERATED. THEY WERE NOT TO LEAVE IT AGAIN TILL THE TOPS OF THE WAHITI RANGES WERE LIT WITH THE FIRST FIRES OF DAY. THEY HAD ONE NIGHT IN WHICH TO PREPARE FOR DEATH. OVERCOME AS THEY WERE WITH HORROR AND FATIGUE THEY TOOK THEIR LAST MEAL TOGETHER. WE MUST SHOW THESE SAVAGES HOW EUROPEANS CAN DIE. THE MEAL ENDED. LADY HELENA REPEATED THE EVENING PRAYER ALOUD HER COMPANIONS BARE HEADED REPEATED IT AFTER HER. WHO DOES NOT TURN HIS THOUGHTS TOWARD GOD IN THE HOUR OF DEATH. THIS DONE THE PRISONERS EMBRACED EACH OTHER. MARY GRANT AND HELENA IN A CORNER OF THE HUT LAY DOWN ON A MAT. SLEEP WHICH KEEPS ALL SORROW IN ABEYANCE SOON WEIGHED DOWN THEIR EYELIDS THEY SLEPT IN EACH OTHER'S ARMS OVERCOME BY EXHAUSTION AND PROLONGED WATCHING. THEN GLENARVAN TAKING HIS FRIENDS ASIDE SAID MY DEAR FRIENDS OUR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF THESE POOR WOMEN ARE IN GOD'S HANDS. IF IT IS DECREED THAT WE DIE TO MORROW LET US DIE BRAVELY LIKE CHRISTIAN MEN READY TO APPEAR WITHOUT TERROR BEFORE THE SUPREME JUDGE. GOD WHO READS OUR HEARTS KNOWS THAT WE HAD A NOBLE END IN VIEW. BUT DEATH HERE MEANS NOT DEATH ONLY IT MEANS TORTURE INSULT PERHAPS AND HERE ARE TWO LADIES. GLENARVAN'S VOICE FIRM TILL NOW FALTERED. JOHN YOU HAVE PROMISED MARY WHAT I PROMISED LADY HELENA WHAT IS YOUR PLAN. I BELIEVE SAID JOHN THAT IN THE SIGHT OF GOD I HAVE A RIGHT TO FULFILL THAT PROMISE. YES JOHN BUT WE ARE UNARMED. NO REPLIED JOHN SHOWING HIM A DAGGER. MY LORD WHICHEVER OF US SURVIVES THE OTHER WILL FULFILL THE WISH OF LADY HELENA AND MARY GRANT. AFTER THESE WORDS WERE SAID A PROFOUND SILENCE ENSUED. AT LAST THE MAJOR SAID MY FRIENDS KEEP THAT TO THE LAST MOMENT. I AM NOT AN ADVOCATE OF IRREMEDIABLE MEASURES. I DID NOT SPEAK FOR OURSELVES SAID GLENARVAN. BE IT AS IT MAY WE CAN FACE DEATH. HAD WE BEEN ALONE I SHOULD ERE NOW HAVE CRIED MY FRIENDS LET US MAKE AN EFFORT LET US ATTACK THESE WRETCHES. BUT WITH THESE POOR GIRLS. AT THIS MOMENT JOHN RAISED THE MAT AND COUNTED TWENTY FIVE NATIVES KEEPING GUARD ON THE WARE ATOUA. BUT THEY ALL KEPT WATCHFUL GUARD ON THE HUT CONFIDED TO THEIR CARE. IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT BETWEEN A VIGILANT JAILER AND A PRISONER WHO WISHES TO ESCAPE THE CHANCES ARE IN FAVOR OF THE PRISONER THE FACT IS THE INTEREST OF THE ONE IS KEENER THAN THAT OF THE OTHER. THE JAILER MAY FORGET THAT HE IS ON GUARD THE PRISONER NEVER FORGETS THAT HE IS GUARDED. THE CAPTIVE THINKS OFTENER OF ESCAPING THAN THE JAILER OF PREVENTING HIS FLIGHT AND HENCE WE HEAR OF FREQUENT AND WONDERFUL ESCAPES. ON ITS TWO OTHER SIDES ROSE POINTED ROCKS WHICH JUTTED OUT OVER AN ABYSS A HUNDRED FEET DEEP. ON THAT SIDE DESCENT WAS IMPOSSIBLE AND HAD IT BEEN POSSIBLE THE BOTTOM WAS SHUT IN BY THE ENORMOUS ROCK

+THE ONLY OUTLET WAS THE REGULAR DOOR OF THE WARE ATOUA AND THE MAORIES GUARDED THE PROMONTORY WHICH UNITED IT TO THE PAH LIKE A DRAWBRIDGE. ALL ESCAPE WAS THUS HOPELESS AND GLENARVAN HAVING TRIED THE WALLS FOR THE TWENTIETH TIME WAS COMPELLED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IT WAS SO. THE HOURS OF THIS NIGHT WRETCHED AS THEY WERE SLIPPED AWAY. THICK DARKNESS HAD SETTLED ON THE MOUNTAIN. NEITHER MOON NOR STARS PIERCED THE GLOOM. THE GROUP OF PRISONERS WAS LIT UP FOR A MOMENT THEY WERE ABSORBED IN THEIR LAST THOUGHTS AND A DEATHLIKE SILENCE REIGNED IN THE HUT. MC NABBS WAS AT FIRST INDIFFERENT BUT FINDING THE NOISE CONTINUE HE LISTENED THEN HIS CURIOSITY WAS AROUSED AND HE PUT HIS EAR TO THE GROUND IT SOUNDED AS IF SOMEONE WAS SCRAPING OR HOLLOWING OUT THE GROUND OUTSIDE. LISTEN SAID HE MOTIONING THEM TO STOOP. THE SCRATCHING BECAME MORE AND MORE AUDIBLE THEY COULD HEAR THE LITTLE STONES GRATE ON A HARD BODY AND ROLL AWAY. SOME ANIMAL IN HIS BURROW SAID JOHN MANGLES. GLENARVAN STRUCK HIS FOREHEAD. WHO KNOWS SAID HE IT MIGHT BE A MAN. ANIMAL OR MAN ANSWERED THE MAJOR I WILL SOON FIND OUT. WILSON AND OLBINETT JOINED THEIR COMPANIONS AND ALL UNITED TO DIG THROUGH THE WALL JOHN WITH HIS DAGGER THE OTHERS WITH STONES TAKEN FROM THE GROUND OR WITH THEIR NAILS WHILE MULRADY STRETCHED ALONG THE GROUND WATCHED THE NATIVE GUARD THROUGH A CREVICE OF THE MATTING. THE SOIL WAS LIGHT AND FRIABLE AND BELOW LAY A BED OF SILICIOUS TUFA THEREFORE EVEN WITHOUT TOOLS THE APERTURE DEEPENED QUICKLY. IT SOON BECAME EVIDENT THAT A MAN OR MEN CLINGING TO THE SIDES OF THE PAH WERE CUTTING A PASSAGE INTO ITS EXTERIOR WALL. WHAT COULD BE THE OBJECT. DID THEY KNOW OF THE EXISTENCE OF THE PRISONERS OR WAS IT SOME PRIVATE ENTERPRISE THAT LED TO THE UNDERTAKING. THE PRISONERS REDOUBLED THEIR EFFORTS. THEIR FINGERS BLED BUT STILL THEY WORKED ON AFTER HALF AN HOUR THEY HAD GONE THREE FEET DEEP THEY PERCEIVED BY THE INCREASED SHARPNESS OF THE SOUNDS THAT ONLY A THIN LAYER OF EARTH PREVENTED IMMEDIATE COMMUNICATION. SOME MINUTES MORE PASSED AND THE MAJOR WITHDREW HIS HAND FROM THE STROKE OF A SHARP BLADE HE SUPPRESSED A CRY. JOHN MANGLES INSERTING THE BLADE OF HIS PONIARD AVOIDED THE KNIFE WHICH NOW PROTRUDED ABOVE THE SOIL BUT SEIZED THE HAND THAT WIELDED IT. IT WAS THE HAND OF A WOMAN OR CHILD A EUROPEAN. ON NEITHER SIDE HAD A WORD BEEN UTTERED IT WAS EVIDENTLY THE CUE OF BOTH SIDES TO BE SILENT. BUT SOFTLY AS THE NAME WAS BREATHED MARY GRANT ALREADY AWAKENED BY THE SOUNDS IN THE HUT SLIPPED OVER TOWARD GLENARVAN AND SEIZING THE HAND ALL STAINED WITH EARTH SHE COVERED IT WITH KISSES. MY DARLING ROBERT SAID SHE NEVER DOUBTING IT IS YOU IT IS YOU. YES LITTLE SISTER SAID HE IT IS I AM HERE TO SAVE YOU ALL BUT BE VERY SILENT. BRAVE LAD REPEATED GLENARVAN. WATCH THE SAVAGES OUTSIDE SAID ROBERT. MULRADY WHOSE ATTENTION WAS DISTRACTED FOR A MOMENT BY THE APPEARANCE OF THE BOY RESUMED HIS POST.

+ONCE THERE WAS A FATHER WHO THOUGHT HE WOULD BUILD FOR HIS CHILDREN A BEAUTIFUL HOME PUTTING INTO IT EVERY THING THEY COULD NEED OR DESIRE THROUGHOUT THEIR LIVES. SO HE BUILT THE BEAUTIFUL HOUSE AND ANY ONE JUST TO LOOK AT THE OUTSIDE OF IT WOULD EXCLAIM HOW LOVELY. THE FLOORS WERE CARPETED WITH VELVET AND THE WHOLE WAS LIGHTED WITH LAMPS THAT SHONE LIKE STARS FROM ABOVE. THE SWEETEST PERFUMES FLOATED THROUGH THE AIR WHILE THOUSANDS OF BIRDS ANSWERED THE MUSIC OF FOUNTAINS WITH THEIR SONGS. AT FIRST YOU KNOW THEY WILL ONLY PLAY. WHY DID HE GIVE THAT SO ODD A SHAPE OR SO STRANGE A COVERING. AND SO THROUGH MANY QUESTIONS AND MANY EXPERIMENTS THEY LEARN AT LAST HOW TO USE THE CONTENTS OF THIS ONE STOREHOUSE. BUT DO YOU IMAGINE THAT SENSIBLE CHILDREN AFTER ONE SUCH DISCOVERY WOULD REST SATISFIED. OF COURSE THEY WOULD EXPLORE AND EXPLORE TRY EVERY PANEL AND PRESS EVERY SPRING UNTIL ONE BY ONE ALL THE CLOSETS SHOULD BE OPENED AND ALL THE TREASURES BROUGHT OUT. AND THEN HOW COULD THEY SHOW THEIR GRATITUDE TO THE DEAR FATHER WHO HAD TAKEN SUCH PAINS TO PREPARE THIS WONDERFUL HOUSE FOR THEM. THE LEAST THEY COULD DO WOULD BE TO TRY TO USE EVERY THING FOR THE PURPOSES INTENDED AND NOT TO DESTROY OR INJURE ANY OF THE PRECIOUS GIFTS PREPARED SO LOVINGLY FOR THEIR USE. IF YOU HAVE NOT PERHAPS YOU WOULD LIKE TO GO WITH ME TO EXAMINE ONE THAT WAS OPENED A GOOD MANY YEARS AGO BUT CONTAINS SUCH VALUABLE THINGS THAT THE USES OF ALL OF THEM HAVE NOT YET BEEN FOUND OUT AND THEIR BEAUTY IS JUST BEGINNING TO BE KNOWN. THE DOORWAY OF THIS STOREHOUSE LIES IN THE SIDE OF A HILL. THE ENTRANCE IS LIGHT BECAUSE IT OPENS SO WIDE BUT WE CAN SEE THAT THE FLOOR SLOPES DOWNWARD AND THE WAY LOOKS DARK AND NARROW BEFORE US. WALK DOWN THE SLOPING FOOT PATH NOW AND BE CAREFUL TO KEEP OUT OF THE WAY OF THE LITTLE CARS THAT ARE COMING AND GOING ON EACH SIDE OF YOU LOADED ON ONE SIDE AND EMPTY ON THE OTHER AND SEEMING TO RUN UP AND DOWN BY THEMSELVES. BUT YOU WILL FIND THAT THEY ARE REALLY PULLED AND PUSHED BY AN ENGINE THAT STANDS OUTSIDE THE DOORWAY AND REACHES THEM BY LONG CHAINS. AT LAST WE REACH THE FOOT OF THE SLOPE AND AS OUR EYES BECOME ACCUSTOMED TO THE FAINT LIGHT WE CAN SEE PASSAGES LEADING TO THE RIGHT AND THE LEFT AND SQUARE CHAMBERS CUT OUT IN THE SOLID HILL. SO THIS GREAT GREEN HILL UPON WHICH YOU MIGHT RUN OR PLAY IS INSIDE LIKE WHAT I THINK SOME OF THOSE LARGE ANTHILLS MUST BE TRAVERSED BY GALLERIES AND FULL OF ROOMS AND LONG PASSAGES. ALL ABOUT WE SEE MEN LIKE OUR GUIDE WORKING BY THE LIGHT OF THEIR LITTLE LAMPS. WE HEAR THE ECHOING SOUND OF THE TOOLS AND WE SEE GREAT BLOCKS AND HEAPS THAT THEY HAVE BROKEN AWAY AND LOADED INTO LITTLE CARS THAT STAND READY HERE AND THERE TO BE DRAWN BY MULES TO THE FOOT OF THE SLOPE. NOW ARE YOU CURIOUS TO KNOW WHAT THIS TREASURE IS. LOOK A LITTLE CLOSER WHILE OUR GUIDE LETS THE LIGHT OF HIS LAMP FALL UPON THE BLACK WALL AT YOUR SIDE

HERE IS SOMETHING DIFFERENT ROUNDED LIKE A NUT SHELL YOU CAN SPLIT OFF ONE SIDE AND BEHOLD THERE IS THE NUT LYING SNUGLY AS DOES ANY CHESTNUT IN ITS BUR. HOW DID IT HAPPEN AND WHAT DOES IT MEAN. FERNS AND PALMS MOSSES AND TREES AND ANIMALS ALL PERFECT ALL BEAUTIFUL AND YET ALL HIDDEN AWAY UNDER THIS HILL AND TURNED INTO SHINING BLACK COAL NOW I CAN VERY WELL REMEMBER WHEN I FIRST SAW A COAL FIRE AND HOW ODD IT LOOKED TO SEE WHAT SEEMED TO BE BURNING STONES. FOR WHEN I WAS A LITTLE GIRL WE ALWAYS HAD LOGS OF WOOD BLAZING IN AN OPEN FIREPLACE AND SO DID MANY OTHER PEOPLE AND COAL WAS JUST COMING INTO USE FOR FUEL. WHAT SHOULD WE HAVE DONE IF EVERYBODY HAD KEPT ON BURNING WOOD TO THIS DAY. THESE FORESTS WERE OF TREES DIFFERENT IN SOME WAYS FROM THOSE WE HAVE NOW GREAT FERNS AS TALL AS THIS HOUSE AND MOSSES AS HIGH AS LITTLE TREES AND PALM LEAVES OF ENORMOUS SIZE. SO HE LET THEM GROW AND RIPEN AND FALL TO THE GROUND AND THEN THE GREAT ROCKS WERE PILED ABOVE THEM TO CROWD THEM COMPACTLY TOGETHER AND THEY WERE HEATED AND HEAVILY PRESSED UNTIL AS THE AGES WENT BY THEY CHANGED SLOWLY INTO THESE HARD BLACK SHINING STONES AND BECAME BETTER FUEL THAN ANY WOOD BECAUSE THE SUBSTANCE OF WOOD WAS CONCENTRATED IN THEM. THEN THE HILLS WERE PILED UP ON TOP OF IT ALL BUT HERE AND THERE SOME EDGE OF A COAL BED WAS TILTED UP AND APPEARED ABOVE THE GROUND. AND SO AT LAST FOLLOWING THEIR QUESTIONS TO FIND THEIR WAY TO THE SECRET STORES AND MAKE AN OPEN DOORWAY AND LET THE WORLD IN. AT FIRST THEY ONLY UNDERSTOOD THIS SIMPLEST AND PLAINEST VALUE OF THE COAL. BUT BY AND BY THE WISE MEN THOUGHT ABOUT IT AND SAID TO THEMSELVES WE MUST FIND OUT WHAT USEFUL PURPOSE GOD MADE THE GAS FOR WE KNOW THAT HE DOES NOT MAKE ANY THING FOR HARM ONLY. THE THOUGHT CAME TO THEM THAT IT MIGHT BE PREPARED FROM COAL AND CONDUCTED THROUGH PIPES TO OUR HOUSES TO TAKE THE PLACE OF LAMPS OR CANDLES WHICH UNTIL THAT TIME HAD BEEN THE ONLY LIGHT. IT WAS ONLY A TROUBLE TO THE GAS MAKERS WHO HAD NO USE FOR IT AND EVEN THREW IT AWAY UNTIL SOME ONE MORE THOUGHTFUL THAN THE OTHERS FOUND OUT THAT WATER WOULD NOT PASS THROUGH IT. AND SO IT BEGAN TO BE USED TO COVER ROOFS OF BUILDINGS AND MIXED WITH SOME OTHER SUBSTANCES MADE A PAVEMENT FOR STREETS AND BEING SPREAD OVER IRON WORK IT PROTECTED IT FROM RUST. DON'T YOU SEE HOW MANY USES WE HAVE FOUND FOR THIS REFUSE COAL TAR. BESIDES THE DYES WE SHALL ALSO HAVE LEFT NAPHTHA USEFUL IN MAKING VARNISH AND VARIOUS OILS THAT ARE USED IN MORE WAYS THAN I CAN STOP TO TELL YOU OR YOU WOULD CARE NOW TO HEAR. UP CAME THE OIL SPOUTING AND RUNNING OVER GUSHING OUT AND STREAMING DOWN TO A LITTLE RIVER THAT RAN NEAR BY

+ONE WHO WRITES OF SUCH AN ERA LABOURS UNDER A TROUBLESOME DISADVANTAGE. HE DARE NOT TELL HOW EVIL PEOPLE WERE HE WILL NOT BE BELIEVED IF HE TELLS HOW GOOD THEY WERE. IN THE PRESENT CASE THAT DISADVANTAGE IS DOUBLED FOR WHILE THE SINS OF THE CHURCH HOWEVER HEINOUS WERE STILL SUCH AS ADMIT OF BEING EXPRESSED IN WORDS THE SINS OF THE HEATHEN WORLD AGAINST WHICH SHE FOUGHT WERE UTTERLY INDESCRIBABLE AND THE CHRISTIAN APOLOGIST IS THUS COMPELLED FOR THE SAKE OF DECENCY TO STATE THE CHURCH'S CASE FAR MORE WEAKLY THAN THE FACTS DESERVE. NOT BE IT EVER REMEMBERED THAT THE SLIGHTEST SUSPICION OF IMMORALITY ATTACHES EITHER TO THE HEROINE OF THIS BOOK OR TO THE LEADING PHILOSOPHERS OF HER SCHOOL FOR SEVERAL CENTURIES. HOWSOEVER BASE AND PROFLIGATE THEIR DISCIPLES OR THE MANICHEES MAY HAVE BEEN THE GREAT NEO PLATONISTS WERE AS MANES HIMSELF WAS PERSONS OF THE MOST RIGID AND ASCETIC VIRTUE. FOR A TIME HAD ARRIVED IN WHICH NO TEACHER WHO DID NOT PUT FORTH THE MOST LOFTY PRETENSIONS TO RIGHTEOUSNESS COULD EXPECT A HEARING. THAT DIVINE WORD WHO IS THE LIGHT WHO LIGHTETH EVERY MAN WHICH COMETH INTO THE WORLD HAD AWAKENED IN THE HEART OF MANKIND A MORAL CRAVING NEVER BEFORE FELT IN ANY STRENGTH EXCEPT BY A FEW ISOLATED PHILOSOPHERS OR PROPHETS. THE SPIRIT HAD BEEN POURED OUT ON ALL FLESH AND FROM ONE END OF THE EMPIRE TO THE OTHER FROM THE SLAVE IN THE MILL TO THE EMPEROR ON HIS THRONE ALL HEARTS WERE EITHER HUNGERING AND THIRSTING AFTER RIGHTEOUSNESS OR LEARNING TO DO HOMAGE TO THOSE WHO DID SO. AND HE WHO EXCITED THE CRAVING WAS ALSO FURNISHING THAT WHICH WOULD SATISFY IT AND WAS TEACHING MANKIND BY A LONG AND PAINFUL EDUCATION TO DISTINGUISH THE TRUTH FROM ITS INNUMERABLE COUNTERFEITS AND TO FIND FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE WORLD'S LIFE A GOOD NEWS NOT MERELY FOR THE SELECT FEW BUT FOR ALL MANKIND WITHOUT RESPECT OF RANK OR RACE. FOR SOMEWHAT MORE THAN FOUR HUNDRED YEARS THE ROMAN EMPIRE AND THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH BORN INTO THE WORLD ALMOST AT THE SAME MOMENT HAD BEEN DEVELOPING THEMSELVES SIDE BY SIDE AS TWO GREAT RIVAL POWERS IN DEADLY STRUGGLE FOR THE POSSESSION OF THE HUMAN RACE. THIS WAS GENERALLY A REAL BOON TO CONQUERED NATIONS BECAUSE IT SUBSTITUTED A FIXED AND REGULAR SPOLIATION FOR THE FORTUITOUS AND ARBITRARY MISERIES OF SAVAGE WARFARE BUT IT ARRAYED MEANWHILE ON THE SIDE OF THE EMPIRE THE WEALTHIER CITIZENS OF EVERY PROVINCE BY ALLOWING THEM THEIR SHARE IN THE PLUNDER OF THE LABOURING MASSES BELOW THEM. THESE IN THE COUNTRY DISTRICTS WERE UTTERLY ENSLAVED WHILE IN THE CITIES NOMINAL FREEDOM WAS OF LITTLE USE TO MASSES KEPT FROM STARVATION BY THE ALMS OF THE GOVERNMENT AND DRUGGED INTO BRUTISH GOOD HUMOUR BY A VAST SYSTEM OF PUBLIC SPECTACLES IN WHICH THE REALMS OF NATURE AND OF ART WERE RANSACKED TO GLUT THE WONDER LUST AND FEROCITY OF A DEGRADED POPULACE. AGAINST THIS VAST ORGANISATION THE CHURCH HAD BEEN FIGHTING FOR NOW FOUR HUNDRED YEARS ARMED ONLY WITH ITS OWN MIGHTY AND ALL EMBRACING MESSAGE AND WITH THE MANIFESTATION OF A SPIRIT OF PURITY AND VIRTUE OF LOVE AND SELF SACRIFICE WHICH HAD PROVED ITSELF MIGHTIER TO MELT AND WELD TOGETHER THE HEARTS OF MEN THAN ALL THE FORCE AND TERROR ALL THE MECHANICAL ORGANISATION ALL THE SENSUAL BAITS WITH WHICH THE EMPIRE HAD BEEN CONTENDING AGAINST THAT GOSPEL IN WHICH IT HAD RECOGNISED INSTINCTIVELY AND AT FIRST SIGHT ITS INTERNECINE FOE. AND NOW THE CHURCH HAD CONQUERED. THE WEAK THINGS OF THIS WORLD HAD CONFOUNDED THE STRONG. THE VERY EMPERORS HAD ARRAYED THEMSELVES ON HER SIDE

THE ATTRACTION OF THE SITUATION LAY PERHAPS IN THE VIEW WHICH IT COMMANDED OVER THE WALL OF THE MUSEUM GARDENS OF FLOWER BEDS SHRUBBERIES FOUNTAINS STATUES WALKS AND ALCOVES WHICH HAD ECHOED FOR NEARLY SEVEN HUNDRED YEARS TO THE WISDOM OF THE ALEXANDRIAN SAGES AND POETS. SCHOOL AFTER SCHOOL THEY HAD ALL WALKED AND TAUGHT AND SUNG THERE BENEATH THE SPREADING PLANES AND CHESTNUTS FIGS AND PALM TREES. THE PLACE SEEMED FRAGRANT WITH ALL THE RICHES OF GREEK THOUGHT AND SONG SINCE THE DAYS WHEN PTOLEMY PHILADELPHUS WALKED THERE WITH EUCLID AND THEOCRITUS CALLIMACHUS AND LYCOPHRON. ON THE LEFT OF THE GARDEN STRETCHED THE LOFTY EASTERN FRONT OF THE MUSEUM ITSELF WITH ITS PICTURE GALLERIES HALLS OF STATUARY DINING HALLS AND LECTURE ROOMS ONE HUGE WING CONTAINING THAT FAMOUS LIBRARY FOUNDED BY THE FATHER OF PHILADELPHUS WHICH HOLD IN THE TIME OF SENECA EVEN AFTER THE DESTRUCTION OF A GREAT PART OF IT IN CAESAR'S SIEGE FOUR HUNDRED THOUSAND MANUSCRIPTS. THERE IT TOWERED UP THE WONDER OF THE WORLD ITS WHITE ROOF BRIGHT AGAINST THE RAINLESS BLUE AND BEYOND IT AMONG THE RIDGES AND PEDIMENTS OF NOBLE BUILDINGS A BROAD GLIMPSE OF THE BRIGHT BLUE SEA. THE ROOM WAS FITTED UP IN THE PUREST GREEK STYLE NOT WITHOUT AN AFFECTATION OF ARCHAISM IN THE SEVERE FORMS AND SUBDUED HALF TINTS OF THE FRESCOES WHICH ORNAMENTED THE WALLS WITH SCENES FROM THE OLD MYTHS OF ATHENE. YET THE GENERAL EFFECT EVEN UNDER THE BLAZING SUN WHICH POURED IN THROUGH THE MOSQUITO NETS OF THE COURTYARD WINDOWS WAS ONE OF EXQUISITE COOLNESS AND CLEANLINESS AND REPOSE. THE ROOM HAD NEITHER CARPET NOR FIREPLACE AND THE ONLY MOVABLES IN IT WERE A SOFA BED A TABLE AND AN ARM CHAIR ALL OF SUCH DELICATE AND GRACEFUL FORMS AS MAY BE SEEN ON ANCIENT VASES OF A FAR EARLIER PERIOD THAN THAT WHEREOF WE WRITE. BUT MOST PROBABLY HAD ANY OF US ENTERED THAT ROOM THAT MORNING WE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN ABLE TO SPARE A LOOK EITHER FOR THE FURNITURE OR THE GENERAL EFFECT OR THE MUSEUM GARDENS OR THE SPARKLING MEDITERRANEAN BEYOND BUT WE SHOULD HAVE AGREED THAT THE ROOM WAS QUITE RICH ENOUGH FOR HUMAN EYES FOR THE SAKE OF ONE TREASURE WHICH IT POSSESSED AND BESIDE WHICH NOTHING WAS WORTH A MOMENT'S GLANCE. THERE MIGHT HAVE SEEMED TO US TOO MUCH SADNESS IN THAT CLEAR GRAY EYE TOO MUCH SELF CONSCIOUS RESTRAINT IN THOSE SHARP CURVED LIPS TOO MUCH AFFECTATION IN THE STUDIED SEVERITY OF HER POSTURE AS SHE READ COPIED AS IT SEEMED FROM SOME OLD VASE OR BAS RELIEF. BUT THE GLORIOUS GRACE AND BEAUTY OF EVERY LINE OF FACE AND FIGURE WOULD HAVE EXCUSED EVEN HIDDEN THOSE DEFECTS AND WE SHOULD HAVE ONLY RECOGNISED THE MARKED RESEMBLANCE TO THE IDEAL PORTRAITS OF ATHENE WHICH ADORNED EVERY PANEL OF THE WALLS. SHE HAS LIFTED HER EYES OFF HER MANUSCRIPT SHE IS LOOKING OUT WITH KINDLING COUNTENANCE OVER THE GARDENS OF THE MUSEUM HER RIPE CURLING GREEK LIPS SUCH AS WE NEVER SEE NOW EVEN AMONG HER OWN WIVES AND SISTERS OPEN. SHE IS TALKING TO HERSELF LISTEN. YES THE STATUES THERE ARE BROKEN. THE LIBRARIES ARE PLUNDERED. THE ALCOVES ARE SILENT THE ORACLES ARE DUMB. AND YET WHO SAYS THAT THE OLD FAITH OF HEROES AND SAGES IS DEAD. THE BEAUTIFUL CAN NEVER DIE

+SHASTA RAMBLES AND MODOC MEMORIES. ARCTIC BEAUTY AND DESOLATION WITH THEIR BLESSINGS AND DANGERS ALL MAY BE FOUND HERE TO TEST THE ENDURANCE AND SKILL OF ADVENTUROUS CLIMBERS BUT FAR BETTER THAN CLIMBING THE MOUNTAIN IS GOING AROUND ITS WARM FERTILE BASE ENJOYING ITS BOUNTIES LIKE A BEE CIRCLING AROUND A BANK OF FLOWERS. THE DISTANCE IS ABOUT A HUNDRED MILES AND WILL TAKE SOME OF THE TIME WE HEAR SO MUCH ABOUT A WEEK OR TWO BUT THE BENEFITS WILL COMPENSATE FOR ANY NUMBER OF WEEKS. PERHAPS THE PROFESSION OF DOING GOOD MAY BE FULL BUT EVERY BODY SHOULD BE KIND AT LEAST TO HIMSELF. TAKE A COURSE OF GOOD WATER AND AIR AND IN THE ETERNAL YOUTH OF NATURE YOU MAY RENEW YOUR OWN. GO QUIETLY ALONE NO HARM WILL BEFALL YOU. SOME HAVE STRANGE MORBID FEARS AS SOON AS THEY FIND THEMSELVES WITH NATURE EVEN IN THE KINDEST AND WILDEST OF HER SOLITUDES LIKE VERY SICK CHILDREN AFRAID OF THEIR MOTHER AS IF GOD WERE DEAD AND THE DEVIL WERE KING. BUT IT IS FAR BETTER TO GO AFOOT. THEN YOU ARE FREE TO MAKE WIDE WAVERINGS AND ZIGZAGS AWAY FROM THE ROADS TO VISIT THE GREAT FOUNTAIN STREAMS OF THE RIVERS THE GLACIERS ALSO AND THE WILDEST RETREATS IN THE PRIMEVAL FORESTS WHERE THE BEST PLANTS AND ANIMALS DWELL AND WHERE MANY A FLOWER BELL WILL RING AGAINST YOUR KNEES AND FRIENDLY TREES WILL REACH OUT THEIR FRONDED BRANCHES AND TOUCH YOU AS YOU PASS. ONE BLANKET WILL BE ENOUGH TO CARRY OR YOU MAY FOREGO THE PLEASURE AND BURDEN ALTOGETHER AS WOOD FOR FIRES IS EVERYWHERE ABUNDANT. ONLY A LITTLE FOOD WILL BE REQUIRED. BERRIES AND PLUMS ABOUND IN SEASON AND QUAIL AND GROUSE AND DEER THE MAGNIFICENT SHAGGY MULE DEER AS WELL AS THE COMMON SPECIES. AS YOU SWEEP AROUND SO GRAND A CENTER THE MOUNTAIN ITSELF SEEMS TO TURN DISPLAYING ITS RICHES LIKE THE REVOLVING PYRAMIDS IN JEWELERS WINDOWS. THE PLAY OF COLORS FROM THE FIRST TOUCHES OF THE MORNING SUN ON THE SUMMIT DOWN THE SNOWFIELDS AND THE ICE AND LAVA UNTIL THE FORESTS ARE AGLOW IS A NEVER ENDING DELIGHT THE ROSY LAVA AND THE FINE FLUSHINGS OF THE SNOW BEING INEFFABLY LOVELY. THUS ONE SAUNTERS ON AND ON IN THE GLORIOUS RADIANCE IN UTTER PEACE AND FORGETFULNESS OF TIME. YET STRANGE TO SAY THERE ARE DAYS EVEN HERE SOMEWHAT DULL LOOKING WHEN THE MOUNTAIN SEEMS UNCOMMUNICATIVE SENDING OUT NO APPRECIABLE INVITATION AS IF NOT AT HOME. AT SUCH TIME ITS HEIGHT SEEMS MUCH LESS AS IF CROUCHING AND WEARY IT WERE TAKING REST. BUT SHASTA IS ALWAYS AT HOME TO THOSE WHO LOVE HER AND IS EVER IN A THRILL OF ENTHUSIASTIC ACTIVITY BURNING FIRES WITHIN GRINDING GLACIERS WITHOUT AND FOUNTAINS EVER FLOWING. EVERY CRYSTAL DANCES RESPONSIVE TO THE TOUCHES OF THE SUN AND CURRENTS OF SAP IN THE GROWING CELLS OF ALL THE VEGETATION ARE EVER IN A VITAL WHIRL AND RUSH AND THOUGH MANY FEET AND WINGS ARE FOLDED HOW MANY ARE ASTIR. AND THE WANDERING WINDS HOW BUSY THEY ARE AND WHAT A BREADTH OF SOUND AND MOTION THEY MAKE GLINTING AND BUBBLING ABOUT THE CRAGS OF THE SUMMIT SIFTING THROUGH THE WOODS FEELING THEIR WAY FROM GROVE TO GROVE RUFFLING THE LOOSE HAIR ON THE SHOULDERS OF THE BEARS FANNING AND ROCKING YOUNG BIRDS IN THEIR CRADLES MAKING A TRUMPET OF EVERY COROLLA AND CARRYING THEIR FRAGRANCE AROUND THE WORLD

+THE GORGE THROUGH WHICH THE GLACIER IS DRAINED IS RAW LOOKING DEEP AND NARROW AND INDESCRIBABLY JAGGED. THE WALLS IN MANY PLACES OVERHANG IN OTHERS THEY ARE BEVELED LOOSE AND SHIFTING WHERE THE CHANNEL HAS BEEN ERODED BY CINDERS ASHES STRATA OF FIRM LAVAS AND GLACIAL DRIFT TELLING OF MANY A CHANGE FROM FROST TO FIRE AND THEIR ATTENDANT FLOODS OF MUD AND WATER. MOST OF THE DRAINAGE OF THE GLACIER VANISHES AT ONCE IN THE POROUS ROCKS TO REAPPEAR IN SPRINGS IN THE DISTANT VALLEY AND IT IS ONLY IN TIME OF FLOOD THAT THE CHANNEL CARRIES MUCH WATER THEN THERE ARE SEVERAL FINE FALLS IN THE GORGE SIX HUNDRED FEET OR MORE IN HEIGHT. SNOW LIES IN IT THE YEAR ROUND AT AN ELEVATION OF EIGHT THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED FEET AND IN SHELTERED SPOTS A THOUSAND FEET LOWER. TRACING THIS WILD CHANGING CHANNEL GORGE GULLY OR CANYON THE SECTIONS WILL SHOW MOUNT SHASTA AS A HUGE PALIMPSEST CONTAINING THE RECORDS LAYER UPON LAYER OF STRANGELY CONTRASTED EVENTS IN ITS FIERY ICY HISTORY. BUT LOOK WELL TO YOUR FOOTING FOR THE WAY WILL TEST THE SKILL OF THE MOST CAUTIOUS MOUNTAINEERS. REGAINING THE LOW GROUND AT THE BASE OF THE MOUNTAIN AND HOLDING ON IN YOUR GRAND ORBIT YOU PASS THROUGH A BELT OF JUNIPER WOODS CALLED THE CEDARS TO SHEEP ROCK AT THE FOOT OF THE SHASTA PASS. HERE YOU STRIKE THE OLD EMIGRANT ROAD WHICH LEADS OVER THE LOW DIVIDE TO THE EASTERN SLOPES OF THE MOUNTAIN. SHEEP ROCK IS ABOUT TWENTY MILES FROM SISSON'S AND IS ONE OF THE PRINCIPAL WINTER PASTURE GROUNDS OF THE WILD SHEEP FROM WHICH IT TAKES ITS NAME. IT IS A MASS OF LAVA PRESENTING TO THE GRAY SAGE PLAIN OF SHASTA VALLEY A BOLD CRAGGY FRONT TWO THOUSAND FEET HIGH. ITS SUMMIT LIES AT AN ELEVATION OF FIVE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED FEET ABOVE THE SEA AND HAS SEVERAL SQUARE MILES OF COMPARATIVELY LEVEL SURFACE WHERE BUNCHGRASS GROWS AND THE SNOW DOES NOT LIE DEEP THUS ALLOWING THE HARDY SHEEP TO PICK UP A LIVING THROUGH THE WINTER MONTHS WHEN DEEP SNOWS HAVE DRIVEN THEM DOWN FROM THE LOFTY RIDGES OF SHASTA. FROM HERE IT MIGHT BE WELL TO LEAVE THE IMMEDIATE BASE OF THE MOUNTAIN FOR A FEW DAYS AND VISIT THE LAVA BEDS MADE FAMOUS BY THE MODOC WAR. THEY ARE A PORTION OF A FLOW OF DENSE BLACK VESICULAR LAVA DIPPING NORTHEASTWARD AT A LOW ANGLE BUT LITTLE CHANGED AS YET BY THE WEATHER AND ABOUT AS DESTITUTE OF SOIL AS A GLACIAL PAVEMENT. THE SURFACE THOUGH SMOOTH IN A GENERAL WAY AS SEEN FROM A DISTANCE IS DOTTED WITH HILLOCKS AND ROUGH CRATER LIKE PITS AND TRAVERSED BY A NETWORK OF YAWNING FISSURES FORMING A COMBINATION OF TOPOGRAPHICAL CONDITIONS OF VERY STRIKING CHARACTER. THE WAY LIES BY MOUNT BREMER OVER STRETCHES OF GRAY SAGE PLAINS INTERRUPTED BY ROUGH LAVA SLOPES TIMBERED WITH JUNIPER AND YELLOW PINE AND WITH HERE AND THERE A GREEN MEADOW AND A STREAM. THIS IS A FAMOUS GAME REGION AND YOU WILL BE LIKELY TO MEET SMALL BANDS OF ANTELOPE MULE DEER AND WILD SHEEP. MOUNT BREMER IS THE MOST NOTED STRONGHOLD OF THE SHEEP IN THE WHOLE SHASTA REGION. LARGE FLOCKS DWELL HERE FROM YEAR TO YEAR WINTER AND SUMMER DESCENDING OCCASIONALLY INTO THE ADJACENT SAGE PLAINS AND LAVA BEDS TO FEED BUT EVER READY TO TAKE REFUGE IN THE JAGGED CRAGS OF THEIR MOUNTAIN AT EVERY ALARM.

+OTHER CASTLES SCARCELY LESS STRONG ARE CONNECTED WITH THIS BY SUBTERRANEAN PASSAGES KNOWN ONLY TO THE INDIANS WHILE THE UNNATURAL BLACKNESS OF THE ROCK OUT OF WHICH NATURE HAS CONSTRUCTED THESE DEFENSES AND THE WEIRD INHUMAN PHYSIOGNOMY OF THE WHOLE REGION ARE WELL CALCULATED TO INSPIRE TERROR. DEADLY WAS THE TASK OF STORMING SUCH A PLACE. THEY WERE FAMILIAR WITH BYWAYS BOTH OVER AND UNDER GROUND AND COULD AT ANY TIME SINK SUDDENLY OUT OF SIGHT LIKE SQUIRRELS AMONG THE LOOSE BOULDERS. TO JUDGE FROM THE FEW I HAVE SEEN MODOCS ARE NOT VERY AMIABLE LOOKING PEOPLE AT BEST. CAPTAIN JACK'S CAVE IS ONE OF THE MANY SOMBER CELLS OF THE CASTLE. IT MEASURES TWENTY FIVE OR THIRTY FEET IN DIAMETER AT THE ENTRANCE AND EXTENDS BUT A SHORT DISTANCE IN A HORIZONTAL DIRECTION. THE FLOOR IS LITTERED WITH THE BONES OF THE ANIMALS SLAUGHTERED FOR FOOD DURING THE WAR. SOME EAGER ARCHAEOLOGIST MAY HEREAFTER DISCOVER THIS CABIN AND STARTLE HIS WORLD BY ANNOUNCING ANOTHER OF THE STONE AGE CAVES. THE SUN SHINES FREELY INTO ITS MOUTH AND GRACEFUL BUNCHES OF GRASS AND ERIOGONUMS AND SAGE GROW ABOUT IT DOING WHAT THEY CAN TOWARD ITS REDEMPTION FROM DEGRADING ASSOCIATIONS AND MAKING IT BEAUTIFUL. WHERE THE LAVA MEETS THE LAKE THERE ARE SOME FINE CURVING BAYS BEAUTIFULLY EMBROIDERED WITH RUSHES AND POLYGONUMS A FAVORITE RESORT OF WATERFOWL. ON OUR RETURN KEEPING CLOSE ALONG SHORE WE CAUSED A NOISY PLASHING AND BEATING OF WINGS AMONG CRANES AND GEESE. THE DUCKS LESS WARY KEPT THEIR PLACES MERELY SWIMMING IN AND OUT THROUGH OPENINGS IN THE RUSHES RIPPLING THE GLASSY WATER AND RAISING SPANGLES IN THEIR WAKE. THE COUNTENANCE OF THE LAVA BEDS BECAME LESS AND LESS FORBIDDING. TUFTS OF PALE GRASSES RELIEVED ON THE JET ROCKS LOOKED LIKE ORNAMENTS ON A MANTEL THICK FURRED MATS OF EMERALD MOSSES APPEARED IN DAMP SPOTS NEXT THE SHORE AND I NOTICED ONE TUFT OF SMALL FERNS. FROM YEAR TO YEAR IN THE KINDLY WEATHER THE BEDS ARE THUS GATHERING BEAUTY BEAUTY FOR ASHES. RETURNING TO SHEEP ROCK AND FOLLOWING THE OLD EMIGRANT ROAD ONE IS SOON BACK AGAIN BENEATH THE SNOWS AND SHADOWS OF SHASTA AND THE ASH CREEK AND MC CLOUD GLACIERS COME INTO VIEW ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN. THEY ARE BROAD RUGGED CREVASSED CLOUDLIKE MASSES OF DOWN GRINDING ICE POURING FORTH STREAMS OF MUDDY WATER AS MEASURES OF THE WORK THEY ARE DOING IN SCULPTURING THE ROCKS BENEATH THEM VERY UNLIKE THE LONG MAJESTIC GLACIERS OF ALASKA THAT RIVERLIKE GO WINDING DOWN THE VALLEYS THROUGH THE FORESTS TO THE SEA. THESE WITH A FEW OTHERS AS YET NAMELESS ARE LINGERING REMNANTS OF ONCE GREAT GLACIERS THAT OCCUPIED THE CANYONS NOW TAKEN BY THE RIVERS AND IN A FEW CENTURIES WILL UNDER PRESENT CONDITIONS VANISH ALTOGETHER. THEY SELDOM SINK OUT OF SIGHT SAVE HERE AND THERE IN THE MORAINES OR GLACIERS OR EARLY IN THE SEASON BENEATH THE BANKS AND BRIDGES OF SNOW SOON TO ISSUE AGAIN. BUT IN THE NORTH HALF LADEN WITH RENT AND POROUS LAVA SMALL TRIBUTARY STREAMS ARE RARE AND THE RIVERS FLOWING FOR A TIME BENEATH THE SKY OF ROCK AT LENGTH BURST FORTH INTO THE LIGHT IN GENEROUS VOLUME FROM SEAMS AND CAVERNS FILTERED COOL AND SPARKLING AS IF THEIR BONDAGE IN DARKNESS SAFE FROM THE VICISSITUDES OF THE WEATHER IN THEIR YOUTH WERE ONLY A BLESSING.

+CHRISTIE'S RETURN WAS A VERY HAPPY ONE AND COULD NOT WELL BE OTHERWISE WITH A MOTHER SISTER AND LOVER TO WELCOME HER BACK. HER MEETING WITH LETTY WAS INDESCRIBABLY TENDER AND THE DAYS THAT FOLLOWED WERE PRETTY EQUALLY DIVIDED BETWEEN HER AND HER BROTHER IN NURSING THE ONE AND LOVING THE OTHER. THERE WAS NO CLOUD NOW IN CHRISTIE'S SKY AND ALL THE WORLD SEEMED IN BLOOM. BUT EVEN WHILE SHE ENJOYED EVERY HOUR OF LIFE AND BEGRUDGED THE TIME GIVEN TO SLEEP SHE FELT AS IF THE DREAM WAS TOO BEAUTIFUL TO LAST AND OFTEN SAID. SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN SUCH PERFECT HAPPINESS IS NOT POSSIBLE IN THIS WORLD. THEN LET US MAKE THE MOST OF IT DAVID WOULD REPLY WISELY BENT ON GETTING HIS HONEY WHILE HE COULD AND NOT BORROWING TROUBLE FOR THE MORROW. SO CHRISTIE TURNED A DEAF EAR TO HER PROPHETIC SOUL AND GAVE HERSELF UP TO THE BLISSFUL HOLIDAY THAT HAD COME AT LAST. EVEN WHILE MARCH WINDS WERE HOWLING OUTSIDE SHE BLISSFULLY POKED IN THE DIRT WITH DAVID IN THE GREEN HOUSE PUT UP THE CURLY LOCK AS OFTEN AS SHE LIKED AND TOLD HIM SHE LOVED HIM A DOZEN TIMES A DAY NOT IN WORDS BUT IN SILENT WAYS THAT TOUCHED HIM TO THE HEART AND MADE HIS FUTURE LOOK SO BRIGHT HE HARDLY DARED BELIEVE IN IT. CHRISTIE OFTEN STOPPED TO WATCH AND WONDER IF THE BLITHE YOUNG MAN WHO WENT WHISTLING AND SINGING ABOUT THE HOUSE OFTEN STOPPING TO KISS SOMEBODY TO JOKE OR TO EXCLAIM WITH A BEAMING FACE LIKE A CHILD AT A PARTY ISN'T EVERY THING BEAUTIFUL. COULD BE THE SOBER STEADY DAVID WHO USED TO PLOD TO AND FRO WITH HIS SHOULDERS A LITTLE BENT AND THE ABSENT LOOK IN HIS EYES THAT TOLD OF THOUGHTS ABOVE OR BEYOND THE DAILY TASK. DAVY YOU ARE A HUMBUG SHE SAID ONE DAY WHEN THEY WERE MAKING UP A BRIDAL ORDER IN THE GREENHOUSE. I TOLD YOU SO BUT YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE IT HE ANSWERED USING LONG STEMMED ROSE BUDS WITH AS PRODIGAL A HAND AS IF THE WEDDING WAS TO BE HIS OWN. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO MARRY A QUIET STUDIOUS STEADY GOING MAN AND HERE I FIND MYSELF ENGAGED TO A ROMANTIC YOUTH WHO FLIES ABOUT IN THE MOST UNDIGNIFIED MANNER EMBRACES PEOPLE BEHIND DOORS SINGS OPERA AIRS VERY MUCH OUT OF TUNE BY THE WAY AND CONDUCTS HIMSELF MORE LIKE AN INFATUATED CLAUDE MELNOTTE THAN A RESPECTABLE GENTLEMAN ON THE AWFUL VERGE OF MATRIMONY. NOTHING CAN SURPRISE ME NOW I'M PREPARED FOR ANY THING EVEN THE SIGHT OF MY QUAKERISH LOVER DANCING A JIG. COME AND TAKE A TURN IT WILL DO YOU GOOD AND TO CHRISTIE'S UTTER AMAZEMENT DAVID CAUGHT HER ROUND THE WAIST AND WALTZED HER DOWN THE BOARDED WALK WITH A SPEED AND SKILL THAT CAUSED LESS HAVOC AMONG THE FLOWER POTS THAN ONE WOULD IMAGINE AND SEEMED TO DELIGHT THE PLANTS WHO RUSTLED AND NODDED AS IF APPLAUDING THE DANCE OF THE FINEST DOUBLE FLOWER THAT HAD EVER BLOSSOMED IN THEIR MIDST. I CAN'T HELP IT CHRISTIE HE SAID WHEN HE HAD LANDED HER BREATHLESS AND LAUGHING AT THE OTHER END. I FEEL LIKE A BOY OUT OF SCHOOL OR RATHER A MAN OUT OF PRISON AND MUST ENJOY MY LIBERTY IN SOME WAY. I'M NOT A TALKER YOU KNOW AND AS THE LAWS OF GRAVITATION FORBID MY SOARING ALOFT ANYWHERE I CAN ONLY EXPRESS MY JOYFULLY UPLIFTED STATE OF MIND BY PRANCING AS YOU CALL IT. NEVER MIND DIGNITY LET'S BE HAPPY AND BY AND BY I'LL SOBER DOWN. I DON'T WANT YOU TO I LOVE TO SEE YOU SO YOUNG AND HAPPY ONLY YOU ARE NOT THE OLD DAVID AND I'VE GOT TO GET ACQUAINTED WITH THE NEW ONE. I HOPE YOU'LL LIKE HIM BETTER THAN THE FROST BITTEN OLD DAVID YOU FIRST KNEW AND WERE KIND ENOUGH TO LOVE. MOTHER SAYS I'VE GONE BACK TO THE TIME BEFORE WE LOST LETTY AND I SOMETIMES FEEL AS IF I HAD. IN THAT CASE YOU WILL FIND ME A PROUD IMPETUOUS AMBITIOUS FELLOW CHRISTIE AND HOW WILL THAT SUIT. EXCELLENTLY I LIKE PRIDE OF YOUR SORT IMPETUOSITY BECOMES YOU FOR YOU HAVE LEARNED TO CONTROL IT IF NEED BE AND THE AMBITION IS BEST OF ALL. I ALWAYS WONDERED AT YOUR WANT OF IT AND LONGED TO STIR YOU UP FOR YOU DID NOT SEEM THE SORT OF MAN TO BE CONTENTED WITH MERE CREATURE COMFORTS WHEN THERE ARE SO MANY FINE THINGS MEN MAY DO. WHAT SHALL YOU CHOOSE DAVY. I SHALL WAIT FOR TIME TO SHOW. THE SAP IS ALL ASTIR IN ME AND I'M READY FOR MY CHANCE

+BUT THE LITTLE QUAKER CAP WENT DOWN ON THE BROAD SHOULDER AND THE ONLY ANSWER HE HEARD WAS A SOB THAT STIRRED THE SOFT FOLDS OVER THE TENDER OLD HEART THAT CLUNG SO CLOSELY TO THE SON WHO HAD LIVED FOR HER SO LONG. WHAT HAPPENED IN THE TWILIGHT NO ONE EVER KNEW BUT DAVID RECEIVED PROMOTION FOR BRAVERY IN A HARDER BATTLE THAN ANY HE WAS GOING TO AND FROM HIS MOTHER'S BREAST A DECORATION MORE PRECIOUS TO HIM THAN THE CROSS OF THE LEGION OF HONOR FROM A ROYAL HAND. WHEN MISTER POWER PRESENTLY CAME IN FOLLOWED BY THE OTHERS THEY FOUND THEIR SOLDIER STANDING VERY ERECT IN HIS OLD PLACE ON THE RUG WITH THE FIRELIGHT GLEAMING ON HIS BRIGHT BUTTONS AND BRAN STARING AT HIM WITH A PERPLEXED ASPECT FOR THE UNIFORM SHORN HAIR TRIMMED BEARD AND A CERTAIN LOFTY CARRIAGE OF THE HEAD SO CHANGED HIS MASTER THAT THE SAGACIOUS BEAST WAS DISTURBED. LETTY SMILED AT HIM APPROVINGLY THEN WENT TO COMFORT HER MOTHER WHO COULD NOT RECOVER HER TRANQUILLITY SO SOON. BUT CHRISTIE STOOD ALOOF LOOKING AT HER LOVER WITH SOMETHING MORE THAN ADMIRATION IN THE FACE THAT KINDLED BEAUTIFULLY AS SHE EXCLAIMED. O DAVID YOU ARE SPLENDID. ONCE I WAS SO BLIND I THOUGHT YOU PLAIN BUT NOW MY BOY IN BLUE IS THE NOBLEST LOOKING MAN I EVER SAW. YES MISTER POWER I'VE FOUND MY HERO AT LAST. HERE HE IS MY KNIGHT WITHOUT REPROACH OR FEAR GOING OUT TO TAKE HIS PART IN THE GRANDEST BATTLE EVER FOUGHT. THEN HAVING POURED OUT THE LOVE AND PRIDE AND CONFIDENCE THAT ENRICHED HER SACRIFICE SHE BROKE DOWN AND CLUNG TO HIM WEEPING AS SO MANY CLUNG AND WEPT IN THOSE HARD DAYS WHEN MEN AND WOMEN GAVE THEIR DEAREST AND THOSE WHO PRAYED AND WAITED SUFFERED ALMOST AS MUCH AS THOSE WHO FOUGHT AND DIED. WHEN THE DEED WAS ONCE DONE IT WAS ASTONISHING WHAT SATISFACTION THEY ALL TOOK IN IT HOW SOON THEY GOT ACCUSTOMED TO THE CHANGE AND WHAT PRIDE THEY FELT IN OUR SOLDIER. THE LOYAL FRENZY FELL UPON THE THREE QUIET WOMEN AND THEY COULD NOT DO TOO MUCH FOR THEIR COUNTRY. MISSUS STERLING CUT UP HER TREASURED OLD LINEN WITHOUT A MURMUR LETTY MADE COMFORT BAGS BY THE DOZEN PUT UP JELLY AND SEWED ON BLUE JACKETS WITH TIRELESS INDUSTRY WHILE CHRISTIE PROCLAIMED THAT IF SHE HAD TWENTY LOVERS SHE WOULD SEND THEM ALL AND THEN MADE PREPARATIONS ENOUGH TO NURSE THE ENTIRE PARTY. IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN MANY KNAPSACKS TO HOLD ALL THE GIFTS SHOWERED UPON HIM BY HIS FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS. HE ACCEPTED ALL THAT CAME AND FURNISHED FORTH THOSE OF HIS COMPANY WHO WERE LESS FAVORED. AMONG THESE WAS ELISHA WILKINS AND HOW HE GOT THERE SHOULD BE TOLD. ELISHA HAD NOT THE SLIGHTEST INTENTION OF ENLISTING BUT MISSUS WILKINS WAS A LOYAL SOUL AND COULD NOT REST TILL SHE HAD SENT A SUBSTITUTE SINCE SHE COULD NOT GO HERSELF. FINDING THAT LISHA SHOWED LITTLE ENTHUSIASM ON THE SUBJECT SHE TRIED TO ROUSE HIM BY PATRIOTIC APPEALS OF VARIOUS SORTS. SHE READ STIRRING ACCOUNTS OF BATTLES CAREFULLY OMITTING THE DEAD AND WOUNDED SHE TURNED OUT BABY AND ALL IF POSSIBLE TO CHEER EVERY REGIMENT THAT LEFT AND WAS NEVER TIRED OF TELLING WASH HOW SHE WISHED SHE COULD ADD TEN YEARS TO HIS AGE AND SEND HIM OFF TO FIGHT FOR HIS COUNTRY LIKE A MAN. VERY WELL SAID MISSUS WILKINS RESOLUTELY TO HERSELF EF I CAN'T MAKE NO IMPRESSION ON HIS SOUL I WILL ON HIS STOMMICK AND SEE HOW THAT'LL WORK. WHICH THREAT SHE CARRIED OUT WITH SUCH SKILL AND FORCE THAT LISHA WAS EFFECTUALLY WAKED UP FOR HE WAS PARTIAL TO GOOD VITTLES AND CYNTHY WAS A CAPITAL COOK. POOR RATIONS DID NOT SUIT HIM AND HE DEMANDED WHY HIS FAVORITE DISHES WERE NOT FORTHCOMING. WE CAN'T AFFORD NO NICE VITTLES NOW WHEN OUR MEN ARE SUFFERIN SO. I SHOULD BE ASHAMED TO COOK EM AND EXPECT TO CHOKE TRYIN TO EAT EM. EVERY ONE IS SACRIFICIN SOMETHIN AND WE MUSTN'T BE SLACK IN DOIN OUR PART THE LORD KNOWS IT'S PRECIOUS LITTLE AND THERE WON'T BE NO STUFFIN IN THIS HOUSE FOR A CONSID'ABLE SPELL. EF I COULD SAVE UP ENOUGH TO SEND A MAN TO DO MY SHARE OF THE FIGHTIN I SHOULD BE PROUD TO DO IT

+HE HAD ENLISTED IN DAVID'S REGIMENT WHICH WAS A GREAT COMFORT TO HIS WIFE FOR THOUGH HER STOUT HEART NEVER FAILED HER IT GREW VERY HEAVY AT TIMES AND WHEN LISHA WAS GONE SHE OFTEN DROPPED A PRIVATE TEAR OVER THE BROKEN PIPE THAT ALWAYS LAY IN ITS OLD PLACE AND VENTED HER EMOTIONS BY SENDING BASKETS OF NOURISHMENT TO PRIVATE WILKINS WHICH CAUSED THAT BANDY LEGGED WARRIOR TO BE MUCH ENVIED AND CHERISHED BY HIS MATES. I'M GLAD I DONE IT FOR IT WILL MAKE A MAN OF LISHA AND IF I'VE SENT HIM TO HIS DEATH GOD KNOWS HE'LL BE FITTER TO DIE THAN IF HE STAYED HERE IDLIN HIS LIFE AWAY. THEN THE GOOD SOUL OPENLY SHOULDERED THE BURDEN SHE HAD BORNE SO LONG IN SECRET AND BRAVELY TRUDGED ON ALONE. ANOTHER GREAT BATTLE SCREAMED THE EXCITED NEWS BOYS IN THE STREETS. ANOTHER GREAT BATTLE READ LETTY IN THE COTTAGE PARLOR. THE WOMEN DROPPED THEIR WORK TO LOOK AND LISTEN FOR HIS VISITS WERE FEW AND SHORT AND EVERY INSTANT WAS PRECIOUS. WHEN THE FIRST GREETINGS WERE OVER DAVID STOOD SILENT AN INSTANT AND A SUDDEN MIST CAME OVER HIS EYES AS HE GLANCED FROM ONE BELOVED FACE TO ANOTHER THEN HE THREW BACK HIS HEAD WITH THE OLD IMPATIENT GESTURE SQUARED HIS SHOULDERS AND SAID IN A LOUD CHEERFUL VOICE WITH A SUSPICIOUS UNDERTONE OF EMOTION IN IT HOWEVER. MY PRECIOUS PEOPLE I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO TELL YOU ARE YOU READY. THEY KNEW WHAT IT WAS WITHOUT A WORD MISSUS STERLING CLASPED HER HANDS AND BOWED HER HEAD. LETTY TURNED PALE AND DROPPED HER WORK BUT CHRISTIE'S EYES KINDLED AS SHE ANSWERED WITH A SALUTE READY MY GENERAL. WE ARE ORDERED OFF AT ONCE AND GO AT FOUR THIS AFTERNOON I'VE GOT A THREE HOURS LEAVE TO SAY GOOD BY IN. NOW LET'S BE BRAVE AND ENJOY EVERY MINUTE OF IT. WE WILL WHAT CAN I DO FOR YOU DAVY ASKED CHRISTIE WONDERFULLY SUPPORTED BY THE THOUGHT THAT SHE WAS GOING TOO. KEEP YOUR PROMISE DEAR HE ANSWERED WHILE THE WARLIKE EXPRESSION CHANGED TO ONE OF INFINITE TENDERNESS WHAT PROMISE. THIS AND HE HELD OUT HIS HAND WITH A LITTLE PAPER IN IT. SHE SAW IT WAS A MARRIAGE LICENSE AND ON IT LAY A WEDDING RING. SHE DID NOT HESITATE AN INSTANT BUT LAID HER OWN HAND IN HIS AND ANSWERED WITH HER HEART IN HER FACE. I'LL KEEP IT DAVID I KNEW YOU WOULD. AS A MARRIED WOMAN YOU WILL GET ON BETTER AS MY WIFE YOU WILL BE ALLOWED TO COME TO ME IF I NEED YOU AND AS MY HE STOPPED THERE FOR HE COULD NOT ADD AS MY WIDOW YOU WILL HAVE MY PENSION TO SUPPORT YOU. SHE UNDERSTOOD PUT BOTH ARMS ABOUT HIS NECK AS IF TO KEEP HIM SAFE AND WHISPERED FERVENTLY. NOTHING CAN PART US ANY MORE NOT EVEN DEATH FOR LOVE LIKE OURS WILL LAST FOR EVER. THEN YOU ARE QUITE WILLING TO TRY THE THIRD GREAT EXPERIMENT. GLAD AND PROUD TO DO IT. WITH NO DOUBT NO FEAR TO MAR YOUR CONSENT. NOT ONE DAVID THAT'S TRUE LOVE CHRISTIE. THEN THEY STOOD QUITE STILL FOR A TIME AND IN THE SILENCE THE TWO HEARTS TALKED TOGETHER IN THE SWEET LANGUAGE NO TONGUE CAN UTTER. PRESENTLY DAVID SAID REGRETFULLY. I MEANT IT SHOULD BE SO DIFFERENT I ALWAYS PLANNED THAT WE'D BE MARRIED SOME BRIGHT SUMMER DAY WITH MANY FRIENDS ABOUT US THEN TAKE A HAPPY LITTLE JOURNEY SOMEWHERE TOGETHER AND COME BACK TO SETTLE DOWN AT HOME IN THE DEAR OLD WAY. NOW IT'S ALL SO HURRIED SORROWFUL AND STRANGE. A DULL NOVEMBER DAY NO FRIENDS BUT MISTER POWER WHO WILL BE HERE SOON NO JOURNEY BUT MY MARCH TO WASHINGTON ALONE AND NO HAPPY COMING HOME TOGETHER IN THIS WORLD PERHAPS. HAVE NO FEAR FOR ME I FEEL AS IF I COULD BEAR ANY THING JUST NOW FOR I'VE GOT INTO A HEROIC MOOD AND I MEAN TO KEEP SO AS LONG AS I CAN. I'VE ALWAYS WANTED TO LIVE IN STIRRING TIMES TO HAVE A PART IN GREAT DEEDS TO SACRIFICE AND SUFFER SOMETHING FOR A PRINCIPLE OR A PERSON AND NOW I HAVE MY WISH. I LIKE IT DAVID IT'S A GRAND TIME TO LIVE A SPLENDID CHANCE TO DO AND SUFFER AND I WANT TO BE IN IT HEART AND SOUL AND EARN A LITTLE OF THE GLORY OR THE MARTYRDOM THAT WILL COME IN THE END

+SURELY I SHALL IF I GIVE YOU AND MYSELF TO THE CAUSE AND I DO IT GLADLY THOUGH I KNOW THAT MY HEART HAS GOT TO ACHE AS IT NEVER HAS ACHED YET WHEN MY COURAGE FAILS AS IT WILL BY AND BY AND MY SELFISH SOUL COUNTS THE COST OF MY OFFERING AFTER THE EXCITEMENT IS OVER. HELP ME TO BE BRAVE AND STRONG DAVID DON'T LET ME COMPLAIN OR REGRET BUT SHOW ME WHAT LIES BEYOND AND TEACH ME TO BELIEVE THAT SIMPLY DOING THE RIGHT IS REWARD AND HAPPINESS ENOUGH. CHRISTIE WAS LIFTED OUT OF HERSELF FOR THE MOMENT AND LOOKED INSPIRED BY THE HIGH MOOD WHICH WAS BUT THE BEGINNING OF A NOBLER LIFE FOR HER. DAVID CAUGHT THE EXALTATION AND GAVE NO FURTHER THOUGHT TO ANY THING BUT THE DUTY OF THE HOUR FINDING HIMSELF STRONGER AND BRAVER FOR THAT LONG LOOK INTO THE ILLUMINATED FACE OF THE WOMAN HE LOVED. I'LL TRY WAS ALL HIS ANSWER TO HER APPEAL THEN PROVED THAT HE MEANT IT BY ADDING WITH HIS LIPS AGAINST HER CHEEK I MUST GO TO MOTHER AND LETTY WE LEAVE THEM BEHIND AND THEY MUST BE COMFORTED. HE WENT AND CHRISTIE VANISHED TO MAKE READY FOR HER WEDDING CONSCIOUS IN SPITE OF HER EXALTED STATE OF MIND THAT EVERY THING WAS VERY HURRIED SAD AND STRANGE AND VERY DIFFERENT FROM THE HAPPY DAY SHE HAD SO OFTEN PLANNED. DAVID SENDS YOU THESE DEAR. CAN I HELP IN ANY WAY ASKED LETTY COMING WITH A CLUSTER OF LOVELY WHITE ROSES IN HER HAND AND A WORLD OF AFFECTION IN HER EYES. I THOUGHT HE'D GIVE ME VIOLETS AND A SHADOW CAME OVER CHRISTIE'S FACE. BUT THEY ARE MOURNING FLOWERS YOU KNOW NOT TO ME. THE ROSES ARE FOR THEY REMIND ME OF POOR HELEN AND THE FIRST WORK I DID WITH DAVID WAS ARRANGING FLOWERS LIKE THESE FOR A DEAD BABY'S LITTLE COFFIN. MY DEAREST CHRISTIE DON'T BE SUPERSTITIOUS ALL BRIDES WEAR ROSES AND DAVY THOUGHT YOU'D LIKE THEM SAID LETTY TROUBLED AT HER WORDS. THEN I'LL WEAR THEM AND I WON'T HAVE FANCIES IF I CAN HELP IT. BUT I THINK FEW BRIDES DRESS WITH A BRAVER HAPPIER HEART THAN MINE THOUGH I DO CHOOSE A SOBER WEDDING GOWN ANSWERED CHRISTIE SMILING AGAIN AS SHE TOOK FROM A HALF PACKED TRUNK HER NEW HOSPITAL SUIT OF SOFT GRAY WOOLLEN STUFF. NO I WILL BE MARRIED IN MY UNIFORM AS DAVID IS SHE ANSWERED WITH A LOOK LETTY LONG REMEMBERED. MISTER POWER HAS COME SHE SAID SOFTLY A FEW MINUTES LATER WITH AN ANXIOUS GLANCE AT THE CLOCK. GO DEAR I'LL COME DIRECTLY. BUT FIRST AND CHRISTIE HELD HER FRIEND CLOSE A MOMENT KISSED HER TENDERLY AND WHISPERED IN A BROKEN VOICE REMEMBER I DON'T TAKE HIS HEART FROM YOU I ONLY SHARE IT WITH MY SISTER AND MY MOTHER. I'M GLAD TO GIVE HIM TO YOU CHRISTIE FOR NOW I FEEL AS IF I HAD PARTLY PAID THE GREAT DEBT I'VE OWED SO LONG ANSWERED LETTY THROUGH HER TEARS. NO BRIDAL WHITE DEAR SAID DAVID GOING TO HER. ONLY THIS AND SHE TOUCHED THE FLOWERS ADDING WITH HER HAND ON THE BLUE COAT SLEEVE THAT EMBRACED HER I WANT TO CONSECRATE MY UNIFORM AS YOU DO YOURS BY BEING MARRIED IN IT. ISN'T IT FITTER FOR A SOLDIER'S WIFE THAN LACE AND SILK AT SUCH A TIME AS THIS. MUCH FITTER I LIKE IT AND I FIND YOU BEAUTIFUL MY CHRISTIE WHISPERED DAVID AS SHE PUT ONE OF HER ROSES IN HIS BUTTON HOLE THEN I'M SATISFIED. MISTER POWER IS WAITING ARE YOU READY LOVE QUITE READY. THEN THEY WERE MARRIED WITH LETTY AND HER MOTHER STANDING BESIDE THEM BENNET AND HIS WIFE DIMLY VISIBLE IN THE DOOR WAY AND POOR BRAN AT HIS MASTER'S FEET LOOKING UP WITH WISTFUL EYES HALF HUMAN IN THE ANXIOUS AFFECTION THEY EXPRESSED. CHRISTIE NEVER FORGOT THAT SERVICE SO SIMPLE SWEET AND SOLEMN NOR THE LOOK HER HUSBAND GAVE HER AT THE END WHEN HE KISSED HER ON LIPS AND FOREHEAD SAYING FERVENTLY GOD BLESS MY WIFE. ONE HOUR MORE IS ALL YOU HAVE SO MAKE THE MOST OF IT DEARLY BELOVED. YOU YOUNG FOLKS TAKE A WEDDING TRIP TO THE GREEN HOUSE WHILE WE SEE HOW WELL WE CAN GET ON WITHOUT YOU. THEN THEY WERE MARRIED

+EVERY ELEVATION OF THE TYPE MAN HAS HITHERTO BEEN THE WORK OF AN ARISTOCRATIC SOCIETY AND SO IT WILL ALWAYS BE A SOCIETY BELIEVING IN A LONG SCALE OF GRADATIONS OF RANK AND DIFFERENCES OF WORTH AMONG HUMAN BEINGS AND REQUIRING SLAVERY IN SOME FORM OR OTHER. TO BE SURE ONE MUST NOT RESIGN ONESELF TO ANY HUMANITARIAN ILLUSIONS ABOUT THE HISTORY OF THE ORIGIN OF AN ARISTOCRATIC SOCIETY THAT IS TO SAY OF THE PRELIMINARY CONDITION FOR THE ELEVATION OF THE TYPE MAN THE TRUTH IS HARD. AS SOON HOWEVER AS ONE WISHED TO TAKE THIS PRINCIPLE MORE GENERALLY AND IF POSSIBLE EVEN AS THE FUNDAMENTAL PRINCIPLE OF SOCIETY IT WOULD IMMEDIATELY DISCLOSE WHAT IT REALLY IS NAMELY A WILL TO THE DENIAL OF LIFE A PRINCIPLE OF DISSOLUTION AND DECAY. ON NO POINT HOWEVER IS THE ORDINARY CONSCIOUSNESS OF EUROPEANS MORE UNWILLING TO BE CORRECTED THAN ON THIS MATTER PEOPLE NOW RAVE EVERYWHERE EVEN UNDER THE GUISE OF SCIENCE ABOUT COMING CONDITIONS OF SOCIETY IN WHICH THE EXPLOITING CHARACTER IS TO BE ABSENT THAT SOUNDS TO MY EARS AS IF THEY PROMISED TO INVENT A MODE OF LIFE WHICH SHOULD REFRAIN FROM ALL ORGANIC FUNCTIONS. THERE IS MASTER MORALITY AND SLAVE MORALITY I WOULD AT ONCE ADD HOWEVER THAT IN ALL HIGHER AND MIXED CIVILIZATIONS THERE ARE ALSO ATTEMPTS AT THE RECONCILIATION OF THE TWO MORALITIES BUT ONE FINDS STILL OFTENER THE CONFUSION AND MUTUAL MISUNDERSTANDING OF THEM INDEED SOMETIMES THEIR CLOSE JUXTAPOSITION EVEN IN THE SAME MAN WITHIN ONE SOUL. THE DISTINCTIONS OF MORAL VALUES HAVE EITHER ORIGINATED IN A RULING CASTE PLEASANTLY CONSCIOUS OF BEING DIFFERENT FROM THE RULED OR AMONG THE RULED CLASS THE SLAVES AND DEPENDENTS OF ALL SORTS. THE NOBLE TYPE OF MAN SEPARATES FROM HIMSELF THE BEINGS IN WHOM THE OPPOSITE OF THIS EXALTED PROUD DISPOSITION DISPLAYS ITSELF HE DESPISES THEM. LET IT AT ONCE BE NOTED THAT IN THIS FIRST KIND OF MORALITY THE ANTITHESIS GOOD AND BAD MEANS PRACTICALLY THE SAME AS NOBLE AND DESPICABLE THE ANTITHESIS GOOD AND EVIL IS OF A DIFFERENT ORIGIN. THE COWARDLY THE TIMID THE INSIGNIFICANT AND THOSE THINKING MERELY OF NARROW UTILITY ARE DESPISED MOREOVER ALSO THE DISTRUSTFUL WITH THEIR CONSTRAINED GLANCES THE SELF ABASING THE DOG LIKE KIND OF MEN WHO LET THEMSELVES BE ABUSED THE MENDICANT FLATTERERS AND ABOVE ALL THE LIARS IT IS A FUNDAMENTAL BELIEF OF ALL ARISTOCRATS THAT THE COMMON PEOPLE ARE UNTRUTHFUL. WE TRUTHFUL ONES THE NOBILITY IN ANCIENT GREECE CALLED THEMSELVES. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT EVERYWHERE THE DESIGNATIONS OF MORAL VALUE WERE AT FIRST APPLIED TO MEN AND WERE ONLY DERIVATIVELY AND AT A LATER PERIOD APPLIED TO ACTIONS IT IS A GROSS MISTAKE THEREFORE WHEN HISTORIANS OF MORALS START WITH QUESTIONS LIKE WHY HAVE SYMPATHETIC ACTIONS BEEN PRAISED. THE NOBLE TYPE OF MAN REGARDS HIMSELF AS A DETERMINER OF VALUES HE DOES NOT REQUIRE TO BE APPROVED OF HE PASSES THE JUDGMENT WHAT IS INJURIOUS TO ME IS INJURIOUS IN ITSELF HE KNOWS THAT IT IS HE HIMSELF ONLY WHO CONFERS HONOUR ON THINGS HE IS A CREATOR OF VALUES. HE HONOURS WHATEVER HE RECOGNIZES IN HIMSELF SUCH MORALITY EQUALS SELF GLORIFICATION. THE NOBLE MAN HONOURS IN HIMSELF THE POWERFUL ONE HIM ALSO WHO HAS POWER OVER HIMSELF WHO KNOWS HOW TO SPEAK AND HOW TO KEEP SILENCE WHO TAKES PLEASURE IN SUBJECTING HIMSELF TO SEVERITY AND HARDNESS AND HAS REVERENCE FOR ALL THAT IS SEVERE AND HARD. WOTAN PLACED A HARD HEART IN MY BREAST SAYS AN OLD SCANDINAVIAN SAGA IT IS THUS RIGHTLY EXPRESSED FROM THE SOUL OF A PROUD VIKING

+SUCH A TYPE OF MAN IS EVEN PROUD OF NOT BEING MADE FOR SYMPATHY THE HERO OF THE SAGA THEREFORE ADDS WARNINGLY HE WHO HAS NOT A HARD HEART WHEN YOUNG WILL NEVER HAVE ONE. IT IS THE POWERFUL WHO KNOW HOW TO HONOUR IT IS THEIR ART THEIR DOMAIN FOR INVENTION. PROBABLY A PESSIMISTIC SUSPICION WITH REGARD TO THE ENTIRE SITUATION OF MAN WILL FIND EXPRESSION PERHAPS A CONDEMNATION OF MAN TOGETHER WITH HIS SITUATION. THE SLAVE HAS AN UNFAVOURABLE EYE FOR THE VIRTUES OF THE POWERFUL HE HAS A SKEPTICISM AND DISTRUST A REFINEMENT OF DISTRUST OF EVERYTHING GOOD THAT IS THERE HONOURED HE WOULD FAIN PERSUADE HIMSELF THAT THE VERY HAPPINESS THERE IS NOT GENUINE. SLAVE MORALITY IS ESSENTIALLY THE MORALITY OF UTILITY. HERE IS THE SEAT OF THE ORIGIN OF THE FAMOUS ANTITHESIS GOOD AND EVIL POWER AND DANGEROUSNESS ARE ASSUMED TO RESIDE IN THE EVIL A CERTAIN DREADFULNESS SUBTLETY AND STRENGTH WHICH DO NOT ADMIT OF BEING DESPISED. ACCORDING TO SLAVE MORALITY THEREFORE THE EVIL MAN AROUSES FEAR ACCORDING TO MASTER MORALITY IT IS PRECISELY THE GOOD MAN WHO AROUSES FEAR AND SEEKS TO AROUSE IT WHILE THE BAD MAN IS REGARDED AS THE DESPICABLE BEING. THE CONTRAST ATTAINS ITS MAXIMUM WHEN IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LOGICAL CONSEQUENCES OF SLAVE MORALITY A SHADE OF DEPRECIATION IT MAY BE SLIGHT AND WELL INTENTIONED AT LAST ATTACHES ITSELF TO THE GOOD MAN OF THIS MORALITY BECAUSE ACCORDING TO THE SERVILE MODE OF THOUGHT THE GOOD MAN MUST IN ANY CASE BE THE SAFE MAN HE IS GOOD NATURED EASILY DECEIVED PERHAPS A LITTLE STUPID UN BONHOMME. EVERYWHERE THAT SLAVE MORALITY GAINS THE ASCENDANCY LANGUAGE SHOWS A TENDENCY TO APPROXIMATE THE SIGNIFICATIONS OF THE WORDS GOOD AND STUPID. THIS SEEMS TO HIM ON THE ONE HAND SUCH BAD TASTE AND SO SELF DISRESPECTFUL AND ON THE OTHER HAND SO GROTESQUELY UNREASONABLE THAT HE WOULD LIKE TO CONSIDER VANITY AN EXCEPTION AND IS DOUBTFUL ABOUT IT IN MOST CASES WHEN IT IS SPOKEN OF. HE WILL SAY FOR INSTANCE I MAY BE MISTAKEN ABOUT MY VALUE AND ON THE OTHER HAND MAY NEVERTHELESS DEMAND THAT MY VALUE SHOULD BE ACKNOWLEDGED BY OTHERS PRECISELY AS I RATE IT THAT HOWEVER IS NOT VANITY BUT SELF CONCEIT OR IN MOST CASES THAT WHICH IS CALLED HUMILITY AND ALSO MODESTY. OR HE WILL EVEN SAY FOR MANY REASONS I CAN DELIGHT IN THE GOOD OPINION OF OTHERS PERHAPS BECAUSE I LOVE AND HONOUR THEM AND REJOICE IN ALL THEIR JOYS PERHAPS ALSO BECAUSE THEIR GOOD OPINION ENDORSES AND STRENGTHENS MY BELIEF IN MY OWN GOOD OPINION PERHAPS BECAUSE THE GOOD OPINION OF OTHERS EVEN IN CASES WHERE I DO NOT SHARE IT IS USEFUL TO ME OR GIVES PROMISE OF USEFULNESS ALL THIS HOWEVER IS NOT VANITY. IN FACT CONFORMABLY TO THE SLOW RISE OF THE DEMOCRATIC SOCIAL ORDER AND ITS CAUSE THE BLENDING OF THE BLOOD OF MASTERS AND SLAVES THE ORIGINALLY NOBLE AND RARE IMPULSE OF THE MASTERS TO ASSIGN A VALUE TO THEMSELVES AND TO THINK WELL OF THEMSELVES WILL NOW BE MORE AND MORE ENCOURAGED AND EXTENDED BUT IT HAS AT ALL TIMES AN OLDER AMPLER AND MORE RADICALLY INGRAINED PROPENSITY OPPOSED TO IT AND IN THE PHENOMENON OF VANITY THIS OLDER PROPENSITY OVERMASTERS THE YOUNGER. NOW LOOK AT AN ARISTOCRATIC COMMONWEALTH SAY AN ANCIENT GREEK POLIS OR VENICE AS A VOLUNTARY OR INVOLUNTARY CONTRIVANCE FOR THE PURPOSE OF REARING HUMAN BEINGS THERE ARE THERE MEN BESIDE ONE ANOTHER THROWN UPON THEIR OWN RESOURCES WHO WANT TO MAKE THEIR SPECIES PREVAIL CHIEFLY BECAUSE THEY MUST PREVAIL OR ELSE RUN THE TERRIBLE DANGER OF BEING EXTERMINATED

THEY DISCOVER THESE SHARP ONLOOKERS AND LOAFERS THAT THE END IS QUICKLY APPROACHING THAT EVERYTHING AROUND THEM DECAYS AND PRODUCES DECAY THAT NOTHING WILL ENDURE UNTIL THE DAY AFTER TOMORROW EXCEPT ONE SPECIES OF MAN THE INCURABLY MEDIOCRE. THIS IS THE PROBLEM OF RACE.

+THE NOBLE SOUL ACCEPTS THE FACT OF HIS EGOISM WITHOUT QUESTION AND ALSO WITHOUT CONSCIOUSNESS OF HARSHNESS CONSTRAINT OR ARBITRARINESS THEREIN BUT RATHER AS SOMETHING THAT MAY HAVE ITS BASIS IN THE PRIMARY LAW OF THINGS IF HE SOUGHT A DESIGNATION FOR IT HE WOULD SAY IT IS JUSTICE ITSELF. THE NOBLE SOUL GIVES AS HE TAKES PROMPTED BY THE PASSIONATE AND SENSITIVE INSTINCT OF REQUITAL WHICH IS AT THE ROOT OF HIS NATURE. ON THIS ACCOUNT THE PEOPLE OF ONE NATION UNDERSTAND ONE ANOTHER BETTER THAN THOSE BELONGING TO DIFFERENT NATIONS EVEN WHEN THEY USE THE SAME LANGUAGE OR RATHER WHEN PEOPLE HAVE LIVED LONG TOGETHER UNDER SIMILAR CONDITIONS OF CLIMATE SOIL DANGER REQUIREMENT TOIL THERE ORIGINATES THEREFROM AN ENTITY THAT UNDERSTANDS ITSELF NAMELY A NATION. THE GREATER THE DANGER THE GREATER IS THE NEED OF AGREEING QUICKLY AND READILY ABOUT WHAT IS NECESSARY NOT TO MISUNDERSTAND ONE ANOTHER IN DANGER THAT IS WHAT CANNOT AT ALL BE DISPENSED WITH IN INTERCOURSE. ALSO IN ALL LOVES AND FRIENDSHIPS ONE HAS THE EXPERIENCE THAT NOTHING OF THE KIND CONTINUES WHEN THE DISCOVERY HAS BEEN MADE THAT IN USING THE SAME WORDS ONE OF THE TWO PARTIES HAS FEELINGS THOUGHTS INTUITIONS WISHES OR FEARS DIFFERENT FROM THOSE OF THE OTHER. WHICHEVER GROUPS OF SENSATIONS WITHIN A SOUL AWAKEN MOST READILY BEGIN TO SPEAK AND GIVE THE WORD OF COMMAND THESE DECIDE AS TO THE GENERAL ORDER OF RANK OF ITS VALUES AND DETERMINE ULTIMATELY ITS LIST OF DESIRABLE THINGS. A MAN'S ESTIMATES OF VALUE BETRAY SOMETHING OF THE STRUCTURE OF HIS SOUL AND WHEREIN IT SEES ITS CONDITIONS OF LIFE ITS INTRINSIC NEEDS. PROFOUND SUFFERING MAKES NOBLE IT SEPARATES ONE OF THE MOST REFINED FORMS OF DISGUISE IS EPICURISM ALONG WITH A CERTAIN OSTENTATIOUS BOLDNESS OF TASTE WHICH TAKES SUFFERING LIGHTLY AND PUTS ITSELF ON THE DEFENSIVE AGAINST ALL THAT IS SORROWFUL AND PROFOUND. THEY ARE GAY MEN WHO MAKE USE OF GAIETY BECAUSE THEY ARE MISUNDERSTOOD ON ACCOUNT OF IT THEY WISH TO BE MISUNDERSTOOD. THE HIGHEST INSTINCT FOR PURITY PLACES HIM WHO IS AFFECTED WITH IT IN THE MOST EXTRAORDINARY AND DANGEROUS ISOLATION AS A SAINT FOR IT IS JUST HOLINESS THE HIGHEST SPIRITUALIZATION OF THE INSTINCT IN QUESTION. OCCASIONALLY TOO THE WAKING CALL COMES TOO LATE THE CHANCE WHICH GIVES PERMISSION TO TAKE ACTION WHEN THEIR BEST YOUTH AND STRENGTH FOR ACTION HAVE BEEN USED UP IN SITTING STILL AND HOW MANY A ONE JUST AS HE SPRANG UP HAS FOUND WITH HORROR THAT HIS LIMBS ARE BENUMBED AND HIS SPIRITS ARE NOW TOO HEAVY. REST THEE HERE THIS PLACE HAS HOSPITALITY FOR EVERY ONE REFRESH THYSELF. AND WHOEVER THOU ART WHAT IS IT THAT NOW PLEASES THEE. WHAT WILL SERVE TO REFRESH THEE.

+IT WAS ABOUT NOON WHEN CAPTAIN WAVERLEY ENTERED THE STRAGGLING VILLAGE OR RATHER HAMLET OF TULLY VEOLAN CLOSE TO WHICH WAS SITUATED THE MANSION OF THE PROPRIETOR. THE HOUSES SEEMED MISERABLE IN THE EXTREME ESPECIALLY TO AN EYE ACCUSTOMED TO THE SMILING NEATNESS OF ENGLISH COTTAGES. OCCASIONALLY INDEED WHEN SUCH A CONSUMMATION SEEMED INEVITABLE A WATCHFUL OLD GRANDAM WITH HER CLOSE CAP DISTAFF AND SPINDLE RUSHED LIKE A SIBYL IN FRENZY OUT OF ONE OF THESE MISERABLE CELLS DASHED INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE PATH AND SNATCHING UP HER OWN CHARGE FROM AMONG THE SUNBURNT LOITERERS SALUTED HIM WITH A SOUND CUFF AND TRANSPORTED HIM BACK TO HIS DUNGEON THE LITTLE WHITE HEADED VARLET SCREAMING ALL THE WHILE FROM THE VERY TOP OF HIS LUNGS A SHRILLY TREBLE TO THE GROWLING REMONSTRANCES OF THE ENRAGED MATRON. THE EVIL AND REMEDY SUCH AS IT IS STILL EXIST BUT THIS IS REMOTE FROM OUR PRESENT PURPOSE AND IS ONLY THROWN OUT FOR CONSIDERATION OF THE COLLECTORS UNDER MISTER DENT'S DOG BILL. AS WAVERLEY MOVED ON HERE AND THERE AN OLD MAN BENT AS MUCH BY TOIL AS YEARS HIS EYES BLEARED WITH AGE AND SMOKE TOTTERED TO THE DOOR OF HIS HUT TO GAZE ON THE DRESS OF THE STRANGER AND THE FORM AND MOTIONS OF THE HORSES AND THEN ASSEMBLED WITH HIS NEIGHBOURS IN A LITTLE GROUP AT THE SMITHY TO DISCUSS THE PROBABILITIES OF WHENCE THE STRANGER CAME AND WHERE HE MIGHT BE GOING. THREE OR FOUR VILLAGE GIRLS RETURNING FROM THE WELL OR BROOK WITH PITCHERS AND PAILS UPON THEIR HEADS FORMED MORE PLEASING OBJECTS AND WITH THEIR THIN SHORT GOWNS AND SINGLE PETTICOATS BARE ARMS LEGS AND FEET UNCOVERED HEADS AND BRAIDED HAIR SOMEWHAT RESEMBLED ITALIAN FORMS OF LANDSCAPE. NOR COULD A LOVER OF THE PICTURESQUE HAVE CHALLENGED EITHER THE ELEGANCE OF THEIR COSTUME OR THE SYMMETRY OF THEIR SHAPE ALTHOUGH TO SAY THE TRUTH A MERE ENGLISHMAN IN SEARCH OF THE COMFORTABLE A WORD PECULIAR TO HIS NATIVE TONGUE MIGHT HAVE WISHED THE CLOTHES LESS SCANTY THE FEET AND LEGS SOMEWHAT PROTECTED FROM THE WEATHER THE HEAD AND COMPLEXION SHROUDED FROM THE SUN OR PERHAPS MIGHT EVEN HAVE THOUGHT THE WHOLE PERSON AND DRESS CONSIDERABLY IMPROVED BY A PLENTIFUL APPLICATION OF SPRING WATER WITH A QUANTUM SUFFICIT OF SOAP. THE WHOLE SCENE WAS DEPRESSING FOR IT ARGUED AT THE FIRST GLANCE AT LEAST A STAGNATION OF INDUSTRY AND PERHAPS OF INTELLECT. EVEN CURIOSITY THE BUSIEST PASSION OF THE IDLE SEEMED OF A LISTLESS CAST IN THE VILLAGE OF TULLY VEOLAN THE CURS AFORESAID ALONE SHOWED ANY PART OF ITS ACTIVITY WITH THE VILLAGERS IT WAS PASSIVE. THEY STOOD AND GAZED AT THE HANDSOME YOUNG OFFICER AND HIS ATTENDANT BUT WITHOUT ANY OF THOSE QUICK MOTIONS AND EAGER LOOKS THAT INDICATE THE EARNESTNESS WITH WHICH THOSE WHO LIVE IN MONOTONOUS EASE AT HOME LOOK OUT FOR AMUSEMENT ABROAD. YET THE PHYSIOGNOMY OF THE PEOPLE WHEN MORE CLOSELY EXAMINED WAS FAR FROM EXHIBITING THE INDIFFERENCE OF STUPIDITY THEIR FEATURES WERE ROUGH BUT REMARKABLY INTELLIGENT GRAVE BUT THE VERY REVERSE OF STUPID AND FROM AMONG THE YOUNG WOMEN AN ARTIST MIGHT HAVE CHOSEN MORE THAN ONE MODEL WHOSE FEATURES AND FORM RESEMBLED THOSE OF MINERVA. THE CHILDREN ALSO WHOSE SKINS WERE BURNT BLACK AND WHOSE HAIR WAS BLEACHED WHITE BY THE INFLUENCE OF THE SUN HAD A LOOK AND MANNER OF LIFE AND INTEREST. THE BROKEN GROUND ON WHICH THE VILLAGE WAS BUILT HAD NEVER BEEN LEVELLED SO THAT THESE INCLOSURES PRESENTED DECLIVITIES OF EVERY DEGREE HERE RISING LIKE TERRACES THERE SINKING LIKE TAN PITS

+THE DRY STONE WALLS WHICH FENCED OR SEEMED TO FENCE FOR THEY WERE SORELY BREACHED THESE HANGING GARDENS OF TULLY VEOLAN WERE INTERSECTED BY A NARROW LANE LEADING TO THE COMMON FIELD WHERE THE JOINT LABOUR OF THE VILLAGERS CULTIVATED ALTERNATE RIDGES AND PATCHES OF RYE OATS BARLEY AND PEASE EACH OF SUCH MINUTE EXTENT THAT AT A LITTLE DISTANCE THE UNPROFITABLE VARIETY OF THE SURFACE RESEMBLED A TAILOR'S BOOK OF PATTERNS. IN A FEW FAVOURED INSTANCES THERE APPEARED BEHIND THE COTTAGES A MISERABLE WIGWAM COMPILED OF EARTH LOOSE STONES AND TURF WHERE THE WEALTHY MIGHT PERHAPS SHELTER A STARVED COW OR SORELY GALLED HORSE. BUT ALMOST EVERY HUT WAS FENCED IN FRONT BY A HUGE BLACK STACK OF TURF ON ONE SIDE OF THE DOOR WHILE ON THE OTHER THE FAMILY DUNGHILL ASCENDED IN NOBLE EMULATION. THIS AVENUE WAS STRAIGHT AND OF MODERATE LENGTH RUNNING BETWEEN A DOUBLE ROW OF VERY ANCIENT HORSE CHESTNUTS PLANTED ALTERNATELY WITH SYCAMORES WHICH ROSE TO SUCH HUGE HEIGHT AND NOURISHED SO LUXURIANTLY THAT THEIR BOUGHS COMPLETELY OVER ARCHED THE BROAD ROAD BENEATH. BEYOND THESE VENERABLE RANKS AND RUNNING PARALLEL TO THEM WERE TWO HIGH WALLS OF APPARENTLY THE LIKE ANTIQUITY OVERGROWN WITH IVY HONEYSUCKLE AND OTHER CLIMBING PLANTS. THIS NETHER PORTAL LIKE THE FORMER OPENED IN FRONT OF A WALL ORNAMENTED WITH SOME RUDE SCULPTURE WITH BATTLEMENTS ON THE TOP OVER WHICH WERE SEEN HALF HIDDEN BY THE TREES OF THE AVENUE THE HIGH STEEP ROOFS AND NARROW GABLES OF THE MANSION WITH LINES INDENTED INTO STEPS AND CORNERS DECORATED WITH SMALL TURRETS ONE OF THE FOLDING LEAVES OF THE LOWER GATE WAS OPEN AND AS THE SUN SHONE FULL INTO THE COURT BEHIND A LONG LINE OF BRILLIANCY WAS FLUNG UPON THE APERTURE UP THE DARK AND GLOOMY AVENUE. IT WAS ONE OF THOSE EFFECTS WHICH A PAINTER LOVES TO REPRESENT AND MINGLED WELL WITH THE STRUGGLING LIGHT WHICH FOUND ITS WAY BETWEEN THE BOUGHS OF THE SHADY ARCH THAT VAULTED THE BROAD GREEN ALLEY. THE SOLITUDE AND REPOSE OF THE WHOLE SCENE SEEMED ALMOST MONASTIC AND WAVERLEY WHO HAD GIVEN HIS HORSE TO HIS SERVANT ON ENTERING THE FIRST GATE WALKED SLOWLY DOWN THE AVENUE ENJOYING THE GRATEFUL AND COOLING SHADE AND SO MUCH PLEASED WITH THE PLACID IDEAS OF REST AND SECLUSION EXCITED BY THIS CONFINED AND QUIET SCENE THAT HE FORGOT THE MISERY AND DIRT OF THE HAMLET HE HAD LEFT BEHIND HIM. THE OPENING INTO THE PAVED COURT YARD CORRESPONDED WITH THE REST OF THE SCENE. THE HOUSE WHICH SEEMED TO CONSIST OF TWO OR THREE HIGH NARROW AND STEEP ROOFED BUILDINGS PROJECTING FROM EACH OTHER AT RIGHT ANGLES FORMED ONE SIDE OF THE INCLOSURE. IT HAD BEEN BUILT AT A PERIOD WHEN CASTLES WERE NO LONGER NECESSARY AND WHEN THE SCOTTISH ARCHITECTS HAD NOT YET ACQUIRED THE ART OF DESIGNING A DOMESTIC RESIDENCE. THE WINDOWS WERE NUMBERLESS BUT VERY SMALL THE ROOF HAD SOME NONDESCRIPT KIND OF PROJECTIONS CALLED BARTIZANS AND DISPLAYED AT EACH FREQUENT ANGLE A SMALL TURRET RATHER RESEMBLING A PEPPER BOX THAN A GOTHIC WATCHTOWER. NEITHER DID THE FRONT INDICATE ABSOLUTE SECURITY FROM DANGER. THERE WERE LOOP HOLES FOR MUSKETRY AND IRON STANCHIONS ON THE LOWER WINDOWS PROBABLY TO REPEL ANY ROVING BAND OF GYPSIES OR RESIST A PREDATORY VISIT FROM THE CATERANS OF THE NEIGHBOURING HIGHLANDS. STABLES AND OTHER OFFICES OCCUPIED ANOTHER SIDE OF THE SQUARE. ABOVE THESE DUNGEON LOOKING STABLES WERE GRANARIES CALLED GIRNELS AND OTHER OFFICES TO WHICH THERE WAS ACCESS BY OUTSIDE STAIRS OF HEAVY MASONRY. TWO BATTLEMENTED WALLS ONE OF WHICH FACED THE AVENUE AND THE OTHER DIVIDED THE COURT FROM THE GARDEN COMPLETED THE INCLOSURE. THIS WORK OF ART WAS THE WONDER OF THE COUNTRY TEN MILES ROUND.

+CHAPTER THIRTY THREE A CONFIDANT. WAVERLEY AWOKE IN THE MORNING FROM TROUBLED DREAMS AND UNREFRESHING SLUMBERS TO A FULL CONSCIOUSNESS OF THE HORRORS OF HIS SITUATION. HOW IT MIGHT TERMINATE HE KNEW NOT. HE MIGHT BE DELIVERED UP TO MILITARY LAW WHICH IN THE MIDST OF CIVIL WAR WAS NOT LIKELY TO BE SCRUPULOUS IN THE CHOICE OF ITS VICTIMS OR THE QUALITY OF THE EVIDENCE. NOR DID HE FEEL MUCH MORE COMFORTABLE AT THE THOUGHTS OF A TRIAL BEFORE A SCOTTISH COURT OF JUSTICE WHERE HE KNEW THE LAWS AND FORMS DIFFERED IN MANY RESPECTS FROM THOSE OF ENGLAND AND HAD BEEN TAUGHT TO BELIEVE HOWEVER ERRONEOUSLY THAT THE LIBERTY AND RIGHTS OF THE SUBJECT WERE LESS CAREFULLY PROTECTED. A SENTIMENT OF BITTERNESS ROSE IN HIS MIND AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT WHICH HE CONSIDERED AS THE CAUSE OF HIS EMBARRASSMENT AND PERIL AND HE CURSED INTERNALLY HIS SCRUPULOUS REJECTION OF MAC IVOR'S INVITATION TO ACCOMPANY HIM TO THE FIELD. HOW TRUE HAS YOUR PROPHECY PROVED AND HOW SPEEDY HOW VERY SPEEDY HAS BEEN ITS ACCOMPLISHMENT. WHILE EDWARD WAS RUMINATING ON THESE PAINFUL SUBJECTS OF CONTEMPLATION AND VERY NATURALLY THOUGH NOT QUITE SO JUSTLY BESTOWING UPON THE REIGNING DYNASTY THAT BLAME WHICH WAS DUE TO CHANCE OR IN PART AT LEAST TO HIS OWN UNREFLECTING CONDUCT MISTER MORTON AVAILED HIMSELF OF MAJOR MELVILLE'S PERMISSION TO PAY HIM AN EARLY VISIT. WAVERLEY'S FIRST IMPULSE WAS TO INTIMATE A DESIRE THAT HE MIGHT NOT BE DISTURBED WITH QUESTIONS OR CONVERSATION BUT HE SUPPRESSED IT UPON OBSERVING THE BENEVOLENT AND REVEREND APPEARANCE OF THE CLERGYMAN WHO HAD RESCUED HIM FROM THE IMMEDIATE VIOLENCE OF THE VILLAGERS. MISTER MORTON REPLIED THAT FAR FROM MAKING ANY CLAIM UPON HIS GOOD OPINION HIS ONLY WISH AND THE SOLE PURPOSE OF HIS VISIT WAS TO FIND OUT THE MEANS OF DESERVING IT. HE PAUSED AND THEN PROCEEDED I DO NOT INTRUDE MYSELF ON YOUR CONFIDENCE MISTER WAVERLEY FOR THE PURPOSE OF LEARNING ANY CIRCUMSTANCES THE KNOWLEDGE OF WHICH CAN BE PREJUDICIAL EITHER TO YOURSELF OR TO OTHERS BUT I OWN MY EARNEST WISH IS THAT YOU WOULD INTRUST ME WITH ANY PARTICULARS WHICH COULD LEAD TO YOUR EXCULPATION. YOU ARE SIR I PRESUME A PRESBYTERIAN CLERGYMAN MISTER MORTON BOWED. EVIL TO HIM THAT THINKS OTHERWISE SAID MISTER MORTON OR WHO HOLDS CHURCH GOVERNMENT AND CEREMONIES AS THE EXCLUSIVE GAGE OF CHRISTIAN FAITH OR MORAL VIRTUE. I KNOW INDEED THAT I AM INNOCENT BUT I HARDLY SEE HOW I CAN HOPE TO PROVE MYSELF SO. IT IS FOR THAT VERY REASON MISTER WAVERLEY SAID THE CLERGYMAN THAT I VENTURE TO SOLICIT YOUR CONFIDENCE. MY KNOWLEDGE OF INDIVIDUALS IN THIS COUNTRY IS PRETTY GENERAL AND CAN UPON OCCASION BE EXTENDED. WAVERLEY AFTER A FEW MINUTES REFLECTION WAS CONVINCED THAT HIS REPOSING CONFIDENCE IN MISTER MORTON SO FAR AS HE HIMSELF WAS CONCERNED COULD HURT NEITHER MISTER BRADWARDINE NOR FERGUS MAC IVOR BOTH OF WHOM HAD OPENLY ASSUMED ARMS AGAINST THE GOVERNMENT AND THAT IT MIGHT POSSIBLY IF THE PROFESSIONS OF HIS NEW FRIEND CORRESPONDED IN SINCERITY WITH THE EARNESTNESS OF HIS EXPRESSION BE OF SOME SERVICE TO HIMSELF. MISTER MORTON SEEMED PARTICULARLY STRUCK WITH THE ACCOUNT OF WAVERLEY'S VISIT TO DONALD BEAN LEAN. I AM GLAD HE SAID YOU DID NOT MENTION THIS CIRCUMSTANCE TO THE MAJOR. IT IS CAPABLE OF GREAT MISCONSTRUCTION ON THE PART OF THOSE WHO DO NOT CONSIDER THE POWER OF CURIOSITY AND THE INFLUENCE OF ROMANCE AS MOTIVES OF YOUTHFUL CONDUCT. WHEN I WAS A YOUNG MAN LIKE YOU MISTER WAVERLEY ANY SUCH HAIR BRAINED EXPEDITION I BEG YOUR PARDON FOR THE EXPRESSION WOULD HAVE HAD INEXPRESSIBLE CHARMS FOR ME. HE CERTAINLY POSSESSES TALENTS BEYOND THE RUDE SPHERE IN WHICH HE MOVES AND BEING NEITHER DESTITUTE OF AMBITION NOR ENCUMBERED WITH SCRUPLES HE WILL PROBABLY ATTEMPT BY EVERY MEANS TO DISTINGUISH HIMSELF DURING THE PERIOD OF THESE UNHAPPY COMMOTIONS

+MISTER MORTON THEN MADE A CAREFUL MEMORANDUM OF THE VARIOUS PARTICULARS OF WAVERLEY'S INTERVIEW WITH DONALD BEAN LEAN AND THE OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES WHICH HE HAD COMMUNICATED. EDWARD NOW INQUIRED IF MISTER MORTON KNEW WHAT WAS LIKELY TO BE HIS DESTINATION. STIRLING CASTLE REPLIED HIS FRIEND AND SO FAR I AM WELL PLEASED FOR YOUR SAKE FOR THE GOVERNOR IS A MAN OF HONOUR AND HUMANITY. BUT I AM MORE DOUBTFUL OF YOUR TREATMENT UPON THE ROAD MAJOR MELVILLE IS INVOLUNTARILY OBLIGED TO INTRUST THE CUSTODY OF YOUR PERSON TO ANOTHER. I AM GLAD OF IT ANSWERED WAVERLEY. I DETEST THAT COLD BLOODED CALCULATING SCOTCH MAGISTRATE. I HOPE HE AND I SHALL NEVER MEET MORE. HE HAD NEITHER SYMPATHY WITH MY INNOCENCE NOR WITH MY WRETCHEDNESS AND THE PETRIFYING ACCURACY WITH WHICH HE ATTENDED TO EVERY FORM OF CIVILITY WHILE HE TORTURED ME BY HIS QUESTIONS HIS SUSPICIONS AND HIS INFERENCES WAS AS TORMENTING AS THE RACKS OF THE INQUISITION. DO NOT VINDICATE HIM MY DEAR SIR FOR THAT I CANNOT BEAR WITH PATIENCE TELL ME RATHER WHO IS TO HAVE THE CHARGE OF SO IMPORTANT A STATE PRISONER AS I AM. I BELIEVE A PERSON CALLED GILFILLAN ONE OF THE SECT WHO ARE TERMED CAMERONIANS. I NEVER HEARD OF THEM BEFORE. THEY CLAIM SAID THE CLERGYMAN TO REPRESENT THE MORE STRICT AND SEVERE PRESBYTERIANS WHO IN CHARLES SECOND'S AND JAMES SECOND'S DAYS REFUSED TO PROFIT BY THE TOLERATION OR INDULGENCE AS IT WAS CALLED WHICH WAS EXTENDED TO OTHERS OF THAT RELIGION. THEY HELD CONVENTICLES IN THE OPEN FIELDS AND BEING TREATED WITH GREAT VIOLENCE AND CRUELTY BY THE SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT MORE THAN ONCE TOOK ARMS DURING THOSE REIGNS. THEY TAKE THEIR NAME FROM THEIR LEADER RICHARD CAMERON. SINCE THAT TIME THEIR NUMBERS HAVE GRADUALLY DIMINISHED BUT A GOOD MANY ARE STILL TO BE FOUND IN THE WESTERN COUNTIES AND SEVERAL WITH A BETTER TEMPER THAN IN SEVENTEEN O SEVEN HAVE NOW TAKEN ARMS FOR GOVERNMENT

+ALL WERE SET UPON NICELY CARVED PINK PEDESTALS. THEY WERE OF COURSE STATUES OF PINKY MEN AND WOMEN AND ALL HAD BANDS OF PINK METAL AROUND THEIR FOREHEADS IN THE CENTER OF EACH BAND BEING A GLISTENING PINK JEWEL. IT HAD NO ORNAMENTATION BEING EXCEEDINGLY PLAIN IN APPEARANCE. NO BANNERS FLOATED FROM IT NO FLOWERS GREW NEAR IT. HERE SAID ONE OF THEIR GUIDES AS THE PROCESSION HALTED BEFORE THE LITTLE STONE BUILDING IS THE PALACE OF TOURMALINE WHO IS OUR QUEEN. WHAT THAT LITTLE CABIN. EXCLAIMED TROT OF COURSE. DID YOU SUPPOSE A PALACE WOULD BE LIKE ONE OF OUR HANDSOME RESIDENCES ASKED THE WOMAN EVIDENTLY SURPRISED. THESE INTRUDERS ARE VERY PECULIAR PEOPLE REMARKED A MAN IN THE CROWD. THEY SEEM VERY IGNORANT POOR THINGS SAID ANOTHER IN REPLY. COME COMMANDED THE WOMAN WHO LED THE PARTY YOU THREE MUST FOLLOW ME TO THE PRESENCE OF TOURMALINE. THE PEOPLE MUST WAIT OUTSIDE FOR THERE IS NO ROOM FOR THEM IN THE PALACE. SO THEY FOLLOWED HER THROUGH THE LOW ARCHWAY AND IN A ROOM BEYOND VERY SIMPLY FURNISHED SAT A YOUNG GIRL ENGAGED IN DARNING A PAIR OF PINK STOCKINGS. SHE WAS A BEAUTIFUL GIRL OF ABOUT SEVENTEEN YEARS OF AGE NOT FAT LIKE ALL THE REST OF THE PINKIES BUT SLENDER AND WELL FORMED ACCORDING TO OUR OWN IDEAS OF BEAUTY. HER COMPLEXION WAS NOT A DECIDED PINK BUT A SOFT ROSY TINT NOT MUCH DEEPER THAN THAT OF TROT'S SKIN. INSTEAD OF A SILKEN GOWN FURBELOWED LIKE ALL THE OTHERS THEY HAD SEEN WOMEN WEAR IN THIS LAND TOURMALINE WAS DRESSED IN A SEVERELY PLAIN ROBE OF COARSE PINK CLOTH MUCH RESEMBLING BEDTICKING. AS THEY ENTERED THE GIRL SIGHED AND LAID DOWN HER WORK. WHAT IS IT CORALIE SHE ASKED THE WOMAN. THE QUEEN GAZED UPON OUR FRIENDS WITH EVIDENT INTEREST. SHE SMILED A LITTLE SADLY AT TROT SEEMED TO APPROVE BUTTON BRIGHT'S OPEN FRANK FACE AND WAS QUITE SURPRISED BECAUSE CAP'N BILL WAS SO MUCH BIGGER THAN HER OWN PEOPLE. ARE YOU A GIANT. SHE ASKED THE SAILOR IN A SOFT SWEET VOICE. SHE EXCLAIMED FLUSHING A DEEPER PINK ARE YOU ADDRESSING THAT WORD TO ME. PERHAPS YOU ARE TRYING TO RIDICULE ME SHE CONTINUED REGARDING THE SAILOR'S FACE CLOSELY. THERE IS NOTHING MAJESTIC ABOUT ME AS YOU KNOW VERY WELL. CORALIE DO YOU CONSIDER MAJESTY A PROPER WORD TO USE WHEN ADDRESSING A QUEEN. SHE ADDED APPEALING TO THE PINKY WOMAN BY NO MEANS WAS THE PROMPT REPLY. JUST TOURMALINE THAT IS HER NAME AND IT IS SUFFICIENT SAID THE WOMAN. THE RULER OF A COUNTRY OUGHT TO BE TREATED WITH GREAT RESPEC DECLARED TROT A LITTLE INDIGNANTLY FOR SHE THOUGHT THE PRETTY LITTLE QUEEN WAS NOT BEING PROPERLY DEFERRED TO. WHY ASKED TOURMALINE CURIOUSLY. EVEN IN AMERICA EVER'BODY BOWS LOW TO OUR PRESIDENT AN THE BLUESKINS ARE SO FRAID O THEIR BOOLOOROO THAT THEY TREMBLE WHENEVER THEY GO NEAR HIM. BUT SURELY THAT IS ALL WRONG SAID TOURMALINE GRAVELY. I EVEN DECREE DEATH WHEN SUCH A PUNISHMENT IS MERITED. THEREFORE I AM A MERE AGENT TO DIRECT THE LAWS WHICH ARE THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE AND AM ONLY A PUBLIC SERVANT OBLIGED CONSTANTLY TO GUARD THE WELFARE OF MY SUBJECTS. IN THAT CASE SAID BUTTON BRIGHT YOU'RE ENTITLED TO THE BEST THERE IS TO PAY FOR YOUR TROUBLE. A POWERFUL RULER OUGHT TO BE RICH AND TO LIVE IN A SPLENDID PALACE. YOUR FOLKS OUGHT TO TREAT YOU WITH GREAT RESPECT AS TROT SAYS. OH NO RESPONDED TOURMALINE QUICKLY THAT WOULD INDEED BE VERY WRONG. TOO MUCH SHOULD NEVER BE GIVEN TO ANYONE IF WITH MY GREAT POWER CONFERRED UPON ME BY THE PEOPLE I ALSO POSSESSED GREAT WEALTH I MIGHT BE TEMPTED TO BE CRUEL AND OVERBEARING. IN THAT CASE MY SUBJECTS WOULD JUSTLY GROW ENVIOUS OF MY SUPERIOR STATION. IF I LIVED AS LUXURIOUSLY AS MY PEOPLE DO AND HAD SERVANTS AND COSTLY GOWNS THE GOOD PINKIES WOULD SAY THAT THEIR QUEEN HAD MORE THAN THEY THEMSELVES AND IT WOULD BE TRUE. NO OUR WAY IS BEST

A MISFORTUNE OF BIRTH PLACED ME HERE AND I CANNOT ESCAPE MY FATE. IT IS MUCH MORE DESIRABLE TO BE A PRIVATE CITIZEN HAPPY AND CARE FREE. TELL ME WHO YOU ARE AND WHY YOU HAVE COME HERE. BETWEEN THEM THEY TOLD THE STORY OF HOW THE MAGIC UMBRELLA HAD TAKEN THEM TO SKY ISLAND WHICH THEY DID NOT KNOW WHEN THEY STARTED WAS ANYWHERE IN EXISTENCE BUTTON BRIGHT TOLD THIS AND THEN TROT RELATED THEIR ADVENTURES AMONG THE BLUESKINS AND HOW THE BOOLOOROO HAD STOLEN THE UMBRELLA AND PREVENTED THEM FROM GOING HOME AGAIN. THE PARROT ON HER SHOULDER KEPT INTERRUPTING HER CONTINUALLY FOR THE MENTION OF THE BOOLOOROO SEEMED TO MAKE THE BIRD FRANTIC WITH RAGE. NAUGHTY NAUGH TY BOO LOO ROO HE'S THE WORST I EV ER KNEW. THE PARROT REPEATED OVER AND OVER AGAIN. CAP'N BILL FINISHED THE STORY BY TELLING OF THEIR ESCAPE THROUGH THE FOG BANK. PRETTY WET PRETTY WET WAS THE JOURNEY YOU CAN BET. DECLARED THE PARROT IN CONCLUSION. YES IT WAS WET AN STICKY ALL RIGHT AGREED THE SAILOR BUT THE BIG FROG HELPED US AN WE GOT THROUGH ALL RIGHT. BUT WHAT CAN YOU DO HERE ASKED TOURMALINE. YOU ARE NOT LIKE MY PEOPLE THE PINKIES AND THERE IS NO PLACE FOR YOU IN OUR COUNTRY. THAT'S TRUE ENOUGH SAID CAP'N BILL BUT WE HAD TO GO SOMEWHERE AN THIS WAS THE LIKELIEST PLACE WE COULD THINK OF. IN ALL OUR HISTORY YOU ARE THE FIRST PEOPLE FROM OUTSIDE OUR BORDERS WHO HAVE EVER STEPPED A FOOT IN OUR LAND. WE DO NOT HATE YOU AS YOU SAY THE BLUESKINS DO NOR ARE WE SAVAGE OR CRUEL BUT WE DO NOT WANT YOU HERE AND I AM REALLY PUZZLED WHAT TO DO WITH YOU. ISN'T THERE A LAW TO COVER THIS CASE ASKED CORALIE. IF NOT SAID THE WOMAN YOU MUST MAKE A LAW IT IS YOUR DUTY. WE WISH SO TOO HAVEN'T YOU ANY FAIRIES HERE. OH THERE ARE FAIRIES OF COURSE AS THERE ARE EVERYWHERE ANSWERED TOURMALINE BUT NONE THAT WE CAN CALL TO OUR ASSISTANCE OR COMMAND TO DO OUR BIDDING HOW ABOUT WITCHES. BUT IF THERE IS NO OTHER WAY I MAY BE OBLIGED TO CALL UPON ROSALIE FOR HELP. I'LL LOOK IN THE GREAT BOOK FIRST. MEANTIME YOU WILL GO HOME WITH CORALIE WHO WILL FEED YOU AND GIVE YOU ENTERTAINMENT

+THE SAVAGE PHILOSOPHER THE DUAL MIND. SPIRITUAL GIFTS VERSUS MATERIAL PROGRESS. THE PARADOX OF CHRISTIAN CIVILIZATION. THE ORIGINAL ATTITUDE OF THE AMERICAN INDIAN TOWARD THE ETERNAL THE GREAT MYSTERY THAT SURROUNDS AND EMBRACES US WAS AS SIMPLE AS IT WAS EXALTED. TO HIM IT WAS THE SUPREME CONCEPTION BRINGING WITH IT THE FULLEST MEASURE OF JOY AND SATISFACTION POSSIBLE IN THIS LIFE. THE WORSHIP OF THE GREAT MYSTERY WAS SILENT SOLITARY FREE FROM ALL SELF SEEKING. IT WAS SILENT BECAUSE ALL SPEECH IS OF NECESSITY FEEBLE AND IMPERFECT THEREFORE THE SOULS OF MY ANCESTORS ASCENDED TO GOD IN WORDLESS ADORATION. NONE MIGHT EXHORT OR CONFESS OR IN ANY WAY MEDDLE WITH THE RELIGIOUS EXPERIENCE OF ANOTHER. AMONG US ALL MEN WERE CREATED SONS OF GOD AND STOOD ERECT AS CONSCIOUS OF THEIR DIVINITY. OUR FAITH MIGHT NOT BE FORMULATED IN CREEDS NOR FORCED UPON ANY WHO WERE UNWILLING TO RECEIVE IT HENCE THERE WAS NO PREACHING PROSELYTING NOR PERSECUTION NEITHER WERE THERE ANY SCOFFERS OR ATHEISTS. THERE WERE NO TEMPLES OR SHRINES AMONG US SAVE THOSE OF NATURE. BEING A NATURAL MAN THE INDIAN WAS INTENSELY POETICAL. HE WOULD DEEM IT SACRILEGE TO BUILD A HOUSE FOR HIM WHO MAY BE MET FACE TO FACE IN THE MYSTERIOUS SHADOWY AISLES OF THE PRIMEVAL FOREST OR ON THE SUNLIT BOSOM OF VIRGIN PRAIRIES UPON DIZZY SPIRES AND PINNACLES OF NAKED ROCK AND YONDER IN THE JEWELED VAULT OF THE NIGHT SKY. HE WHO ENROBES HIMSELF IN FILMY VEILS OF CLOUD THERE ON THE RIM OF THE VISIBLE WORLD WHERE OUR GREAT GRANDFATHER SUN KINDLES HIS EVENING CAMP FIRE HE WHO RIDES UPON THE RIGOROUS WIND OF THE NORTH OR BREATHES FORTH HIS SPIRIT UPON AROMATIC SOUTHERN AIRS WHOSE WAR CANOE IS LAUNCHED UPON MAJESTIC RIVERS AND INLAND SEAS HE NEEDS NO LESSER CATHEDRAL. THAT SOLITARY COMMUNION WITH THE UNSEEN WHICH WAS THE HIGHEST EXPRESSION OF OUR RELIGIOUS LIFE IS PARTLY DESCRIBED IN THE WORD BAMBEDAY LITERALLY MYSTERIOUS FEELING WHICH HAS BEEN VARIOUSLY TRANSLATED FASTING AND DREAMING. THE FIRST BAMBEDAY OR RELIGIOUS RETREAT MARKED AN EPOCH IN THE LIFE OF THE YOUTH WHICH MAY BE COMPARED TO THAT OF CONFIRMATION OR CONVERSION IN CHRISTIAN EXPERIENCE. HAVING FIRST PREPARED HIMSELF BY MEANS OF THE PURIFYING VAPOR BATH AND CAST OFF AS FAR AS POSSIBLE ALL HUMAN OR FLESHLY INFLUENCES THE YOUNG MAN SOUGHT OUT THE NOBLEST HEIGHT THE MOST COMMANDING SUMMIT IN ALL THE SURROUNDING REGION. KNOWING THAT GOD SETS NO VALUE UPON MATERIAL THINGS HE TOOK WITH HIM NO OFFERINGS OR SACRIFICES OTHER THAN SYMBOLIC OBJECTS SUCH AS PAINTS AND TOBACCO. WISHING TO APPEAR BEFORE HIM IN ALL HUMILITY HE WORE NO CLOTHING SAVE HIS MOCCASINS AND BREECH CLOUT. AT THE SOLEMN HOUR OF SUNRISE OR SUNSET HE TOOK UP HIS POSITION OVERLOOKING THE GLORIES OF EARTH AND FACING THE GREAT MYSTERY AND THERE HE REMAINED NAKED ERECT SILENT AND MOTIONLESS EXPOSED TO THE ELEMENTS AND FORCES OF HIS ARMING FOR A NIGHT AND A DAY TO TWO DAYS AND NIGHTS BUT RARELY LONGER. SOMETIMES HE WOULD CHANT A HYMN WITHOUT WORDS OR OFFER THE CEREMONIAL FILLED PIPE. IN THIS HOLY TRANCE OR ECSTASY THE INDIAN MYSTIC FOUND HIS HIGHEST HAPPINESS AND THE MOTIVE POWER OF HIS EXISTENCE. WHEN HE RETURNED TO THE CAMP HE MUST REMAIN AT A DISTANCE UNTIL HE HAD AGAIN ENTERED THE VAPOR BATH AND PREPARED HIMSELF FOR INTERCOURSE WITH HIS FELLOWS. OF THE VISION OR SIGN VOUCHSAFED TO HIM HE DID NOT SPEAK UNLESS IT HAD INCLUDED SOME COMMISSION WHICH MUST BE PUBLICLY FULFILLED. SOMETIMES AN OLD MAN STANDING UPON THE BRINK OF ETERNITY MIGHT REVEAL TO A CHOSEN FEW THE ORACLE OF HIS LONG PAST YOUTH. THE NATIVE AMERICAN HAS BEEN GENERALLY DESPISED BY HIS WHITE CONQUERORS FOR HIS POVERTY AND SIMPLICITY. FURTHERMORE IT WAS THE RULE OF HIS LIFE TO SHARE THE FRUITS OF HIS SKILL AND SUCCESS WITH HIS LESS FORTUNATE BROTHERS

+THUS HE KEPT HIS SPIRIT FREE FROM THE CLOG OF PRIDE CUPIDITY OR ENVY AND CARRIED OUT AS HE BELIEVED THE DIVINE DECREE A MATTER PROFOUNDLY IMPORTANT TO HIM. IT WAS NOT THEN WHOLLY FROM IGNORANCE OR IMPROVIDENCE THAT HE FAILED TO ESTABLISH PERMANENT TOWNS AND TO DEVELOP A MATERIAL CIVILIZATION. TO THE UNTUTORED SAGE THE CONCENTRATION OF POPULATION WAS THE PROLIFIC MOTHER OF ALL EVILS MORAL NO LESS THAN PHYSICAL. HE ARGUED THAT FOOD IS GOOD WHILE SURFEIT KILLS THAT LOVE IS GOOD BUT LUST DESTROYS AND NOT LESS DREADED THAN THE PESTILENCE FOLLOWING UPON CROWDED AND UNSANITARY DWELLINGS WAS THE LOSS OF SPIRITUAL POWER INSEPARABLE FROM TOO CLOSE CONTACT WITH ONE'S FELLOW MEN. ALL WHO HAVE LIVED MUCH OUT OF DOORS KNOW THAT THERE IS A MAGNETIC AND NERVOUS FORCE THAT ACCUMULATES IN SOLITUDE AND THAT IS QUICKLY DISSIPATED BY LIFE IN A CROWD AND EVEN HIS ENEMIES HAVE RECOGNIZED THE FACT THAT FOR A CERTAIN INNATE POWER AND SELF POISE WHOLLY INDEPENDENT OF CIRCUMSTANCES THE AMERICAN INDIAN IS UNSURPASSED AMONG MEN. THE RED MAN DIVIDED MIND INTO TWO PARTS THE SPIRITUAL MIND AND THE PHYSICAL MIND. THE FIRST IS PURE SPIRIT CONCERNED ONLY WITH THE ESSENCE OF THINGS AND IT WAS THIS HE SOUGHT TO STRENGTHEN BY SPIRITUAL PRAYER DURING WHICH THE BODY IS SUBDUED BY FASTING AND HARDSHIP. IN THIS TYPE OF PRAYER THERE WAS NO BESEECHING OF FAVOR OR HELP. ALL MATTERS OF PERSONAL OR SELFISH CONCERN AS SUCCESS IN HUNTING OR WARFARE RELIEF FROM SICKNESS OR THE SPARING OF A BELOVED LIFE WERE DEFINITELY RELEGATED TO THE PLANE OF THE LOWER OR MATERIAL MIND AND ALL CEREMONIES CHARMS OR INCANTATIONS DESIGNED TO SECURE A BENEFIT OR TO AVERT A DANGER WERE RECOGNIZED AS EMANATING FROM THE PHYSICAL SELF. THE RITES OF THIS PHYSICAL WORSHIP AGAIN WERE WHOLLY SYMBOLIC AND THE INDIAN NO MORE WORSHIPED THE SUN THAN THE CHRISTIAN ADORES THE CROSS. FROM THE SUN AS THE UNIVERSAL FATHER PROCEEDS THE QUICKENING PRINCIPLE IN NATURE AND IN THE PATIENT AND FRUITFUL WOMB OF OUR MOTHER THE EARTH ARE HIDDEN EMBRYOS OF PLANTS AND MEN. THIS IS THE MATERIAL OR PHYSICAL PRAYER. THE ELEMENTS AND MAJESTIC FORCES IN NATURE LIGHTNING WIND WATER FIRE AND FROST WERE REGARDED WITH AWE AS SPIRITUAL POWERS BUT ALWAYS SECONDARY AND INTERMEDIATE IN CHARACTER. WE BELIEVED THAT THE SPIRIT PERVADES ALL CREATION AND THAT EVERY CREATURE POSSESSES A SOUL IN SOME DEGREE THOUGH NOT NECESSARILY A SOUL CONSCIOUS OF ITSELF. THE TREE THE WATERFALL THE GRIZZLY BEAR EACH IS AN EMBODIED FORCE AND AS SUCH AN OBJECT OF REVERENCE. THE INDIAN LOVED TO COME INTO SYMPATHY AND SPIRITUAL COMMUNION WITH HIS BROTHERS OF THE ANIMAL KINGDOM WHOSE INARTICULATE SOULS HAD FOR HIM SOMETHING OF THE SINLESS PURITY THAT WE ATTRIBUTE TO THE INNOCENT AND IRRESPONSIBLE CHILD. HE HAD FAITH IN THEIR INSTINCTS AS IN A MYSTERIOUS WISDOM GIVEN FROM ABOVE AND WHILE HE HUMBLY ACCEPTED THE SUPPOSEDLY VOLUNTARY SACRIFICE OF THEIR BODIES TO PRESERVE HIS OWN HE PAID HOMAGE TO THEIR SPIRITS IN PRESCRIBED PRAYERS AND OFFERINGS. WITH HIS LIMITED KNOWLEDGE OF CAUSE AND EFFECT HE SAW MIRACLES ON EVERY HAND THE MIRACLE OF LIFE IN SEED AND EGG THE MIRACLE OF DEATH IN LIGHTNING FLASH AND IN THE SWELLING DEEP. NOTHING OF THE MARVELOUS COULD ASTONISH HIM AS THAT A BEAST SHOULD SPEAK OR THE SUN STAND STILL. THE VIRGIN BIRTH WOULD APPEAR SCARCELY MORE MIRACULOUS THAN IS THE BIRTH OF EVERY CHILD THAT COMES INTO THE WORLD OR THE MIRACLE OF THE LOAVES AND FISHES EXCITE MORE WONDER THAN THE HARVEST THAT SPRINGS FROM A SINGLE EAR OF CORN. WHO MAY CONDEMN HIS SUPERSTITION. SURELY NOT THE DEVOUT CATHOLIC OR EVEN PROTESTANT MISSIONARY WHO TEACHES BIBLE MIRACLES AS LITERAL FACT. THE LOGICAL MAN MUST EITHER DENY ALL MIRACLES OR NONE AND OUR AMERICAN INDIAN MYTHS AND HERO STORIES ARE PERHAPS IN THEMSELVES QUITE AS CREDIBLE AS THOSE OF THE HEBREWS OF OLD. IF WE ARE OF THE MODERN TYPE OF MIND THAT SEES IN NATURAL LAW A MAJESTY AND GRANDEUR FAR MORE IMPRESSIVE THAN ANY SOLITARY INFRACTION OF IT COULD POSSIBLY BE LET US NOT FORGET THAT AFTER ALL SCIENCE HAS NOT EXPLAINED EVERYTHING

+WE HAVE STILL TO FACE THE ULTIMATE MIRACLE THE ORIGIN AND PRINCIPLE OF LIFE. HERE IS THE SUPREME MYSTERY THAT IS THE ESSENCE OF WORSHIP WITHOUT WHICH THERE CAN BE NO RELIGION AND IN THE PRESENCE OF THIS MYSTERY OUR ATTITUDE CANNOT BE VERY UNLIKE THAT OF THE NATURAL PHILOSOPHER WHO BEHOLDS WITH AWE THE DIVINE IN ALL CREATION. IT IS SIMPLE TRUTH THAT THE INDIAN DID NOT SO LONG AS HIS NATIVE PHILOSOPHY HELD SWAY OVER HIS MIND EITHER ENVY OR DESIRE TO IMITATE THE SPLENDID ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE WHITE MAN. IN HIS OWN THOUGHT HE ROSE SUPERIOR TO THEM HE SCORNED THEM EVEN AS A LOFTY SPIRIT ABSORBED IN ITS STERN TASK REJECTS THE SOFT BEDS THE LUXURIOUS FOOD THE PLEASURE WORSHIPING DALLIANCE OF A RICH NEIGHBOR. IT WAS CLEAR TO HIM THAT VIRTUE AND HAPPINESS ARE INDEPENDENT OF THESE THINGS IF NOT INCOMPATIBLE WITH THEM. YET THE RELIGION THAT IS PREACHED IN OUR CHURCHES AND PRACTICED BY OUR CONGREGATIONS WITH ITS ELEMENT OF DISPLAY AND SELF AGGRANDIZEMENT ITS ACTIVE PROSELYTISM AND ITS OPEN CONTEMPT OF ALL RELIGIONS BUT ITS OWN WAS FOR A LONG TIME EXTREMELY REPELLENT. STRANGE AS IT MAY SEEM IT IS TRUE THAT THE PROUD PAGAN IN HIS SECRET SOUL DESPISED THE GOOD MEN WHO CAME TO CONVERT AND TO ENLIGHTEN HIM. NOR WERE ITS PUBLICITY AND ITS PHARISEEISM THE ONLY ELEMENTS IN THE ALIEN RELIGION THAT OFFENDED THE RED MAN. TO HIM IT APPEARED SHOCKING AND ALMOST INCREDIBLE THAT THERE WERE AMONG THIS PEOPLE WHO CLAIMED SUPERIORITY MANY IRRELIGIOUS WHO DID NOT EVEN PRETEND TO PROFESS THE NATIONAL FAITH. NOT ONLY DID THEY NOT PROFESS IT BUT THEY STOOPED SO LOW AS TO INSULT THEIR GOD WITH PROFANE AND SACRILEGIOUS SPEECH. MORE THAN THIS EVEN IN THOSE WHITE MEN WHO PROFESSED RELIGION WE FOUND MUCH INCONSISTENCY OF CONDUCT. THEY SPOKE MUCH OF SPIRITUAL THINGS WHILE SEEKING ONLY THE MATERIAL. THEY BOUGHT AND SOLD EVERYTHING TIME LABOR PERSONAL INDEPENDENCE THE LOVE OF WOMAN AND EVEN THE MINISTRATIONS OF THEIR HOLY FAITH. HE MIGHT IN TIME COME TO RECOGNIZE THAT THE DRUNKARDS AND LICENTIOUS AMONG WHITE MEN WITH WHOM HE TOO FREQUENTLY CAME IN CONTACT WERE CONDEMNED BY THE WHITE MAN'S RELIGION AS WELL AND MUST NOT BE HELD TO DISCREDIT IT. BUT IT WAS NOT SO EASY TO OVERLOOK OR TO EXCUSE NATIONAL BAD FAITH. THE HISTORIANS OF THE WHITE RACE ADMIT THAT THE INDIAN WAS NEVER THE FIRST TO REPUDIATE HIS OATH

+EARLY RELIGIOUS TEACHING THE FUNCTION OF THE AGED. WOMAN MARRIAGE AND THE FAMILY. LOYALTY HOSPITALITY FRIENDSHIP. THE AMERICAN INDIAN WAS AN INDIVIDUALIST IN RELIGION AS IN WAR. HE HAD NEITHER A NATIONAL ARMY NOR AN ORGANIZED CHURCH. THERE WAS NO PRIEST TO ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANOTHER'S SOUL. THAT IS WE BELIEVED THE SUPREME DUTY OF THE PARENT WHO ONLY WAS PERMITTED TO CLAIM IN SOME DEGREE THE PRIESTLY OFFICE AND FUNCTION SINCE IT IS HIS CREATIVE AND PROTECTING POWER WHICH ALONE APPROACHES THE SOLEMN FUNCTION OF DEITY. THE INDIAN WAS A RELIGIOUS MAN FROM HIS MOTHER'S WOMB. FROM THE MOMENT OF HER RECOGNITION OF THE FACT OF CONCEPTION TO THE END OF THE SECOND YEAR OF LIFE WHICH WAS THE ORDINARY DURATION OF LACTATION IT WAS SUPPOSED BY US THAT THE MOTHER'S SPIRITUAL INFLUENCE COUNTED FOR MOST. HER ATTITUDE AND SECRET MEDITATIONS MUST BE SUCH AS TO INSTILL INTO THE RECEPTIVE SOUL OF THE UNBORN CHILD THE LOVE OF THE GREAT MYSTERY AND A SENSE OF BROTHERHOOD WITH ALL CREATION. SILENCE AND ISOLATION ARE THE RULE OF LIFE FOR THE EXPECTANT MOTHER. SHE WANDERS PRAYERFUL IN THE STILLNESS OF GREAT WOODS OR ON THE BOSOM OF THE UNTRODDEN PRAIRIE AND TO HER POETIC MIND THE IMMANENT BIRTH OF HER CHILD PREFIGURES THE ADVENT OF A MASTER MAN A HERO OR THE MOTHER OF HEROES A THOUGHT CONCEIVED IN THE VIRGIN BREAST OF PRIMEVAL NATURE AND DREAMED OUT IN A HUSH THAT IS ONLY BROKEN BY THE SIGHING OF THE PINE TREE OR THE THRILLING ORCHESTRA OF A DISTANT WATERFALL. AND WHEN THE DAY OF DAYS IN HER LIFE DAWNS THE DAY IN WHICH THERE IS TO BE A NEW LIFE THE MIRACLE OF WHOSE MAKING HAS BEEN INTRUSTED TO HER SHE SEEKS NO HUMAN AID. SHE HAS BEEN TRAINED AND PREPARED IN BODY AND MIND FOR THIS HER HOLIEST DUTY EVER SINCE SHE CAN REMEMBER. THE ORDEAL IS BEST MET ALONE WHERE NO CURIOUS OR PITYING EYES EMBARRASS HER WHERE ALL NATURE SAYS TO HER SPIRIT TIS LOVE TIS LOVE THE FULFILLING OF LIFE. SHE FEELS THE ENDEARING WARMTH OF IT AND HEARS ITS SOFT BREATHING. IT IS STILL A PART OF HERSELF SINCE BOTH ARE NOURISHED BY THE SAME MOUTHFUL AND NO LOOK OF A LOVER COULD BE SWEETER THAN ITS DEEP TRUSTING GAZE. TO HER AND TO THE CHILD THE BIRDS ARE REAL PEOPLE WHO LIVE VERY CLOSE TO THE GREAT MYSTERY THE MURMURING TREES BREATHE HIS PRESENCE THE FALLING WATERS CHANT HIS PRAISE. IF THE CHILD SHOULD CHANCE TO BE FRETFUL THE MOTHER RAISES HER HAND HUSH HUSH SHE CAUTIONS IT TENDERLY THE SPIRITS MAY BE DISTURBED. SHE BIDS IT BE STILL AND LISTEN LISTEN TO THE SILVER VOICE OF THE ASPEN OR THE CLASHING CYMBALS OF THE BIRCH AND AT NIGHT SHE POINTS TO THE HEAVENLY BLAZED TRAIL THROUGH NATURE'S GALAXY OF SPLENDOR TO NATURE'S GOD. SILENCE LOVE REVERENCE THIS IS THE TRINITY OF FIRST LESSONS AND TO THESE SHE LATER ADDS GENEROSITY COURAGE AND CHASTITY. IN THE OLD DAYS OUR MOTHERS WERE SINGLE EYED TO THE TRUST IMPOSED UPON THEM AND AS A NOTED CHIEF OF OUR PEOPLE WAS WONT TO SAY MEN MAY SLAY ONE ANOTHER BUT THEY CAN NEVER OVERCOME THE WOMAN FOR IN THE QUIETUDE OF HER LAP LIES THE CHILD. YOU MAY DESTROY HIM ONCE AND AGAIN BUT HE ISSUES AS OFTEN FROM THAT SAME GENTLE LAP A GIFT OF THE GREAT GOOD TO THE RACE IN WHICH MAN IS ONLY AN ACCOMPLICE. THIS WILD MOTHER HAS NOT ONLY THE EXPERIENCE OF HER MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER AND THE ACCEPTED RULES OF HER PEOPLE FOR A GUIDE BUT SHE HUMBLY SEEKS TO LEARN A LESSON FROM ANTS BEES SPIDERS BEAVERS AND BADGERS. SHE STUDIES THE FAMILY LIFE OF THE BIRDS SO EXQUISITE IN ITS EMOTIONAL INTENSITY AND ITS PATIENT DEVOTION UNTIL SHE SEEMS TO FEEL THE UNIVERSAL MOTHER HEART BEATING IN HER OWN BREAST. IN DUE TIME THE CHILD TAKES OF HIS OWN ACCORD THE ATTITUDE OF PRAYER AND SPEAKS REVERENTLY OF THE POWERS. HE THINKS THAT HE IS A BLOOD BROTHER TO ALL LIVING CREATURES AND THE STORM WIND IS TO HIM A MESSENGER OF THE GREAT MYSTERY. AT THE AGE OF ABOUT EIGHT YEARS IF HE IS A BOY SHE TURNS HIM OVER TO HIS FATHER FOR MORE SPARTAN TRAINING

+IF A GIRL SHE IS FROM THIS TIME MUCH UNDER THE GUARDIANSHIP OF HER GRANDMOTHER WHO IS CONSIDERED THE MOST DIGNIFIED PROTECTOR FOR THE MAIDEN. INDEED THE DISTINCTIVE WORK OF BOTH GRANDPARENTS IS THAT OF ACQUAINTING THE YOUTH WITH THE NATIONAL TRADITIONS AND BELIEFS. THE OLD ARE DEDICATED TO THE SERVICE OF THE YOUNG AS THEIR TEACHERS AND ADVISERS AND THE YOUNG IN TURN REGARD THEM WITH LOVE AND REVERENCE. OUR OLD AGE WAS IN SOME RESPECTS THE HAPPIEST PERIOD OF LIFE ADVANCING YEARS BROUGHT WITH THEM MUCH FREEDOM NOT ONLY FROM THE BURDEN OF LABORIOUS AND DANGEROUS TASKS BUT FROM THOSE RESTRICTIONS OF CUSTOM AND ETIQUETTE WHICH WERE RELIGIOUSLY OBSERVED BY ALL OTHERS. NO ONE WHO IS AT ALL ACQUAINTED WITH THE INDIAN IN HIS HOME CAN DENY THAT WE ARE A POLITE PEOPLE. AS A RULE THE WARRIOR WHO INSPIRED THE GREATEST TERROR IN THE HEARTS OF HIS ENEMIES WAS A MAN OF THE MOST EXEMPLARY GENTLENESS AND ALMOST FEMININE REFINEMENT AMONG HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS. A SOFT LOW VOICE WAS CONSIDERED AN EXCELLENT THING IN MAN AS WELL AS IN WOMAN. INDEED THE ENFORCED INTIMACY OF TENT LIFE WOULD SOON BECOME INTOLERABLE WERE IT NOT FOR THESE INSTINCTIVE RESERVES AND DELICACIES THIS UNFAILING RESPECT FOR THE ESTABLISHED PLACE AND POSSESSIONS OF EVERY OTHER MEMBER OF THE FAMILY CIRCLE THIS HABITUAL QUIET ORDER AND DECORUM. ONLY TO THE AGED WHO HAVE JOURNEYED FAR AND ARE IN A MANNER EXEMPT FROM ORDINARY RULES ARE PERMITTED SOME PLAYFUL FAMILIARITIES WITH CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN SOME PLAIN SPEAKING EVEN TO HARSHNESS AND OBJURGATION FROM WHICH THE OTHERS MUST RIGIDLY REFRAIN. IN SHORT THE OLD MEN AND WOMEN ARE PRIVILEGED TO SAY WHAT THEY PLEASE AND HOW THEY PLEASE WITHOUT CONTRADICTION WHILE THE HARDSHIPS AND BODILY INFIRMITIES THAT OF NECESSITY FALL TO THEIR LOT ARE SOFTENED SO FAR AS MAY BE BY UNIVERSAL CONSIDERATION AND ATTENTION. WE BELIEVED THAT TWO WHO LOVE SHOULD BE UNITED IN SECRET BEFORE THE PUBLIC ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF THEIR UNION AND SHOULD TASTE THEIR APOTHEOSIS ALONE WITH NATURE. AN EXCHANGE OF PRESENTS AND ENTERTAINMENTS BETWEEN THE TWO FAMILIES USUALLY FOLLOWED BUT THE NUPTIAL BLESSING WAS GIVEN BY THE HIGH PRIEST OF GOD THE MOST REVEREND AND HOLY NATURE. THE FAMILY WAS NOT ONLY THE SOCIAL UNIT BUT ALSO THE UNIT OF GOVERNMENT. THE CLAN IS NOTHING MORE THAN A LARGER FAMILY WITH ITS PATRIARCHAL CHIEF AS THE NATURAL HEAD AND THE UNION OF SEVERAL CLANS BY INTERMARRIAGE AND VOLUNTARY CONNECTION CONSTITUTES THE TRIBE. THE VERY NAME OF OUR TRIBE DAKOTA MEANS ALLIED PEOPLE. THE REMOTER DEGREES OF KINSHIP WERE FULLY RECOGNIZED AND THAT NOT AS A MATTER OF FORM ONLY FIRST COUSINS WERE KNOWN AS BROTHERS AND SISTERS THE NAME OF COUSIN CONSTITUTED A BINDING CLAIM AND OUR RIGID MORALITY FORBADE MARRIAGE BETWEEN COUSINS IN ANY KNOWN DEGREE OR IN OTHER WORDS WITHIN THE CLAN. THERE WERE INDEED FEW PLURAL MARRIAGES EXCEPT AMONG THE OLDER AND LEADING MEN AND PLURAL WIVES WERE USUALLY THOUGH NOT NECESSARILY SISTERS. A MARRIAGE MIGHT HONORABLY BE DISSOLVED FOR CAUSE BUT THERE WAS VERY LITTLE INFIDELITY OR IMMORALITY EITHER OPEN OR SECRET. IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT THE POSITION OF WOMAN IS THE TEST OF CIVILIZATION AND THAT OF OUR WOMEN WAS SECURE. IN THEM WAS VESTED OUR STANDARD OF MORALS AND THE PURITY OF OUR BLOOD. THE WIFE DID NOT TAKE THE NAME OF HER HUSBAND NOR ENTER HIS CLAN AND THE CHILDREN BELONGED TO THE CLAN OF THE MOTHER. ALL OF THE FAMILY PROPERTY WAS HELD BY HER DESCENT WAS TRACED IN THE MATERNAL LINE AND THE HONOR OF THE HOUSE WAS IN HER HANDS. MODESTY WAS HER CHIEF ADORNMENT HENCE THE YOUNGER WOMEN WERE USUALLY SILENT AND RETIRING BUT A WOMAN WHO HAD ATTAINED TO RIPENESS OF YEARS AND WISDOM OR WHO HAD DISPLAYED NOTABLE COURAGE IN SOME EMERGENCY WAS SOMETIMES INVITED TO A SEAT IN THE COUNCIL. WHEN SHE FELL THE WHOLE RACE FELL WITH HER. BEFORE THIS CALAMITY CAME UPON US YOU COULD NOT FIND ANYWHERE A HAPPIER HOME THAN THAT CREATED BY THE INDIAN WOMAN. HER EARLY AND CONSISTENT TRAINING THE DEFINITENESS OF HER VOCATION AND ABOVE ALL HER PROFOUNDLY RELIGIOUS ATTITUDE GAVE HER A STRENGTH AND POISE THAT COULD NOT BE OVERCOME BY ANY ORDINARY MISFORTUNE

+INDIAN NAMES WERE EITHER CHARACTERISTIC NICKNAMES GIVEN IN A PLAYFUL SPIRIT DEED NAMES BIRTH NAMES OR SUCH AS HAVE A RELIGIOUS AND SYMBOLIC MEANING. THIS IS SOMETIMES THE CASE BUT IS NOT THE RULE. A MAN OF FORCIBLE CHARACTER WITH A FINE WAR RECORD USUALLY BEARS THE NAME OF THE BUFFALO OR BEAR LIGHTNING OR SOME DREAD NATURAL FORCE. ANOTHER OF MORE PEACEFUL NATURE MAY BE CALLED SWIFT BIRD OR BLUE SKY. A WOMAN'S NAME USUALLY SUGGESTED SOMETHING ABOUT THE HOME OFTEN WITH THE ADJECTIVE PRETTY OR GOOD AND A FEMININE TERMINATION. NAMES OF ANY DIGNITY OR IMPORTANCE MUST BE CONFERRED BY THE OLD MEN AND ESPECIALLY SO IF THEY HAVE ANY SPIRITUAL SIGNIFICANCE AS SACRED CLOUD MYSTERIOUS NIGHT SPIRIT WOMAN AND THE LIKE. SUCH A NAME WAS SOMETIMES BORNE BY THREE GENERATIONS BUT EACH INDIVIDUAL MUST PROVE THAT HE IS WORTHY OF IT. HIS DAILY DEVOTIONS WERE MORE NECESSARY TO HIM THAN DAILY FOOD. HE WAKES AT DAYBREAK PUTS ON HIS MOCCASINS AND STEPS DOWN TO THE WATER'S EDGE. HERE HE THROWS HANDFULS OF CLEAR COLD WATER INTO HIS FACE OR PLUNGES IN BODILY. AFTER THE BATH HE STANDS ERECT BEFORE THE ADVANCING DAWN FACING THE SUN AS IT DANCES UPON THE HORIZON AND OFFERS HIS UNSPOKEN ORISON. HIS MATE MAY PRECEDE OR FOLLOW HIM IN HIS DEVOTIONS BUT NEVER ACCOMPANIES HIM. EACH SOUL MUST MEET THE MORNING SUN THE NEW SWEET EARTH AND THE GREAT SILENCE ALONE. WHENEVER IN THE COURSE OF THE DAILY HUNT THE RED HUNTER COMES UPON A SCENE THAT IS STRIKINGLY BEAUTIFUL OR SUBLIME A BLACK THUNDERCLOUD WITH THE RAINBOW'S GLOWING ARCH ABOVE THE MOUNTAIN A WHITE WATERFALL IN THE HEART OF A GREEN GORGE A VAST PRAIRIE TINGED WITH THE BLOOD RED OF SUNSET HE PAUSES FOR AN INSTANT IN THE ATTITUDE OF WORSHIP. HE SEES NO NEED FOR SETTING APART ONE DAY IN SEVEN AS A HOLY DAY SINCE TO HIM ALL DAYS ARE GOD'S. EVERY ACT OF HIS LIFE IS IN A VERY REAL SENSE A RELIGIOUS ACT. HE RECOGNIZES THE SPIRIT IN ALL CREATION AND BELIEVES THAT HE DRAWS FROM IT SPIRITUAL POWER. HIS RESPECT FOR THE IMMORTAL PART OF THE ANIMAL HIS BROTHER OFTEN LEADS HIM SO FAR AS TO LAY OUT THE BODY OF HIS GAME IN STATE AND DECORATE THE HEAD WITH SYMBOLIC PAINT OR FEATHERS. AS HER HUSBAND RECEIVES THE BOWL OR PLATE HE LIKEWISE MURMURS HIS INVOCATION TO THE SPIRIT. WHEN HE BECOMES AN OLD MAN HE LOVES TO MAKE A NOTABLE EFFORT TO PROVE HIS GRATITUDE. HE CUTS OFF THE CHOICEST MORSEL OF THE MEAT AND CASTS IT INTO THE FIRE THE PUREST AND MOST ETHEREAL ELEMENT. THE HOSPITALITY OF THE WIGWAM IS ONLY LIMITED BY THE INSTITUTION OF WAR. YET IF AN ENEMY SHOULD HONOR US WITH A CALL HIS TRUST WILL NOT BE MISPLACED AND HE WILL GO AWAY CONVINCED THAT HE HAS MET WITH A ROYAL HOST. OUR HONOR IS THE GUARANTEE FOR HIS SAFETY SO LONG AS HE IS WITHIN THE CAMP. FRIENDSHIP IS HELD TO BE THE SEVEREST TEST OF CHARACTER. IT IS EASY WE THINK TO BE LOYAL TO FAMILY AND CLAN WHOSE BLOOD IS IN OUR OWN VEINS. LOVE BETWEEN MAN AND WOMAN IS FOUNDED ON THE MATING INSTINCT AND IS NOT FREE FROM DESIRE AND SELF SEEKING. BUT TO HAVE A FRIEND AND TO BE TRUE UNDER ANY AND ALL TRIALS IS THE MARK OF A MAN. THE HIGHEST TYPE OF FRIENDSHIP IS THE RELATION OF BROTHER FRIEND OR LIFE AND DEATH FRIEND. THIS BOND IS BETWEEN MAN AND MAN IS USUALLY FORMED IN EARLY YOUTH AND CAN ONLY BE BROKEN BY DEATH

+DEATH AND FUNERAL CUSTOMS THE SACRED LOCK OF HAIR. REINCARNATION AND THE CONVERSE OF SPIRITS. OCCULT AND PSYCHIC POWERS THE GIFT OF PROPHECY. THE ATTITUDE OF THE INDIAN TOWARD DEATH THE TEST AND BACKGROUND OF LIFE IS ENTIRELY CONSISTENT WITH HIS CHARACTER AND PHILOSOPHY. DEATH HAS NO TERRORS FOR HIM HE MEETS IT WITH SIMPLICITY AND PERFECT CALM SEEKING ONLY AN HONORABLE END AS HIS LAST GIFT TO HIS FAMILY AND DESCENDANTS. THEREFORE HE COURTS DEATH IN BATTLE ON THE OTHER HAND HE WOULD REGARD IT AS DISGRACEFUL TO BE KILLED IN A PRIVATE QUARREL. NEXT TO THIS THE MATTER THAT CONCERNS HIM MOST IS THE PARTING WITH HIS DEAR ONES ESPECIALLY IF HE HAVE ANY LITTLE CHILDREN WHO MUST BE LEFT BEHIND TO SUFFER WANT. HIS FAMILY AFFECTIONS ARE STRONG AND HE GRIEVES INTENSELY FOR THE LOST EVEN THOUGH HE HAS UNBOUNDED FAITH IN A SPIRITUAL COMPANIONSHIP. THE OUTWARD SIGNS OF MOURNING FOR THE DEAD ARE FAR MORE SPONTANEOUS AND CONVINCING THAN IS THE CORRECT AND WELL ORDERED BLACK OF CIVILIZATION. BOTH MEN AND WOMEN AMONG US LOOSEN THEIR HAIR AND CUT IT ACCORDING TO THE DEGREE OF RELATIONSHIP OR OF DEVOTION. CONSISTENT WITH THE IDEA OF SACRIFICING ALL PERSONAL BEAUTY AND ADORNMENT THEY TRIM OFF LIKEWISE FROM THE DRESS ITS FRINGES AND ORNAMENTS PERHAPS CUT IT SHORT OR CUT THE ROBE OR BLANKET IN TWO. THE MEN BLACKEN THEIR FACES AND WIDOWS OR BEREAVED PARENTS SOMETIMES GASH THEIR ARMS AND LEGS TILL THEY ARE COVERED WITH BLOOD. GIVING THEMSELVES UP WHOLLY TO THEIR GRIEF THEY ARE NO LONGER CONCERNED ABOUT ANY EARTHLY POSSESSION AND OFTEN GIVE AWAY ALL THAT THEY HAVE TO THE FIRST COMERS EVEN TO THEIR BEDS AND THEIR HOME. THE OLD TIME BURIAL OF THE PLAINS INDIANS WAS UPON A SCAFFOLD OF POLES OR A PLATFORM AMONG THE BOUGHS OF A TREE THEIR ONLY MEANS OF PLACING THE BODY OUT OF REACH OF WILD BEASTS AS THEY HAD NO IMPLEMENTS WITH WHICH TO DIG A SUITABLE GRAVE. IT WAS PREPARED BY DRESSING IN THE FINEST CLOTHES TOGETHER WITH SOME PERSONAL POSSESSIONS AND ORNAMENTS WRAPPED IN SEVERAL ROBES AND FINALLY IN A SECURE COVERING OF RAW HIDE. AS A SPECIAL MARK OF RESPECT THE BODY OF A YOUNG WOMAN OR A WARRIOR WAS SOMETIMES LAID OUT IN STATE IN A NEW TEEPEE WITH THE USUAL HOUSEHOLD ARTICLES AND EVEN WITH A DISH OF FOOD LEFT BESIDE IT NOT THAT THEY SUPPOSED THE SPIRIT COULD USE THE IMPLEMENTS OR EAT THE FOOD BUT MERELY AS A LAST TRIBUTE. THEN THE WHOLE PEOPLE WOULD BREAK CAMP AND DEPART TO A DISTANCE LEAVING THE DEAD ALONE IN AN HONORABLE SOLITUDE. THERE WAS NO PRESCRIBED CEREMONY OF BURIAL THOUGH THE BODY WAS CARRIED OUT WITH MORE OR LESS SOLEMNITY BY SELECTED YOUNG MEN AND SOMETIMES NOTED WARRIORS WERE THE PALL BEARERS OF A MAN OF DISTINCTION. IT WAS USUAL TO CHOOSE A PROMINENT HILL WITH A COMMANDING OUTLOOK FOR THE LAST RESTING PLACE OF OUR DEAD. IF A MAN WERE SLAIN IN BATTLE IT WAS AN OLD CUSTOM TO PLACE HIS BODY AGAINST A TREE OR ROCK IN A SITTING POSITION ALWAYS FACING THE ENEMY TO INDICATE HIS UNDAUNTED DEFIANCE AND BRAVERY EVEN IN DEATH. I RECALL A TOUCHING CUSTOM AMONG US WHICH WAS DESIGNED TO KEEP THE MEMORY OF THE DEPARTED NEAR AND WARM IN THE BEREAVED HOUSEHOLD. A LOCK OF HAIR OF THE BELOVED DEAD WAS WRAPPED IN PRETTY CLOTHING SUCH AS IT WAS SUPPOSED THAT HE OR SHE WOULD LIKE TO WEAR IF LIVING. AT EVERY MEAL TIME A DISH OF FOOD WAS PLACED UNDER IT AND SOME PERSON OF THE SAME SEX AND AGE AS THE ONE WHO WAS GONE MUST AFTERWARD BE INVITED IN TO PARTAKE OF THE FOOD. AT THE END OF A YEAR FROM THE TIME OF DEATH THE RELATIVES MADE A PUBLIC FEAST AND GAVE AWAY THE CLOTHING AND OTHER GIFTS WHILE THE LOCK OF HAIR WAS INTERRED WITH APPROPRIATE CEREMONIES. CERTAINLY THE INDIAN NEVER DOUBTED THE IMMORTAL NATURE OF THE SPIRIT OR SOUL OF MAN BUT NEITHER DID HE CARE TO SPECULATE UPON ITS PROBABLE STATE OR CONDITION IN A FUTURE LIFE. THE IDEA OF A HAPPY HUNTING GROUND IS MODERN AND PROBABLY BORROWED OR INVENTED BY THE WHITE MAN. THE PRIMITIVE INDIAN WAS CONTENT TO BELIEVE THAT THE SPIRIT WHICH THE GREAT MYSTERY BREATHED INTO MAN RETURNS TO HIM WHO GAVE IT AND THAT AFTER IT IS FREED FROM THE BODY IT IS EVERYWHERE AND PERVADES ALL NATURE YET OFTEN LINGERS NEAR THE GRAVE OR SPIRIT BUNDLE FOR THE CONSOLATION OF FRIENDS AND IS ABLE TO HEAR PRAYERS

+IT IS WELL KNOWN THAT THE AMERICAN INDIAN HAD SOMEHOW DEVELOPED OCCULT POWER AND ALTHOUGH IN THE LATTER DAYS THERE HAVE BEEN MANY IMPOSTORS AND ALLOWING FOR THE VANITY AND WEAKNESS OF HUMAN NATURE IT IS FAIR TO ASSUME THAT THERE MUST HAVE BEEN SOME EVEN IN THE OLD DAYS YET THERE ARE WELL ATTESTED INSTANCES OF REMARKABLE PROPHECIES AND OTHER MYSTIC PRACTICE. A SIOUX PROPHET PREDICTED THE COMING OF THE WHITE MAN FULLY FIFTY YEARS BEFORE THE EVENT AND EVEN DESCRIBED ACCURATELY HIS GARMENTS AND WEAPONS. BEFORE THE STEAMBOAT WAS INVENTED ANOTHER PROPHET OF OUR RACE DESCRIBED THE FIRE BOAT THAT WOULD SWIM UPON THEIR MIGHTY RIVER THE MISSISSIPPI AND THE DATE OF THIS PROPHECY IS ATTESTED BY THE TERM USED WHICH IS LONG SINCE OBSOLETE. NO DOUBT MANY PREDICTIONS HAVE BEEN COLORED TO SUIT THE NEW AGE AND UNQUESTIONABLY FALSE PROPHETS FAKIRS AND CONJURERS HAVE BECOME THE PEST OF THE TRIBES DURING THE TRANSITION PERIOD. NEVERTHELESS EVEN DURING THIS PERIOD THERE WAS HERE AND THERE A MAN OF THE OLD TYPE WHO WAS IMPLICITLY BELIEVED IN TO THE LAST. THERE WERE TO BE SEVEN BATTLES ALL SUCCESSFUL EXCEPT THE LAST IN WHICH THE SIOUX WERE TO BE TAKEN AT A DISADVANTAGE AND SUFFER CRUSHING DEFEAT. THIS WAS CARRIED OUT TO THE LETTER. OUR PEOPLE SURPRISED AND SLEW MANY OF THE OJIBWAYS IN THEIR VILLAGES BUT IN TURN WERE FOLLOWED AND CUNNINGLY LED INTO AN AMBUSH WHENCE BUT FEW CAME OUT ALIVE. THIS WAS ONLY ONE OF HIS REMARKABLE PROPHECIES. ANOTHER FAMOUS MEDICINE MAN WAS BORN ON THE RUM RIVER ABOUT ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY YEARS AGO AND LIVED TO BE OVER A CENTURY OLD. HE WAS BORN DURING A DESPERATE BATTLE WITH THE OJIBWAYS AT A MOMENT WHEN AS IT SEEMED THE BAND OF SIOUX ENGAGED WERE TO BE ANNIHILATED. THEREFORE THE CHILD'S GRANDMOTHER EXCLAIMED SINCE WE ARE ALL TO PERISH LET HIM DIE A WARRIOR'S DEATH IN THE FIELD AND SHE PLACED HIS CRADLE UNDER FIRE NEAR THE SPOT WHERE HIS UNCLE AND GRANDFATHERS WERE FIGHTING FOR HE HAD NO FATHER. BUT WHEN AN OLD MAN DISCOVERED THE NEW BORN CHILD HE COMMANDED THE WOMEN TO TAKE CARE OF HIM FOR SAID HE WE KNOW NOT HOW PRECIOUS THE STRENGTH OF EVEN ONE WARRIOR MAY SOME DAY BECOME TO HIS NATION. THIS CHILD LIVED TO BECOME GREAT AMONG US AS WAS INTIMATED TO THE SUPERSTITIOUS BY THE CIRCUMSTANCES OF HIS BIRTH. AT THE AGE OF ABOUT SEVENTY FIVE YEARS HE SAVED HIS BAND FROM UTTER DESTRUCTION AT THE HANDS OF THEIR ANCESTRAL ENEMIES BY SUDDENLY GIVING WARNING RECEIVED IN A DREAM OF THE APPROACH OF A LARGE WAR PARTY. FIVE YEARS LATER HE REPEATED THE SERVICE AND AGAIN SAVED HIS PEOPLE FROM AWFUL SLAUGHTER. THERE WAS NO CONFUSION OF FIGURES OR OMENS AS WITH LESSER MEDICINE MEN BUT IN EVERY INCIDENT THAT IS TOLD OF HIM HIS INTERPRETATION OF THE SIGN WHATEVER IT WAS PROVED SINGULARLY CORRECT. THE FATHER OF LITTLE CROW THE CHIEF WHO LED THE MINNESOTA MASSACRE OF EIGHTEEN SIXTY TWO WAS ANOTHER PROPHET OF SOME NOTE. ONE OF HIS CHARACTERISTIC PROPHECIES WAS MADE ONLY A FEW YEARS BEFORE HE DIED WHEN HE HAD DECLARED THAT ALTHOUGH ALREADY AN OLD MAN HE WOULD GO ONCE MORE UPON THE WAR PATH. THREE OF THE OJIBWAYS WERE INDEED SLAIN AS HE HAD SAID BUT IN THE BATTLE THE OLD WAR PROPHET LOST BOTH OF HIS TWO SONS. THERE ARE MANY TRUSTWORTHY MEN AND MEN OF CHRISTIAN FAITH TO VOUCH FOR THESE AND SIMILAR EVENTS OCCURRING AS FORETOLD. I CANNOT PRETEND TO EXPLAIN THEM BUT I KNOW THAT OUR PEOPLE POSSESSED REMARKABLE POWERS OF CONCENTRATION AND ABSTRACTION AND I SOMETIMES FANCY THAT SUCH NEARNESS TO NATURE AS I HAVE DESCRIBED KEEPS THE SPIRIT SENSITIVE TO IMPRESSIONS NOT COMMONLY FELT AND IN TOUCH WITH THE UNSEEN POWERS. SOME OF US SEEMED TO HAVE A PECULIAR INTUITION FOR THE LOCALITY OF A GRAVE WHICH THEY EXPLAINED BY SAYING THAT THEY HAD RECEIVED A COMMUNICATION FROM THE SPIRIT OF THE DEPARTED. MY OWN GRANDMOTHER WAS ONE OF THESE AND AS FAR BACK AS I CAN REMEMBER WHEN CAMPING IN A STRANGE COUNTRY MY BROTHER AND I WOULD SEARCH FOR AND FIND HUMAN BONES AT THE SPOT SHE HAD INDICATED TO US AS AN ANCIENT BURIAL PLACE OR THE SPOT WHERE A LONE WARRIOR HAD FALLEN. OF COURSE THE OUTWARD SIGNS OF BURIAL HAD BEEN LONG SINCE OBLITERATED

+THE SCOTCH WOULD CERTAINLY HAVE DECLARED THAT SHE HAD THE SECOND SIGHT FOR SHE HAD OTHER REMARKABLE PREMONITIONS OR INTUITIONS WITHIN MY OWN RECOLLECTION. I HAVE HEARD HER SPEAK OF A PECULIAR SENSATION IN THE BREAST BY WHICH AS SHE SAID SHE WAS ADVISED OF ANYTHING OF IMPORTANCE CONCERNING HER ABSENT CHILDREN. OTHER NATIVE WOMEN HAVE CLAIMED A SIMILAR MONITOR BUT I NEVER HEARD OF ONE WHO COULD INTERPRET IT WITH SUCH ACCURACY. ALTHOUGH WE HAD NO OTHER REASON TO DOUBT THE ILL TIDINGS IT IS A FACT THAT MY UNCLE CAME INTO CAMP TWO DAYS AFTER HIS REPORTED DEATH. AT ANOTHER TIME WHEN I WAS FOURTEEN YEARS OLD WE HAD JUST LEFT FORT ELLIS ON THE ASSINIBOINE RIVER AND MY YOUNGEST UNCLE HAD SELECTED A FINE SPOT FOR OUR NIGHT CAMP. SO WE RELUCTANTLY WENT ON DOWN THE RIVER AND CAMPED AFTER DARK AT A SECLUDED PLACE. THE NEXT DAY WE LEARNED THAT A FAMILY WHO WERE FOLLOWING CLOSE BEHIND HAD STOPPED AT THE PLACE FIRST SELECTED BY MY UNCLE BUT WERE SURPRISED IN THE NIGHT BY A ROVING WAR PARTY AND MASSACRED TO A MAN. THIS INCIDENT MADE A GREAT IMPRESSION UPON OUR PEOPLE. MANY OF THE INDIANS BELIEVED THAT ONE MAY BE BORN MORE THAN ONCE AND THERE WERE SOME WHO CLAIMED TO HAVE FULL KNOWLEDGE OF A FORMER INCARNATION. THERE WERE ALSO THOSE WHO HELD CONVERSE WITH A TWIN SPIRIT WHO HAD BEEN BORN INTO ANOTHER TRIBE OR RACE. THERE WAS A WELL KNOWN SIOUX WAR PROPHET WHO LIVED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE LAST CENTURY SO THAT HE IS STILL REMEMBERED BY THE OLD MEN OF HIS BAND. AFTER HE HAD REACHED MIDDLE AGE HE DECLARED THAT HE HAD A SPIRIT BROTHER AMONG THE OJIBWAYS THE ANCESTRAL ENEMIES OF THE SIOUX. UPON ONE OF THEIR HUNTS ALONG THE BORDER BETWEEN THE TWO TRIBES THE SIOUX LEADER ONE EVENING CALLED HIS WARRIORS TOGETHER AND SOLEMNLY DECLARED TO THEM THAT THEY WERE ABOUT TO MEET A LIKE BAND OF OJIBWAY HUNTERS LED BY HIS SPIRIT TWIN. YOU WILL KNOW HIM AT ONCE THE PROPHET SAID TO THEM FOR HE WILL NOT ONLY LOOK LIKE ME IN FACE AND FORM BUT HE WILL DISPLAY THE SAME TOTEM AND EVEN SING MY WAR SONGS. THEY SENT OUT SCOUTS WHO SOON RETURNED WITH NEWS OF THE APPROACHING PARTY

+SHILOH. THIS WAS THE FIRST BIG BATTLE IN WHICH OUR REGIMENT HAD EVER BEEN ENGAGED. I DO NOT PRETEND TO TELL OF WHAT COMMAND DISTINGUISHED ITSELF OF HEROES OF BLOOD AND WOUNDS OF SHRIEKS AND GROANS OF BRILLIANT CHARGES OF CANNON CAPTURED ET CETERA. CLOSE UP GUIDE RIGHT HALT FORWARD RIGHT OBLIQUE LEFT OBLIQUE HALT FORWARD GUIDE CENTER EYES RIGHT DRESS UP PROMPTLY IN THE REAR STEADY DOUBLE QUICK CHARGE BAYONETS FIRE AT WILL IS ABOUT ALL THAT A PRIVATE SOLDIER EVER KNOWS OF A BATTLE. BUT I NEVERTHELESS REMEMBER MANY THINGS THAT CAME UNDER MY OBSERVATION IN THIS BATTLE. OUR REGIMENT WAS THE ADVANCE GUARD ON SATURDAY EVENING AND DID A LITTLE SKIRMISHING BUT GENERAL GLADDEN'S BRIGADE PASSED US AND ASSUMED A POSITION IN OUR IMMEDIATE FRONT. ABOUT DAYLIGHT ON SUNDAY MORNING CHALMERS BRIGADE RELIEVED GLADDEN'S. AS GLADDEN RODE BY US A COURIER RODE UP AND TOLD HIM SOMETHING. I DO NOT KNOW WHAT IT WAS BUT I HEARD GLADDEN SAY TELL GENERAL BRAGG THAT I HAVE AS KEEN A SCENT FOR YANKEES AS GENERAL CHALMERS HAS. ON SUNDAY MORNING A CLEAR BEAUTIFUL AND STILL DAY THE ORDER WAS GIVEN FOR THE WHOLE ARMY TO ADVANCE AND TO ATTACK IMMEDIATELY. WE WERE SUPPORTING AN ALABAMA BRIGADE. THE AIR WAS FULL OF BALLS AND DEADLY MISSILES. THE LITTER CORPS WAS CARRYING OFF THE DYING AND WOUNDED. WE COULD HEAR THE SHOUT OF THE CHARGE AND THE INCESSANT ROAR OF THE GUNS THE RATTLE OF THE MUSKETRY AND KNEW THAT THE CONTENDING FORCES WERE ENGAGED IN A BREAST TO BREAST STRUGGLE. BUT CHEERING NEWS CONTINUED TO COME BACK. EVERY ONE WHO PASSED WOULD BE HAILED WITH WELL WHAT NEWS FROM THE FRONT. WELL BOYS WE ARE DRIVING EM. AS WE WERE ADVANCING TO THE ATTACK AND TO SUPPORT THE ALABAMA BRIGADE IN OUR FRONT AND WHICH HAD GIVEN WAY AND WERE STRICKEN WITH FEAR SOME OF THE BOYS OF OUR REGIMENT WOULD LAUGH AT THEM AND ASK WHAT THEY WERE RUNNING FOR AND WOULD COMMENCE TO SAY FLICKER FLICKER FLICKER. LIKE THE BIRD CALLED THE YELLOWHAMMER FLICKER FLICKER FLICKER. AS WE ADVANCED ON THE EDGE OF THE BATTLEFIELD WE SAW A BIG FAT COLONEL OF THE TWENTY THIRD TENNESSEE REGIMENT BADLY WOUNDED WHOSE NAME IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY WAS MATT MARTIN. HE SAID TO US GIVE EM GOSS BOYS. THAT'S RIGHT MY BRAVE FIRST TENNESSEE GIVE EM HAIL COLUMBIA. WE HALTED BUT A MOMENT AND SAID I COLONEL WHERE ARE YOU WOUNDED. HE ANSWERED IN A DEEP BASS VOICE MY SON I AM WOUNDED IN THE ARM IN THE LEG IN THE HEAD IN THE BODY AND IN ANOTHER PLACE WHICH I HAVE A DELICACY IN MENTIONING. THAT IS WHAT THE GALLANT OLD COLONEL SAID. ADVANCING A LITTLE FURTHER ON WE SAW GENERAL ALBERT SIDNEY JOHNSON SURROUNDED BY HIS STAFF AND GOVERNOR HARRIS OF TENNESSEE. THE FACT WAS KEPT FROM THE TROOPS. ABOUT NOON A COURIER DASHED UP AND ORDERED US TO GO FORWARD AND SUPPORT GENERAL BRAGG'S CENTER. WE HAD TO PASS OVER THE GROUND WHERE TROOPS HAD BEEN FIGHTING ALL DAY. I HAD HEARD AND READ OF BATTLEFIELDS SEEN PICTURES OF BATTLEFIELDS OF HORSES AND MEN OF CANNON AND WAGONS ALL JUMBLED TOGETHER WHILE THE GROUND WAS STREWN WITH DEAD AND DYING AND WOUNDED BUT I MUST CONFESS THAT I NEVER REALIZED THE POMP AND CIRCUMSTANCE OF THE THING CALLED GLORIOUS WAR UNTIL I SAW THIS. IT ALL SEEMED TO ME A DREAM I SEEMED TO BE IN A SORT OF HAZE WHEN SIZ SIZ SIZ THE MINNIE BALLS FROM THE YANKEE LINE BEGAN TO WHISTLE AROUND OUR EARS AND I THOUGHT OF THE IRISHMAN WHEN HE SAID SURE ENOUGH THOSE FELLOWS ARE SHOOTING BULLETS. DOWN WOULD DROP FIRST ONE FELLOW AND THEN ANOTHER EITHER KILLED OR WOUNDED WHEN WE WERE ORDERED TO CHARGE BAYONETS. I HAD BEEN FEELING MEAN ALL THE MORNING AS IF I HAD STOLEN A SHEEP BUT WHEN THE ORDER TO CHARGE WAS GIVEN I GOT HAPPY. I SHOUTED IT WAS FUN THEN. EVERYBODY LOOKED HAPPY WE WERE CROWDING THEM. ONE MORE CHARGE THEN THEIR LINES WAVER AND BREAK. THEY RETREAT IN WILD CONFUSION

+WE WERE JUBILANT WE WERE TRIUMPHANT. OFFICERS COULD NOT CURB THE MEN TO KEEP IN LINE. DISCHARGE AFTER DISCHARGE WAS POURED INTO THE RETREATING LINE. THE FEDERAL DEAD AND WOUNDED COVERED THE GROUND. WHEN IN THE VERY MIDST OF OUR VICTORY HERE COMES AN ORDER TO HALT WHAT. HALT AFTER TODAY'S VICTORY. SIDNEY JOHNSON KILLED GENERAL GLADDEN KILLED AND A HOST OF GENERALS AND OTHER BRAVE MEN KILLED AND THE WHOLE YANKEE ARMY IN FULL RETREAT. THE VICTORY WAS COMPLETE BUT THE WORD HALT TURNED VICTORY INTO DEFEAT. THE SOLDIERS HAD PASSED THROUGH THE YANKEE CAMPS AND SAW ALL THE GOOD THINGS THAT THEY HAD TO EAT IN THEIR SUTLERS STORES AND OFFICERS MARQUEES AND IT WAS BUT A SHORT TIME BEFORE EVERY SOLDIER WAS RUMMAGING TO SEE WHAT HE COULD FIND. THE HARVEST WAS GREAT AND THE LABORERS WERE NOT FEW. GREENBACKS WERE PLENTIFUL GOOD CLOTHES WERE PLENTIFUL RATIONS WERE NOT IN DEMAND THE BOYS WERE IN CLOVER. THIS WAS SUNDAY. ON MONDAY THE TIDE WAS REVERSED. FLUSHED WITH THEIR VICTORIES AT FORT HENRY AND FORT DONELSON AND THE CAPTURE OF NASHVILLE AND THE WHOLE STATE OF TENNESSEE HAVING FALLEN INTO THEIR HANDS VICTORY WAS AGAIN TO PERCH UPON THEIR BANNERS FOR BUELL'S ARMY BY FORCED MARCHES HAD COME TO GRANT'S ASSISTANCE AT THE ELEVENTH HOUR. GUNBOATS AND TRANSPORTS WERE BUSILY CROSSING BUELL'S ARMY ALL OF SUNDAY NIGHT. WE COULD HEAR THEIR BOATS RINGING THEIR BELLS AND HEAR THE PUFF OF SMOKE AND STEAM FROM THEIR BOILERS. OUR REGIMENT WAS THE ADVANCE OUTPOST AND WE SAW THE SKIRMISH LINE OF THE FEDERALS ADVANCING AND THEN THEIR MAIN LINE AND THEN THEIR ARTILLERY. WE MADE A GOOD FIGHT ON MONDAY MORNING AND I WAS TAKEN BY SURPRISE WHEN THE ORDER CAME FOR US TO RETREAT INSTEAD OF ADVANCE. BUT AS I SAID BEFORE READER A PRIVATE SOLDIER IS BUT AN AUTOMATON AND KNOWS NOTHING OF WHAT IS GOING ON AMONG THE GENERALS AND I AM ONLY GIVING THE CHRONICLES OF LITTLE THINGS AND EVENTS THAT CAME UNDER MY OWN OBSERVATION AS I SAW THEM THEN AND REMEMBER THEM NOW. SHOULD YOU DESIRE TO FIND OUT MORE ABOUT THE BATTLE I REFER YOU TO HISTORY. ONE INCIDENT I RECOLLECT VERY WELL. A YANKEE COLONEL RIDING A FINE GRAY MARE WAS SITTING ON HIS HORSE LOOKING AT OUR ADVANCE AS IF WE WERE ON REVIEW. W H RUSHED FORWARD AND GRABBED HIS HORSE BY THE BRIDLE TELLING HIM AT THE SAME TIME TO SURRENDER. ABOUT THE TIME HE PULLED TRIGGER A STRAY BALL FROM SOME DIRECTION STRUCK HIM IN THE SIDE AND HE FELL OFF DEAD AND HIS HORSE BECOMING FRIGHTENED GALLOPED OFF DRAGGING HIM THROUGH THE CONFEDERATE LINES. HIS PISTOL HAD MISSED ITS AIM. I HAVE HEARD HUNDREDS OF OLD SOLDIERS TELL OF THE AMOUNT OF GREENBACK MONEY THEY SAW AND PICKED UP ON THE BATTLEFIELD OF SHILOH BUT THEY THOUGHT IT VALUELESS AND DID NOT TROUBLE THEMSELVES WITH BRINGING IT OFF WITH THEM. HE BEGAN TO SEESAW THE MULE AND GRIT HIS TEETH AND FINALLY YELLED OUT IT ARN'T ME BOYS IT'S THIS BLARSTED OLD MULE WHOA WHOA. ON MONDAY MORNING I TOO CAPTURED ME A MULE. HE WAS NOT A FAST MULE AND I SOON FOUND OUT THAT HE THOUGHT HE KNEW AS MUCH AS I DID. HE WAS WISE IN HIS OWN CONCEIT. HE HAD A PROPENSITY TO TAKE EVERY HOG PATH HE CAME TO. IF BLOOD MAKES SPEED I DO NOT SUPPOSE HE HAD A DROP OF ANY KIND IN HIM. IF I WANTED HIM TO GO ON ONE SIDE OF THE ROAD HE WAS SURE TO BE POSSESSED OF AN EQUAL DESIRE TO GO ON THE OTHER SIDE. I GOT A BIG HICKORY AND WOULD FRAIL HIM OVER THE HEAD AND HE WOULD ONLY SHAKE HIS HEAD AND FLOP HIS EARS AND SEEM TO SAY WELL NOW YOU THINK YOU ARE SMART DON'T YOU. I FREQUENTLY THOUGHT IT WOULD BE PLEASANT TO SPLIT THE DIFFERENCE WITH THAT MULE AND I WOULD GLADLY HAVE DONE SO IF I COULD HAVE GOTTEN ONE HALF OF HIS NO. MULE DID NOT DESIRE TO CROSS WHILE I WAS TRYING TO PERSUADE HIM WITH A BIG STICK A ROCK IN HIS EAR AND A TWISTER ON HIS NOSE. THE CAISSON OF A BATTERY WAS ABOUT TO CROSS. THE DRIVER SAID I'LL TAKE YOUR MULE OVER FOR YOU

+SO HE GOT A LARGE TWO INCH ROPE TIED ONE END AROUND THE MULE'S NECK AND THE OTHER TO THE CAISSON AND ORDERED THE DRIVER TO WHIP UP. THE MULE WAS LOATH TO TAKE TO THE WATER. HE WAS NO BAPTIST AND DID NOT BELIEVE IN IMMERSION AND HAD HIS VIEWS ABOUT CROSSING STREAMS BUT THE ROPE BEGAN TO TIGHTEN THE MULE TO SQUEAL OUT HIS PROTESTATIONS AGAINST SUCH VILLAINOUS PROCEEDINGS. THE ROPE HOWEVER WAS STRONGER THAN THE MULE'S NO AND HE WAS FINALLY PREVAILED UPON BY THE STRENGTH OF THE ROPE TO CROSS THE CREEK. ON MY TAKING THE ROPE OFF HE SHOOK HIMSELF AND SEEMED TO SAY YOU THINK THAT YOU ARE MIGHTY SMART FOLKS BUT YOU ARE A LEETLE TOO SMART. I GAVE IT UP THAT THAT MULE'S NO WAS A LITTLE STRONGER THAN MY DETERMINATION. HE SEEMED TO BE IN DEEP MEDITATION

+WE CAME FROM KNOXVILLE TO CHATTANOOGA AND SEEMED DESTINED TO MAKE A PERMANENT STAY HERE. WE REMAINED SEVERAL MONTHS BUT SOON WE WERE ON THE TRAMP AGAIN. FROM CHATTANOOGA BRAGG'S ARMY WENT TO MURFREESBORO. THE FEDERAL ARMY WAS CONCENTRATING AT NASHVILLE THERE WAS NO REST FOR THE WEARY. MARCHES AND BATTLES WERE THE ORDER OF THE DAY. OUR ARMY STOPPED AT MURFREESBORO. OUR ADVANCED OUTPOST WAS ESTABLISHED AT LAVERGNE. FROM TIME TO TIME DIFFERENT REGIMENTS WERE SENT FORWARD TO DO PICKET DUTY. I WAS ON PICKET AT THE TIME THE ADVANCE WAS MADE BY ROSECRANS. AT THE TIME MENTIONED I WAS STANDING ABOUT TWO HUNDRED YARDS OFF THE ROAD THE MAIN BODY OF THE PICKETS BEING ON THE NASHVILLE AND MURFREESBORO TURNPIKE AND COMMANDED BY LIEUTENANT HARDY MURFREE OF THE RUTHERFORD RIFLES. I HAD ORDERS TO ALLOW NO ONE TO PASS. IN FACT NO ONE WAS EXPECTED TO PASS AT THIS POINT BUT WHILE STANDING AT MY POST A HORSEMAN RODE UP BEHIND ME. I HALTED HIM AND TOLD HIM TO GO DOWN TO THE MAIN PICKET ON THE ROAD AND PASS BUT HE SEEMED SO SMILING THAT I THOUGHT HE KNEW ME OR HAD A GOOD JOKE TO TELL ME. HE ADVANCED UP AND PULLING A PIECE OF PAPER OUT OF HIS POCKET HANDED IT TO ME TO READ. IT WAS AN ORDER FROM GENERAL LEONIDAS POLK TO ALLOW THE BEARER TO PASS. I READ IT AND LOOKED UP TO HAND IT BACK TO HIM WHEN I DISCOVERED THAT HE HAD A PISTOL COCKED AND LEVELED IN MY FACE AND SAYS HE DROP THAT GUN YOU ARE MY PRISONER. I DID NOT WISH TO SPEND MY WINTER IN A NORTHERN PRISON AND WHAT WAS WORSE I WOULD BE CALLED A DESERTER FROM MY POST OF DUTY. THE YANKEE PICKET LINES WERE NOT A HALF MILE OFF. I WAS PERFECTLY WILLING TO LET THE SPY GO ON HIS WAY REJOICING FOR SUCH HE WAS BUT HE WANTED TO CAPTURE A REBEL. AND I HAD MADE UP MY MIND TO THINK LIKEWISE. THERE I WAS A PRISONER SURE AND NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT. HIS PISTOL WAS LEVELED AND I WAS ORDERED TO MARCH. I WAS AFRAID TO HALLOO TO THE RELIEF AND YOU MAY BE SURE I WAS IN A BAD FIX. FINALLY SAYS I LET'S PLAY QUITS. I THINK YOU ARE A SOLDIER YOU LOOK LIKE A GENTLEMAN. I AM A VIDET YOU KNOW THE RESPONSIBILITY RESTING ON ME. YOU GO YOUR WAY AND LEAVE ME HERE IS IT A BARGAIN. SAYS HE I WOULD NOT TRUST A SECESH ON HIS WORD OATH OR BOND MARCH I SAY. I SOON FOUND OUT THAT HE HAD CAUGHT SIGHT OF THE RELIEF ON THE ROAD AND WAS AFRAID TO SHOOT I QUICKLY MADE UP MY MIND. MY GUN WAS AT MY FEET AND ONE STEP WOULD GET IT. I MADE A QUICK GLANCE OVER MY SHOULDER AND GRABBED AT MY GUN. HE DIVINED MY MOTIVE AND FIRED THE BALL MISSED ITS AIM. HE PUT SPURS TO HIS HORSE BUT I PULLED DOWN ON HIM AND ALMOST TORE THE FORE SHOULDER OF HIS HORSE ENTIRELY OFF BUT I DID NOT CAPTURE THE SPY THOUGH I CAPTURED THE HORSE BRIDLE AND SADDLE. MAJOR ALLEN OF THE TWENTY SEVENTH TENNESSEE REGIMENT TOOK THE SADDLE AND BRIDLE AND GAVE ME THE BLANKET. BUT THEY CONTINUED TO ADVANCE UPON US WE FIRING AND RETREATING SLOWLY. WE HAD SEVERAL PRETTY SHARP BRUSHES WITH THEM THAT DAY. I THINK WE MUST HAVE KILLED A GOOD MANY IN THE OLD FIELD BECAUSE WE WERE FIRING ALL THE TIME AT THE SOLID LINE AS THEY ADVANCED UPON US. BATTLE OF MURFREESBORO. THE NEXT DAY THE YANKEES WERE FOUND OUT TO BE ADVANCING. SOON THEY CAME IN SIGHT OF OUR PICKET. WE KEPT FALLING BACK AND FIRING ALL DAY AND WERE RELIEVED BY ANOTHER REGIMENT ABOUT DARK WE REJOINED OUR REGIMENT. LINE OF BATTLE WAS FORMED ON THE NORTH BANK OF STONE'S RIVER ON THE YANKEE SIDE. BAD GENERALSHIP I THOUGHT IT WAS CHRISTMAS. JOHN BARLEYCORN WAS GENERAL IN CHIEF. OUR GENERALS AND COLONELS AND CAPTAINS HAD KISSED JOHN A LITTLE TOO OFTEN THEY COULDN'T SEE STRAIGHT. IT WAS SAID TO BE BUCKEYE WHISKY. THEY COULDN'T TELL OUR OWN MEN FROM YANKEES. THE PRIVATE COULD BUT HE WAS NO GENERAL YOU SEE. BUT HERE THEY WERE THE YANKEES A BATTLE HAD TO BE FOUGHT. WE WERE ORDERED FORWARD I WAS ON THE SKIRMISH LINE

+WE MARCHED PLUMB INTO THE YANKEE LINES WITH THEIR FLAGS FLYING. I CALLED LIEUTENANT COLONEL FRIERSON'S ATTENTION TO THE YANKEES AND HE REMARKED WELL I DON'T KNOW WHETHER THEY ARE YANKEES OR NOT BUT IF THEY ARE THEY WILL COME OUT OF THERE MIGHTY QUICK. THE YANKEES MARCHED OVER THE HILL OUT OF SIGHT. WE WERE ORDERED FORWARD TO THE ATTACK. WE WERE RIGHT UPON THE YANKEE LINE ON THE WILKERSON TURNPIKE. THE YANKEES WERE SHOOTING OUR MEN DOWN BY SCORES. A UNIVERSAL CRY WAS RAISED YOU ARE FIRING ON YOUR OWN MEN. CEASE FIRING CEASE FIRING I HALLOOED IN FACT THE WHOLE SKIRMISH LINE HALLOOED AND KEPT ON TELLING THEM THAT THEY WERE YANKEES AND TO SHOOT BUT THE ORDER WAS TO CEASE FIRING YOU ARE FIRING ON YOUR OWN MEN. CAPTAIN JAMES OF CHEATHAM'S STAFF WAS SENT FORWARD AND KILLED IN HIS OWN YARD. WE WERE NOT TWENTY YARDS OFF FROM THE YANKEES AND THEY WERE POURING THE HOT SHOT AND SHELLS RIGHT INTO OUR RANKS AND EVERY MAN WAS YELLING AT THE TOP OF HIS VOICE CEASE FIRING YOU ARE FIRING ON YOUR OWN MEN CEASE FIRING YOU ARE FIRING ON YOUR OWN MEN. OAKLEY COLOR BEARER OF THE FOURTH TENNESSEE REGIMENT RAN RIGHT UP IN THE MIDST OF THE YANKEE LINE WITH HIS COLORS BEGGING HIS MEN TO FOLLOW. THE LEADEN HAIL STORM SWEPT THEM OFF THE FIELD THEY FELL BACK AND RE FORMED. I SAW EITHER VICTORY OR DEATH WRITTEN ON HIS FACE. WE WERE AT THAT TIME AT LEAST A HUNDRED YARDS IN ADVANCE OF THE BRIGADE CHEATHAM ALL THE TIME CALLING UPON THE MEN TO COME ON. HE WAS LEADING THE CHARGE IN PERSON. I SAW AND FELT THAT HE WAS NOT FIGHTING FOR GLORY BUT THAT HE WAS FIGHTING FOR HIS COUNTRY BECAUSE HE LOVED THAT COUNTRY AND HE WAS WILLING TO GIVE HIS LIFE FOR HIS COUNTRY AND THE SUCCESS OF OUR CAUSE. HE DESERVES A WREATH OF IMMORTALITY AND A WARM PLACE IN EVERY SOUTHRON'S HEART FOR HIS BRAVE AND GLORIOUS EXAMPLE ON THAT BLOODY BATTLEFIELD OF MURFREESBORO. NOW ANOTHER FACT I WILL STATE AND THAT IS WHEN THE PRIVATE SOLDIER WAS ORDERED TO CHARGE AND CAPTURE THE TWELVE PIECES OF ARTILLERY HEAVILY SUPPORTED BY INFANTRY MANEY'S BRIGADE RAISED A WHOOP AND YELL AND SWOOPED DOWN ON THOSE YANKEES LIKE A WHIRL A GUST OF WOODPECKERS IN A HAIL STORM PAYING THE BLUE COATED RASCALS BACK WITH COMPOUND INTEREST FOR WHEN THEY DID COME EVERY MAN'S GUN WAS LOADED AND THEY MARCHED UPON THE BLAZING CREST IN SOLID FILE AND WHEN THEY DID FIRE THERE WAS A SUDDEN LULL IN THE STORM OF BATTLE BECAUSE THE YANKEES WERE NEARLY ALL KILLED. I CANNOT REMEMBER NOW OF EVER SEEING MORE DEAD MEN AND HORSES AND CAPTURED CANNON ALL JUMBLED TOGETHER THAN THAT SCENE OF BLOOD AND CARNAGE AND BATTLE ON THE WILKERSON TURNPIKE. THE GROUND WAS LITERALLY COVERED WITH BLUE COATS DEAD AND IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY THERE WERE EIGHTY DEAD HORSES. BY THIS TIME OUR COMMAND HAD RE FORMED AND CHARGED THE BLAZING CREST THE SPECTACLE WAS GRAND. WITH CHEERS AND SHOUTS THEY CHARGED UP THE HILL SHOOTING DOWN AND BAYONETING THE FLYING CANNONEERS GENERAL CHEATHAM COLONEL FIELD AND JOE LEE CUTTING AND SLASHING WITH THEIR SWORDS THE VICTORY WAS COMPLETE. THE WHOLE LEFT WING OF THE FEDERAL ARMY WAS DRIVEN BACK FIVE MILES FROM THEIR ORIGINAL POSITION. THEIR DEAD AND WOUNDED WERE IN OUR LINES AND WE HAD CAPTURED MANY PIECES OF ARTILLERY SMALL ARMS AND PRISONERS. WHEN I WAS WOUNDED THE SHELL AND SHOT THAT STRUCK ME KNOCKED ME WINDING. I SAID O O I'M WOUNDED AND AT THE SAME TIME I GRABBED MY ARM. I THOUGHT IT HAD BEEN TORN FROM MY SHOULDER. THE BRIGADE HAD FALLEN BACK ABOUT TWO HUNDRED YARDS WHEN GENERAL CHEATHAM'S PRESENCE REASSURED THEM AND THEY SOON WERE IN LINE AND READY TO FOLLOW SO BRAVE AND GALLANT A LEADER AND HAD THAT ORDER OF CEASE FIRING YOU ARE FIRING ON YOUR OWN MEN NOT BEEN GIVEN MANEY'S BRIGADE WOULD HAVE HAD THE HONOR OF CAPTURING EIGHTEEN PIECES OF ARTILLERY AND TEN THOUSAND PRISONERS. THIS I DO KNOW TO BE A FACT. AS I WENT BACK TO THE FIELD HOSPITAL I OVERTOOK ANOTHER MAN WALKING ALONG. I DO NOT KNOW TO WHAT REGIMENT HE BELONGED BUT I REMEMBER OF FIRST NOTICING THAT HIS LEFT ARM WAS ENTIRELY GONE. HIS FACE WAS AS WHITE AS A SHEET

+THE BREAST AND SLEEVE OF HIS COAT HAD BEEN TORN AWAY AND I COULD SEE THE FRAZZLED END OF HIS SHIRT SLEEVE WHICH APPEARED TO BE SUCKED INTO THE WOUND. I LOOKED AT IT PRETTY CLOSE AND I SAID GREAT GOD. FOR I COULD SEE HIS HEART THROB AND THE RESPIRATION OF HIS LUNGS. I WAS FILLED WITH WONDER AND HORROR AT THE SIGHT. HE WAS WALKING ALONG WHEN ALL AT ONCE HE DROPPED DOWN AND DIED WITHOUT A STRUGGLE OR A GROAN. I COULD TELL OF HUNDREDS OF SUCH INCIDENTS OF THE BATTLEFIELD BUT TELL ONLY THIS ONE BECAUSE I REMEMBER IT SO DISTINCTLY. ROBBING A DEAD YANKEE. IN PASSING OVER THE BATTLEFIELD I CAME ACROSS A DEAD YANKEE COLONEL. HE HAD ON THE FINEST CLOTHES I EVER SAW A RED SASH AND FINE SWORD. I PARTICULARLY NOTICED HIS BOOTS I NEEDED THEM AND HAD MADE UP MY MIND TO WEAR THEM OUT FOR HIM. BUT I COULD NOT BEAR THE THOUGHT OF WEARING DEAD MEN'S SHOES. I TOOK HOLD OF THE FOOT AND RAISED IT UP AND MADE ONE TRIAL AT THE BOOT TO GET IT OFF. HE WAS STONE DEAD BUT I DROPPED THAT FOOT QUICK. IT WAS MY FIRST AND LAST ATTEMPT TO ROB A DEAD YANKEE. AFTER THE BATTLE WAS OVER AT MURFREESBORO THAT NIGHT JOHN TUCKER AND MYSELF THOUGHT THAT WE WOULD INVESTIGATE THE CONTENTS OF A FINE BRICK MANSION IN OUR IMMEDIATE FRONT BUT BETWEEN OUR LINES AND THE YANKEES AND EVEN IN ADVANCE OF OUR VIDETS. BEFORE WE ARRIVED AT THE HOUSE WE SAW A BODY OF YANKEES APPROACHING AND AS WE STARTED TO RUN BACK THEY FIRED UPON US. OUR PICKETS HAD RUN IN AND REPORTED A NIGHT ATTACK. WE RAN FORWARD EXPECTING THAT OUR MEN WOULD RECOGNIZE US BUT THEY OPENED FIRE UPON US I NEVER WAS AS BAD SCARED IN ALL MY WHOLE LIFE AND IF ANY POOR DEVIL EVER PRAYED WITH FERVENCY AND TRUE PIETY I DID IT ON THAT OCCASION. I THOUGHT I AM BETWEEN TWO FIRES

+ADVANCE INTO TENNESSEE. AFTER REMAINING A GOOD LONG TIME AT JONESBORO THE NEWS CAME THAT WE WERE GOING TO FLANK ATLANTA. YANK SAYS WHAT YOU DOING JOHNNY. JOHNNY SAYS WE ARE FLANKING. YANK SAYS BULLY FOR YOU. WE PASSED AROUND ATLANTA CROSSED THE CHATTAHOOCHEE AND TRAVELED BACK OVER THE SAME ROUTE ON WHICH WE HAD MADE THE ARDUOUS CAMPAIGN UNDER JOE JOHNSTON. IT TOOK US FOUR MONTHS IN THE FIRST INSTANCE AND BUT LITTLE LONGER THAN AS MANY DAYS IN THE SECOND TO GET BACK TO DALTON OUR STARTING POINT. ON OUR WAY UP THERE THE YANKEE CAVALRY FOLLOWED US TO SEE HOW WE WERE GETTING ALONG WITH THE FLANKING BUSINESS. WE HAD PONTOONS MADE FOR THE PURPOSE OF CROSSING STREAMS. WHEN WE WOULD GET TO A STREAM THE PONTOONS WOULD BE THROWN ACROSS AND HOOD'S ARMY WOULD CROSS. YANK WOULD HALLOO OVER AND SAY WELL JOHNNY HAVE YOU GOT EVERYTHING ACROSS. YES WOULD BE THE ANSWER. WE PASSED ALL THOSE GLORIOUS BATTLEFIELDS THAT HAVE BEEN MADE CLASSIC IN HISTORY FREQUENTLY COMING ACROSS THE SKULL OF SOME POOR FELLOW SITTING ON TOP OF A STUMP GRINNING A GHASTLY SMILE ALSO THE BONES OF HORSES ALONG THE ROAD AND FENCES BURNED AND DESTROYED AND OCCASIONALLY THE CHARRED REMAINS OF A ONCE FINE DWELLING HOUSE. OUTSIDE OF THESE OCCASIONAL REMINDERS WE COULD SEE NO EVIDENCE OF THE DESOLATION OF THE TRACK OF AN INVADING ARMY. THE COUNTRY LOOKED LIKE IT DID AT FIRST. CITIZENS CAME OUT AND SEEMED GLAD TO SEE US AND WOULD DIVIDE THEIR ONIONS GARLIC AND LEEK WITH US. THE SOLDIERS WERE IN GOOD SPIRITS BUT IT WAS THE SPIRIT OF INNOCENCE AND PEACE NOT WAR AND VICTORY. WHERE THE RAILROADS WOULD CROSS A RIVER A BLOCK HOUSE HAD BEEN ERECTED AND THE BRIDGE WAS GUARDED BY A COMPANY OF FEDERALS. BUT WE ALWAYS FLANKED THESE LITTLE AFFAIRS. WE WANTED BIGGER AND BETTER MEAT. WE CAPTURE DALTON. WE SAW THE UNITED STATES FLAG FLYING FROM THE RAMPARTS AND THOUGHT THAT YANK WOULD PROBABLY BE ASLEEP OR CATCHING LICE OR MAYBE ENGAGED IN A GAME OF SEVEN UP. SO WE SENT FORWARD A PHYSICIAN WITH SOME WHITE BANDAGES TIED TO THE END OF A LONG POLE. HE WALKED UP AND SAYS HELLO BOYS WHAT IS IT BOSS. WELL BOYS WE'VE COME FOR YOU. THE PLACE WAS GUARDED BY NEGRO TROOPS. WE MARCHED THE BLACK RASCALS OUT. THEY WERE MIGHTY GLAD TO SEE US AND WE WERE KINDLY DISPOSED TO THEM. A YANKEE ALWAYS SAYS NAGER. BUT THERE WERE SOME YANKEE SOLDIERS IN A BLOCK HOUSE AT RINGGOLD GAP WHO THOUGHT THEY WOULD ACT BIG. THEY SAID THAT SHERMAN HAD TOLD THEM NOT TO COME OUT OF THAT BLOCK HOUSE ANY HOW. BUT GENERAL WILLIAM B BATE BEGUN TO PERSUADE THE GENTLEMEN BY SENDING A FEW FOUR POUND PARROT FEELERS. AH THOSE FEELERS. THEY PERSUADED ELOQUENTLY. THEY PERSUADED EFFECTUALLY THOSE FEELERS DID. THE OLD PLACE LOOKED NATURAL LIKE ONLY IT SEEMED TO HAVE A SORT OF GRAVEYARD LONELINESS ABOUT IT. A MAN IN THE WELL. ON LEAVING DALTON AFTER A DAY'S MARCH WE HAD STOPPED FOR THE NIGHT. OUR GUNS WERE STACKED AND I STARTED OFF WITH A COMRADE TO GET SOME WOOD TO COOK SUPPER WITH. WE WERE WALKING ALONG HE A LITTLE IN THE REAR WHEN HE SUDDENLY DISAPPEARED. I COULD NOT IMAGINE WHAT HAD BECOME OF HIM. I CALLED AND CALLED BUT COULD GET NO ANSWER. GOING BACK TO CAMP I PROCURED A LIGHT AND AFTER WHOOPING AND HALLOOING FOR A LONG TIME I HEARD ANOTHER GROAN THIS TIME MUCH LOUDER THAN BEFORE. THE VOICE APPEARED TO BE OVERHEAD. BUT I WAS DETERMINED TO FIND HIM SO I KEPT ON HALLOOING AND HE ANSWERING. I WENT TO THE PLACE WHERE THE VOICE APPEARED TO COME OUT OF THE EARTH. I WAS WALKING ALONG RATHER THOUGHTLESSLY AND CARELESSLY WHEN ONE INCH MORE AND I WOULD HAVE DISAPPEARED ALSO. RIGHT BEFORE ME I SAW THE LONG DRY GRASS ALL BENDING TOWARD A COMMON CENTER AND I KNEW THAT IT WAS AN OLD WELL AND THAT MY COMRADE HAD FALLEN IN IT. BUT HOW TO GET HIM OUT WAS THE UNSOLVED PROBLEM

+THE POOR FELLOW STAYED IN THAT WELL ALL NIGHT. HE WAS WORSE SCARED THAN HURT. TUSCUMBIA. WE ARRIVED AND REMAINED AT TUSCUMBIA SEVERAL DAYS AWAITING THE LAYING OF THE PONTOONS ACROSS THE TENNESSEE RIVER AT FLORENCE ALABAMA AND THEN WE ALL CROSSED OVER. WHILE AT TUSCUMBIA JOHN BRANCH AND I SAW A NICE SWEET POTATO PATCH THAT LOOKED VERY TEMPTING TO A HUNGRY REBEL. WE LOOKED ALL AROUND AND THOUGHT THAT THE COAST WAS CLEAR. WE JUMPED OVER THE FENCE AND COMMENCED GRABBLING FOR THE SWEET POTATOES. I LOOKED AROUND AND THERE WAS A SOLDIER GUARD. WE BROKE AND RUN LIKE QUARTER HORSES AND THE GUARD PULLED DOWN ON US JUST AS WE JUMPED THE FENCE. I DON'T THINK HIS GUN WAS LOADED THOUGH BECAUSE WE DID NOT HEAR THE BALL WHISTLE. WE MARCHED FROM DECATUR TO FLORENCE. HERE THE PONTOON BRIDGES WERE NICELY AND BEAUTIFULLY STRETCHED ACROSS THE RIVER. WE WALKED OVER THIS FLOATING BRIDGE AND SOON FOUND OURSELVES ON THE TENNESSEE SIDE OF TENNESSEE RIVER. IN DRIVING A GREAT HERD OF CATTLE ACROSS THE PONTOON THE FRONT ONE GOT STUBBORN AND THE OTHERS CROWDING UP ALL IN ONE BULK BROKE THE LINE THAT HELD THE PONTOON AND DROWNED MANY OF THE DROVE. WE HAD BEEF FOR SUPPER THAT NIGHT. AND NIGHTLY WE PITCH OUR MOVING TENT A DAY'S MARCH NEARER HOME. HOW EVERY PULSE DID BEAT AND LEAP AND HOW EVERY HEART DID THROB WITH EMOTIONS OF JOY WHICH SEEMED NEARLY AKIN TO HEAVEN WHEN WE RECEIVED THE GLAD INTELLIGENCE OF OUR ONWARD MARCH TOWARD THE LAND OF PROMISE AND OF OUR LOVED ONES. THE COLD NOVEMBER WINDS COMING OFF THE MOUNTAINS OF THE NORTHWEST WERE BLOWING RIGHT IN OUR FACES AND NEARLY CUTTING US IN TWO. WE WERE INURED TO PRIVATIONS AND HARDSHIPS HAD BEEN UPON EVERY MARCH IN EVERY BATTLE IN EVERY SKIRMISH IN EVERY ADVANCE IN EVERY RETREAT IN EVERY VICTORY IN EVERY DEFEAT. WE HAD FOLLOWED THE SUCCESSES AND REVERSES OF THE FLAG OF THE LOST CAUSE THROUGH ALL THESE YEARS OF BLOOD AND STRIFE. I WAS SIMPLY ONE OF HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS IN THE SAME FIX. THE TALE IS THE SAME THAT EVERY SOLDIER WOULD TELL EXCEPT JIM WHITLER. JIM HAD DODGED ABOUT AND HAD ESCAPED BEING CONSCRIPTED UNTIL HOOD'S RAID HE CALLED IT. HOOD'S ARMY WAS TAKING UP EVERY ABLE BODIED MAN AND CONSCRIPTING HIM INTO THE ARMY. JIM WHITLER HAD GOT A POSITION AS OVER SEER ON A LARGE PLANTATION AND HAD ABOUT A HUNDRED NEGROES UNDER HIS SURVEILLANCE. THE ARMY HAD BEEN PASSING A GIVEN POINT AND JIM WAS SITTING QUIETLY ON THE FENCE LOOKING AT THE SOLDIERS. THE CONSCRIPTING SQUAD NABBED HIM. JIM TRIED TO BEG OFF BUT ALL ENTREATY WAS IN VAIN. HE WANTED TO GO BY HOME AND TELL HIS WIFE AND CHILDREN GOOD BYE AND TO GET HIS CLOTHES IT WAS NO GO. BUT AFTER AWHILE JIM SAYS GENTLEMEN AY GANNY THE LAW. YOU SEE JIM KNOWED THE LAW. HE DIDN'T KNOW B FROM A BULL'S FOOT IN THE SPELLING BOOK BUT HE SAID THE LAW. NOW WHEN ANYONE SAYS ANYTHING ABOUT THE LAW EVERY ONE STOPS TO LISTEN. THOSE OLD SOLDIERS HAD LONG LONG AGO FORGOTTEN ABOUT THAT OLD LAW OF THE LONG GONE PAST BUT JIM HAD TREASURED IT UP IN HIS MEMORY LO THESE MANY YEARS AND HE THOUGHT IT WOULD SERVE HIM NOW AS IT HAD NO DOUBT FREQUENTLY DONE IN THE PAST. JIM'S SPIRITS SANK HIS HOPES VANISHED INTO AIR. JIM WAS SOON IN LINE AND WAS TRAMPING TO THE MUSIC OF THE MARCH. HE STAYED WITH THE COMPANY TWO DAYS. THE THIRD DAY IT WAS REPORTED THAT THE YANKEES HAD TAKEN POSITION ON THE MURFREESBORO PIKE. A REGIMENT WAS SENT TO THE ATTACK IT WAS JIM'S REGIMENT. HE ADVANCED BRAVELY INTO BATTLE. THE MINNIE BALLS BEGAN TO WHISTLE AROUND HIS EARS THE REGIMENT WAS ORDERED TO FIRE. HE HADN'T SEEN ANYTHING TO SHOOT AT BUT HE BLAZED AWAY HE LOADED AND FIRED THE SECOND TIME WHEN THEY WERE ORDERED TO RETREAT

+WHEREIN WE SEE THE FACE OF HIM OF WHOM WE HAVE HITHERTO SEEN ONLY THE ACTS. NATURE HAD BEEN PRODIGAL OF HER KINDNESS TO GWYNPLAINE. SHE HAD BESTOWED ON HIM A MOUTH OPENING TO HIS EARS EARS FOLDING OVER TO HIS EYES A SHAPELESS NOSE TO SUPPORT THE SPECTACLES OF THE GRIMACE MAKER AND A FACE THAT NO ONE COULD LOOK UPON WITHOUT LAUGHING. WE HAVE JUST SAID THAT NATURE HAD LOADED GWYNPLAINE WITH HER GIFTS BUT WAS IT NATURE. HAD SHE NOT BEEN ASSISTED. TWO SLITS FOR EYES A HIATUS FOR A MOUTH A SNUB PROTUBERANCE WITH TWO HOLES FOR NOSTRILS A FLATTENED FACE ALL HAVING FOR THE RESULT AN APPEARANCE OF LAUGHTER IT IS CERTAIN THAT NATURE NEVER PRODUCES SUCH PERFECTION SINGLE HANDED. BUT IS LAUGHTER A SYNONYM OF JOY. SUCH A FACE COULD NEVER HAVE BEEN CREATED BY CHANCE IT MUST HAVE RESULTED FROM INTENTION. SUCH PERFECT COMPLETENESS IS NOT IN NATURE. MAN CAN DO NOTHING TO CREATE BEAUTY BUT EVERYTHING TO PRODUCE UGLINESS. A HOTTENTOT PROFILE CANNOT BE CHANGED INTO A ROMAN OUTLINE BUT OUT OF A GRECIAN NOSE YOU MAY MAKE A CALMUCK'S. IT ONLY REQUIRES TO OBLITERATE THE ROOT OF THE NOSE AND TO FLATTEN THE NOSTRILS. THE DOG LATIN OF THE MIDDLE AGES HAD A REASON FOR ITS CREATION OF THE VERB DENASARE. HAD GWYNPLAINE WHEN A CHILD BEEN SO WORTHY OF ATTENTION THAT HIS FACE HAD BEEN SUBJECTED TO TRANSMUTATION WHY NOT. NEEDED THERE A GREATER MOTIVE THAN THE SPECULATION OF HIS FUTURE EXHIBITION. ACCORDING TO ALL APPEARANCE INDUSTRIOUS MANIPULATORS OF CHILDREN HAD WORKED UPON HIS FACE. IT SEEMED EVIDENT THAT A MYSTERIOUS AND PROBABLY OCCULT SCIENCE WHICH WAS TO SURGERY WHAT ALCHEMY WAS TO CHEMISTRY HAD CHISELLED HIS FLESH EVIDENTLY AT A VERY TENDER AGE AND MANUFACTURED HIS COUNTENANCE WITH PREMEDITATION. MAN IS NOT BORN THUS. HOWEVER IT MAY HAVE BEEN THE MANIPULATION OF GWYNPLAINE HAD SUCCEEDED ADMIRABLY. GWYNPLAINE WAS A GIFT OF PROVIDENCE TO DISPEL THE SADNESS OF MAN. OF WHAT PROVIDENCE. IS THERE A PROVIDENCE OF DEMONS AS WELL AS OF GOD. WE PUT THE QUESTION WITHOUT ANSWERING IT. GWYNPLAINE WAS A MOUNTEBANK. HE SHOWED HIMSELF ON THE PLATFORM. NO SUCH EFFECT HAD EVER BEFORE BEEN PRODUCED. HYPOCHONDRIACS WERE CURED BY THE SIGHT OF HIM ALONE. HE WAS AVOIDED BY FOLKS IN MOURNING BECAUSE THEY WERE COMPELLED TO LAUGH WHEN THEY SAW HIM WITHOUT REGARD TO THEIR DECENT GRAVITY. ONE DAY THE EXECUTIONER CAME AND GWYNPLAINE MADE HIM LAUGH. EVERY ONE WHO SAW GWYNPLAINE HELD HIS SIDES HE SPOKE AND THEY ROLLED ON THE GROUND. HE WAS REMOVED FROM SADNESS AS IS POLE FROM POLE. SPLEEN AT THE ONE GWYNPLAINE AT THE OTHER. THUS HE ROSE RAPIDLY IN THE FAIR GROUND AND AT THE CROSS ROADS TO THE VERY SATISFACTORY RENOWN OF A HORRIBLE MAN. IT WAS GWYNPLAINE'S LAUGH WHICH CREATED THE LAUGHTER OF OTHERS YET HE DID NOT LAUGH HIMSELF. HIS FACE LAUGHED HIS THOUGHTS DID NOT. THE EXTRAORDINARY FACE WHICH CHANCE OR A SPECIAL AND WEIRD INDUSTRY HAD FASHIONED FOR HIM LAUGHED ALONE. GWYNPLAINE HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. THE OUTSIDE DID NOT DEPEND ON THE INTERIOR. THE LAUGH WHICH HE HAD NOT PLACED HIMSELF ON HIS BROW ON HIS EYELIDS ON HIS MOUTH HE COULD NOT REMOVE. IT HAD BEEN STAMPED FOR EVER ON HIS FACE. IT WAS AUTOMATIC AND THE MORE IRRESISTIBLE BECAUSE IT SEEMED PETRIFIED. NO ONE COULD ESCAPE FROM THIS RICTUS. TWO CONVULSIONS OF THE FACE ARE INFECTIOUS LAUGHING AND YAWNING

+BUT HE WAS TALL WELL MADE AND AGILE AND NO WAY DEFORMED EXCEPTING IN HIS FACE. THIS LED TO THE PRESUMPTION THAT GWYNPLAINE WAS RATHER A CREATION OF ART THAN A WORK OF NATURE. GWYNPLAINE BEAUTIFUL IN FIGURE HAD PROBABLY BEEN BEAUTIFUL IN FACE. THEY HAD LEFT THE BODY INTACT AND RETOUCHED ONLY THE FACE. GWYNPLAINE HAD BEEN MADE TO ORDER AT LEAST THAT WAS PROBABLE. THEY HAD LEFT HIM HIS TEETH TEETH ARE NECESSARY TO A LAUGH. THE DEATH'S HEAD RETAINS THEM. THE OPERATION PERFORMED ON HIM MUST HAVE BEEN FRIGHTFUL. SURGICAL SCULPTURE OF THE KIND COULD NEVER HAVE SUCCEEDED EXCEPT ON A VERY YOUNG CHILD AND CONSEQUENTLY ON ONE HAVING LITTLE CONSCIOUSNESS OF WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM AND WHO MIGHT EASILY TAKE A WOUND FOR A SICKNESS. BESIDES WE MUST REMEMBER THAT THEY HAD IN THOSE TIMES MEANS OF PUTTING PATIENTS TO SLEEP AND OF SUPPRESSING ALL SUFFERING ONLY THEN IT WAS CALLED MAGIC WHILE NOW IT IS CALLED ANAESTHESIA. BESIDES THIS FACE THOSE WHO HAD BROUGHT HIM UP HAD GIVEN HIM THE RESOURCES OF A GYMNAST AND AN ATHLETE. HIS ARTICULATIONS USEFULLY DISPLACED AND FASHIONED TO BENDING THE WRONG WAY HAD RECEIVED THE EDUCATION OF A CLOWN AND COULD LIKE THE HINGES OF A DOOR MOVE BACKWARDS AND FORWARDS. IN APPROPRIATING HIM TO THE PROFESSION OF MOUNTEBANK NOTHING HAD BEEN NEGLECTED. HIS HAIR HAD BEEN DYED WITH OCHRE ONCE FOR ALL A SECRET WHICH HAS BEEN REDISCOVERED AT THE PRESENT DAY. PRETTY WOMEN USE IT AND THAT WHICH WAS FORMERLY CONSIDERED UGLY IS NOW CONSIDERED AN EMBELLISHMENT. GWYNPLAINE HAD YELLOW HAIR. HIS HAIR HAVING PROBABLY BEEN DYED WITH SOME CORROSIVE PREPARATION HAD LEFT IT WOOLLY AND ROUGH TO THE TOUCH. ITS YELLOW BRISTLES RATHER A MANE THAN A HEAD OF HAIR COVERED AND CONCEALED A LOFTY BROW EVIDENTLY MADE TO CONTAIN THOUGHT. THE OPERATION WHATEVER IT HAD BEEN WHICH HAD DEPRIVED HIS FEATURES OF HARMONY AND PUT ALL THEIR FLESH INTO DISORDER HAD HAD NO EFFECT ON THE BONY STRUCTURE OF HIS HEAD. THE FACIAL ANGLE WAS POWERFUL AND SURPRISINGLY GRAND. BEHIND HIS LAUGH THERE WAS A SOUL DREAMING AS ALL OUR SOULS DREAM. HOWEVER HIS LAUGH WAS TO GWYNPLAINE QUITE A TALENT. HE COULD DO NOTHING WITH IT SO HE TURNED IT TO ACCOUNT. BY MEANS OF IT HE GAINED HIS LIVING

+NOT ONLY HAPPINESS BUT PROSPERITY. WHAT TRUE THINGS ARE TOLD IN STORIES. IN GWYNPLAINE EVIL THOUGHTS NEVER RIPENED AND HE HAD THEREFORE NO REMORSE. SOMETIMES HE FELT REGRET. VAGUE MISTS OF CONSCIENCE. WHAT WAS THIS NOTHING. THEIR HAPPINESS WAS COMPLETE SO COMPLETE THAT THEY WERE NO LONGER EVEN POOR. FROM SIXTEEN EIGHTY TO SEVENTEEN O FOUR A GREAT CHANGE HAD TAKEN PLACE. IT HAPPENED SOMETIMES IN THE YEAR SEVENTEEN O FOUR THAT AS NIGHT FELL ON SOME LITTLE VILLAGE ON THE COAST A GREAT HEAVY VAN DRAWN BY A PAIR OF STOUT HORSES MADE ITS ENTRY. THE WHEELS WERE ALL OF THE SAME SIZE AND HIGH AS WAGON WHEELS. THIS GREEN COLOUR HAD SUCCEEDED IN DRAWING ATTENTION TO THE CARRIAGE WHICH WAS KNOWN IN ALL THE FAIR GROUNDS AS THE GREEN BOX. ON THE ROOF FROM A TUBE PAINTED GREEN LIKE THE REST SMOKE AROSE. THIS MOVING HOUSE WAS ALWAYS VARNISHED AND WASHED AFRESH. IN FRONT ON A LEDGE FASTENED TO THE VAN WITH THE WINDOW FOR A DOOR BEHIND THE HORSES AND BY THE SIDE OF AN OLD MAN WHO HELD THE REINS AND DIRECTED THE TEAM TWO GIPSY WOMEN DRESSED AS GODDESSES SOUNDED THEIR TRUMPETS. THE ASTONISHMENT WITH WHICH THE VILLAGERS REGARDED THIS MACHINE WAS OVERWHELMING. THIS WAS THE OLD ESTABLISHMENT OF URSUS ITS PROPORTIONS AUGMENTED BY SUCCESS AND IMPROVED FROM A WRETCHED BOOTH INTO A THEATRE. A KIND OF ANIMAL BETWEEN DOG AND WOLF WAS CHAINED UNDER THE VAN THIS WAS HOMO. THE OLD COACHMAN WHO DROVE THE HORSES WAS THE PHILOSOPHER HIMSELF. WHENCE CAME THIS IMPROVEMENT FROM THE MISERABLE HUT TO THE OLYMPIC CARAVAN. FROM THIS GWYNPLAINE HAD BECOME FAMOUS. IT WAS WITH A CORRECT SCENT OF WHAT WOULD SUCCEED AMONGST MEN THAT URSUS HAD SAID TO GWYNPLAINE. THEY MADE YOUR FORTUNE. URSUS IT MAY BE REMEMBERED HAD MADE GWYNPLAINE HIS PUPIL. UNKNOWN PEOPLE HAD WORKED UPON HIS FACE HE ON THE OTHER HAND HAD WORKED ON HIS MIND AND BEHIND THIS WELL EXECUTED MASK HE HAD PLACED ALL THAT HE COULD OF THOUGHT. SO SOON AS THE GROWTH OF THE CHILD HAD RENDERED HIM FITTED FOR IT HE HAD BROUGHT HIM OUT ON THE STAGE THAT IS HE HAD PRODUCED HIM IN FRONT OF THE VAN. THE EFFECT OF HIS APPEARANCE HAD BEEN SURPRISING. THE PASSERS BY WERE IMMEDIATELY STRUCK WITH WONDER. NEVER HAD ANYTHING BEEN SEEN TO BE COMPARED TO THIS EXTRAORDINARY MIMIC OF LAUGHTER. THEY WERE IGNORANT HOW THE MIRACLE OF INFECTIOUS HILARITY HAD BEEN OBTAINED. SOME BELIEVED IT TO BE NATURAL OTHERS DECLARED IT TO BE ARTIFICIAL AND AS CONJECTURE WAS ADDED TO REALITY EVERYWHERE AT EVERY CROSS ROAD ON THE JOURNEY IN ALL THE GROUNDS OF FAIRS AND FETES THE CROWD RAN AFTER GWYNPLAINE. THANKS TO THIS GREAT ATTRACTION THERE HAD COME INTO THE POOR PURSE OF THE WANDERING GROUP FIRST A RAIN OF FARTHINGS THEN OF HEAVY PENNIES AND FINALLY OF SHILLINGS. THE CURIOSITY OF ONE PLACE EXHAUSTED THEY PASSED ON TO ANOTHER. ROLLING DOES NOT ENRICH A STONE BUT IT ENRICHES A CARAVAN AND YEAR BY YEAR FROM CITY TO CITY WITH THE INCREASED GROWTH OF GWYNPLAINE'S PERSON AND OF HIS UGLINESS THE FORTUNE PREDICTED BY URSUS HAD COME. WHAT A GOOD TURN THEY DID YOU THERE MY BOY SAID URSUS. THIS FORTUNE HAD ALLOWED URSUS WHO WAS THE ADMINISTRATOR OF GWYNPLAINE'S SUCCESS TO HAVE THE CHARIOT OF HIS DREAMS CONSTRUCTED THAT IS TO SAY A CARAVAN LARGE ENOUGH TO CARRY A THEATRE AND TO SOW SCIENCE AND ART IN THE HIGHWAYS. A MYTHOLOGICAL FRONTISPIECE WAS IN THOSE DAYS OF SERVICE TO A CARAVAN OF MOUNTEBANKS. WE ARE A WANDERING TEMPLE SAID URSUS. FOR THESE READ FIBI AND VINOS THAT WE MAY CONFORM TO ENGLISH PRONUNCIATION. PHOEBE COOKED VENUS SCRUBBED THE TEMPLE

+URSUS AND GWYNPLAINE WORE MEN'S JACKETS AND LIKE SAILORS ON BOARD A MAN OF WAR GREAT LOOSE TROUSERS. GWYNPLAINE HAD BESIDES FOR HIS WORK AND FOR HIS FEATS OF STRENGTH ROUND HIS NECK AND OVER HIS SHOULDERS AN ESCLAVINE OF LEATHER HE TOOK CHARGE OF THE HORSES. URSUS AND HOMO TOOK CHARGE OF EACH OTHER. THE EYE WHICH COULD PENETRATE WITHIN THIS STRUCTURE AND ITS INTERNAL ARRANGEMENTS MIGHT HAVE PERCEIVED IN A CORNER FASTENED TO THE PLANKS AND IMMOVABLE ON ITS FOUR WHEELS THE OLD HUT OF URSUS PLACED ON HALF PAY ALLOWED TO RUST AND FROM THENCEFORTH DISPENSED THE LABOUR OF ROLLING AS URSUS WAS RELIEVED FROM THE LABOUR OF DRAWING IT. THIS HUT IN A CORNER AT THE BACK TO THE RIGHT OF THE DOOR SERVED AS BEDCHAMBER AND DRESSING ROOM TO URSUS AND GWYNPLAINE. IT NOW CONTAINED TWO BEDS. IN THE OPPOSITE CORNER WAS THE KITCHEN. THE ARRANGEMENT OF A VESSEL WAS NOT MORE PRECISE AND CONCISE THAN THAT OF THE INTERIOR OF THE GREEN BOX. EVERYTHING WITHIN IT WAS IN ITS PLACE ARRANGED FORESEEN AND INTENDED. THE CARAVAN WAS DIVIDED INTO THREE COMPARTMENTS PARTITIONED FROM EACH OTHER. THESE COMMUNICATED BY OPEN SPACES WITHOUT DOORS. A PIECE OF STUFF FELL OVER THEM AND ANSWERED THE PURPOSE OF CONCEALMENT. THE COMPARTMENT BEHIND BELONGED TO THE MEN THE COMPARTMENT IN FRONT TO THE WOMEN THE COMPARTMENT IN THE MIDDLE SEPARATING THE TWO SEXES WAS THE STAGE. THE INSTRUMENTS OF THE ORCHESTRA AND THE PROPERTIES WERE KEPT IN THE KITCHEN. A LOFT UNDER THE ARCH OF THE ROOF CONTAINED THE SCENES AND ON OPENING A TRAP DOOR LAMPS APPEARED PRODUCING WONDERS OF LIGHT. URSUS WAS THE POET OF THESE MAGICAL REPRESENTATIONS HE WROTE THE PIECES. HE HAD A DIVERSITY OF TALENTS HE WAS CLEVER AT SLEIGHT OF HAND. BESIDES THE VOICES HE IMITATED HE PRODUCED ALL SORTS OF UNEXPECTED THINGS SHOCKS OF LIGHT AND DARKNESS SPONTANEOUS FORMATIONS OF FIGURES OR WORDS AS HE WILLED ON THE PARTITION VANISHING FIGURES IN CHIAROSCURO STRANGE THINGS AMIDST WHICH HE SEEMED TO MEDITATE UNMINDFUL OF THE CROWD WHO MARVELLED AT HIM. ONE DAY GWYNPLAINE SAID TO HIM. FATHER YOU LOOK LIKE A SORCERER AND URSUS REPLIED. THEN I LOOK PERHAPS LIKE WHAT I AM. THE GREEN BOX BUILT ON A CLEAR MODEL OF URSUS'S CONTAINED THIS REFINEMENT OF INGENUITY THAT BETWEEN THE FORE AND HIND WHEELS THE CENTRAL PANEL OF THE LEFT SIDE TURNED ON HINGES BY THE AID OF CHAINS AND PULLEYS AND COULD BE LET DOWN AT WILL LIKE A DRAWBRIDGE. AS IT DROPPED IT SET AT LIBERTY THREE LEGS ON HINGES WHICH SUPPORTED THE PANEL WHEN LET DOWN AND WHICH PLACED THEMSELVES STRAIGHT ON THE GROUND LIKE THE LEGS OF A TABLE AND SUPPORTED IT ABOVE THE EARTH LIKE A PLATFORM. THIS EXPOSED THE STAGE WHICH WAS THUS ENLARGED BY THE PLATFORM IN FRONT. THIS OPENING LOOKED FOR ALL THE WORLD LIKE A MOUTH OF HELL IN THE WORDS OF THE ITINERANT PURITAN PREACHERS WHO TURNED AWAY FROM IT WITH HORROR. IT WAS PERHAPS FOR SOME SUCH PIOUS INVENTION THAT SOLON KICKED OUT THESPIS. FOR ALL THAT THESPIS HAS LASTED MUCH LONGER THAN IS GENERALLY BELIEVED. THE TRAVELLING THEATRE IS STILL IN EXISTENCE. THESPIS WOULD NO MORE HAVE DISOWNED URSUS THAN CONGRIO WOULD HAVE DISOWNED GWYNPLAINE. THIS SYMPHONY IS GREGORIAN HE WOULD EXCLAIM. THE SCENE OF THE GREEN BOX REPRESENTED A LANDSCAPE PAINTED BY URSUS AND AS HE DID NOT KNOW HOW TO PAINT IT REPRESENTED A CAVERN JUST AS WELL AS A LANDSCAPE. THE CURTAIN WHICH WE CALL DROP NOWADAYS WAS A CHECKED SILK WITH SQUARES OF CONTRASTED COLOURS

+WHAT A FUSS IS MADE ABOUT YOU MY DEAR LITTLE FRIENDS. MURMURED THE WIND ONE DAY TO THE FLOWERS IN A PRETTY VILLA GARDEN. I AM REALLY QUITE SURPRISED AT YOUR SUBMITTING SO PATIENTLY AND MEEKLY TO ALL THE TROUBLESOME THINGS THAT ARE DONE TO YOU. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING YOUR FRIEND THE GARDENER FOR SOME TIME TO DAY AND NOW THAT HE IS GONE AT LAST I AM QUITE CURIOUS TO HEAR WHAT YOU THINK AND FEEL ABOUT YOUR UNNATURAL BRINGING UP. IS IT UNNATURAL. INQUIRED A BEAUTIFUL CONVOLVULUS MAJOR FROM THE TOP OF A TAPERING FIR POLE UP WHICH SHE HAD CREPT AND FROM WHICH HER VELVET FLOWERS HUNG SUSPENDED LIKE PURPLE GEMS. I SMILE AT YOUR QUESTION WAS THE ANSWER OF THE WIND. YOU SURELY CANNOT SUPPOSE THAT IN A NATURAL STATE YOU WOULD BE FORCED TO CLIMB REGULARLY UP ONE TALL BARE STICK SUCH AS I SEE YOU UPON NOW. OH DEAR NO. YOUR COUSIN THE WILD CONVOLVULUS WHOM I LEFT IN THE FIELDS THIS MORNING DOES NO SUCH THING I ASSURE YOU. SHE RUNS ALONG AND CLIMBS ABOUT JUST AS THE WHIM TAKES HER. SOMETIMES SHE TAKES A TURN UPON THE GROUND SOMETIMES SHE ENTERS A HEDGE AND PLAYS AT BO PEEP WITH THE BIRDS IN THE THORN AND NUT TREES TWISTING HERE CURLING THERE AND AT LAST PERHAPS COMING OUT AT THE TOP AND OVERHANGING THE EDGE WITH A CANOPY OF GREEN LEAVES AND PRETTY WHITE FLOWERS. I QUITE FEEL FOR YOU. STILL I MUST SAY YOU MAKE ME SMILE FOR YOU LOOK SO PROUD AND SELF CONSCIOUS OF BEAUTY ALL THE TIME THAT ONE WOULD THINK YOU DID NOT KNOW IN WHAT A RIDICULOUS AND DEPENDENT POSITION YOU ARE PLACED. NOW THE CONVOLVULUS WAS QUITE ABASHED BY THE WORDS OF THE WIND FOR SHE WAS CONSCIOUS OF FEELING VERY CONCEITED THAT MORNING IN CONSEQUENCE OF HAVING HEARD THE GARDENER SAY SOMETHING VERY FLATTERING ABOUT HER BEAUTY SO SHE HUNG DOWN HER RICH BELL FLOWERS RATHER LOWER THAN USUAL AND MADE NO REPLY. I AM NOT AWARE THAT I HAVE ANY POOR RELATIONS IN THIS COUNTRY AND I MYSELF CERTAINLY REQUIRE ALL THE CARE THAT IS BESTOWED UPON ME. THIS CLIMATE IS BOTH TOO COLD AND TOO DAMP FOR ME. MY YOUNG PLANTS REQUIRE HEAT OR THEY WOULD NOT LIVE AND THE POTS WE ARE KEPT IN PROTECT US FROM THOSE CRUEL WIRE WORMS WHO DELIGHT TO DESTROY OUR ROOTS. WHY NOT ALLOW YOUR SILVER TUFTS TO LUXURIATE IN A NATURAL MANNER. WHY MUST EVERY SINGLE FLOWER BETIED UP BY ITS DELICATE NECK TO A STICK THE MOMENT IT BEGINS TO OPEN. REALLY WITH YOUR NATURAL GRACE AND BEAUTY I THINK YOU MIGHT BE TRUSTED TO YOURSELF A LITTLE MORE. AND THE CARNATION BEGAN TO THINK SO TOO AND HER COLOUR TURNED DEEPER AS A FEELING OF INDIGNATION AROSE WITHIN HER AT THE CHILDISH TREATMENT TO WHICH SHE HAD BEEN SUBJECTED. WITH MY NATURAL GRACE AND BEAUTY REPEATED SHE TO HERSELF THEY MIGHT CERTAINLY TRUST ME TO MYSELF A LITTLE MORE. STILL THE ROSE TREE STOOD OUT THAT THERE MUST BE SOME GREAT ADVANTAGES IN A GARDENER'S CARE FOR SHE COULD NOT PRETEND TO BE IGNORANT OF HER OWN SUPERIORITY TO ALL HER WILD RELATIONS IN THE WOODS

+ALL THAT NIGHT THE PRETTY SILLY FLOWERS BEWAILED THEIR SLAVISH CONDITION AND LONGED FOR RELEASE AND FREEDOM AND AT LAST THEY BEGAN TO BE AFRAID THAT THE WIND HAD ONLY BEEN JESTING WITH THEM AND THAT HE WOULD NEVER COME TO HELP THEM AS HE HAD PROMISED. HOWEVER THEY WERE MISTAKEN FOR AT THE EDGE OF THE DAWN THERE BEGAN TO BE A SIGHING AND A MOANING IN THE DISTANT WOODS AND BY THE TIME THE SUN WAS UP THE CLOUDS WERE DRIVING FAST ALONG THE SKY AND THE TREES WERE BENDING ABOUT IN ALL DIRECTIONS FOR THE WIND HAD RETURNED ONLY NOW HE HAD COME IN HIS ROUGHEST AND WILDEST MOOD KNOCKING OVER EVERYTHING BEFORE HIM. ECHOED THE FLOWERS TREMULOUSLY AS WITH A SORT OF FEARFUL PLEASURE THEY AWAITED HIS APPROACH. HE MANAGED THE AFFAIR VERY CLEVERLY IT MUST BE CONFESSED. MAKING A SORT OF EDDYING CIRCUIT ROUND THE GARDEN HE KNOCKED OVER THE CONVOLVULUS POLE TORE THE STRIPS FROM THE STICK THAT HELD UP THE WHITE LILY LOOSED ALL THE CARNATION FLOWERS FROM THEIR FASTENINGS BROKE THE ROSE TREE DOWN AND LEVELLED THE SWEET PEAS TO THE GROUND. IN SHORT IN ONE HALF HOUR HE DESOLATED THE PRETTY GARDEN AND WHEN HIS WORK WAS ACCOMPLISHED HE FLEW OFF. MEANWHILE HOW FARED IT WITH THE FLOWERS. THE WIND WAS SCARCELY GONE BEFORE A SUDDEN AND HEAVY RAIN FOLLOWED SO THAT ALL WAS CONFUSION FOR SOME TIME. BUT TOWARDS THE EVENING THE WEATHER CLEARED UP AND OUR FRIENDS BEGAN TO LOOK AROUND THEM. THE WHITE LILY STILL STOOD SOMEWHAT UPRIGHT THOUGH NO FRIENDLY POLE SUPPORTED HER JUICY STEM BUT ALAS. IT WAS ONLY BY A PAINFUL EFFORT SHE COULD HOLD HERSELF IN THAT POSITION. THE CONVOLVULUS FARED STILL WORSE. THE GARDEN BEDS SLOPED TOWARDS THE SOUTH AND WHEN OUR FRIEND WAS LAID ON THE EARTH HER POLE HAVING FALLEN HER LOVELY FLOWERS WERE CHOKED UP BY THE WET SOIL WHICH DRAINED TOWARDS HER. SHE FELT THE MUDDY WEIGHT AS IT SOAKED INTO HER BEAUTIFUL VELVET BELLS AND COULD HAVE CRIED FOR GRIEF SHE COULD NEVER FREE HERSELF FROM THIS NUISANCE. OH THAT SHE WERE ONCE MORE CLIMBING UP THE FRIENDLY FIR POLE. THE HONEYSUCKLE ESCAPED NO BETTER AND THE CARNATION WAS READY TO DIE OF VEXATION AT FINDING THAT HER COVETED FREEDOM HAD LEVELLED HER TO THE DIRT. BEFORE THE DAY CLOSED THE GARDENER CAME WHISTLING FROM HIS FARM WORK TO LOOK OVER HIS PRETTY CHARGES. HE EXPECTED TO SEE A FEW DROOPING FLOWERS AND TO FIND THAT ONE OR TWO FASTENINGS HAD GIVEN WAY. BUT FOR THE SIGHT THAT AWAITED HIM HE WAS NOT PREPARED AT ALL. THEN AT LAST HE BROKE OUT INTO WORDS OF ABSOLUTE SORROW AND TO THINK OF MY MISTRESS AND THE YOUNG LADY COMING HOME SO SOON AND THAT NOTHING CAN BE DONE TO THESE POOR THINGS FOR A FORTNIGHT BECAUSE OF THE CORN HARVEST. IT'S ALL OVER WITH THEM I FEAR AND THE GARDENER WENT HIS WAY ALAS. WHAT HE SAID WAS TRUE AND BEFORE MANY DAYS HAD PASSED THE SHATTERED CARNATIONS WERE ROTTED WITH LYING IN THE WET AND DIRT ON THE GROUND. WEEDS MEANWHILE SPRANG UP AND A DREARY CONFUSION REIGNED IN THE ONCE ORDERLY AND BRILLIANT LITTLE GARDEN. AT LENGTH ONE DAY BEFORE THE FORTNIGHT WAS OVER THE HOUSE DOG WAS HEARD TO BARK HIS NOISY WELCOME AND SERVANTS BUSTLED TO AND FRO. THE MISTRESS HAD RETURNED AND THE YOUNG LADY WAS WITH HER AND HURRIED AT ONCE TO HER FAVOURITE GARDEN

+BUT DEUCALION AND PYRRHA WERE VERY SAD FOR THEY KNEW THAT THEY WERE THE ONLY PERSONS WHO WERE LEFT ALIVE IN ALL THE LAND. AT LAST THEY STARTED TO WALK DOWN THE MOUNTAIN SIDE TOWARDS THE PLAIN WONDERING WHAT WOULD BECOME OF THEM NOW ALL ALONE AS THEY WERE IN THE WIDE WORLD. WHILE THEY WERE TALKING AND TRYING TO THINK WHAT THEY SHOULD DO THEY HEARD A VOICE BEHIND THEM. HE WAS VERY TALL WITH BLUE EYES AND YELLOW HAIR. THERE WERE WINGS ON HIS SHOES AND ON HIS CAP AND IN HIS HANDS HE BORE A STAFF WITH GOLDEN SERPENTS TWINED AROUND IT. THEY KNEW AT ONCE THAT HE WAS MERCURY THE SWIFT MESSENGER OF THE MIGHTY ONES AND THEY WAITED TO HEAR WHAT HE WOULD SAY. IS THERE ANYTHING THAT YOU WISH HE ASKED. TELL ME AND YOU SHALL HAVE WHATEVER YOU DESIRE. WE SHOULD LIKE ABOVE ALL THINGS SAID DEUCALION TO SEE THIS LAND FULL OF PEOPLE ONCE MORE FOR WITHOUT NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS THE WORLD IS A VERY LONELY PLACE INDEED. GO ON DOWN THE MOUNTAIN SAID MERCURY AND AS YOU GO CAST THE BONES OF YOUR MOTHER OVER YOUR SHOULDERS BEHIND YOU AND WITH THESE WORDS HE LEAPED INTO THE AIR AND WAS SEEN NO MORE. WHAT DID HE MEAN ASKED PYRRHA. SURELY I DO NOT KNOW SAID DEUCALION. BUT LET US THINK A MOMENT. AND SO THEY WALKED ON DOWN THE STEEP SLOPE OF MOUNT PARNASSUS AND AS THEY WALKED THEY PICKED UP THE LOOSE STONES IN THEIR WAY AND CAST THEM OVER THEIR SHOULDERS AND STRANGE TO SAY THE STONES WHICH DEUCALION THREW SPRANG UP AS FULL GROWN MEN STRONG AND HANDSOME AND BRAVE AND THE STONES WHICH PYRRHA THREW SPRANG UP AS FULL GROWN WOMEN LOVELY AND FAIR. WHEN AT LAST THEY REACHED THE PLAIN THEY FOUND THEMSELVES AT THE HEAD OF A NOBLE COMPANY OF HUMAN BEINGS ALL EAGER TO SERVE THEM. SO DEUCALION BECAME THEIR KING AND HE SET THEM IN HOMES AND TAUGHT THEM HOW TO TILL THE GROUND AND HOW TO DO MANY USEFUL THINGS AND THE LAND WAS FILLED WITH PEOPLE WHO WERE HAPPIER AND FAR BETTER THAN THOSE WHO HAD DWELT THERE BEFORE THE FLOOD. AND THEY NAMED THE COUNTRY HELLAS AFTER HELLEN THE SON OF DEUCALION AND PYRRHA AND THE PEOPLE ARE TO THIS DAY CALLED HELLENES

+THAT NIGHT AND EVERY NIGHT UNTIL THE DUST WAS LAID TO THE DUST MARY SLEPT WELL AND THROUGH THE DAYS SHE HAD GREAT COMPOSURE BUT WHEN THE FUNERAL WAS OVER CAME A COLLAPSE AND A CHANGE. THE MOMENT IT BECAME NECESSARY TO LOOK ON THE WORLD AS UNCHANGED AND RESUME FORMER RELATIONS WITH IT THEN FIRST A FULLER SENSE OF HER LONELY DESOLATION DECLARED ITSELF. WHEN SHE SAID GOOD NIGHT TO BEENIE AND WENT TO HER CHAMBER OVER THAT WHERE THE LOVED PARENT AND FRIEND WOULD FALL ASLEEP NO MORE SHE FELT AS IF SHE WENT WALKING ALONG TO HER TOMB. THAT NIGHT WAS THE FIRST HERALD OF THE COMING WINTER AND BLEW A COLD BLAST FROM HIS HORN. ALL DAY THE WIND HAD BEEN OUT. AT THE TIME MARY HAD NOTED NOTHING OF THESE THINGS NOW SHE SAW THEM ALL AS FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MINUTE DETAIL WHILE SLOWLY SHE WENT UP THE STAIR AND THROUGH THE NARROWED WAYS AND HEARD THE SAME WIND THAT RAVED ALIKE ABOUT THE NEW GRAVE AND THE OLD HOUSE INTO WHICH LATTER FOR ALL THE BALES BANKED AGAINST THE WALLS IT FOUND MANY A CHINK OF ENTRANCE. THE SMELL OF THE LINEN OF THE BLUE CLOTH AND OF THE BROWN PAPER THINGS NO LONGER TO BE HANDLED BY THOSE TENDER FAITHFUL HANDS WAS DISMAL AND STRANGE AND HAUNTED HER LIKE THINGS THAT INTRUDED THINGS WHICH SHE HAD DONE WITH AND WHICH YET WOULD NOT GO AWAY. EVERYTHING HAD GONE DEAD AS IT SEEMED HAD EXHALED THE SOUL OF IT AND RETAINED BUT THE ODOR OF ITS MORTALITY. IF FOR A MOMENT A THING LOOKED THE SAME AS BEFORE SHE WONDERED VAGUELY UNCONSCIOUSLY HOW IT COULD BE. THE PASSAGES THROUGH THE MERCHANDISE LEFT ONLY WIDE ENOUGH FOR ONE SEEMED LIKE THOSE SHE HAD READ OF IN EGYPTIAN TOMBS AND PYRAMIDS A SARCOPHAGUS OUGHT TO BE WAITING IN HER CHAMBER. WHEN SHE OPENED THE DOOR OF IT THE BRIGHT FIRE WHICH BEENIE UNDESIRED HAD KINDLED THERE STARTLED HER THE ROOM LOOKED UNNATURAL UNCANNY BECAUSE IT WAS CHEERFUL. SHE STOOD FOR A MOMENT ON THE HEARTH AND IN SAD DREAMY MOOD LISTENED TO THE HOWLING SWOOPS OF THE WIND MAKING THE HOUSE QUIVER AND SHAKE. NOW AND THEN WOULD COME A GREATER GUST AND RATTLE THE WINDOW AS IF IN FIERCE ANGER AT ITS EXCLUSION THEN GO SHRIEKING AND WAILING THROUGH THE DARK HEAVEN. MECHANICALLY SHE TOOK HER NEW TESTAMENT AND SEATING HERSELF IN A LOW CHAIR BY THE FIRE TRIED TO READ BUT SHE COULD NOT FIX HER THOUGHTS OR GET THE MEANING OF A SENTENCE WHEN SHE HAD READ IT THERE IT LAY LOOKING AT HER JUST THE SAME LIKE AN UNANSWERED RIDDLE. THE REGION OF THE SENSES IS THE UNBELIEVING PART OF THE HUMAN SOUL AND OUT OF THAT NOW BEGAN TO RISE FUMES OF DOUBT AND QUESTION INTO MARY'S HEART AND BRAIN DEATH WAS A FACT. THE LOSS THE EVANISHMENT THE CEASING WERE INCONTROVERTIBLE THE ONLY INCONTROVERTIBLE THINGS SHE WAS SURE OF THEM COULD SHE BE SURE OF ANYTHING ELSE HOW COULD SHE. SHE HAD NOT SEEN CHRIST RISE SHE HAD NEVER LOOKED UPON ONE OF THE DEAD NEVER HEARD A VOICE FROM THE OTHER BANK HAD RECEIVED NO CERTAIN TESTIMONY. AT LAST SHE FELL ASLEEP AND IN A MOMENT WAS DREAMING DILIGENTLY. THIS WAS HER DREAM AS NEARLY AS SHE COULD RECALL IT WHEN SHE CAME TO HERSELF AFTER WAKING FROM IT WITH A CRY. SHE WAS ONE OF A LARGE COMPANY AT A HOUSE WHERE SHE HAD NEVER BEEN BEFORE A BEAUTIFUL HOUSE WITH A LARGE GARDEN BEHIND. IT WAS A SUMMER NIGHT AND THE GUESTS WERE WANDERING IN AND OUT AT WILL AND THROUGH HOUSE AND GARDEN AMID LOVELY THINGS OF ALL COLORS AND ODORS. THE MOON WAS SHINING AND THE ROSES WERE IN PALE BLOOM. BUT SHE KNEW NOBODY AND WANDERED ALONE IN THE GARDEN OPPRESSED WITH SOMETHING SHE DID NOT UNDERSTAND. EVERY NOW AND THEN SHE CAME ON A LITTLE GROUP OR MET A PARTY OF THE GUESTS AS SHE WALKED BUT NONE SPOKE TO HER OR SEEMED TO SEE HER AND SHE SPOKE TO NONE. SHE FOUND HERSELF AT LENGTH IN AN AVENUE OF DARK TREES THE END OF WHICH WAS FAR OFF

+THITHER SHE WENT WALKING THE ONLY LIVING THING CROSSING STRANGE SHADOWS FROM THE MOON. AT THE END OF IT SHE WAS IN A PLACE OF TOMBS. TERROR AND A DISMAY INDESCRIBABLE SEIZED HER SHE TURNED AND FLED BACK TO THE COMPANY OF HER KIND. BUT FOR A LONG TIME SHE SOUGHT THE HOUSE IN VAIN SHE COULD NOT REACH IT THE AVENUE SEEMED INTERMINABLE TO HER FEET RETURNING. AT LAST SHE WAS AGAIN UPON THE LAWN BUT NEITHER MAN NOR WOMAN WAS THERE AND IN THE HOUSE ONLY A LIGHT HERE AND THERE WAS BURNING EVERY GUEST WAS GONE. SHE ENTERED AND THE SERVANTS SOFT FOOTED AND SILENT WERE BUSY CARRYING AWAY THE VESSELS OF HOSPITALITY AND RESTORING ORDER AS IF ALREADY THEY PREPARED FOR ANOTHER COMPANY ON THE MORROW NO ONE HEEDED HER. SHE WAS OUT OF PLACE AND MUCH UNWELCOME. SHE HASTENED TO THE DOOR OF ENTRANCE FOR EVERY MOMENT THERE WAS A MISERY SHE REACHED THE HALL A STRANGE SHADOWY PORTER OPENED TO HER AND SHE STEPPED OUT INTO A WIDE STREET. THAT TOO WAS SILENT. NO CARRIAGE ROLLED ALONG THE CENTER NO FOOTFARER WALKED ON THE SIDE. NOT A LIGHT SHONE FROM WINDOW OR DOOR SAVE WHAT THEY GAVE BACK OF THE YELLOW LIGHT OF THE MOON. SHE WAS LOST LOST UTTERLY WITH AN ETERNAL LOSS. SHE KNEW NOTHING OF THE PLACE HAD NOWHERE TO GO NOWHERE SHE WANTED TO GO HAD NOT A THOUGHT TO TELL HER WHAT QUESTION TO ASK IF SHE MET A LIVING SOUL. BUT LIVING SOUL THERE COULD BE NONE TO MEET. SHE SAT DOWN UPON A STONE BETWEEN THE WIDE STREET AND THE WIDE PAVEMENT AND SAW THE MOON SHINING GRAY UPON THE STONE HOUSES IT WAS ALL DEADNESS. SHE HAD LOST HIM YEARS AND YEARS BEFORE AND NOW SHE SAW HIM HE WAS THERE AND SHE KNEW HIM. BUT NOT A THROB WENT THROUGH HER HEART. HE CAME TO HER SIDE AND SHE GAVE HIM NO GREETING. WHY SHOULD I HEED HIM SHE SAID TO HERSELF HE IS DEAD. IT IS NOTHING I AM NOTHING I AM LOST. EVERYTHING IS AN EMPTY DREAM OF LOSS. I KNOW IT AND THERE IS NO WAKING. IF THERE WERE SURELY THE SIGHT OF HIM WOULD GIVE ME SOME SHIMMER OF DELIGHT. THE OLD TIME WAS BUT A THICKER DREAM AND THIS IS TRUER BECAUSE MORE SHADOWY. AND THE FORM STILL STANDING BY HER SHE FELT IT WAS AGES AWAY SHE WAS DIVIDED FROM IT BY A GULF OF VERY NOTHINGNESS. HER ONLY LIFE WAS THAT SHE WAS LOST. HER WHOLE CONSCIOUSNESS WAS MEREST ALL BUT ABSTRACT LOSS. THEN CAME THE FORM OF HER MOTHER AND BENT OVER THAT OF HER BROTHER FROM BEHIND. ANOTHER GHOST OF A GHOST ANOTHER SHADOW OF A PHANTOM SHE SAID TO HERSELF SHE IS NOTHING TO ME. IF I SPEAK TO HER SHE IS NOT THERE. SHALL I POUR OUT MY SOUL INTO THE EAR OF A MIST A FUME FROM MY OWN BRAIN. OH COLD CREATURES YE ARE NOT WHAT YE SEEM AND I WILL NONE OF YOU. WITH THAT CAME HER FATHER AND STOOD BESIDE THE OTHERS GAZING UPON HER WITH STILL COLD EYES EXPRESSING ONLY A PALE QUIET. SHE BOWED HER FACE ON HER HANDS AND WOULD NOT REGARD HIM. EVEN IF HE WERE ALIVE HER HEART WAS PAST BEING MOVED IT WAS SETTLED INTO STONE. THE UNIVERSE WAS SUNK IN ONE OF THE DREAMS THAT HAUNT THE SLEEP OF DEATH AND IF THESE WERE GHOSTS AT ALL THEY WERE GHOSTS WALKING IN THEIR SLEEP. BUT THE DEAD ONE OF THEM SEIZED ONE OF HER HANDS AND ANOTHER THE OTHER. THEY RAISED HER TO HER FEET AND LED HER ALONG AND HER BROTHER WALKED BEFORE. THUS WAS SHE BORNE AWAY CAPTIVE OF HER DEAD NEITHER WILLING NOR UNWILLING OF LIFE AND DEATH EQUALLY CARELESS. THROUGH THE MOONLIGHT THEY LED HER FROM THE CITY AND OVER FIELDS AND THROUGH VALLEYS AND ACROSS RIVERS AND SEAS A LONG JOURNEY NOR DID SHE GROW WEARY FOR THERE WAS NOT LIFE ENOUGH IN HER TO BE MADE WEARY. THE DEAD NEVER SPOKE TO HER AND SHE NEVER SPOKE TO THEM

+THE UNFAITHFUL LOVER. SHE WAS GOING TO MEET HER LOVER. AND THE FACT THAT SHE WAS TO MEET HIM AT CANNON STREET STATION WOULD ALMOST SHE FEARED MAKE THE MEETING ITSELF BANAL SORDID. SHE WOULD HAVE LIKED TO MEET HIM IN SOME GREEN COOL ORCHARD WHERE DAFFODILS SWUNG IN THE LONG GRASS AND PRIMROSES STOOD ON FRAIL STIFF LITTLE PINK STALKS IN THE WET SCENTED MOSS OF THE HEDGEROW. THE TIME SHOULD HAVE BEEN MAY. SHE HERSELF SHOULD HAVE BEEN A POEM A LYRIC IN A WHITE GOWN AND GREEN SCARF COMING TO HIM THROUGH THE LONG GRASS UNDER THE BLOSSOMED BOUGHS. HER HANDS SHOULD HAVE BEEN FULL OF BLUEBELLS AND SHE SHOULD HAVE HELD THEM UP TO HIS FACE IN MAIDENLY DEFENCE AS HE SPRANG FORWARD TO TAKE HER IN HIS ARMS. YOU SEE THAT SHE KNEW EXACTLY HOW A TRYST IS CONDUCTED IN THE PAGES OF THE STANDARD POETS AND OF THE CHEAPER WEEKLY JOURNALS. SHE HAD TO THE FULL LIMIT ALLOWED OF HER READING AND HER ENVIRONMENT THE LITERARY SENSE. NOW THAT SHE WAS A YOUNG WOMAN SHE COULD NEVER BE HAPPY LONG BECAUSE SHE WANTED TO WATCH HER HEART'S HAPPINESS AND IT USED TO STOP THEN JUST AS THE TEARS HAD. HE HAD ASKED HER TO MEET HIM AT CANNON STREET HE HAD SOMETHING TO SAY TO HER AND AT HOME IT WAS DIFFICULT TO GET A QUIET HALF HOUR BECAUSE OF HER LITTLE SISTERS. AND CURIOUSLY ENOUGH SHE WAS HARDLY CURIOUS AT ALL ABOUT WHAT HE MIGHT HAVE TO SAY. SHE ONLY WISHED FOR MAY AND THE ORCHARD INSTEAD OF JANUARY AND THE DINGY DUSTY WAITING ROOM THE PLAIN FACED PREOCCUPIED TRAVELLERS THE DIM DESOLATE WEATHER. THE SETTING OF THE SCENE SEEMED TO HER ALL IMPORTANT. HER DRESS WAS BROWN HER JACKET BLACK AND HER HAT WAS HOME TRIMMED. YET SHE LOOKED ENTRANCINGLY PRETTY TO HIM AS HE CAME THROUGH THE HEAVY SWING DOORS. HE WOULD HARDLY HAVE KNOWN HER IN GREEN AND WHITE MUSLIN AND AN ORCHARD FOR THEIR LOVE HAD BEEN BORN AND BRED IN TOWN HIGHBURY NEW PARK TO BE EXACT. HE CAME TOWARDS HER HE WAS FIVE MINUTES LATE. SHE HAD GROWN ANXIOUS AS THE ONE WHO WAITS ALWAYS DOES AND SHE WAS EXTREMELY GLAD TO SEE HIM BUT SHE KNEW THAT A LATE LOVER SHOULD BE TREATED WITH A PROVOKING COLDNESS ONE CAN RELENT PRETTILY LATER ON SO SHE GAVE HIM A LIMP HAND AND NO GREETING. LET'S GO OUT HE SAID SHALL WE WALK ALONG THE EMBANKMENT OR GO SOMEWHERE ON THE UNDERGROUND. IT WAS BITTERLY COLD BUT THE EMBANKMENT WAS MORE ROMANTIC THAN A RAILWAY CARRIAGE. HE OUGHT TO INSIST ON THE RAILWAY CARRIAGE HE PROBABLY WOULD SO SHE SAID. OH THE EMBANKMENT PLEASE AND FELT A STING OF ANNOYANCE AND DISAPPOINTMENT WHEN HE ACQUIESCED. THEY DID NOT SPEAK AGAIN TILL THEY HAD GONE THROUGH THE LITTLE BACK STREETS PAST THE POLICE STATION AND THE MUSTARD FACTORY AND WERE ON THE BROAD PAVEMENT OF QUEEN VICTORIA STREET. HE HAD BEEN LATE HE HAD OFFERED NO EXCUSE NO EXPLANATION. SHE HAD DONE THE PROPER THING SHE HAD AWAITED THESE WITH DIGNIFIED RESERVE AND NOW SHE WAS INVOLVED IN THE MESHES OF A SILENCE THAT SHE COULD NOT BREAK. HOW EASY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE ORCHARD. THEN HE WOULD HAVE HAD TO SAY SOMETHING. BUT HERE THE ONLY THING THAT OCCURRED TO HER WAS TO STOP AND LOOK IN ONE OF THE SHOPS TILL HE SHOULD ASK HER WHAT SHE WAS LOOKING AT. AND HOW COMMON AND MEAN THAT WOULD BE COMPARED WITH THE BLOSSOMING BOUGH AND BESIDES THE SHOPS THEY WERE PASSING HAD NOTHING IN THE WINDOWS EXCEPT CHEAP PASTRY AND MODELS OF STEAM ENGINES. WHY ON EARTH DIDN'T HE SPEAK HE HAD NEVER BEEN LIKE THIS BEFORE. HE HAD SOMETHING TO SAY SOMETHING THAT WAS TRYING TO GET ITSELF SAID. THE KEEN WIND THRUST ITSELF EVEN INSIDE THE HIGH COLLAR OF HER JACKET. HER HANDS AND FEET WERE ACHING WITH COLD. HOW WARM IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IN THE ORCHARD. I'M FREEZING SHE SAID SUDDENLY LET'S GO AND HAVE SOME TEA. OF COURSE IF YOU LIKE HE SAID UNCOMFORTABLY YET SHE COULD SEE HE WAS GLAD THAT SHE HAD BROKEN THAT DESOLATE SILENCE. SEATED AT A MARBLE TABLE THE PLACE WAS NEARLY EMPTY SHE FURTIVELY WATCHED HIS FACE IN THE GLASS AND WHAT SHE SAW THERE THRILLED HER. SOME GREAT SORROW HAD COME TO HIM. SHE WOULD HAVE SHARED HIS SORROW AND SHOWN HERSELF HALF WIFE HALF ANGEL FROM HEAVEN IN THIS DARK HOUR. WELL IT WAS NOT TOO LATE. SHE COULD BEGIN NOW BUT HOW

+HE HAD ORDERED THE TEA AND HER QUESTION WAS STILL UNANSWERED YET SHE MUST SPEAK. WHEN SHE DID HER WORDS DID NOT FIT THE MOUTH OF THE GIRL IN THE ORCHARD BUT THEN IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MAY THERE AND THIS WAS JANUARY. SHE SAID HOW FRIGHTFULLY COLD IT IS. YES ISN'T IT HE SAID. THE WAITRESS BROUGHT THE TWO THICK CUPS OF TEA AND LOOKED AT HIM WITH A TEPID CURIOSITY. AS SOON AS THE TWO WERE ALONE AGAIN HE LEANED HIS ELBOWS ON THE MARBLE AND SPOKE. THIS PREAMBLE SENT A SHIVER OF DREAD DOWN HER SPINE. WHAT HAD HE DONE A MURDER A BANK ROBBERY MARRIED SOMEONE ELSE. WELL I WENT TO THE SIMPSONS DANCE ON TUESDAY OH WHY WEREN'T YOU THERE ETHEL AND THERE WAS A GIRL IN PINK AND I DANCED THREE OR FOUR TIMES WITH HER SHE WAS RATHER LIKE YOU SIDE FACE AND THEN AFTER SUPPER IN THE CONSERVATORY I I TALKED NONSENSE BUT ONLY A VERY LITTLE DEAR AND SHE KEPT LOOKING AT ME SO AS IF SHE EXPECTED ME TO TO AND SO I KISSED HER. AND YESTERDAY I HAD A LETTER FROM HER AND SHE SEEMS TO EXPECT TO THINK AND I THOUGHT I OUGHT TO TELL YOU DARLING. OH ETHEL DO TRY TO FORGIVE ME I HAVEN'T ANSWERED HER LETTER. WELL SHE SAID. A SHOCK OF UNBELIEVABLE RELIEF TINGLED THROUGH HER SO THAT WAS ALL WHAT WAS IT COMPARED WITH HER FEARS. WHAT OPINION WOULD HE FORM OF THE PURITY OF HER MIND THE INNOCENCE OF HER SOUL IF AN INCIDENT LIKE THIS FAILED TO SHOCK HER DEEPLY. HE HIMSELF WAS EVIDENTLY A PREY TO THE MOST RENDING REMORSE. HE HAD TOLD HER OF THE THING AS ONE TELLS OF A CRIME. AS THE CONFESSION OF A CRIME SHE MUST RECEIVE IT. FOLLOWING THE TINGLE OF RELIEF CAME A SHARP SICKENING PINCH OF JEALOUSY AND MORTIFICATION THESE INSPIRED HER. I DON'T WONDER YOU WERE AFRAID TO TELL ME SHE BEGAN YOU DON'T LOVE ME YOU'VE NEVER LOVED ME I WAS AN IDIOT TO BELIEVE YOU DID. YOU KNOW I DO HE SAID IT WAS HATEFUL OF ME BUT I COULDN'T HELP IT. THOSE FOUR TRUE WORDS WOUNDED HER MORE THAN ALL THE REST. COULDN'T HELP IT THEN HOW CAN I EVER TRUST YOU. EVEN IF WE WERE MARRIED I COULD NEVER BE SURE YOU WEREN'T KISSING SOME HORRID GIRL OR OTHER. HE COULD NOT SAY AND SO I AM ON THE WHOLE WHICH WAS WHAT HE THOUGHT. HER TEARS WERE FALLING HOT AND FAST BETWEEN FACE AND VEIL FOR SHE HAD TALKED TILL SHE WAS VERY SORRY INDEED FOR HERSELF. FORGIVE ME DEAR HE SAID THEN SHE ROSE TO THE OCCASION. NEVER SHE SAID HER EYES FLASHING THROUGH HER TEARS. YOU'VE DECEIVED ME ONCE YOU'D DO IT AGAIN NO IT'S ALL OVER YOU'VE BROKEN MY HEART AND DESTROYED MY FAITH IN HUMAN NATURE. I HOPE I SHALL NEVER SEE YOU AGAIN. DO YOU THINK I'M NOT SORRY NOW. SHE WISHED THAT THEY WERE AT HOME AND NOT IN THIS HORRIBLE TEA SHOP UNDER THE CURIOUS EYES OF THE WAITRESSES. HE WOULD COME TO MORROW HOWEVER AND THEN AT PRESENT THE THING TO COMPASS WAS A DIGNIFIED PARTING. GOOD BYE SHE SAID I'M GOING HOME AND IT'S GOOD BYE FOR EVER. NO IT'S ONLY PAINFUL FOR BOTH OF US. THERE'S NO MORE TO BE SAID YOU'VE BETRAYED ME. I DIDN'T THINK A DECENT MAN COULD DO SUCH THINGS SHE WAS PULLING ON HER GLOVES GO HOME AND GLOAT OVER IT ALL. AND THAT POOR GIRL YOU'VE BROKEN HER HEART TOO. THIS REALLY WAS A MASTER STROKE OF NOBILITY. HE STOOD UP SUDDENLY DO YOU MEAN IT. HE SAID AND HIS TONE SHOULD HAVE WARNED HER. ARE YOU REALLY GOING TO THROW ME OVER FOR A THING LIKE THIS. YES GOOD BYE HE STOOD UP SUDDENLY. AND HE STRODE DOWN BETWEEN THE MARBLE TABLES AND OUT BY THE SWING DOOR IT WAS A VERY GOOD EXIT. AT THE CORNER HE REMEMBERED THAT HE HAD GONE AWAY WITHOUT PAYING FOR THE TEA AND HIS NATURAL IMPULSE WAS TO GO BACK AND REMEDY THAT ERROR. HE CHECKED THE SILLY IMPULSE. WHAT WAS TEA AND THE PRICE OF TEA IN THIS CATACLYSMIC OVERTHROWING OF THE UNIVERSE. SO SHE WAITED FOR HIM IN VAIN AND AT LAST PAID FOR THE TEA HERSELF AND WENT HOME TO WAIT THERE AND THERE TOO IN VAIN FOR HE NEVER CAME BACK TO HER. THEREFORE HE NEVER DREAMING THAT THE LITERARY SENSE HAD INSPIRED HER TOO PERCEIVED THAT TO THE JILTED LOVER TWO COURSES ONLY ARE POSSIBLE SUICIDE OR THE FRONT. SO HE ENLISTED AND WENT TO SOUTH AFRICA AND HE NEVER CAME HOME COVERED WITH MEDALS AND GLORY WHICH WAS RATHER HIS IDEA TO THE FEW SIMPLE WORDS OF EXPLANATION THAT WOULD HAVE MADE ALL STRAIGHT AND REPAID HER AND HIM FOR ALL THE PAST

+THE LAST STRAINS OF THE ILL TREATED ILL FATED INTERMEZZO HAD DIED AWAY AND AFTER THEM HAD DIED AWAY ALSO THE RUMBLING OF THE WHEELS OF THE MURDEROUS BARREL ORGAN THAT HAD SO GAILY EXECUTED THAT ALONG WITH THE NINE OTHER TUNES OF ITS REPERTORY TO THE ADMIRATION OF THE HOUSEMAID AT THE WINDOW OF THE HOUSE OPPOSITE AND THE CROWING DELIGHT OF THE TWO BABIES NEXT DOOR. THE YOUNG MAN DREW A DEEP BREATH OF RELIEF AND LIGHTED THE WAX CANDLES IN THE SOLID SILVER CANDLESTICKS ON HIS WRITING TABLE FOR NOW THE LATE SUMMER DUSK WAS FALLING AND THAT ORGAN PLEASE HEAVEN MADE FULL THE MEASURE OF THE DAY'S APPOINTED TORTURE. THEN THERE WAS SILENCE THEN A SIGH AND THE SOUND OF LIGHT MOVING FEET ON THE GRAVEL. HE THREW BACK THE CURTAIN AND LEANED OUT OF THE WINDOW. HERE HE CALLED TO THE FIGURE THAT MOVED SLOWLY TOWARDS THE GATE. SHE TURNED QUICKLY AND CAME BACK TWO STEPS. SHE WORE THE DRESS OF A CONTADINA A VERY SMART DRESS INDEED AND HER HANDS LOOKED SMALL AND WHITE. WON'T YOU SING AGAIN HE ASKED. SHE HESITATED THEN STRUCK A CHORD OR TWO AND BEGAN ANOTHER OF THOSE LITTLE TUNEFUL ITALIAN SONGS ALL STARS AND FLOWERS AND HEARTS OF GOLD. AND AGAIN HE LISTENED WITH A QUIET PLEASURE. NEVER HAD ANY ACT SEEMED SO IMPOSSIBLE. AREN'T YOU TIRED HE SAID WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO SIT DOWN AND REST. THERE IS A SEAT IN THE GARDEN AT THE SIDE OF THE HOUSE AGAIN SHE HESITATED. THEN SHE TURNED TOWARDS THE QUARTER INDICATED AND DISAPPEARED ROUND THE LAUREL BUSHES. HE WAS ALONE IN THE HOUSE HIS PEOPLE AND THE SERVANTS WERE IN THE COUNTRY THE WOMAN WHO CAME TO DO FOR HIM HAD LEFT FOR THE NIGHT. HE WENT INTO THE DINING ROOM DARK WITH MAHOGANY AND DAMASK FOUND WINE AND CAKE IN THE SIDEBOARD CUPBOARD PUT THEM ON A TRAY AND TOOK THEM OUT THROUGH THE GARDEN DOOR AND ROUND TO THE CORNER WHERE ALMOST SHELTERED BY LABURNUMS AND HAWTHORNS FROM THE VIEW OF THE PEOPLE NEXT DOOR THE SINGER AND HER GUITAR RESTED ON THE IRON SEAT. I DON'T UNDERSTAND A SINGLE WORD YOU SAY. IT WOULD HAVE TURNED OUT ALL RIGHT WITH THEM. LET ME GO THANK YOU VERY MUCH I AM SURE YOU MEANT TO BE KIND AND THEN SHE BEGAN TO CRY AGAIN. LOOK HERE HE SAID THIS IS ALL NONSENSE YOU KNOW YOU ARE TIRED OUT AND THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WHAT IS IT. DO DRINK THIS AND THEN TELL ME PERHAPS I CAN HELP YOU. SHE DRANK OBEDIENTLY THEN SHE SAID I HAVE NOT HAD ANYTHING TO EAT SINCE LAST NIGHT. HE HURRIEDLY CUT CAKE AND PRESSED IT UPON HER. HE HAD NO TIME TO THINK BUT HE WAS AWARE THAT THIS WAS THE MOST EXCITING ADVENTURE THAT HAD EVER HAPPENED TO HIM. HIS VOICE WAS KINDER THAN HE MEANT IT TO BE HER EYES FILLED AGAIN WITH TEARS. OH I NEVER KNEW BEFORE WHAT DEVILS PEOPLE ARE TO YOU WHEN YOU'RE POOR. IS IT ONLY THAT YOU'RE POOR WHY THAT'S NOTHING I'M POOR TOO SHE LAUGHED. I'M NOT POOR NOT REALLY. WHAT IS IT THEN YOU'VE QUARRELLED WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND AH TELL ME AND LET ME TRY TO HELP YOU. YOU ARE KIND BUT WELL THEN IT'S LIKE THIS. BUT SURELY HE DIDN'T LEAVE YOU WITHOUT MONEY. HER LITTLE FOOT TAPPED THE GRAVEL IMPATIENTLY. I'M COMING TO THAT SHE SAID OF COURSE HE DIDN'T. HE TOLD ME TO STAY ON AT THE HOTEL AND I DID AND THEN ONE NIGHT WHEN I WAS AT THE THEATRE MY MAID A HORRID FRENCH THING WE GOT IN PARIS PACKED UP ALL MY TRUNKS AND TOOK ALL MY MONEY AND PAID THE BILL AND WENT. SHE STOPPED SHORT AND LOOKED AT HIM THROUGH THE DUSK. HE DID NOT SPEAK BUT WHATEVER SHE SAW IN HIS FACE IT SATISFIED HER. SHE SAID AGAIN YOU ARE KIND. GO ON HE SAID TELL ME ALL ABOUT IT. WELL THEN I WENT INTO LODGINGS THAT WICKED WOMAN HAD LEFT ME ONE STREET SUIT AND TO DAY THEY TURNED ME OUT BECAUSE MY MONEY WAS ALL GONE. I HAD A LITTLE MONEY IN MY PURSE AND THIS DRESS HAD BEEN ORDERED FOR A FANCY BALL IT IS SMART ISN'T IT AND IT CAME AFTER THAT WRETCH HAD GONE AND THE GUITAR TOO AND I THOUGHT I COULD MAKE A LITTLE MONEY I REALLY CAN SING THOUGH YOU MIGHTN'T THINK IT. AND I'VE BEEN AT IT SINCE FIVE O'CLOCK AND I'VE ONLY GOT ONE SHILLING AND SEVEN PENCE. LET ME THINK HE SAID OH HOW GLAD I AM THAT YOU HAPPENED TO COME THIS WAY. I SHALL LOCK UP ALL THE DOORS AND WINDOWS IN THE HOUSE AND THEN I SHALL GIVE YOU MY LATCH KEY AND YOU CAN LET YOURSELF IN AND STAY THE NIGHT HERE THERE IS NO ONE IN THE HOUSE. I WILL CATCH THE NIGHT TRAIN AND BRING MY MOTHER UP TO MORROW THEN WE WILL SEE WHAT CAN BE DONE

+LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT IS ALL NONSENSE WE KNOW WE WHO HAVE COME TO FORTY YEAR BUT AT TWENTY ONE ONE DOES NOT SOMEHOW RECOGNISE IT FOR THE NONSENSE IT IS. BUT DON'T YOU KNOW ANYONE IN LONDON HE ASKED IN A SENSIBLE POSTSCRIPT. THERE'S NO ONE I COULD LET KNOW. YOU SEE PAPA'S SO VERY RICH AND AT HOME THEY EXPECT ME TO TO GET ACQUAINTED WITH DUKES AND THINGS AND SHE STOPPED. AMERICAN HEIRESSES ARE EXPECTED TO MARRY ENGLISH DUKES HE SAID WITH A DISTINCT PHYSICAL PAIN AT HIS HEART. IT WASN'T I WHO SAID THAT SAID THE GIRL SMILING BUT THAT'S SO ANYHOW AND THEN SHE SIGHED. SO IT'S YOUR DESTINY TO MARRY A DUKE IS IT THE YOUNG MAN SPOKE SLOWLY. ALL THE SAME HE ADDED IRRELEVANTLY YOU SHALL HAVE THE LATCH KEY. YOU ARE KIND SHE SAID FOR THE THIRD TIME AND REACHED HER HAND OUT TO HIM HE DID NOT KISS IT THEN ONLY TOOK IT IN HIS AND FELT HOW SMALL AND COLD IT WAS THEN IT WAS TAKEN AWAY. THE LADY AND THE GUITAR CERTAINLY PASSED THE NIGHT AT HILL VIEW VILLA BUT WHEN HIS MOTHER VERY ANGRY AND VERY FRIGHTENED CAME UP WITH HIM AT ABOUT NOON THE HOUSE LOOKED JUST AS USUAL AND NO ONE WAS THERE BUT THE CHARWOMAN. AN ADVENTURESS I TOLD YOU SO. THE SILVER IS ALL RIGHT THANK GOODNESS SHE SAID BUT YOUR BANJO GIRL HAS TAKEN A PAIR OF YOUR SISTER'S SILK STOCKINGS AND THOSE NEW SHOES OF HERS WITH THE SILVER BUCKLES AND SHE'S LEFT THESE. SHE HELD OUT A PAIR OF LITTLE PATENT LEATHER SHOES VERY WORN AND DUSTY THE SLENDER SILKEN WEB OF A BLACK STOCKING BROWN WITH DUST HUNG FROM HER HAND HE ANSWERED NOTHING. SHE SPENT THE REST OF THAT DAY IN SEARCHING THE HOUSE FOR FURTHER LOSSES BUT ALL THINGS WERE IN THEIR PLACE EXCEPT THE SILVER HANDLED BUTTON HOOK AND THAT AS EVEN HIS SISTER OWNED HAD BEEN MISSING FOR MONTHS. YET HIS FAMILY WOULD NEVER LEAVE HIM TO KEEP HOUSE ALONE AGAIN THEY SAID HE IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED AND PERHAPS THEY ARE RIGHT. THE HALF DOZEN PAIRS OF EMBROIDERED SILK STOCKINGS AND THE DAINTY FRENCH SILVER BUCKLED SHOES WHICH ARRIVED A MONTH LATER ADDRESSED TO MISS HILL VIEW VILLA ONLY CONFIRMED THEIR DISTRUST. HE MUST HAVE HAD THEM SENT THAT TAMBOURINE GIRL COULD NEVER HAVE AFFORDED THESE WHY THEY WERE PURE SILK AND THE QUALITY. IT WAS PLAIN THAT HIS CASTANET GIRL HIS MOTHER AND SISTER TOOK A PLEASURE IN CREDITING HER DAILY WITH SOME FRESH AND UNPLEASING INSTRUMENT COULD HAVE HAD NEITHER TASTE MONEY NOR HONESTY TO SUCH A POINT AS THIS

+SAN FRANCISCO'S CARE FREE SPIRIT WAS FULLY EXEMPLIFIED BEFORE THE ASHES OF THE GREAT FIRE OF NINETEEN O SIX WERE COLD. ON EVERY HAND ONE COULD FIND LITTLE EATING PLACES ESTABLISHED IN THE STREETS SOME MADE OF ABANDONED BOXES OTHERS OF DEBRIS FROM THE BURNED BUILDINGS AND SOME IN VACANT BASEMENTS AND LITTLE STORE ROOMS WHILE A FEW ENTERPRISING INDIVIDUALS IMPROVISED WHEELED DINING ROOMS AND WENT FROM ONE PART OF THE CITY TO ANOTHER SERVING MEALS. THE VEIN OF HUMOR OF IRREPRESSIBLE EFFERVESCENCE OF SPIRIT BORN OF BOHEMIANISM GAVE TO THESE EATING PLACES HIGH SOUNDING NAMES AND MANY WERE COVERED WITH WITTY SIGNS WHICH LAUGHED IN THE FACE OF FATE. THIS WAS ON THE CORNER OF FILLMORE AND ELLIS AND HAD LARGE PATRONAGE IT BEING CROWDED NIGHTLY WITH MEN AND WOMEN WHO SEEMED TO FORGET THAT SAN FRANCISCO HAD BEEN DESTROYED. THOMPSON OPENED A LARGE RESTAURANT IN O'FARRELL STREET JUST ABOVE FILLMORE AND FOR TWO YEARS OR MORE DID A THRIVING BUSINESS HIS PLACE BEING NOTED FOR ITS GOOD COOKING AND ITS SPLENDID SERVICE. ONE OF HIS WAITERS PHIL TYSON WAS ONE OF THE EARLIER ONES TO GO BACK INTO THE BURNED DISTRICT TO BEGIN BUSINESS AND HE OPENED A RESTAURANT CALLED THE DEL MONTE IN POWELL STREET NEAR MARKET BUT IT WAS TOO EARLY FOR SUCCESS AND CLOSED AFTER A SHORT CAREER. THOMPSON ENLISTED OTHERS TO JOIN WITH HIM IN OPENING A MAGNIFICENT PLACE UNDER THE NEW FLOOD BUILDING AT THE CORNER OF POWELL AND MARKET STREET BUT THROUGH FAULTY UNDERSTANDING OF FINANCIAL POWER THOMPSON WAS COMPELLED TO GIVE UP HIS INTEREST AND THE PLACE AFTERWARD CLOSED. IT HAS SINCE BEEN REOPENED UNDER THE NAME OF THE PORTOLA LOUVRE WHERE NOW CROWDS ASSEMBLE NIGHTLY TO LISTEN TO MUSIC AND WITNESS CABARET PERFORMANCES. HERE AS WELL AS IN A NUMBER OF OTHER PLACES ONE CAN WELL APPRECIATE THE COLLOQUIAL DEFINITION OF CABARET. THAT WHICH TAKES THE REST OUT OF RESTAURANT AND PUTS THE DIN IN DINNER. IF ONE LIKES NOISE AND DISTRACTION WHILE EATING SUCH PLACES ARE GOOD TO PATRONIZE. ACROSS THE STREET FROM THE PORTOLA LOUVRE AT FIFTEEN POWELL STREET IS THE MODERNIZED TECHAU TAVERN NOW KNOWN AS TECHAU'S. HERE THERE IS ALWAYS GOOD MUSIC AND FOOD WELL COOKED AND WELL SERVED AND ALWAYS A LIVELY CROWD DURING THE LUNCHEON DINNER AND AFTER THEATRE HOURS THE ROOM IS NOT LARGE BUT ITS DIMENSIONS ARE GREATLY MAGNIFIED OWING TO THE COVERING OF MIRRORS WHICH LINE THE WALLS. THIS GARISH DISPLAY OF MIRRORS AND ELABORATE DECORATION OF CEILING AND PILLARS GIVES IT THE APPEARANCE OF THE ABODE OF SATURNALIA BUT DECORUM IS THE RULE AMONG THE PATRONS. JOHN TAIT IS THE PRESIDING SPIRIT HERE HE HAVING MADE REPUTATION AS CLUB MANAGER AND THEN AS MANAGER OF THE CLIFF HOUSE. ONE OF THE PARTNERS HERE WAS CARL ZINKAND WHO RAN THE OLD ZINKAND'S BEFORE THE FIRE. WHILE THESE THREE RESTAURANTS ARE OF SIMILAR TYPE NEITHER HAS THE PRE FIRE ATMOSPHERE THEY ARE LIVELY ALWAYS WITH MUSIC AND GAY THRONGS AND SERVE GOOD FOOD. THE POODLE DOG HAS A HOTEL ATTACHMENT WHERE ONE MAY GET ROOMS OR FULL APARTMENTS. IF YOU KNOW HOW TO ORDER AND DO NOT CARE TO COUNT THE COST WHEN YOU ORDER PROBABLY THE BEST DINNER AT THESE RESTAURANTS CAN BE HAD AT EITHER BLANCO'S OR THE POODLE DOG. THE CUISINE IS OF THE BEST AND THE CHEFS RANK AT THE TOP OF THEIR ART. PRICES ARE HIGHER THAN AT THE OTHER RESTAURANTS MENTIONED BUT ONE CERTAINLY GETS THE BEST THERE IS PREPARED IN THE BEST WAY. BUT THE SAME FOOD PREPARED EQUALLY WELL IS TO BE FOUND IN A NUMBER OF LESS PRETENTIOUS PLACES. AT THE TWO MENTIONED ONE PAYS FOR THE SURROUNDINGS AS WELL AS FOR THE FOOD AND SOMETIMES THIS IS WORTH PAYING FOR. THE RESTAURANTS OF THE PRESENT DAY THAT APPROACH NEAREST THE OLD BOHEMIAN RESTAURANTS OF PRE FIRE DAYS OF THE FRENCH CLASS ARE JACK'S IN SACRAMENTO STREET BETWEEN MONTGOMERY AND KEARNY FELIX IN MONTGOMERY STREET BETWEEN CLAY AND WASHINGTON AND THE POODLE DOG BERGEZ FRANKS IN BUSH STREET BETWEEN KEARNY AND GRANT AVENUE. IN EITHER OF THESE RESTAURANTS YOU WILL BE SERVED WITH THE BEST THE MARKET AFFORDS COOKED THE RIGHT WAY. IN CLAY STREET OPPOSITE THE CALIFORNIA MARKET IS THE NEW FRANK'S ONE OF THE BEST OF THE ITALIAN RESTAURANTS AND MUCH PATRONIZED BY ITALIAN MERCHANTS

+NEXT TO IT IS COPPA'S BUT IT IS NO LONGER RUN BY COPPA. IN THIS SAME DISTRICT IS THE MINT IN COMMERCIAL STREET BETWEEN MONTGOMERY AND KEARNY STREETS. IT HAS CHANGED FROM WHAT IT WAS IN THE OLD DAYS BUT IS STILL AN EXCELLENT PLACE TO DINE. THE COOKING IS GOOD AND THE VARIETY WHAT THE MARKET AFFORDS. IN WASHINGTON STREET JUST OFF COLUMBUS AVENUE IS BONINI'S BARN MAKING GREAT PRETENSE THROUGH AN UNIQUE IDEA. SO FAR AS THE RESTAURANT IS CONCERNED THE FOOD IS A LITTLE BELOW THE AVERAGE OF ITALIAN RESTAURANTS. TABLES AND CHAIRS ARE CRUDE IN THE EXTREME AND OLD TIME LANTERNS ARE USED FOR LIGHTING. IT IS AN IDEA THAT IS WORTH WHILE BUT UNFORTUNATELY THE PROPRIETORS DEPEND TOO MUCH ON THE DECORATIVE FEATURE AND TOO LITTLE ON THE FOOD AND HOW THEY SERVE IT. THE FLY TRAP AND CHARLIE'S FASHION THE FIRST IN SUTTER STREET NEAR KEARNY AND THE OTHER IN MARKET NEAR SUTTER SERVE WELL COOKED FOODS ESPECIALLY SOUP SALADS AND FISH. OF COURSE THESE ARE NOT THE ENTIRE MENUS BUT OF ALL THE WELL PREPARED DISHES THESE ARE THEIR BEST. FELIX MENTIONED BEFORE ALSO MAKES A SPECIALTY OF HIS FAMILY SOUP WHICH IS EXCELLENT. BOTH SERVE GOOD SPANISH DINNERS AT REASONABLE PRICES. UNDER THE MONADNOCK BUILDING IN MARKET STREET NEAR THIRD IS JULE'S WELL LIKED AND WELL PATRONIZED BECAUSE OF ITS GOOD COOKING AND GOOD SERVICE. JULE IS ONE OF THE NOTED RESTAURATEURS OF THE CITY HAVING ATTAINED HIGH CELEBRITY BEFORE THE FIRE. HIS PRICES ARE MODERATE AND HIS COOKING AND VIANDS OF THE BEST AND WILL SATISFY THE MOST CRITICAL OF THE GOURMETS. AT THE CORNER OF MARKET AND EDDY STREETS IS THE ODEON DOWN IN A BASEMENT WITH DECORATIONS OF MOST GARISH ORDER. THERE IS A GOOD CHEF AND THE PLACE HAS QUITE A VOGUE AMONG LOVERS OF GOOD THINGS TO EAT. OR YOU MAY ORDER ANYTHING IN THE MARKET AND YOU WILL FIND IT COOKED THE BEST WAY. ONE OF THE SPECIALTIES OF JACK'S IS FISH FOR WHICH THE RESTAURANT IS NOTED. IT IS ALWAYS STRICTLY FRESH AND BOOKED TO SUIT THE MOST FASTIDIOUS TASTE. ALL YOU CAN SEE FROM THE STREET AS YOU PASS AROUND THE CORNER FROM MARKET IS A SIGN AND SOME STAIRS LEADING DOWN INTO A BASEMENT BUT DO NOT DRAW BACK JUST BECAUSE IT IS A BASEMENT RESTAURANT FOR IF YOU DO YOU WILL MISS ONE OF THE VERY FEW REAL BOHEMIAN RESTAURANTS OF SAN FRANCISCO. POSSIBLY OUR POINT OF VIEW WILL NOT COINCIDE WITH THAT OF OTHERS BUT WHILE THERE ARE DOZENS OF OTHER BOHEMIAN RESTAURANTS THERE IS BUT ONE HEIDELBERG INN. HERE IS ABSOLUTE FREEDOM FROM IRKSOME CONVENTIONALITY OF OTHER PEOPLE AND NONE OF THE NEAR BOHEMIANISM OF SO MANY PLACES CLAIMING THE TITLE. AT THE HEIDELBERG INN ONE NEED NEVER FEAR OBTRUSIVENESS ON THE PART OF OTHER VISITORS FOR HERE EVERYBODY ATTENDS STRICTLY TO HIS OR HER OWN PARTY ENJOYING A CAMARADERIE THAT HAS ALL THE GENUINE WHOLE SOULED COMPANIONSHIP FOUND ONLY WHERE GERMAN FAMILIES ARE ACCUSTOMED TO CONGREGATE TO SEEK RELAXATION FROM THE TOIL AND WORRY OF THE DAY. HERE YOU DO NOT FIND OBTRUSIVE WAITERS BRUSHING IMAGINARY CRUMBS FROM YOUR CHAIR WITH OBSEQUIOUS HAND NOR OVER ZEALOUS STEWARDS SOLICITOUS OF YOUR FOOD'S QUALITY. IT IS ALL PERFECT BECAUSE IT IS MADE PERFECT BY GOOD MANAGEMENT. HERE ARE GERMAN FAMILIES FROM GROSSFADER AND GROSSMUTTER DOWN TO THE NEWEST GRANDCHILD SITTING AND ENJOYING THEIR BEER AND LISTENING TO SUCH MUSIC AS CAN BE HEARD NOWHERE ELSE IN SAN FRANCISCO AS THEY EAT THEIR SANDWICHES OF LIMBURGER OR MORE DAINTY DISHES ACCORDING TO THEIR TASTES. ONE CAN ALMOST IMAGINE HIMSELF IN ONE OF THE FAMOUS RATHSKELLERS OF OLD HEIDELBERG NOT AT THE SCHLOSS OF COURSE FOR HERE YOU CANNOT LOOK DOWN ON THE WEISER AS IT FLOWS BENEATH THE WINDOWS OF THE GREAT WINE STUBE ON THE HILL. BUT YOU HAVE THE REAL ATMOSPHERE AND THIS IS ENHANCED BY THE MOTTOES IN DECORATION AND THE FLAGONS STEMS AND PLAQUES THAT ADORN THE PILLARS AS WELL AS TYPICAL GERMAN ENVIRONMENT

+IT IS WHEN THE MARTIAL STRAINS OF DE WACHT AM RHEIN ARE HEARD FROM THE ORCHESTRA WHICH OF ITSELF IS AN INSTITUTION THAT THE TRUE CAMARADERIE OF THE PLACE IS APPRECIATED FOR THEN GUESTS WAITERS BARKEEPERS AND EVEN THE EAGLE EYED GRAY HAIRED MANAGER JOIN IN THE SWELLING CHORUS AND YOU CAN WELL UNDERSTAND WHY GERMAN SOLDIERS ARE INSPIRED TO MARCH TO VICTORY WHEN THEY HEAR THESE STIRRING CHORDS. BUT THERE IS OTHER MUSIC SOMETIMES NEITHER INSPIRING NOR BEAUTIFUL WHEN HEARD IN A GERMAN RATHSKELLER THE MUSIC OF RAG TIME. IF THERE IS ANYTHING FUNNIER THAN A GERMAN ORCHESTRA TRYING TO PLAY RAG TIME MUSIC WE HAVE NEVER HEARD IT. IT IS UNCONSCIOUS HUMOR ON PART OF THE ORCHESTRA CONSEQUENTLY IS ALL THE MORE EXCRUCIATING. BUT IF YOU REALLY LOVE GOOD MUSIC MUSIC THAT HAS MELODY AND RHYTHM AND SOOTHING CADENCES GO TO THE HEIDELBERG INN AND LISTEN TO THE CONCERT WHICH IS A FEATURE OF THE PLACE EVERY EVENING. AND WHILE YOU ARE LISTENING TO THE MUSIC YOU CAN ENJOY SUCH FOOD AS IS TO BE FOUND NOWHERE ELSE IN SAN FRANCISCO FOR IT IS DISTINCTLY HEIDELBERGIAN. WE FINALLY GOT HIM TO SELECT THE ONE PRIZED ABOVE ALL OTHERS AND THIS IS WHAT CHEF SCHEILER GAVE US. TAKE FOUR POUNDS OF CLEAR BEEF FROM EITHER THE SHOULDER OR RUMP AND PICKLE IT FOR TWO DAYS IN ONE HALF GALLON OF CLARET AND ONE HALF GALLON OF GOOD WINE VINEGAR NOT CIDER. TO THE PICKLE ADD TWO LARGE ONIONS CUT IN QUARTERS TWO FRESH CARROTS AND ABOUT ONE OUNCE OF MIXED WHOLE ALLSPICE BLACK PEPPERS CLOVES AND BAY LEAVES. WHEN READY FOR COOKING TAKE THE MEAT OUT OF THE BRINE AND PUT IN A ROASTING PAN. PUT IN THE OVEN AND BROWN TO A GOLDEN COLOR. THEN TAKE IT OUT OF THE ROASTING PAN AND PUT IT INTO A CASSEROLE AFTER SPRINKLING IT WITH TWO OUNCES OF FLOUR. PUT INTO THE OVEN AGAIN AND COOK FOR HALF AN HOUR BASTING FREQUENTLY WITH THE ORIGINAL BRINE. WHEN DONE TAKE THE MEAT OUT OF THE SAUCE. STRAIN THE SAUCE THROUGH A FINE COLLANDER AND ADD A FEW RAISINS A PIECE OF HONEY CAKE OR GINGER SNAPS AND THE MEAT OF ONE FRESH TOMATO. SEASON WITH SALT AND PEPPER AND A LITTLE SUGAR TO TASTE. SLICE AND SERVE WITH THE SAUCE OVER IT. FOR THOSE WHO LIKE GERMAN DISHES AND GERMAN COOKING IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO CONFINE YOURSELF TO THE HEIDELBERG INN FOR BOTH THE HOF BRAU IN MARKET JUST ABOVE FOURTH STREET AND THE GERMAN HOUSE RATHSKELLER AT TURK AND POLK STREETS ARE GOOD PLACES WHERE YOU CAN GET WHAT YOU WANT. THE HOF BRAU HOWEVER IS LESS DISTINCTIVELY GERMAN AS THE GREATER NUMBER OF ITS PATRONS ARE AMERICANS. THE SPECIALTY OF THE HOF BRAU IS ABALONE'S AND THEY HAVE AS A FEATURE THIS SHELL FISH COOKED IN SEVERAL WAYS. THEY ALSO HAVE AS THE CHEF IN CHARGE OF THE ABALONE DISHES HERBERT FORMERLY CHEF FOR ONE OF THE YACHT CLUBS OF THE COAST WHO CLAIMS TO HAVE THE ONLY PROPER RECIPE FOR MAKING ABALONE'S TENDER. UNDER ORDINARY CIRCUMSTANCES THE ABALONE IS TOUGH AND UNPALATABLE BUT AFTER THE DEFT MANIPULATION OF HERBERT THEY ARE TENDER AND MAKE A FINE DISH EITHER FRIED AS CHOWDER OR A LA NEWBERG. IN ADDITION TO ABALONE'S THE HOF BRAU MAKES A SPECIALTY OF LITTLE OREGON CRAWFISH. WHILE THERE IS A DISTINCTIVE GERMAN ATMOSPHERE AT THE RATHSKELLER OF THE GERMAN HOUSE THE PLACE IS TOO FAR OUT TO GATHER SUCH NUMBERS AS CONGREGATE AT EITHER THE HEIDELBERG OR THE HOF BRAU BUT ONE CAN GET THE BEST OF GERMAN COOKING HERE AND SPLENDID SERVICE AND FOR A QUIET LITTLE DUTCH SUPPER WE KNOW OF NO PLACE THAT WILL ACCOMMODATE YOU BETTER THAN THE RATHSKELLER

+ALL IDEALISATION MAKES LIFE POORER. LEAVE THAT TO THE MORALISTS MY BOY. HISTORY IS MADE BY MEN BUT THEY DO NOT MAKE IT IN THEIR HEADS. THE IDEAS THAT ARE BORN IN THEIR CONSCIOUSNESS PLAY AN INSIGNIFICANT PART IN THE MARCH OF EVENTS. HISTORY IS DOMINATED AND DETERMINED BY THE TOOL AND THE PRODUCTION BY THE FORCE OF ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. CAPITALISM HAS MADE SOCIALISM AND THE LAWS MADE BY THE CAPITALISM FOR THE PROTECTION OF PROPERTY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANARCHISM. NO ONE CAN TELL WHAT FORM THE SOCIAL ORGANISATION MAY TAKE IN THE FUTURE. THEN WHY INDULGE IN PROPHETIC PHANTASIES. AT BEST THEY CAN ONLY INTERPRET THE MIND OF THE PROPHET AND CAN HAVE NO OBJECTIVE VALUE. MICHAELIS THE TICKET OF LEAVE APOSTLE WAS SPEAKING IN AN EVEN VOICE A VOICE THAT WHEEZED AS IF DEADENED AND OPPRESSED BY THE LAYER OF FAT ON HIS CHEST. HE HAD COME OUT OF A HIGHLY HYGIENIC PRISON ROUND LIKE A TUB WITH AN ENORMOUS STOMACH AND DISTENDED CHEEKS OF A PALE SEMI TRANSPARENT COMPLEXION AS THOUGH FOR FIFTEEN YEARS THE SERVANTS OF AN OUTRAGED SOCIETY HAD MADE A POINT OF STUFFING HIM WITH FATTENING FOODS IN A DAMP AND LIGHTLESS CELLAR. AND EVER SINCE HE HAD NEVER MANAGED TO GET HIS WEIGHT DOWN AS MUCH AS AN OUNCE. IT WAS SAID THAT FOR THREE SEASONS RUNNING A VERY WEALTHY OLD LADY HAD SENT HIM FOR A CURE TO MARIENBAD WHERE HE WAS ABOUT TO SHARE THE PUBLIC CURIOSITY ONCE WITH A CROWNED HEAD BUT THE POLICE ON THAT OCCASION ORDERED HIM TO LEAVE WITHIN TWELVE HOURS. HIS MARTYRDOM WAS CONTINUED BY FORBIDDING HIM ALL ACCESS TO THE HEALING WATERS BUT HE WAS RESIGNED NOW. WITH HIS ELBOW PRESENTING NO APPEARANCE OF A JOINT BUT MORE LIKE A BEND IN A DUMMY'S LIMB THROWN OVER THE BACK OF A CHAIR HE LEANED FORWARD SLIGHTLY OVER HIS SHORT AND ENORMOUS THIGHS TO SPIT INTO THE GRATE. YES I HAD THE TIME TO THINK THINGS OUT A LITTLE HE ADDED WITHOUT EMPHASIS. SOCIETY HAS GIVEN ME PLENTY OF TIME FOR MEDITATION. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FIREPLACE IN THE HORSE HAIR ARM CHAIR WHERE MISSUS VERLOC'S MOTHER WAS GENERALLY PRIVILEGED TO SIT KARL YUNDT GIGGLED GRIMLY WITH A FAINT BLACK GRIMACE OF A TOOTHLESS MOUTH. THE TERRORIST AS HE CALLED HIMSELF WAS OLD AND BALD WITH A NARROW SNOW WHITE WISP OF A GOATEE HANGING LIMPLY FROM HIS CHIN. AN EXTRAORDINARY EXPRESSION OF UNDERHAND MALEVOLENCE SURVIVED IN HIS EXTINGUISHED EYES. WHEN HE ROSE PAINFULLY THE THRUSTING FORWARD OF A SKINNY GROPING HAND DEFORMED BY GOUTY SWELLINGS SUGGESTED THE EFFORT OF A MORIBUND MURDERER SUMMONING ALL HIS REMAINING STRENGTH FOR A LAST STAB. HE LEANED ON A THICK STICK WHICH TREMBLED UNDER HIS OTHER HAND. HIS LITTLE BALD HEAD QUIVERED IMPARTING A COMICAL VIBRATION TO THE WISP OF WHITE GOATEE. HIS ENUNCIATION WOULD HAVE BEEN ALMOST TOTALLY UNINTELLIGIBLE TO A STRANGER. HIS WORN OUT PASSION RESEMBLING IN ITS IMPOTENT FIERCENESS THE EXCITEMENT OF A SENILE SENSUALIST WAS BADLY SERVED BY A DRIED THROAT AND TOOTHLESS GUMS WHICH SEEMED TO CATCH THE TIP OF HIS TONGUE. MISTER VERLOC ESTABLISHED IN THE CORNER OF THE SOFA AT THE OTHER END OF THE ROOM EMITTED TWO HEARTY GRUNTS OF ASSENT. THE OLD TERRORIST TURNED SLOWLY HIS HEAD ON HIS SKINNY NECK FROM SIDE TO SIDE. AND I COULD NEVER GET AS MANY AS THREE SUCH MEN TOGETHER. SO MUCH FOR YOUR ROTTEN PESSIMISM HE SNARLED AT MICHAELIS WHO UNCROSSED HIS THICK LEGS SIMILAR TO BOLSTERS AND SLID HIS FEET ABRUPTLY UNDER HIS CHAIR IN SIGN OF EXASPERATION. HE A PESSIMIST PREPOSTEROUS. HE CRIED OUT THAT THE CHARGE WAS OUTRAGEOUS. HE WAS SO FAR FROM PESSIMISM THAT HE SAW ALREADY THE END OF ALL PRIVATE PROPERTY COMING ALONG LOGICALLY UNAVOIDABLY BY THE MERE DEVELOPMENT OF ITS INHERENT VICIOUSNESS. THE POSSESSORS OF PROPERTY HAD NOT ONLY TO FACE THE AWAKENED PROLETARIAT BUT THEY HAD ALSO TO FIGHT AMONGST THEMSELVES YES. STRUGGLE WARFARE WAS THE CONDITION OF PRIVATE OWNERSHIP IT WAS FATAL

+AH HE DID NOT DEPEND UPON EMOTIONAL EXCITEMENT TO KEEP UP HIS BELIEF NO DECLAMATIONS NO ANGER NO VISIONS OF BLOOD RED FLAGS WAVING OR METAPHORICAL LURID SUNS OF VENGEANCE RISING ABOVE THE HORIZON OF A DOOMED SOCIETY NOT HE. COLD REASON HE BOASTED WAS THE BASIS OF HIS OPTIMISM YES OPTIMISM. DON'T YOU THINK THAT IF I HAD NOT BEEN THE OPTIMIST I AM I COULD NOT HAVE FOUND IN FIFTEEN YEARS SOME MEANS TO CUT MY THROAT. MICHAELIS PURSUED HIS IDEA THE IDEA OF HIS SOLITARY RECLUSION THE THOUGHT VOUCHSAFED TO HIS CAPTIVITY AND GROWING LIKE A FAITH REVEALED IN VISIONS. HE WAS NO GOOD IN DISCUSSION NOT BECAUSE ANY AMOUNT OF ARGUMENT COULD SHAKE HIS FAITH BUT BECAUSE THE MERE FACT OF HEARING ANOTHER VOICE DISCONCERTED HIM PAINFULLY CONFUSING HIS THOUGHTS AT ONCE THESE THOUGHTS THAT FOR SO MANY YEARS IN A MENTAL SOLITUDE MORE BARREN THAN A WATERLESS DESERT NO LIVING VOICE HAD EVER COMBATTED COMMENTED OR APPROVED. A HARSH LAUGH FROM COMRADE OSSIPON CUT THE TIRADE DEAD SHORT IN A SUDDEN FALTERING OF THE TONGUE AND A BEWILDERED UNSTEADINESS OF THE APOSTLE'S MILDLY EXALTED EYES. HE CLOSED THEM SLOWLY FOR A MOMENT AS IF TO COLLECT HIS ROUTED THOUGHTS. A SILENCE FELL BUT WHAT WITH THE TWO GAS JETS OVER THE TABLE AND THE GLOWING GRATE THE LITTLE PARLOUR BEHIND MISTER VERLOC'S SHOP HAD BECOME FRIGHTFULLY HOT. THE ARTIST NEVER TURNED HIS HEAD AND IN ALL HIS SOUL'S APPLICATION TO THE TASK HIS BACK QUIVERED HIS THIN NECK SUNK INTO A DEEP HOLLOW AT THE BASE OF THE SKULL SEEMED READY TO SNAP. MISTER VERLOC AFTER A GRUNT OF DISAPPROVING SURPRISE RETURNED TO THE SOFA. ALEXANDER OSSIPON GOT UP TALL IN HIS THREADBARE BLUE SERGE SUIT UNDER THE LOW CEILING SHOOK OFF THE STIFFNESS OF LONG IMMOBILITY AND STROLLED AWAY INTO THE KITCHEN DOWN TWO STEPS TO LOOK OVER STEVIE'S SHOULDER. HE CAME BACK PRONOUNCING ORACULARLY VERY GOOD. VERY CHARACTERISTIC PERFECTLY TYPICAL. WHAT'S VERY GOOD GRUNTED INQUIRINGLY MISTER VERLOC SETTLED AGAIN IN THE CORNER OF THE SOFA. TYPICAL OF THIS FORM OF DEGENERACY THESE DRAWINGS I MEAN. YOU WOULD CALL THAT LAD A DEGENERATE WOULD YOU MUMBLED MISTER VERLOC. THAT'S WHAT HE MAY BE CALLED SCIENTIFICALLY. VERY GOOD TYPE TOO ALTOGETHER OF THAT SORT OF DEGENERATE. IT'S ENOUGH TO GLANCE AT THE LOBES OF HIS EARS IF YOU READ LOMBROSO. OF LATE EVEN THE MEREST DERIVATIVE OF THE WORD SCIENCE A TERM IN ITSELF INOFFENSIVE AND OF INDEFINITE MEANING HAD THE CURIOUS POWER OF EVOKING A DEFINITELY OFFENSIVE MENTAL VISION OF MISTER VLADIMIR IN HIS BODY AS HE LIVED WITH AN ALMOST SUPERNATURAL CLEARNESS. AND THIS PHENOMENON DESERVING JUSTLY TO BE CLASSED AMONGST THE MARVELS OF SCIENCE INDUCED IN MISTER VERLOC AN EMOTIONAL STATE OF DREAD AND EXASPERATION TENDING TO EXPRESS ITSELF IN VIOLENT SWEARING BUT HE SAID NOTHING. IT WAS KARL YUNDT WHO WAS HEARD IMPLACABLE TO HIS LAST BREATH. LOMBROSO IS AN ASS. COMRADE OSSIPON MET THE SHOCK OF THIS BLASPHEMY BY AN AWFUL VACANT STARE. AND THE OTHER HIS EXTINGUISHED EYES WITHOUT GLEAMS BLACKENING THE DEEP SHADOWS UNDER THE GREAT BONY FOREHEAD MUMBLED CATCHING THE TIP OF HIS TONGUE BETWEEN HIS LIPS AT EVERY SECOND WORD AS THOUGH HE WERE CHEWING IT ANGRILY. DID YOU EVER SEE SUCH AN IDIOT. FOR HIM THE CRIMINAL IS THE PRISONER SIMPLE IS IT NOT. WHAT ABOUT THOSE WHO SHUT HIM UP THERE FORCED HIM IN THERE. EXACTLY FORCED HIM IN THERE AND WHAT IS CRIME. DOES HE KNOW THAT THIS IMBECILE WHO HAS MADE HIS WAY IN THIS WORLD OF GORGED FOOLS BY LOOKING AT THE EARS AND TEETH OF A LOT OF POOR LUCKLESS DEVILS. TEETH AND EARS MARK THE CRIMINAL DO THEY. AND WHAT ABOUT THE LAW THAT MARKS HIM STILL BETTER THE PRETTY BRANDING INSTRUMENT INVENTED BY THE OVERFED TO PROTECT THEMSELVES AGAINST THE HUNGRY. RED HOT APPLICATIONS ON THEIR VILE SKINS HEY.

+THE ALL BUT MORIBUND VETERAN OF DYNAMITE WARS HAD BEEN A GREAT ACTOR IN HIS TIME ACTOR ON PLATFORMS IN SECRET ASSEMBLIES IN PRIVATE INTERVIEWS. THE FAMOUS TERRORIST HAD NEVER IN HIS LIFE RAISED PERSONALLY AS MUCH AS HIS LITTLE FINGER AGAINST THE SOCIAL EDIFICE. WITH A MORE SUBTLE INTENTION HE TOOK THE PART OF AN INSOLENT AND VENOMOUS EVOKER OF SINISTER IMPULSES WHICH LURK IN THE BLIND ENVY AND EXASPERATED VANITY OF IGNORANCE IN THE SUFFERING AND MISERY OF POVERTY IN ALL THE HOPEFUL AND NOBLE ILLUSIONS OF RIGHTEOUS ANGER PITY AND REVOLT. THE SHADOW OF HIS EVIL GIFT CLUNG TO HIM YET LIKE THE SMELL OF A DEADLY DRUG IN AN OLD VIAL OF POISON EMPTIED NOW USELESS READY TO BE THROWN AWAY UPON THE RUBBISH HEAP OF THINGS THAT HAD SERVED THEIR TIME. MICHAELIS THE TICKET OF LEAVE APOSTLE SMILED VAGUELY WITH HIS GLUED LIPS HIS PASTY MOON FACE DROOPED UNDER THE WEIGHT OF MELANCHOLY ASSENT. HE HAD BEEN A PRISONER HIMSELF. HIS OWN SKIN HAD SIZZLED UNDER THE RED HOT BRAND HE MURMURED SOFTLY. BUT COMRADE OSSIPON NICKNAMED THE DOCTOR HAD GOT OVER THE SHOCK BY THAT TIME. YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND HE BEGAN DISDAINFULLY BUT STOPPED SHORT INTIMIDATED BY THE DEAD BLACKNESS OF THE CAVERNOUS EYES IN THE FACE TURNED SLOWLY TOWARDS HIM WITH A BLIND STARE AS IF GUIDED ONLY BY THE SOUND. HE GAVE THE DISCUSSION UP WITH A SLIGHT SHRUG OF THE SHOULDERS. STEVIE ACCUSTOMED TO MOVE ABOUT DISREGARDED HAD GOT UP FROM THE KITCHEN TABLE CARRYING OFF HIS DRAWING TO BED WITH HIM. HE HAD REACHED THE PARLOUR DOOR IN TIME TO RECEIVE IN FULL THE SHOCK OF KARL YUNDT'S ELOQUENT IMAGERY. THE SHEET OF PAPER COVERED WITH CIRCLES DROPPED OUT OF HIS FINGERS AND HE REMAINED STARING AT THE OLD TERRORIST AS IF ROOTED SUDDENLY TO THE SPOT BY HIS MORBID HORROR AND DREAD OF PHYSICAL PAIN. STEVIE KNEW VERY WELL THAT HOT IRON APPLIED TO ONE'S SKIN HURT VERY MUCH. HIS SCARED EYES BLAZED WITH INDIGNATION IT WOULD HURT TERRIBLY HIS MOUTH DROPPED OPEN. MICHAELIS BY STARING UNWINKINGLY AT THE FIRE HAD REGAINED THAT SENTIMENT OF ISOLATION NECESSARY FOR THE CONTINUITY OF HIS THOUGHT. HIS OPTIMISM HAD BEGUN TO FLOW FROM HIS LIPS. IN THE DOORWAY STEVIE CALMED SEEMED SUNK IN HEBETUDE. COMRADE OSSIPON'S FACE TWITCHED WITH EXASPERATION. THEN IT'S NO USE DOING ANYTHING NO USE WHATEVER. I DON'T SAY THAT PROTESTED MICHAELIS GENTLY. HIS VISION OF TRUTH HAD GROWN SO INTENSE THAT THE SOUND OF A STRANGE VOICE FAILED TO ROUT IT THIS TIME. HE CONTINUED TO LOOK DOWN AT THE RED COALS. BUT HE ARGUED THAT REVOLUTIONARY PROPAGANDA WAS A DELICATE WORK OF HIGH CONSCIENCE. HE WOULD HAVE IT ADVANCE ITS TENETS CAUTIOUSLY EVEN TIMIDLY IN OUR IGNORANCE OF THE EFFECT THAT MAY BE PRODUCED BY ANY GIVEN ECONOMIC CHANGE UPON THE HAPPINESS THE MORALS THE INTELLECT THE HISTORY OF MANKIND. FOR HISTORY IS MADE WITH TOOLS NOT WITH IDEAS AND EVERYTHING IS CHANGED BY ECONOMIC CONDITIONS ART PHILOSOPHY LOVE VIRTUE TRUTH ITSELF. THE COALS IN THE GRATE SETTLED DOWN WITH A SLIGHT CRASH AND MICHAELIS THE HERMIT OF VISIONS IN THE DESERT OF A PENITENTIARY GOT UP IMPETUOUSLY. ROUND LIKE A DISTENDED BALLOON HE OPENED HIS SHORT THICK ARMS AS IF IN A PATHETICALLY HOPELESS ATTEMPT TO EMBRACE AND HUG TO HIS BREAST A SELF REGENERATED UNIVERSE HE GASPED WITH ARDOUR. THE FUTURE IS AS CERTAIN AS THE PAST SLAVERY FEUDALISM INDIVIDUALISM COLLECTIVISM. THIS IS THE STATEMENT OF A LAW NOT AN EMPTY PROPHECY. THE DISDAINFUL POUT OF COMRADE OSSIPON'S THICK LIPS ACCENTUATED THE NEGRO TYPE OF HIS FACE. NONSENSE HE SAID CALMLY ENOUGH. THERE IS NO LAW AND NO CERTAINTY THE TEACHING PROPAGANDA BE HANGED. WHAT THE PEOPLE KNOWS DOES NOT MATTER WERE ITS KNOWLEDGE EVER SO ACCURATE. HE PAUSED THEN ADDED WITH MODEST FIRMNESS. NOTHING GROWLED FROM THE SOFA MISTER VERLOC WHO PROVOKED BY THE ABHORRENT SOUND HAD MERELY MUTTERED A DAMN. THE VENOMOUS SPLUTTERING OF THE OLD TERRORIST WITHOUT TEETH WAS HEARD

+DO YOU KNOW HOW I WOULD CALL THE NATURE OF THE PRESENT ECONOMIC CONDITIONS. I WOULD CALL IT CANNIBALISTIC THAT'S WHAT IT IS. THEY ARE NOURISHING THEIR GREED ON THE QUIVERING FLESH AND THE WARM BLOOD OF THE PEOPLE NOTHING ELSE. STEVIE SWALLOWED THE TERRIFYING STATEMENT WITH AN AUDIBLE GULP AND AT ONCE AS THOUGH IT HAD BEEN SWIFT POISON SANK LIMPLY IN A SITTING POSTURE ON THE STEPS OF THE KITCHEN DOOR. MICHAELIS GAVE NO SIGN OF HAVING HEARD ANYTHING. HIS LIPS SEEMED GLUED TOGETHER FOR GOOD NOT A QUIVER PASSED OVER HIS HEAVY CHEEKS. WITH TROUBLED EYES HE LOOKED FOR HIS ROUND HARD HAT AND PUT IT ON HIS ROUND HEAD. HIS ROUND AND OBESE BODY SEEMED TO FLOAT LOW BETWEEN THE CHAIRS UNDER THE SHARP ELBOW OF KARL YUNDT. THE OLD TERRORIST RAISING AN UNCERTAIN AND CLAWLIKE HAND GAVE A SWAGGERING TILT TO A BLACK FELT SOMBRERO SHADING THE HOLLOWS AND RIDGES OF HIS WASTED FACE. HE GOT IN MOTION SLOWLY STRIKING THE FLOOR WITH HIS STICK AT EVERY STEP. MISTER VERLOC SAW HIS GUESTS OFF THE PREMISES ATTENDING THEM BAREHEADED HIS HEAVY OVERCOAT HANGING OPEN HIS EYES ON THE GROUND. HE CLOSED THE DOOR BEHIND THEIR BACKS WITH RESTRAINED VIOLENCE TURNED THE KEY SHOT THE BOLT. HE WAS NOT SATISFIED WITH HIS FRIENDS. IN THE LIGHT OF MISTER VLADIMIR'S PHILOSOPHY OF BOMB THROWING THEY APPEARED HOPELESSLY FUTILE. THE PART OF MISTER VERLOC IN REVOLUTIONARY POLITICS HAVING BEEN TO OBSERVE HE COULD NOT ALL AT ONCE EITHER IN HIS OWN HOME OR IN LARGER ASSEMBLIES TAKE THE INITIATIVE OF ACTION HE HAD TO BE CAUTIOUS. PAUSING IN HIS INTENTION TO TURN OFF THE GAS BURNING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE SHOP MISTER VERLOC DESCENDED INTO THE ABYSS OF MORAL REFLECTIONS. WITH THE INSIGHT OF A KINDRED TEMPERAMENT HE PRONOUNCED HIS VERDICT. A LAZY LOT THIS KARL YUNDT NURSED BY A BLEAR EYED OLD WOMAN A WOMAN HE HAD YEARS AGO ENTICED AWAY FROM A FRIEND AND AFTERWARDS HAD TRIED MORE THAN ONCE TO SHAKE OFF INTO THE GUTTER. JOLLY LUCKY FOR YUNDT THAT SHE HAD PERSISTED IN COMING UP TIME AFTER TIME OR ELSE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN NO ONE NOW TO HELP HIM OUT OF THE BUS BY THE GREEN PARK RAILINGS WHERE THAT SPECTRE TOOK ITS CONSTITUTIONAL CRAWL EVERY FINE MORNING. AND MISTER VERLOC'S MORALITY WAS OFFENDED ALSO BY THE OPTIMISM OF MICHAELIS ANNEXED BY HIS WEALTHY OLD LADY WHO HAD TAKEN LATELY TO SENDING HIM TO A COTTAGE SHE HAD IN THE COUNTRY. THE EX PRISONER COULD MOON ABOUT THE SHADY LANES FOR DAYS TOGETHER IN A DELICIOUS AND HUMANITARIAN IDLENESS. AS TO OSSIPON THAT BEGGAR WAS SURE TO WANT FOR NOTHING AS LONG AS THERE WERE SILLY GIRLS WITH SAVINGS BANK BOOKS IN THE WORLD. THERE ARE NATURES TOO TO WHOSE SENSE OF JUSTICE THE PRICE EXACTED LOOMS UP MONSTROUSLY ENORMOUS ODIOUS OPPRESSIVE WORRYING HUMILIATING EXTORTIONATE INTOLERABLE THOSE ARE THE FANATICS. THE REMAINING PORTION OF SOCIAL REBELS IS ACCOUNTED FOR BY VANITY THE MOTHER OF ALL NOBLE AND VILE ILLUSIONS THE COMPANION OF POETS REFORMERS CHARLATANS PROPHETS AND INCENDIARIES. LOST FOR A WHOLE MINUTE IN THE ABYSS OF MEDITATION MISTER VERLOC DID NOT REACH THE DEPTH OF THESE ABSTRACT CONSIDERATIONS PERHAPS HE WAS NOT ABLE. IN ANY CASE HE HAD NOT THE TIME. A SHADE OF ENVY CREPT INTO HIS THOUGHTS. LOAFING WAS ALL VERY WELL FOR THESE FELLOWS WHO KNEW NOT MISTER VLADIMIR AND HAD WOMEN TO FALL BACK UPON WHEREAS HE HAD A WOMAN TO PROVIDE FOR. THEN WHY NOT GO NOW AT ONCE HE SIGHED. THE NECESSITY WAS NOT SO NORMALLY PLEASURABLE AS IT OUGHT TO HAVE BEEN FOR A MAN OF HIS AGE AND TEMPERAMENT. HE DREADED THE DEMON OF SLEEPLESSNESS WHICH HE FELT HAD MARKED HIM FOR ITS OWN. HE RAISED HIS ARM AND TURNED OFF THE FLARING GAS JET ABOVE HIS HEAD. A BRIGHT BAND OF LIGHT FELL THROUGH THE PARLOUR DOOR INTO THE PART OF THE SHOP BEHIND THE COUNTER. IT ENABLED MISTER VERLOC TO ASCERTAIN AT A GLANCE THE NUMBER OF SILVER COINS IN THE TILL. THESE WERE BUT FEW AND FOR THE FIRST TIME SINCE HE OPENED HIS SHOP HE TOOK A COMMERCIAL SURVEY OF ITS VALUE. THIS SURVEY WAS UNFAVOURABLE. HE HAD GONE INTO TRADE FOR NO COMMERCIAL REASONS. MOREOVER IT DID NOT TAKE HIM OUT OF HIS OWN SPHERE THE SPHERE WHICH IS WATCHED BY THE POLICE

+ON THE CONTRARY IT GAVE HIM A PUBLICLY CONFESSED STANDING IN THAT SPHERE AND AS MISTER VERLOC HAD UNCONFESSED RELATIONS WHICH MADE HIM FAMILIAR WITH YET CARELESS OF THE POLICE THERE WAS A DISTINCT ADVANTAGE IN SUCH A SITUATION. BUT AS A MEANS OF LIVELIHOOD IT WAS BY ITSELF INSUFFICIENT. HE TOOK THE CASH BOX OUT OF THE DRAWER AND TURNING TO LEAVE THE SHOP BECAME AWARE THAT STEVIE WAS STILL DOWNSTAIRS. WHAT ON EARTH IS HE DOING THERE MISTER VERLOC ASKED HIMSELF WHAT'S THE MEANING OF THESE ANTICS. HE LOOKED DUBIOUSLY AT HIS BROTHER IN LAW BUT HE DID NOT ASK HIM FOR INFORMATION. MISTER VERLOC PERCEIVED WITH SOME SURPRISE THAT HE DID NOT KNOW REALLY WHAT TO SAY TO STEVIE. HE STOOD STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PARLOUR AND LOOKED INTO THE KITCHEN IN SILENCE. AND THIS APPEARED VERY QUEER TO MISTER VERLOC IN VIEW OF THE FACT BORNE UPON HIM SUDDENLY THAT HE HAD TO PROVIDE FOR THIS FELLOW TOO. HE HAD NEVER GIVEN A MOMENT'S THOUGHT TILL THEN TO THAT ASPECT OF STEVIE'S EXISTENCE. HE WATCHED HIM GESTICULATING AND MURMURING IN THE KITCHEN. STEVIE PROWLED ROUND THE TABLE LIKE AN EXCITED ANIMAL IN A CAGE. A TENTATIVE HADN'T YOU BETTER GO TO BED NOW. PRODUCED NO EFFECT WHATEVER AND MISTER VERLOC ABANDONING THE STONY CONTEMPLATION OF HIS BROTHER IN LAW'S BEHAVIOUR CROSSED THE PARLOUR WEARILY CASH BOX IN HAND. THE CAUSE OF THE GENERAL LASSITUDE HE FELT WHILE CLIMBING THE STAIRS BEING PURELY MENTAL HE BECAME ALARMED BY ITS INEXPLICABLE CHARACTER. HE HOPED HE WAS NOT SICKENING FOR ANYTHING. MISSUS VERLOC HAD FALLEN ASLEEP WITH THE LAMP NO GAS WAS LAID UPSTAIRS TURNED UP FULL ON THE TABLE BY THE SIDE OF THE BED. THE LIGHT THROWN DOWN BY THE SHADE FELL DAZZLINGLY ON THE WHITE PILLOW SUNK BY THE WEIGHT OF HER HEAD REPOSING WITH CLOSED EYES AND DARK HAIR DONE UP IN SEVERAL PLAITS FOR THE NIGHT. HER BARE FEET AS IF POKED THROUGH THE BOTTOM OF AN UNADORNED SLEEVED CALICO SACK BUTTONED TIGHTLY AT NECK AND WRISTS FELT OVER THE RUG FOR THE SLIPPERS WHILE SHE LOOKED UPWARD INTO HER HUSBAND'S FACE. I DON'T KNOW HOW TO MANAGE HIM MISTER VERLOC EXPLAINED PEEVISHLY. WON'T DO TO LEAVE HIM DOWNSTAIRS ALONE WITH THE LIGHTS. SHE SAID NOTHING GLIDED ACROSS THE ROOM SWIFTLY AND THE DOOR CLOSED UPON HER WHITE FORM. MISTER VERLOC DEPOSITED THE CASH BOX ON THE NIGHT TABLE AND BEGAN THE OPERATION OF UNDRESSING BY FLINGING HIS OVERCOAT ON TO A DISTANT CHAIR. HIS COAT AND WAISTCOAT FOLLOWED. HE WALKED ABOUT THE ROOM IN HIS STOCKINGED FEET AND HIS BURLY FIGURE WITH THE HANDS WORRYING NERVOUSLY AT HIS THROAT PASSED AND REPASSED ACROSS THE LONG STRIP OF LOOKING GLASS IN THE DOOR OF HIS WIFE'S WARDROBE. MISTER VERLOC FELT THE LATENT UNFRIENDLINESS OF ALL OUT OF DOORS WITH A FORCE APPROACHING TO POSITIVE BODILY ANGUISH. THERE IS NO OCCUPATION THAT FAILS A MAN MORE COMPLETELY THAN THAT OF A SECRET AGENT OF POLICE. IT'S LIKE YOUR HORSE SUDDENLY FALLING DEAD UNDER YOU IN THE MIDST OF AN UNINHABITED AND THIRSTY PLAIN. THE COMPARISON OCCURRED TO MISTER VERLOC BECAUSE HE HAD SAT ASTRIDE VARIOUS ARMY HORSES IN HIS TIME AND HAD NOW THE SENSATION OF AN INCIPIENT FALL. THE PROSPECT WAS AS BLACK AS THE WINDOW PANE AGAINST WHICH HE WAS LEANING HIS FOREHEAD. THIS LUMINOUS AND MUTILATED VISION WAS SO GHASTLY PHYSICALLY THAT MISTER VERLOC STARTED AWAY FROM THE WINDOW LETTING DOWN THE VENETIAN BLIND WITH A GREAT RATTLE. DISCOMPOSED AND SPEECHLESS WITH THE APPREHENSION OF MORE SUCH VISIONS HE BEHELD HIS WIFE RE ENTER THE ROOM AND GET INTO BED IN A CALM BUSINESS LIKE MANNER WHICH MADE HIM FEEL HOPELESSLY LONELY IN THE WORLD. MISSUS VERLOC EXPRESSED HER SURPRISE AT SEEING HIM UP YET. I DON'T FEEL VERY WELL HE MUTTERED PASSING HIS HANDS OVER HIS MOIST BROW GIDDINESS. YES NOT AT ALL WELL. DOWN BELOW IN THE QUIET NARROW STREET MEASURED FOOTSTEPS APPROACHED THE HOUSE THEN DIED AWAY UNHURRIED AND FIRM AS IF THE PASSER BY HAD STARTED TO PACE OUT ALL ETERNITY FROM GAS LAMP TO GAS LAMP IN A NIGHT WITHOUT END AND THE DROWSY TICKING OF THE OLD CLOCK ON THE LANDING BECAME DISTINCTLY AUDIBLE IN THE BEDROOM. MISSUS VERLOC ON HER BACK AND STARING AT THE CEILING MADE A REMARK TAKINGS VERY SMALL TO DAY

+MISTER VERLOC IN THE SAME POSITION CLEARED HIS THROAT AS IF FOR AN IMPORTANT STATEMENT BUT MERELY INQUIRED. DID YOU TURN OFF THE GAS DOWNSTAIRS. YES I DID ANSWERED MISSUS VERLOC CONSCIENTIOUSLY. THAT POOR BOY IS IN A VERY EXCITED STATE TO NIGHT SHE MURMURED AFTER A PAUSE WHICH LASTED FOR THREE TICKS OF THE CLOCK. MISTER VERLOC CARED NOTHING FOR STEVIE'S EXCITEMENT BUT HE FELT HORRIBLY WAKEFUL AND DREADED FACING THE DARKNESS AND SILENCE THAT WOULD FOLLOW THE EXTINGUISHING OF THE LAMP. THIS DREAD LED HIM TO MAKE THE REMARK THAT STEVIE HAD DISREGARDED HIS SUGGESTION TO GO TO BED. MISSUS VERLOC FALLING INTO THE TRAP STARTED TO DEMONSTRATE AT LENGTH TO HER HUSBAND THAT THIS WAS NOT IMPUDENCE OF ANY SORT BUT SIMPLY EXCITEMENT. THERE WAS NO YOUNG MAN OF HIS AGE IN LONDON MORE WILLING AND DOCILE THAN STEPHEN SHE AFFIRMED NONE MORE AFFECTIONATE AND READY TO PLEASE AND EVEN USEFUL AS LONG AS PEOPLE DID NOT UPSET HIS POOR HEAD. THAT ARDOUR OF PROTECTING COMPASSION EXALTED MORBIDLY IN HER CHILDHOOD BY THE MISERY OF ANOTHER CHILD TINGED HER SALLOW CHEEKS WITH A FAINT DUSKY BLUSH MADE HER BIG EYES GLEAM UNDER THE DARK LIDS. MISSUS VERLOC THEN LOOKED YOUNGER SHE LOOKED AS YOUNG AS WINNIE USED TO LOOK AND MUCH MORE ANIMATED THAN THE WINNIE OF THE BELGRAVIAN MANSION DAYS HAD EVER ALLOWED HERSELF TO APPEAR TO GENTLEMEN LODGERS. MISTER VERLOC'S ANXIETIES HAD PREVENTED HIM FROM ATTACHING ANY SENSE TO WHAT HIS WIFE WAS SAYING. IT WAS HER ASPECT THAT RECALLED HIM TO HIMSELF. WHEN HER VOICE CEASED HE MOVED UNEASILY AND SAID. I HAVEN'T BEEN FEELING WELL FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS. THAT BOY HEARS TOO MUCH OF WHAT IS TALKED ABOUT HERE. IF I HAD KNOWN THEY WERE COMING TO NIGHT I WOULD HAVE SEEN TO IT THAT HE WENT TO BED AT THE SAME TIME I DID. HE WAS OUT OF HIS MIND WITH SOMETHING HE OVERHEARD ABOUT EATING PEOPLE'S FLESH AND DRINKING BLOOD WHAT'S THE GOOD OF TALKING LIKE THAT. THERE WAS A NOTE OF INDIGNANT SCORN IN HER VOICE. MISTER VERLOC WAS FULLY RESPONSIVE NOW. ASK KARL YUNDT HE GROWLED SAVAGELY. MISSUS VERLOC WITH GREAT DECISION PRONOUNCED KARL YUNDT A DISGUSTING OLD MAN. SHE DECLARED OPENLY HER AFFECTION FOR MICHAELIS. HE ISN'T FIT TO HEAR WHAT'S SAID HERE HE BELIEVES IT'S ALL TRUE. HE KNOWS NO BETTER HE GETS INTO HIS PASSIONS OVER IT. MISTER VERLOC MADE NO COMMENT. HE GLARED AT ME AS IF HE DIDN'T KNOW WHO I WAS WHEN I WENT DOWNSTAIRS. HIS HEART WAS GOING LIKE A HAMMER HE CAN'T HELP BEING EXCITABLE. IT ISN'T HIS FAULT HE'S NO TROUBLE WHEN HE'S LEFT ALONE. MISTER VERLOC MADE NO COMMENT. I WISH HE HAD NEVER BEEN TO SCHOOL MISSUS VERLOC BEGAN AGAIN BRUSQUELY. HE GETS A RED FACE PORING OVER THEM. WE DON'T GET RID OF A DOZEN NUMBERS IN A MONTH. THEY ONLY TAKE UP ROOM IN THE FRONT WINDOW. I WOULDN'T GIVE A HALFPENNY FOR THE WHOLE LOT. IT'S SILLY READING THAT'S WHAT IT IS THERE'S NO SALE FOR IT. THE OTHER DAY STEVIE GOT HOLD OF ONE AND THERE WAS A STORY IN IT OF A GERMAN SOLDIER OFFICER TEARING HALF OFF THE EAR OF A RECRUIT AND NOTHING WAS DONE TO HIM FOR IT THE BRUTE. WE AREN'T GERMAN SLAVES HERE THANK GOD IT'S NOT OUR BUSINESS IS IT. MISTER VERLOC MADE NO REPLY. HE WAS SHOUTING AND STAMPING AND SOBBING. HE CAN'T STAND THE NOTION OF ANY CRUELTY. HE WOULD HAVE STUCK THAT OFFICER LIKE A PIG IF HE HAD SEEN HIM THEN IT'S TRUE TOO. SOME PEOPLE DON'T DESERVE MUCH MERCY. MISSUS VERLOC'S VOICE CEASED AND THE EXPRESSION OF HER MOTIONLESS EYES BECAME MORE AND MORE CONTEMPLATIVE AND VEILED DURING THE LONG PAUSE. COMFORTABLE DEAR. SHALL I PUT OUT THE LIGHT NOW. THE DREARY CONVICTION THAT THERE WAS NO SLEEP FOR HIM HELD MISTER VERLOC MUTE AND HOPELESSLY INERT IN HIS FEAR OF DARKNESS HE MADE A GREAT EFFORT

+ULYSSES SIMPSON GRANT. WHEN A MAN IS ENERGETIC AND DETERMINES TO BE SOMEBODY IN THE WORLD WHICH IS PRAISEWORTHY SO LONG AS THAT ENERGY IS GUIDED BY PROPRIETY AND A JUST CONCEPTION OF RIGHT THERE ARE ALWAYS SCORES HUNDREDS PERHAPS THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHO ENDEAVOR TO DEPRECIATE THAT MAN'S REWARD. NO OTHER EXCUSE CAN BE ASSIGNED FOR THE SLANDER AND VITUPERATION WHICH HAS FROM TIME TO TIME BEEN HEAPED UPON THE FAIR REPUTATION OF GENERAL U S GRANT. BORN IN OBSCURITY AT POINT PLEASANT OHIO APRIL TWENTY SEVENTH EIGHTEEN TWENTY TWO HIS LIFE IS A FITTING TYPE OF THE POSSIBILITIES OF OUR GLORIOUS INSTITUTIONS. THROUGH THE INFLUENCE OF HON THOMAS L HAMER HE WAS ADMITTED AT WEST POINT IN EIGHTEEN THIRTY NINE. PERSONALLY AT THIS EARLY AGE HE DETESTED WAR AND WAS OPPOSED TO ACCEPTING THE OPPORTUNITY BUT HIS FATHER PERSUADED HIM TO GO AND HIS NAME WAS BLUNDERINGLY REGISTERED AS U S INSTEAD OF H U HENCE HE WAS EVER AFTER KNOWN AS U S GRANT. IN EIGHTEEN FORTY THREE HE GRADUATED RANKING TWENTY FIRST IN A CLASS OF THIRTY NINE. AT THIS TIME GRANT WAS NOT TAKEN WITH WAR AND PROBABLY EVINCED LITTLE INTEREST IN ARMY TACTICS. THE MEXICAN WAR CAME ON AND GRANT HERE DISTINGUISHED HIMSELF RISING TO THE RANK OF CAPTAIN. AFTER THE WAR HE WAS STATIONED AT DETROIT AND SACKETTS HARBOR BUT THIS KIND OF INACTIVITY WAS ILL SUITED TO THE RESTLESS NATURE OF GRANT HE THEREFORE RESIGNED. HAVING MARRIED A MISS DENT OF SAINT LOUIS HE ACCORDINGLY MOVED ONTO A FARM NEAR THAT CITY. WHEN THE NEWS OF THE FALL OF FORT SUMTER REACHED GALENA HE IMMEDIATELY RAISED A COMPANY AND MARCHED TO SPRINGFIELD WHERE THEY TENDERED THEIR SERVICES TO THE GOVERNOR. GRANT ACTED AS MUSTERING OFFICER UNTIL BEING COMMISSIONED COLONEL OF THE TWENTY FIRST ILLINOIS VOLUNTEERS HE TOOK THE FIELD. HIS FIRST GREAT VICTORY WAS THE CAPTURE OF FORT DONELSON WITH FIFTEEN THOUSAND PRISONERS. I PROPOSE TO MOVE UPON YOUR WORKS AT ONCE. THE FALL OF FORT DONELSON AND THE CAPTURE OF ITS GARRISON BEING THE FIRST SUBSTANTIAL VICTORY THAT HAD CROWNED THE UNION CAUSE TOGETHER WITH THE ABOVE DESCRIBED ANSWER TO GENERAL BUCKNER BROUGHT THE NAME OF GENERAL GRANT PROMINENTLY BEFORE THE COUNTRY. PITTSBURGH LANDING FOLLOWED AND THEN GRANT DETERMINED TO TAKE VICKSBURG. ALL HIS GENERALS DECLARED THE PLAN HE PROPOSED UNMILITARY AND IMPOSSIBLE BUT AFTER SEVERAL UNSUCCESSFUL ATTEMPTS THE GIBRALTAR OF THE MISSISSIPPI WAS CAPTURED AND THIS TIME TWENTY SEVEN THOUSAND PRISONERS TAKEN. NOW CAME THE BATTLE OF CHATTANOOGA. GENERAL HALLECK IN SPEAKING OF THIS BATTLE SAID. CONSIDERING THE STRENGTH OF THE REBEL POSITION AND THE DIFFICULTY OF STORMING HIS INTRENCHMENTS THE BATTLE OF CHATTANOOGA MUST BE CONSIDERED THE MOST REMARKABLE IN HISTORY INDEED IT IS SO. AFTER GRANT HAD TURNED THE CONFEDERATE RIGHT FLANK SHERMAN WAS INTERCEPTED BETWEEN LONGSTREET AND BRAGG THUS CUTTING LONGSTREET ENTIRELY OUT AND PREVENTING ANOTHER JUNCTION BEING POSSIBLE. RESOLUTIONS OF THANKS WERE PASSED IN OHIO AND NEW YORK AND CONGRESS CREATED GRANT A LIEUTENANT GENERAL A COMMISSION WHICH HAD BEEN HELD BY NO ONE SINCE GENERAL SCOTT RESIGNED. INDEED IF EVER A GENERAL DESERVED HONOR GRANT HAD WON IT HE HAD OPENED THE MISSISSIPPI TO NAVIGATION AND HAD CAPTURED NEARLY ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND PRISONERS AND ARMS. HE WAS NOW COMMANDER OF ALL THE FEDERAL FORCES. ONE UNDER SHERMAN AGAINST ATLANTA COMMANDED BY THE SKILLFUL REBEL GENERAL JOHNSON THE OTHER UNDER MEADE DIRECTED AGAINST LEE AND THE CONFEDERATE CAPITOL

+SHERMAN ADVANCED UPON ATLANTA AND THE SUCCESS OF HIS FAMOUS MARCH TO THE SEA IS WELL KNOWN. THE CAPTURE OF LEE WAS A FAR MORE DIFFICULT UNDERTAKING. GRANT PERCEIVED THAT HIS ONLY HOPE LIE IN LITERALLY STARVING THE CONFEDERATE ARMY OUT BY CUTTING OFF ALL RESOURCES AS FAR AS PRACTICABLE. TIME WORE AWAY AND ON THE NINTH OF APRIL EIGHTEEN SIXTY FIVE GRANT CAPTURED THE CONFEDERATE ARMY UNDER LEE THUS VIRTUALLY ENDING THE WAR. ON JULY TWENTY FIFTH EIGHTEEN SIXTY SIX HE WAS MADE GENERAL OF THE UNITED STATES ARMY THE RANK HAVING BEEN CREATED FOR HIM HE WAS THE FIRST TO HOLD IT. WHEN HIS PUBLIC SERVICES WERE FINISHED HE STARTED IN COMPANY WITH HIS WIFE SON JESSE AND A FEW FRIENDS. THEY VISITED NEARLY ALL THE COUNTRIES OF EUROPE AND PART OF THOSE OF AFRICA AND ASIA. HIS SUCCESS SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN THE OUTGROWTH OF HARD STUDY AND ABILITY TO PERFORM THE MOST EXHAUSTIVE LABOR WITHOUT FATIGUE. THE SCENES OF HIS LATER DAYS WERE CLOUDED WITH THE INTRIGUES OF A STOCK GAMBLER BUT THE STAIN THAT THE GRANT WARD FAILURE SEEMED LIKELY TO THROW ON THE SPOTLESS REPUTATION OF GENERAL GRANT WAS WIPED AWAY WHEN THE FACTS WERE BROUGHT TO LIGHT AND A NEW LUSTRE WAS ADDED TO HIS FAME BY THE SELF SACRIFICE SHOWN IN THE FINAL SETTLEMENT. GENERAL GRANT PROVED TO BE A WRITER OF NO LOW ORDER AND HIS AUTOBIOGRAPHY IS A VERY READABLE BOOK

+MOTHER MAGPIE'S KINDERGARTEN. DID YOU EVER NOTICE HOW DIFFERENT ARE THE NESTS WHICH THE BIRDS BUILD IN SPRINGTIME IN TREE OR BUSH OR SANDY BANK OR HIDDEN IN THE GRASS. SOME ARE WONDERFULLY WROUGHT PRETTY LITTLE HOMES FOR BIRDIKINS. BUT OTHERS ARE CLUMSY AND CARELESSLY FASTENED TO THE BOUGH MOST UNSAFE CRADLES FOR THE FEATHERED BABY ON THE TREETOP. SOMETIMES AFTER A HEAVY WIND YOU FIND ON THE GROUND UNDER THE NEST POOR LITTLE BROKEN EGGS WHICH ROLLED OUT AND LOST THEIR CHANCE OF TURNING INTO BIRDS WITH SAFE SAFE WINGS OF THEIR OWN. NOW SUCH SAD THINGS AS THIS HAPPEN BECAUSE IN THEIR YOUTH THE LAZY FATHER AND MOTHER BIRDS DID NOT LEARN THEIR LESSON WHEN MOTHER MAGPIE HAD HER CLASS IN NEST MAKING. THE CLUMSIEST NEST OF ALL IS THAT WHICH THE WOOD PIGEON TRIES TO BUILD. INDEED IT IS NOT A NEST AT ALL ONLY THE BEGINNING OF ONE. AND THERE IS AN OLD STORY ABOUT THIS WHICH I SHALL TELL YOU. IN THE EARLY SPRINGTIME OF THE WORLD WHEN BIRDS WERE FIRST MADE NONE OF THEM EXCEPT MOTHER MAGPIE KNEW HOW TO BUILD A NEST. IN THAT LOVELY GARDEN WHERE THEY LIVED THE BIRDS WENT FLUTTERING ABOUT TRYING THEIR NEW WINGS SO INTERESTED IN THIS WONDERFUL GAME OF FLYING THAT THEY FORGOT ALL ABOUT PREPARING A HOME FOR THE BABY BIRDS WHO WERE TO COME. WHEN THE TIME CAME TO LAY THEIR EGGS THE PARENTS KNEW NOT WHAT TO DO. THERE WAS NO PLACE SAFE FROM THE FOUR LEGGED CREATURES WHO CANNOT FLY AND THEY BEGAN TO TWITTER HELPLESSLY OH HOW I WISH I HAD A NICE WARM NEST FOR MY EGGS. OH WHAT SHALL WE DO FOR A HOME. DEAR ME I DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HOUSEKEEPING. AND THE POOR SILLY THINGS RUFFLED UP THEIR FEATHERS AND LOOKED MISERABLE AS ONLY A LITTLE BIRD CAN LOOK WHEN IT IS UNHAPPY. ALL EXCEPT MOTHER MAGPIE. ALREADY SHE HAD FOUND OUT A WAY AND WAS BUSILY BUILDING A FAMOUS NEST FOR HERSELF. SHE WAS INDEED A CLEVER BIRD. SHE GATHERED TURF AND STICKS AND WITH CLAY BOUND THEM FIRMLY TOGETHER IN A STOUT ELM TREE. ABOUT HER HOUSE SHE BUILT A FENCE OF THORNS TO KEEP AWAY THE BURGLAR BIRDS WHO HAD ALREADY BEGUN MISCHIEF AMONG THEIR PEACEFUL NEIGHBORS. THUS SHE HAD A SNUG AND COSY DWELLING FINISHED BEFORE THE OTHERS EVEN SUSPECTED WHAT SHE WAS DOING. SHE POPPED INTO HER NEW HOUSE AND SAT THERE COMFORTABLY PEERING OUT THROUGH THE WINDOW SLITS WITH HER SHARP LITTLE EYES. AND SHE SAW THE OTHER BIRDS HOPPING ABOUT AND TWITTERING HELPLESSLY. WHAT SILLY BIRDS THEY ARE SHE CROAKED HA HA. WHAT WOULD THEY NOT GIVE FOR A NEST LIKE MINE. THEN ALL THE OTHER BIRDS CHIRPED EAGERLY YES YES LET US ASK HER TO TEACH US. SO IN A GREAT COMPANY THEY CAME FLUTTERING HOPPING TWITTERING UP TO THE ELM TREE WHERE MOTHER MAGPIE NESTLED COMFORTABLY IN HER NEW HOUSE. O WISE MOTHER MAGPIE DEAR MOTHER MAGPIE THEY CRIED TEACH US HOW TO BUILD OUR NESTS LIKE YOURS FOR IT IS GROWING NIGHT AND WE ARE TIRED AND SLEEPY. THE MAGPIE SAID SHE WOULD TEACH THEM IF THEY WOULD BE A PATIENT DILIGENT OBEDIENT CLASS OF LITTLE BIRDS. AND THEY ALL PROMISED THAT THEY WOULD. AND WHERE EACH BIRD PERCHED THERE IT WAS TO BUILD ITS NEST. WHEN THESE THINGS WERE ALL PILED UP BEFORE HER SHE TOLD EVERY BIRD TO DO JUST AS SHE DID. IT WAS LIKE A GREAT BIG KINDERGARTEN OF BIRDS PLAYING AT A NEW BUILDING GAME WITH MOTHER MAGPIE FOR THE TEACHER. SHE BEGAN TO SHOW THEM HOW TO WEAVE THE BITS OF THINGS TOGETHER INTO NESTS AS THEY SHOULD BE MADE. AND SOME OF THE BIRDS WHO WERE ATTENTIVE AND CAREFUL SOON SAW HOW IT WAS DONE AND STARTED NICE HOMES FOR THEMSELVES

+SO AS SHE WENT ON BIT BY BIT THE SILLY THINGS PRETENDED THAT THEY HAD KNOWN ALL ABOUT IT FROM THE FIRST WHICH WAS VERY UNPLEASANT FOR THEIR TEACHER. MOTHER MAGPIE TOOK TWO STICKS IN HER BEAK AND BEGAN LIKE THIS FIRST OF ALL MY FRIENDS YOU MUST LAY TWO STICKS CROSSWISE FOR A FOUNDATION THUS AND SHE PLACED THEM CAREFULLY ON THE BRANCH BEFORE HER. I THOUGHT THAT WAS THE WAY TO BEGIN. MOTHER MAGPIE SNAPPED HER EYES AT HIM AND WENT ON NEXT YOU MUST LAY A FEATHER ON A BIT OF MOSS TO START THE WALLS. CERTAINLY OF COURSE SCREAMED THE JACKDAW. I KNEW THAT CAME NEXT. THAT IS WHAT I TOLD THE PARROT BUT A MOMENT SINCE. HERE WOOD PIGEON SAID MOTHER MAGPIE YOU MUST PLACE THOSE STICKS THROUGH AND ACROSS CRISS CROSS CRISS CROSS SO. CRISS CROSS CRISS CROSS SO INTERRUPTED THE WOOD PIGEON. MOTHER MAGPIE HOPPED UP AND DOWN ON ONE LEG SO ANGRY SHE COULD HARDLY CROAK. COOED THE WOOD PIGEON OBSTINATELY IN HER SOFT FOOLISH LITTLE VOICE WITHOUT PAYING THE LEAST ATTENTION TO MOTHER MAGPIE'S DIRECTIONS. WE ALL KNOW THAT ANYTHING MORE CHIRPED THE CHORUS OF BIRDS TRYING TO CONCEAL HOW ANXIOUS THEY WERE TO KNOW WHAT CAME NEXT FOR THE NESTS WERE ONLY HALF FINISHED. BUT MOTHER MAGPIE WAS THOROUGHLY DISGUSTED AND REFUSED TO GO ON WITH THE LESSON WHICH HAD BEEN SO RUDELY INTERRUPTED BY HER PUPILS. YOU SAY YOU KNOW ALL ABOUT IT THEN GO ON AND FINISH YOUR NESTS BY YOURSELVES. MUCH LUCK MAY YOU HAVE. AND AWAY SHE FLEW TO HER OWN COSY NEST IN THE ELM TREE WHERE SHE WAS SOON FAST ASLEEP FORGETTING ALL ABOUT THE MATTER. BUT OH WHAT A PICKLE THE OTHER BIRDS WERE IN. THE LESSON WAS BUT HALF FINISHED AND MOST OF THEM HAD NOT THE SLIGHTEST IDEA WHAT TO DO NEXT. THAT IS WHY TO THIS DAY MANY OF THE BIRDS HAVE NEVER LEARNED TO BUILD A PERFECT NEST. SOME DO BETTER THAN OTHERS BUT NONE BUILD LIKE MOTHER MAGPIE. BUT THE WOOD PIGEON WAS IN THE WORST CASE OF THEM ALL. FOR SHE HAD ONLY THE FOUNDATION LAID CRISS CROSS AS THE MAGPIE HAD SHOWN HER

+THE DRAGON FLY CHILDREN AND THE SNAPPING TURTLE. THE DRAGON FLIES HAVE ALWAYS LIVED NEAR THE POND. NOT THE SAME ONES THAT ARE THERE NOW OF COURSE BUT THE GREAT GREAT GREAT GRANDFATHERS OF THESE. A PERSON WOULD THINK THAT AFTER A FAMILY HAD LIVED SO LONG IN A PLACE ALL THE NEIGHBORS WOULD BE FOND OF THEM YET IT IS NOT SO. THE DRAGON FLIES MAY BE VERY GOOD PEOPLE AND EVEN THE SNAPPING TURTLE SAYS THAT THEY ARE STILL THEY ARE SO PECULIAR THAT MANY OF THEIR NEIGHBORS DO NOT LIKE THEM AT ALL. EVEN WHEN THEY ARE ONLY LARVAE OR BABIES THEY ARE NOT GOOD PLAYMATES FOR THEY HAVE SUCH A BAD HABIT OF PUTTING EVERYTHING INTO THEIR MOUTHS. INDEED THE STICKLEBACK FATHER ONCE TOLD THE LITTLE STICKLEBACKS THAT THEY SHOULD NOT STIR OUT OF THE NEST UNLESS THEY WOULD PROMISE TO KEEP AWAY FROM THE YOUNG DRAGON FLIES. THE STICKLEBACK MOTHERS SAID THAT IT WAS ALL THE FAULT OF THE DRAGON FLY MOTHERS. WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT EXCLAIMED ONE OF THEM WHEN DRAGON FLY EGGS ARE SO CARELESSLY LAID. JUST FLEW AROUND IN THE SUNSHINE AND VISITED WITH HER FRIENDS AND ONCE IN A WHILE FLEW LOW ENOUGH TO TOUCH THE WATER AND DROP ONE IN. IT IS DISGRACEFUL. THE MINNOW MOTHERS DID NOT THINK IT WAS SO MUCH IN THE WAY THE EGGS WERE LAID ALTHOUGH SAID ONE I ALWAYS LAY MINE CLOSE TOGETHER INSTEAD OF SCATTERING THEM OVER THE WHOLE POND. THEY THOUGHT THE TROUBLE CAME FROM BAD BRINGING UP OR NO BRINGING UP AT ALL. NOW MOST OF THE LARVAE WERE TURNING INTO NYMPHS WHICH ARE HALF GROWN DRAGON FLIES. THEY HAD BEEN SHORT AND PLUMP AND NOW THEY WERE LONGER AND MORE SLENDER AND THERE WERE LITTLE BUNCHES ON THEIR SHOULDERS WHERE THE WINGS WERE GROWING UNDER THEIR SKIN. THEY HAD OUTGROWN THEIR OLD SKINS A GREAT MANY TIMES AND HAD TO WRIGGLE OUT OF THEM TO BE AT ALL COMFORTABLE. WHEN A DRAGON FLY CHILD BECAME TOO BIG FOR HIS SKIN HE HOOKED THE TWO SHARP CLAWS OF EACH OF HIS SIX FEET FIRMLY INTO SOMETHING UNFASTENED HIS SKIN DOWN THE BACK AND WRIGGLED OUT LEAVING IT TO ROLL AROUND IN THE WATER UNTIL IT BECAME JUST PART OF THE MUD. LIKE MOST GROWING CHILDREN THE DRAGON FLY LARVAE AND NYMPHS HAD TO EAT A GREAT DEAL. THEIR STOMACHS WERE AS LONG AS THEIR BODIES AND THEY WERE NEVER REALLY HAPPY UNLESS THEIR STOMACHS WERE FULL. THEY ALWAYS ATE PLAIN FOOD AND PLENTY OF IT AND THEY NEVER ATE BETWEEN MEALS. THEY HAD BREAKFAST FROM THE TIME THEY AWAKENED IN THE MORNING UNTIL THE SUN WAS HIGH IN THE SKY THEN THEY HAD DINNER UNTIL THE SUN WAS LOW IN THE SKY AND SUPPER FROM THAT TIME UNTIL IT GREW DARK AND THEY WENT TO SLEEP BUT NEVER A MOUTHFUL BETWEEN MEALS NO MATTER HOW HUNGRY THEY MIGHT BE THEY SAID THIS WAS THEIR ONLY RULE ABOUT EATING AND THEY WOULD KEEP IT THEY WERE ALWAYS SLOW CHILDREN. YOU WOULD THINK THAT WITH SIX LEGS APIECE AND THREE JOINTS IN EACH LEG THEY MIGHT WALK QUITE FAST YET THEY NEVER DID. WHEN THEY HAD TO THEY HURRIED IN ANOTHER WAY BY TAKING A LONG LEAP THROUGH THE WATER. OF COURSE THEY BREATHED WATER LIKE THEIR NEIGHBORS THE FISHES AND THE TADPOLES. THEY DID NOT BREATHE IT INTO THEIR MOUTHS OR THROUGH GILLS BUT TOOK IT IN THROUGH SOME OPENINGS IN THE BACK PART OF THEIR BODIES. WHEN THEY WANTED TO HURRY THEY BREATHED THIS WATER OUT SO SUDDENLY THAT IT SENT THEM QUICKLY AHEAD. WELL YOU CAN'T SAID A NYMPH TURNING TOWARDS HIM SO SUDDENLY THAT HE LEAPED. IT WAS NOT AT ALL NICE IN HER TO SPEAK THAT WAY BUT SHE WAS NOT WELL BROUGHT UP YOU KNOW AND THAT PERHAPS IS A REASON WHY ONE SHOULD EXCUSE HER FOR TALKING SO TO HER LITTLE BROTHER. SHE WAS OFTEN IMPATIENT AND SAID SHE COULD NEVER GO ANYWHERE WITHOUT ONE OF THE LARVAE TAGGING ALONG. I TELL YOU WHAT LET'S DO SAID ANOTHER NYMPH

WELL OUR LOWER LIPS ANYWAY ANSWERED THE NYMPH. OUR UPPER LIPS ARE SO SMALL THEY DON'T MATTER. THEY THOUGHT IT WOULD SCARE THE SNAPPING TURTLE DREADFULLY. THEY KNEW THAT WHENEVER THEY STUCK OUT THEIR LOWER LIPS AT THE SMALL FISHES AND BUGS THEY SWAM AWAY AS FAST AS THEY COULD. THE GIANT WATER BUG BELOSTOMA WAS THE ONLY BUG WHO WAS NOT AFRAID OF THEM WHEN THEY MADE FACES. INDEED THE LOWER LIP OF A DRAGON FLY CHILD MIGHT WELL FRIGHTEN PEOPLE FOR IT IS FASTENED ON A LONG JOINTED ARM LIKE THING AND HAS PINCERS ON IT WITH WHICH IT CATCHES AND HOLDS ITS FOOD. MOST OF THE TIME THE DRAGON FLY CHILD KEEPS THE JOINT BENT AND SO HOLDS HIS LIP UP TO HIS FACE LIKE A MASK. BUT SOMETIMES HE STRAIGHTENS THE JOINT AND HOLDS HIS LIP OUT BEFORE HIM AND THEN ITS PINCERS CATCH HOLD OF THINGS HE DOES THIS WHEN HE IS HUNGRY. THE SNAPPING TURTLE WAS NOWHERE TO BE SEEN SO THEY HAD TO WAIT. WHISPERED ONE LARVA TO ANOTHER. SCARED DAH WHO'S AFRAID ANSWERED HE. OH LOOK CRIED A NYMPH. THERE GO SOME GROWN UP DRAGON FLIES OVER OUR HEADS. JUST YOU WAIT UNTIL I CHANGE MY SKIN ONCE MORE AND THEN WON'T I HAVE A GOOD TIME. I'LL DRY MY WINGS AND THEN I'LL. HERE COMES THE SNAPPING TURTLE. SURE ENOUGH THERE HE CAME THROUGH THE SHALLOW WATER HIS WET BACK SHELL PARTLY OUT OF IT AND SHINING IN THE SUNLIGHT. HE CAME STRAIGHT TOWARD THE DRAGON FLY CHILDREN AND THEY WERE GLAD TO SEE THAT HE DID NOT LOOK HUNGRY. THEY THOUGHT HE MIGHT BE GOING TO TAKE A NAP AFTER HIS DINNER. THEN THEY ALL STOOD EVEN CLOSER TOGETHER AND STUCK OUT THEIR LOWER LIPS AT HIM. THEY THOUGHT HE MIGHT RUN AWAY WHEN THEY DID THIS. I WILL LIE DOWN IN THE SUNSHINE AND REST. HE TOOK A FEW MORE STEPS WHICH BROUGHT HIS GREAT BODY RIGHT OVER THE CROWD OF DRAGON FLY CHILDREN. I THINK I WILL DRAW IN MY HEAD SAID HE THE DRAGON FLY CHILDREN LOOKED AT EACH OTHER AND MY TAIL HERE TWO OF THE YOUNGEST LARVAE BEGAN TO CRY AND LIE DOWN. HE BEGAN TO DRAW IN HIS LEGS VERY VERY SLOWLY AND JUST AS HIS GREAT HARD LOWER SHELL TOUCHED THE MUD THE LAST LARVA CRAWLED OUT UNDER HIS TAIL. THE NYMPHS HAD ALREADY GOTTEN AWAY

IN EXACTLY TEN MINUTES IT IS IN THE POWER OF EVERY MAN TO FREE HIMSELF FROM ALL THE TUMULT OF THE WORLD THE PANGS OF LOVE THE THROBS OF AMBITION THE WEAR AND TEAR OF PLAY THE RECRIMINATING BOUDOIR THE CONSPIRING CLUB THE RATTLING HELL AND FIND HIMSELF IN A SUBLIME SYLVAN SOLITUDE SUPERIOR TO THE CEDARS OF LEBANON AND INFERIOR ONLY IN EXTENT TO THE CHESTNUT FORESTS OF ANATOLIA.

IT IS HERE THAT WE SHOULD GET OUR SPEECHES BY HEART INVENT OUR IMPROMPTUS MUSE OVER THE CAPRICES OF OUR MISTRESSES DESTROY A CABINET AND SAVE A NATION.

+ALL THAT SUMMER AFTER TAKING CORINTH WE CHASED UP AND DOWN THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI TRYING TO GET FAIR BATTLE WITH THE REBEL ARMY. IT WAS FOUGHT BY A HANDFUL OF THE TROOPS OF GENERAL ROSECRANS AGAINST HALF THE ARMY OF GENERAL PRICE. GRANT WAS ONLY A FEW MILES AWAY BUT ALTHOUGH COMMANDER IN CHIEF HE KNEW NOTHING OF THE HARDEST FOUGHT BATTLE OF THE CIVIL WAR UNTIL IT WAS OVER. HOW EAGERLY THE REGIMENT MADE THE FORWARD MARCH ON THAT BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN DAY. THE WOODS WERE IN THEIR FAIREST FOLIAGE AND IT SEEMED TOO LOVELY A DAY FOR WAR AND BLOODSHED. THE BUGLES PLAYED OCCASIONALLY AS THE MEN HURRIED ALONG BUT NOT A SHOT WAS FIRED. THEY HAD TIME FOR REFLECTION AS THEY MARCHED AND THEY KNEW NOW THEY WERE GOING TO BATTLE. THERE WERE ONLY FOUR HUNDRED EIGHTY TWO OF MY LITTLE REGIMENT NOW MARCHING THERE HOPING ALMOST PRAYING THE ENEMY MIGHT ONLY WAIT. HOW LITTLE ANYONE DREAMED THAT BEFORE THE SUN SET TWO HUNDRED SEVENTEEN OF THAT LITTLE COMMAND WOULD BE STRETCHED DEAD OR DYING AMONG THE AUTUMN LEAVES. IT WAS JUST TWO O'CLOCK WHEN THE REGIMENT RAN ON TO THE ARMY OF THE ENEMY LYING IN LINE RIGHT ACROSS THE ROAD CLOSE TO IUKA. MY OWN REGIMENT WAS IN THE ADVANCE. INSTANTLY IT TOO WAS IN LINE OF BATTLE ACROSS THAT ROAD AND IN A FEW MINUTES ABSOLUTELY THE FIERCEST LITTLE CONFLICT OF THE WAR BEGAN. OUR BRIGADE WAS FEARFULLY OUTNUMBERED. ROSECRANS HAD TEN THOUSAND SOLDIERS WITHIN FIVE MILES OF THE BATTLEFIELD YET LET THREE OR FOUR SMALL REGIMENTS AND A BATTERY DO ALL THE FIGHTING. TEN MILES AWAY IN ANOTHER DIRECTION LAY GENERAL GRANT AND GENERAL ORD WITH MANY OTHER THOUSANDS AS SILENT AS IF PARALYZED. AN UNLUCKY WIND BLEW THEY SAID AND THE SOUND OF OUR CANNON THAT WAS TO HAVE BEEN THE SIGNAL FOR THEM TO ATTACK ALSO WAS UNHEARD BY THEM. CHARGE AFTER CHARGE WAS MADE UPON OUR LITTLE LINE AND THE ELEVENTH OHIO BATTERY WHICH THE REGIMENT WAS PROTECTING WAS TAKEN AND RETAKEN THREE TIMES. THERE WERE NO BREASTWORKS YET THAT ONE LITTLE BRIGADE OF HAMILTON'S DIVISION STOOD THERE IN THE OPEN AND REPULSED ASSAULT AFTER ASSAULT. IT WAS THE IOWA THE MISSOURI AND THE OHIO BOYS AGAINST THE BOYS OF ALABAMA AND MISSISSIPPI AND THE GRASS AND LEAVES WERE COVERED WITH THE BODIES IN BLUE AND GRAY. NOT BALAKLAVA NOR THE ALMA SAW SUCH FIGHTING IT WAS A DUEL TO THE DEATH. EVERY HORSE OF THE BATTERY AT THE LEFT OF MY REGIMENT WAS KILLED AND EVERY GUNNER BUT ONE OR TWO WAS SHOT AND LYING AMONG THE DEBRIS. NO BATTERY IN THE WHOLE FOUR YEARS WAR LOST SO MANY MEN IN SO SHORT A TIME. ANTIETAM GETTYSBURG THE WILDERNESS COULD SHOW NOTHING LIKE IT. ONLY THE SETTING SUN PUT AN END TO WHAT WAS PART OF THE TIME A HAND TO HAND CONFLICT. ONE DARING REBEL WAS SHOT DOWN AND BAYONETED CLEAR BEHIND THE LINE OF COMPANY B WHERE HE HAD BROKEN THROUGH TO SEIZE THE FLAG OF MY REGIMENT. THAT NIGHT THE ENEMY SLIPPED AWAY LEAVING HUNDREDS AND HUNDREDS OF HIS DEAD AND WOUNDED ON THE FIELD. WITH A FEW LANTERNS OUR MEN THEN WENT ABOUT AND TRIED TO GATHER UP THE WOUNDED THE DEAD WERE LEFT TILL MORNING. THERE WERE SEVEN HUNDRED EIGHTY TWO UNION MEN LYING THERE IN THEIR BLOOD THAT LONG NIGHT SIX HUNDRED EIGHT OF THEM OUT OF A SINGLE SMALL BRIGADE. WHILE MOTHERS AND SISTERS AT HOME WERE PRAYING FOR THE SAFETY OF THESE DEAR ONES AT THE FRONT THEIR SPIRITS THAT NIGHT WERE LEAVING THEIR TORN BODIES IN THE DARK AND ASCENDING HEAVENWARD. FIVE OF MY EIGHT MESSMATES OF THE DAY BEFORE WERE SHOT. IT WAS NOT A QUESTION WHO WAS DEAD OR WOUNDED BUT WHO WAS NOT. FIFTEEN OFFICERS OF OUR LITTLE HALF REGIMENT WERE DEAD OR WOUNDED

+ONCE UPON A TIME THERE DWELT NEAR A LARGE WOOD A POOR WOOD CUTTER WITH HIS WIFE AND TWO CHILDREN BY HIS FORMER MARRIAGE A LITTLE BOY CALLED HANSEL AND A GIRL NAMED GRETHEL. HE HAD LITTLE ENOUGH TO BREAK OR BITE AND ONCE WHEN THERE WAS A GREAT FAMINE IN THE LAND HE COULD HARDLY PROCURE EVEN HIS DAILY BREAD AND AS HE LAY THINKING IN HIS BED ONE NIGHT HE SIGHED AND SAID TO HIS WIFE WHAT WILL BECOME OF US. HOW CAN WE FEED OUR CHILDREN WHEN WE HAVE NO MORE THAN WE CAN EAT OURSELVES. OH YOU SIMPLETON SAID SHE THEN WE MUST ALL FOUR DIE OF HUNGER YOU HAD BETTER PLANE THE COFFINS FOR US. BUT SHE LEFT HIM NO PEACE TILL HE CONSENTED SAYING AH BUT I SHALL MISS THE POOR CHILDREN. GRETHEL WEPT BITTERLY AND SAID TO HANSEL WHAT WILL BECOME OF US. BE QUIET GRETHEL SAID HE DO NOT CRY I WILL HELP YOU. AND AS SOON AS THEIR PARENTS HAD GONE TO SLEEP HE GOT UP PUT ON HIS COAT AND UNBARRING THE BACK DOOR WENT OUT. THE MOON SHONE BRIGHTLY AND THE WHITE PEBBLES WHICH LAY BEFORE THE DOOR SEEMED LIKE SILVER PIECES THEY GLITTERED SO BRIGHTLY. AND SO SAYING HE WENT TO BED AGAIN. THE NEXT MORNING BEFORE THE SUN AROSE THE WIFE WENT AND AWOKE THE TWO CHILDREN. GET UP YOU LAZY THINGS WE ARE GOING INTO THE FOREST TO CHOP WOOD. THEN SHE GAVE THEM EACH A PIECE OF BREAD SAYING THERE IS SOMETHING FOR YOUR DINNER DO NOT EAT IT BEFORE THE TIME FOR YOU WILL GET NOTHING ELSE. AH FATHER SAID HANSEL I AM LOOKING AT MY WHITE CAT SITTING UPON THE ROOF OF THE HOUSE AND TRYING TO SAY GOOD BYE. BUT IN REALITY HANSEL WAS NOT LOOKING AT A CAT BUT EVERY TIME HE STOPPED HE DROPPED A PEBBLE OUT OF HIS POCKET UPON THE PATH. THEN THEY SET FIRE TO THEM AND AS THE FLAME BURNT UP HIGH THE WIFE SAID NOW YOU CHILDREN LIE DOWN NEAR THE FIRE AND REST YOURSELVES WHILST WE GO INTO THE FOREST AND CHOP MORE WOOD WHEN WE ARE READY WE WILL COME AND CALL YOU. HANSEL AND GRETHEL SAT DOWN BY THE FIRE AND WHEN IT WAS NOON EACH ATE THE PIECE OF BREAD AND BECAUSE THEY COULD HEAR THE BLOWS OF AN AXE THEY THOUGHT THEIR FATHER WAS NEAR BUT IT WAS NOT AN AXE BUT A BRANCH WHICH HE HAD BOUND TO AN OLD TREE SO AS TO BE BLOWN TO AND FRO BY THE WIND. WHEN THEY AWOKE IT WAS QUITE DARK AND GRETHEL BEGAN TO CRY. HOW SHALL WE GET OUT OF THE WOOD. BUT HER HUSBAND FELT HEAVY AT HEART AND THOUGHT IT WERE BETTER TO SHARE THE LAST CRUST WITH THE CHILDREN. HIS WIFE HOWEVER WOULD LISTEN TO NOTHING THAT HE SAID AND SCOLDED AND REPROACHED HIM WITHOUT END. HE WHO SAYS A MUST SAY B TOO AND HE WHO CONSENTS THE FIRST TIME MUST ALSO THE SECOND. EARLY IN THE MORNING THE STEPMOTHER CAME AND PULLED THEM OUT OF BED AND GAVE THEM EACH A SLICE OF BREAD WHICH WAS STILL SMALLER THAN THE FORMER PIECE. ON THE WAY HANSEL BROKE HIS IN HIS POCKET AND STOPPING EVERY NOW AND THEN DROPPED A CRUMB UPON THE PATH. HANSEL WHY DO YOU STOP AND LOOK ABOUT SAID THE FATHER KEEP IN THE PATH. I AM LOOKING AT MY LITTLE DOVE ANSWERED HANSEL NODDING A GOOD BYE TO ME. BUT HANSEL KEPT STILL DROPPING CRUMBS AS HE WENT ALONG. WE ARE GOING INTO THE FOREST TO HEW WOOD AND IN THE EVENING WHEN WE ARE READY WE WILL COME AND FETCH YOU AGAIN. WHEN NOON CAME GRETHEL SHARED HER BREAD WITH HANSEL WHO HAD STREWN HIS ON THE PATH. THEY THEN WENT TO SLEEP BUT THE EVENING ARRIVED AND NO ONE CAME TO VISIT THE POOR CHILDREN AND IN THE DARK NIGHT THEY AWOKE AND HANSEL COMFORTED HIS SISTER BY SAYING ONLY WAIT GRETHEL TILL THE MOON COMES OUT THEN WE SHALL SEE THE CRUMBS OF BREAD WHICH I HAVE DROPPED AND THEY WILL SHOW US THE WAY HOME. THE MOON SHONE AND THEY GOT UP BUT THEY COULD NOT SEE ANY CRUMBS FOR THE THOUSANDS OF BIRDS WHICH HAD BEEN FLYING ABOUT IN THE WOODS AND FIELDS HAD PICKED THEM ALL UP

+NEVERTHELESS OR PERHAPS INDEED IT MAY HAVE BEEN PARTLY ON THAT VERY ACCOUNT HE DID NOT IN THOSE OPENING YEARS READ DANTE TO ANY DEGREE WORTH MENTIONING HE WAS WELL VERSED IN SHAKESPEARE WALTER SCOTT BYRON AND SOME OTHER WRITERS YEARS BEFORE HE APPLIED HIMSELF TO DANTE. FROM READING ROSSETTI WENT ON TO TRANSLATING. HE TRANSLATED AT AN EARLY AGE CHIEFLY BETWEEN EIGHTEEN FORTY FIVE AND EIGHTEEN FORTY NINE A GREAT NUMBER OF POEMS BY THE ITALIANS CONTEMPORARY WITH DANTE OR PRECEDING HIM AND AMONG OTHER THINGS HE MADE A VERSION OF THE WHOLE VITA NUOVA PROSE AND VERSE. THIS MAY POSSIBLY HAVE BEEN THE FIRST IMPORTANT THING THAT HE TRANSLATED FROM THE ITALIAN IF NOT THE FIRST STILL LESS WAS IT THE LAST AND IT MAY WELL BE THAT HIS RENDERING OF THE BOOK WAS COMPLETED WITHIN THE YEAR EIGHTEEN FORTY SIX OR EARLY IN EIGHTEEN FORTY SEVEN. STILL THE WORK AS WE NOW HAVE IT IS ESSENTIALLY THE WORK OF THOSE ADOLESCENT YEARS FROM TIME TO TIME RECONSIDERED AND IMPROVED BUT NOT TRANSMUTED. THIS PROJECT HOWEVER HAD TO BE LAID ASIDE OWING TO WANT OF MEANS AND THE ETCHINGS WERE NEVER UNDERTAKEN. THIS BOOK IN ITS ORIGINAL FORM WAS RECEIVED WITH FAVOUR AND SETTLED THE CLAIM OF ROSSETTI TO RANK AS A POETIC TRANSLATOR OR INDEED AS A POET IN HIS OWN RIGHT. FOR THE EARLY ITALIAN POETS HE WROTE A PREFACE FROM WHICH A PASSAGE IMMEDIATELY RELATING TO THE VITA NUOVA IS EXTRACTED IN THE PRESENT EDITION. THE LIFE BLOOD OF RHYTHMICAL TRANSLATION IS THIS COMMANDMENT THAT A GOOD POEM SHALL NOT BE TURNED INTO A BAD ONE. THE ONLY TRUE MOTIVE FOR PUTTING POETRY INTO A FRESH LANGUAGE MUST BE TO ENDOW A FRESH NATION AS FAR AS POSSIBLE WITH ONE MORE POSSESSION OF BEAUTY. POETRY NOT BEING AN EXACT SCIENCE LITERALITY OF RENDERING IS ALTOGETHER SECONDARY TO THIS CHIEF LAW. I SAY LITERALITY NOT FIDELITY WHICH IS BY NO MEANS THE SAME THING. ANY MERIT POSSESSED BY THESE TRANSLATIONS IS DERIVED FROM AN EFFORT TO FOLLOW THIS PRINCIPLE. THE TASK OF THE TRANSLATOR AND WITH ALL HUMILITY BE IT SPOKEN IS ONE OF SOME SELF DENIAL. OFTEN WOULD HE AVAIL HIMSELF OF ANY SPECIAL GRACE OF HIS OWN IDIOM AND EPOCH IF ONLY HIS WILL BELONGED TO HIM OFTEN WOULD SOME CADENCE SERVE HIM BUT FOR HIS AUTHOR'S STRUCTURE SOME STRUCTURE BUT FOR HIS AUTHOR'S CADENCE OFTEN THE BEAUTIFUL TURN OF A STANZA MUST BE WEAKENED TO ADOPT SOME RHYME WHICH WILL TALLY AND HE SEES THE POET REVELLING IN ABUNDANCE OF LANGUAGE WHERE HIMSELF IS SCANTILY SUPPLIED. NOW HE WOULD SLIGHT THE MATTER FOR THE MUSIC AND NOW THE MUSIC FOR THE MATTER BUT NO HE MUST DEAL TO EACH ALIKE. SOMETIMES TOO A FLAW IN THE WORK GALLS HIM AND HE WOULD FAIN REMOVE IT DOING FOR THE POET THAT WHICH HIS AGE DENIED HIM BUT NO IT IS NOT IN THE BOND. IT MAY BE AS WELL TO EXPLAIN HERE A VERY SMALL SHARE WHICH I MYSELF TOOK IN THE VITA NUOVA TRANSLATION. HE DEFINED THE WORK FURTHER AS FOLLOWS WHAT I WANT IS THAT YOU SHOULD CORRECT MY TRANSLATION THROUGHOUT REMOVING INACCURACIES AND MANNERISMS. AND IF YOU HAVE TIME IT WOULD BE A GREAT SERVICE TO TRANSLATE THE ANALYSES OF THE POEMS WHICH I OMITTED. THIS HOWEVER IF YOU THINK IT DESIRABLE TO INCLUDE THEM. I DID NOT AT THE TIME ON GROUND OF READABLENESS BUT SINCE THINK THEY MAY BE DESIRABLE ONLY HAVE BECOME SO UNFAMILIAR WITH THE BOOK THAT I HAVE NO DISTINCT OPINION. ON JANUARY TWENTY FIFTH HE WROTE MANY AND MANY THANKS FOR A MOST ESSENTIAL SERVICE MOST THOROUGHLY PERFORMED. MY NOTES WHICH YOU HAVE TAKEN THE TROUBLE OF REVISING ARE OF COURSE QUITE PALTRY AND USELESS. HEAR HOW MUCH LOVE DID HER HONOURING FOR I SAW HIM LAMENTING IN VERY PERSON OVER THE DEAD SEEMLY IMAGE AND OFTEN HE GAZED TOWARDS HEAVEN WHEREIN WAS ALREADY SETTLED THE NOBLE SOUL WHO HAD BEEN A LADY OF SUCH GLADSOME SEMBLANCE. IT WOULD BE OUT OF PLACE TO ENTER HERE INTO ANY DETAILED OBSERVATIONS UPON THE VITA NUOVA ITS MEANING AND THE LITERATURE WHICH HAS GROWN OUT OF IT. IT IS THEREFORE AND ON ALL ACCOUNTS UNNECESSARY TO SAY MUCH MORE OF THE WORK HERE THAN IT SAYS FOR ITSELF. THROUGHOUT THE VITA NUOVA THERE IS A STRAIN LIKE THE FIRST FALLING MURMUR WHICH REACHES THE EAR IN SOME REMOTE MEADOW AND PREPARES US TO LOOK UPON THE SEA

+THEREAFTER THIS SONNET BRED IN ME DESIRE TO WRITE DOWN IN VERSE FOUR OTHER THINGS TOUCHING MY CONDITION THE WHICH THINGS IT SEEMED TO ME THAT I HAD NOT YET MADE MANIFEST. AND I SAID THESE FOUR THINGS IN A SONNET WHICH IS THIS. AT WHILES YEA OFTENTIMES I MUSE OVER THE QUALITY OF ANGUISH THAT IS MINE THROUGH LOVE THEN PITY MAKES MY VOICE TO PINE SAYING IS ANY ELSE THUS ANYWHERE. AND THEN IF I WHOM OTHER AID FORSOOK WOULD AID MYSELF AND INNOCENT OF ART WOULD FAIN HAVE SIGHT OF THEE AS A LAST HOPE NO SOONER DO I LIFT MINE EYES TO LOOK THAN THE BLOOD SEEMS AS SHAKEN FROM MY HEART AND ALL MY PULSES BEAT AT ONCE AND STOP. WHEREFORE I SAY THAT THE SECOND PART BEGINS LOVE SMITETH ME THE THIRD AND THEN IF I THE FOURTH NO SOONER DO I LIFT. BUT ALBEIT I SPAKE NOT TO HER AGAIN YET IT BEHOVED ME AFTERWARD TO WRITE OF ANOTHER MATTER MORE NOBLE THAN THE FOREGOING. AND FOR THAT THE OCCASION OF WHAT I THEN WROTE MAY BE FOUND PLEASANT IN THE HEARING I WILL RELATE IT AS BRIEFLY AS I MAY. THROUGH THE SORE CHANGE IN MINE ASPECT THE SECRET OF MY HEART WAS NOW UNDERSTOOD OF MANY. WHICH THING BEING THUS THERE CAME A DAY WHEN CERTAIN LADIES TO WHOM IT WAS WELL KNOWN THEY HAVING BEEN WITH ME AT DIVERS TIMES IN MY TROUBLE WERE MET TOGETHER FOR THE PLEASURE OF GENTLE COMPANY. AND AS I WAS GOING THAT WAY BY CHANCE BUT I THINK RATHER BY THE WILL OF FORTUNE I HEARD ONE OF THEM CALL UNTO ME AND SHE THAT CALLED WAS A LADY OF VERY SWEET SPEECH. AND WHEN I HAD COME CLOSE UP WITH THEM AND PERCEIVED THAT THEY HAD NOT AMONG THEM MINE EXCELLENT LADY I WAS REASSURED AND SALUTED THEM ASKING OF THEIR PLEASURE. THE LADIES WERE MANY DIVERS OF WHOM WERE LAUGHING ONE TO ANOTHER WHILE DIVERS GAZED AT ME AS THOUGH I SHOULD SPEAK ANON. BUT WHEN I STILL SPAKE NOT ONE OF THEM WHO BEFORE HAD BEEN TALKING WITH ANOTHER ADDRESSED ME BY MY NAME SAYING TO WHAT END LOVEST THOU THIS LADY SEEING THAT THOU CANST NOT SUPPORT HER PRESENCE. AND WHEN SHE HAD SPOKEN THESE WORDS NOT SHE ONLY BUT ALL THEY THAT WERE WITH HER BEGAN TO OBSERVE ME WAITING FOR MY REPLY. AND NOW THAT IT HATH PLEASED HER TO DENY ME THIS LOVE MY MASTER OF HIS GREAT GOODNESS HATH PLACED ALL MY BEATITUDE THERE WHERE MY HOPE WILL NOT FAIL ME. THEN THOSE LADIES BEGAN TO TALK CLOSELY TOGETHER AND AS I HAVE SEEN SNOW FALL AMONG THE RAIN SO WAS THEIR TALK MINGLED WITH SIGHS. BUT AFTER A LITTLE THAT LADY WHO HAD BEEN THE FIRST TO ADDRESS ME ADDRESSED ME AGAIN IN THESE WORDS WE PRAY THEE THAT THOU WILT TELL US WHEREIN ABIDETH THIS THY BEATITUDE. AND ANSWERING I SAID BUT THUS MUCH IN THOSE WORDS THAT DO PRAISE MY LADY. THEN I BEING ALMOST PUT TO SHAME BECAUSE OF HER ANSWER WENT OUT FROM AMONG THEM AND AS I WALKED I SAID WITHIN MYSELF SEEING THAT THERE IS SO MUCH BEATITUDE IN THOSE WORDS WHICH DO PRAISE MY LADY WHEREFORE HATH MY SPEECH OF HER BEEN DIFFERENT. AND THEN I RESOLVED THAT THENCEFORWARD I WOULD CHOOSE FOR THE THEME OF MY WRITINGS ONLY THE PRAISE OF THIS MOST GRACIOUS BEING. WHEREUPON I DECLARE THAT MY TONGUE SPAKE AS THOUGH BY ITS OWN IMPULSE AND SAID LADIES THAT HAVE INTELLIGENCE IN LOVE. THESE WORDS I LAID UP IN MY MIND WITH GREAT GLADNESS CONCEIVING TO TAKE THEM AS MY COMMENCEMENT. LADIES THAT HAVE INTELLIGENCE IN LOVE OF MINE OWN LADY I WOULD SPEAK WITH YOU NOT THAT I HOPE TO COUNT HER PRAISES THROUGH BUT TELLING WHAT I MAY TO EASE MY MIND. AND I DECLARE THAT WHEN I SPEAK THEREOF LOVE SHEDS SUCH PERFECT SWEETNESS OVER ME THAT IF MY COURAGE FAILED NOT CERTAINLY TO HIM MY LISTENERS MUST BE ALL RESIGN'D. WHEREFORE I WILL NOT SPEAK IN SUCH LARGE KIND THAT MINE OWN SPEECH SHOULD FOIL ME WHICH WERE BASE BUT ONLY WILL DISCOURSE OF HER HIGH GRACE IN THESE POOR WORDS THE BEST THAT I CAN FIND WITH YOU ALONE DEAR DAMES AND DAMOZELS TWERE ILL TO SPEAK THEREOF WITH ANY ELSE. AN ANGEL OF HIS BLESSED KNOWLEDGE SAITH TO GOD LORD IN THE WORLD THAT THOU HAST MADE A MIRACLE IN ACTION IS DISPLAY'D BY REASON OF A SOUL WHOSE SPLENDOURS FARE EVEN HITHER AND SINCE HEAVEN REQUIRETH NOUGHT SAVING HER FOR HER IT PRAYETH THEE THY SAINTS CRYING ALOUD CONTINUALLY

+NEXT DAY TOWARDS NIGHT WE LAID UP UNDER A LITTLE WILLOW TOWHEAD OUT IN THE MIDDLE WHERE THERE WAS A VILLAGE ON EACH SIDE OF THE RIVER AND THE DUKE AND THE KING BEGUN TO LAY OUT A PLAN FOR WORKING THEM TOWNS. JIM HE SPOKE TO THE DUKE AND SAID HE HOPED IT WOULDN'T TAKE BUT A FEW HOURS BECAUSE IT GOT MIGHTY HEAVY AND TIRESOME TO HIM WHEN HE HAD TO LAY ALL DAY IN THE WIGWAM TIED WITH THE ROPE. SO THE DUKE SAID IT WAS KIND OF HARD TO HAVE TO LAY ROPED ALL DAY AND HE'D CIPHER OUT SOME WAY TO GET AROUND IT. BLAMED IF HE WARN'T THE HORRIBLEST LOOKING OUTRAGE I EVER SEE. THEN THE DUKE TOOK AND WROTE OUT A SIGN ON A SHINGLE SO. WHICH WAS SOUND ENOUGH JUDGMENT BUT YOU TAKE THE AVERAGE MAN AND HE WOULDN'T WAIT FOR HIM TO HOWL. WHY HE DIDN'T ONLY LOOK LIKE HE WAS DEAD HE LOOKED CONSIDERABLE MORE THAN THAT. THE KING'S DUDS WAS ALL BLACK AND HE DID LOOK REAL SWELL AND STARCHY. I NEVER KNOWED HOW CLOTHES COULD CHANGE A BODY BEFORE. WHY BEFORE HE LOOKED LIKE THE ORNERIEST OLD RIP THAT EVER WAS BUT NOW WHEN HE'D TAKE OFF HIS NEW WHITE BEAVER AND MAKE A BOW AND DO A SMILE HE LOOKED THAT GRAND AND GOOD AND PIOUS THAT YOU'D SAY HE HAD WALKED RIGHT OUT OF THE ARK AND MAYBE WAS OLD LEVITICUS HIMSELF. JIM CLEANED UP THE CANOE AND I GOT MY PADDLE READY. SEEIN HOW I'M DRESSED I RECKON MAYBE I BETTER ARRIVE DOWN FROM SAINT LOUIS OR CINCINNATI OR SOME OTHER BIG PLACE. GO FOR THE STEAMBOAT HUCKLEBERRY WE'LL COME DOWN TO THE VILLAGE ON HER. I DIDN'T HAVE TO BE ORDERED TWICE TO GO AND TAKE A STEAMBOAT RIDE. RUN HER NOSE IN SHORE SAYS THE KING I DONE IT. WHER YOU BOUND FOR YOUNG MAN. FOR THE STEAMBOAT GOING TO ORLEANS. GIT ABOARD SAYS THE KING. I DONE SO AND THEN WE ALL THREE STARTED ON AGAIN. THE YOUNG CHAP WAS MIGHTY THANKFUL SAID IT WAS TOUGH WORK TOTING HIS BAGGAGE SUCH WEATHER. HE ASKED THE KING WHERE HE WAS GOING AND THE KING TOLD HIM HE'D COME DOWN THE RIVER AND LANDED AT THE OTHER VILLAGE THIS MORNING AND NOW HE WAS GOING UP A FEW MILE TO SEE AN OLD FRIEND ON A FARM UP THERE THE YOUNG FELLOW SAYS. WHEN I FIRST SEE YOU I SAYS TO MYSELF IT'S MISTER WILKS SURE AND HE COME MIGHTY NEAR GETTING HERE IN TIME. BUT THEN I SAYS AGAIN NO I RECKON IT AIN'T HIM OR ELSE HE WOULDN'T BE PADDLING UP THE RIVER YOU AIN'T HIM ARE YOU. NO MY NAME'S BLODGETT ELEXANDER BLODGETT REVEREND ELEXANDER BLODGETT I S'POSE I MUST SAY AS I'M ONE O THE LORD'S POOR SERVANTS. BUT STILL I'M JIST AS ABLE TO BE SORRY FOR MISTER WILKS FOR NOT ARRIVING IN TIME ALL THE SAME IF HE'S MISSED ANYTHING BY ITWHICH I HOPE HE HASN'T. PETER AND GEORGE WERE THE ONLY ONES THAT COME OUT HERE GEORGE WAS THE MARRIED BROTHER HIM AND HIS WIFE BOTH DIED LAST YEAR. DID ANYBODY SEND EM WORD. YOU SEE HE WAS PRETTY OLD AND GEORGE'S G'YIRLS WAS TOO YOUNG TO BE MUCH COMPANY FOR HIM EXCEPT MARY JANE THE RED HEADED ONE AND SO HE WAS KINDER LONESOME AFTER GEORGE AND HIS WIFE DIED AND DIDN'T SEEM TO CARE MUCH TO LIVE. AND THAT LETTER WAS ALL THEY COULD GET HIM TO PUT A PEN TO. TOO BAD TOO BAD HE COULDN'T A LIVED TO SEE HIS BROTHERS POOR SOUL. YES BUT THAT AIN'T ONLY A PART OF IT. I'M GOING IN A SHIP NEXT WEDNESDAY FOR RYO JANEERO WHERE MY UNCLE LIVES. IT'S A PRETTY LONG JOURNEY. BUT IT'LL BE LOVELY WISHT I WAS A GOING. IS MARY JANE THE OLDEST HOW OLD IS THE OTHERS.

+AS I THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS DUE TO SOME FAULT IN THE EARTH I WANTED TO MAKE THESE FIRST EXPERIMENTS BEFORE I UNDERTOOK MY PERSEUS. WHEN I SAW THAT THIS BUST CAME OUT SHARP AND CLEAN I SET AT ONCE TO CONSTRUCT A LITTLE FURNACE IN THE WORKSHOP ERECTED FOR ME BY THE DUKE AFTER MY OWN PLANS AND DESIGN IN THE HOUSE WHICH THE DUKE HAD GIVEN ME. NO SOONER WAS THE FURNACE READY THAN I WENT TO WORK WITH ALL DILIGENCE UPON THE CASTING OF MEDUSA THAT IS THE WOMAN TWISTED IN A HEAP BENEATH THE FEET OF PERSEUS. IT WAS AN EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TASK AND I WAS ANXIOUS TO OBSERVE ALL THE NICETIES OF ART WHICH I HAD LEARNED SO AS NOT TO LAPSE INTO SOME ERROR. IT IS TRUE THAT CERTAIN GERMANS AND FRENCHMEN WHO VAUNT THE POSSESSION OF MARVELLOUS SECRETS PRETEND THAT THEY CAN CAST BRONZES WITHOUT RETOUCHING THEM BUT THIS IS REALLY NONSENSE BECAUSE THE BRONZE WHEN IT HAS FIRST BEEN CAST OUGHT TO BE WORKED OVER AND BEATEN IN WITH HAMMERS AND CHISELS ACCORDING TO THE MANNER OF THE ANCIENTS AND ALSO TO THAT OF THE MODERNS I MEAN SUCH MODERNS AS HAVE KNOWN HOW TO WORK IN BRONZE. I IN MY TURN FEEL THE SAME DESIRE AND HOPE TO PLAY MY PART LIKE THEM THEREFORE MY LORD GIVE ME THE LEAVE TO GO. BUT BEWARE OF LETTING BANDINELLO QUIT YOU RATHER BESTOW UPON HIM ALWAYS MORE THAN HE DEMANDS FOR IF HE GOES INTO FOREIGN PARTS HIS IGNORANCE IS SO PRESUMPTUOUS THAT HE IS JUST THE MAN TO DISGRACE OUR MOST ILLUSTRIOUS SCHOOL. NOW GRANT ME MY PERMISSION PRINCE. I ASK NO FURTHER REWARD FOR MY LABOURS UP TO THIS TIME THAN THE GRACIOUS FAVOUR OF YOUR MOST ILLUSTRIOUS EXCELLENCY. WHEN HE SAW THE FIRMNESS OF MY RESOLUTION HE TURNED WITH SOME IRRITATION AND EXCLAIMED BENVENUTO IF YOU WANT TO FINISH THE STATUE YOU SHALL LACK FOR NOTHING. THEN I THANKED HIM AND SAID I HAD NO GREATER DESIRE THAN TO SHOW THOSE ENVIOUS FOLK THAT I HAD IT IN ME TO EXECUTE THE PROMISED WORK. HIS EXCELLENCY HAD ALSO COMMISSIONED ME TO MAKE A LITTLE MODEL FOR A PENDENT TO SET THE GREAT DIAMOND WHICH BERNARDONE AND ANTONIO LANDI MADE HIM BUY. I TRIED TO GET OUT OF DOING IT BUT THE DUKE COMPELLED ME BY ALL SORTS OF KINDLY PRESSURE TO WORK UNTIL FOUR HOURS AFTER NIGHTFALL. HE KEPT INDEED ENTICING ME TO PUSH THIS JOB FORWARD BY DAYTIME ALSO BUT I WOULD NOT CONSENT ALTHOUGH I FELT SURE I SHOULD INCUR HIS ANGER. BUT AS I SUPPOSE YOUR EXCELLENCY IS JOKING I WILL ADD NO MORE. HE REPLIED THAT FAR FROM JOKING HE MEANT SOLEMN EARNEST. I HAD BETTER LOOK TO MY CONDUCT FOR IT HAD COME TO HIS EARS THAT I RELIED UPON HIS FAVOUR TO TAKE IN FIRST ONE MAN AND THEN ANOTHER. I BEGGED HIS MOST ILLUSTRIOUS EXCELLENCY TO NAME A SINGLE PERSON WHOM I HAD EVER TAKEN IN. AT THIS HE FLEW INTO A RAGE AND SAID GO AND GIVE BACK TO BERNARDONE WHAT YOU HAVE OF HIS THERE I HAVE MENTIONED ONE. I SAID MY LORD I THANK YOU AND BEG YOU TO CONDESCEND SO FAR AS TO LISTEN TO FOUR WORDS IT IS TRUE THAT HE LENT ME A PAIR OF OLD SCALES TWO ANVILS AND THREE LITTLE HAMMERS WHICH ARTICLES I BEGGED HIS WORKMAN GIORGIO DA CORTONA FIFTEEN DAYS AGO TO FETCH BACK. GIORGIO CAME FOR THEM HIMSELF. WHEN THE DUKE SAW ME IN THIS MIGHTY PASSION HE ASSUMED THE AIR OF A PRUDENT AND BENEVOLENT LORD SAYING THOSE WORDS ARE NOT MEANT FOR WELL DOERS THEREFORE IF IT IS AS YOU SAY I SHALL ALWAYS RECEIVE YOU WITH THE SAME KINDNESS AS HERETOFORE. TO THIS I ANSWERED I SHOULD LIKE YOUR EXCELLENCY TO KNOW THAT THE RASCALITIES OF BERNARDONE COMPEL ME TO ASK AS A FAVOR HOW MUCH THAT BIG DIAMOND WITH THE CROPPED POINT COST YOU. I HOPE TO PROVE ON WHAT ACCOUNT THAT SCOUNDREL TRIES TO BRING ME INTO DISGRACE. THEN HIS EXCELLENCY REPLIED I PAID TWENTY FIVE THOUSAND DUCATS FOR IT WHY DO YOU ASK ME

+DOMENICO POGGINI AND GIANPAGOLO HIS BROTHER WHO ARE PRESENT WILL CONFIRM MY WORDS FOR I SPOKE TO THEM AT ONCE ABOUT IT AND SINCE THAT TIME HAVE NEVER ONCE ALLUDED TO THE MATTER BECAUSE YOUR EXCELLENCY TOLD ME I DID NOT UNDERSTAND THESE THINGS WHICH MADE ME THINK YOU WANTED TO KEEP UP THE CREDIT OF YOUR STONE. I SHALL NOT TRY TO ROB YOU OF EIGHT OR TEN THOUSAND DUCATS AT ONE GO BUT SHALL RATHER SEEK TO EARN THEM BY MY INDUSTRY. I ENTERED THE SERVICE OF YOUR EXCELLENCY AS SCULPTOR GOLDSMITH AND STAMPER OF COIN BUT TO BLAB ABOUT MY NEIGHBOURS PRIVATE MATTERS NEVER. WHEN HE HAD HEARD THIS SPEECH THE DUKE ROSE UP IN ANGER AND SENT FOR BERNARDONE WHO WAS FORCED TO TAKE FLIGHT AS FAR AS VENICE HE AND ANTONIO LANDI WITH HIM. SO THEN THEY WENT AND CAME AGAIN FROM VENICE WHEREUPON I PRESENTED MYSELF TO THE DUKE AND SPOKE AS FOLLOWS MY LORD WHAT I TOLD YOU IS THE TRUTH AND WHAT BERNARDONE SAID ABOUT THE TOOLS HE LENT ME IS A LIE. YOU HAD BETTER PUT THIS TO THE PROOF AND I WILL GO AT ONCE TO THE BARGELLO. THE DUKE MADE ANSWER BENVENUTO DO YOUR BEST TO BE AN HONEST MAN AS YOU HAVE DONE UNTIL NOW YOU HAVE NO CAUSE FOR APPREHENSION. I AM WILLING TO ENTER INTO COMPETITION WITH THE ANCIENTS AND FEEL ABLE TO SURPASS THEM FOR SINCE THOSE EARLY DAYS IN WHICH I MADE THE MEDALS OF POPE CLEMENT I HAVE LEARNED SO MUCH THAT I CAN NOW PRODUCE FAR BETTER PIECES OF THE KIND I THINK I CAN ALSO OUTDO THE COINS I STRUCK FOR DUKE ALESSANDRO WHICH ARE STILL HELD IN HIGH ESTEEM IN LIKE MANNER I COULD MAKE FOR YOU LARGE PIECES OF GOLD AND SILVER PLATE AS I DID SO OFTEN FOR THAT NOBLE MONARCH KING FRANCIS OF FRANCE THANKS TO THE GREAT CONVENIENCES HE ALLOWED ME WITHOUT EVER LOSING TIME FOR THE EXECUTION OF COLOSSAL STATUES OR OTHER WORKS OF THE SCULPTORS CRAFT.

NOW I DID NOT CHOOSE TO NEGLECT MY PERSEUS AND AT THE SAME TIME I WISHED TO SERVE THE DUKE SO I ENTRUSTED THE METAL TOGETHER WITH MY DESIGNS AND MODELS IN WAX TO A RASCAL CALLED PIERO DI MARTINO A GOLDSMITH BY TRADE. HE SET THE WORK UP BADLY AND MOREOVER CEASED TO LABOUR AT IT SO THAT I LOST MORE TIME THAN IF I HAD TAKEN IT IN HAND MYSELF. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS WERE WASTED AND PIERO WOULD NEITHER WORK NOR PUT MEN TO WORK UPON THE PIECE I MADE HIM GIVE IT BACK. I MOVED HEAVEN AND EARTH TO GET BACK THE BODY OF THE VASE WHICH HE HAD BEGUN BADLY AS I HAVE ALREADY SAID TOGETHER WITH THE REMAINDER OF THE SILVER. THE DUKE HEARING SOMETHING OF THESE DISPUTES SENT FOR THE VASE AND THE MODELS AND NEVER TOLD ME WHY OR WHEREFORE. SUFFICE IT TO SAY THAT HE PLACED SOME OF MY DESIGNS IN THE HANDS OF DIVERS PERSONS AT VENICE AND ELSEWHERE AND WAS VERY ILL SERVED BY THEM. THE DUCHESS KEPT URGING ME TO DO GOLDSMITHS WORK FOR HER I FREQUENTLY REPLIED THAT EVERYBODY NAY ALL ITALY KNEW WELL I WAS AN EXCELLENT GOLDSMITH BUT ITALY HAD NOT YET SEEN WHAT I COULD DO IN SCULPTURE. AMONG ARTISTS CERTAIN ENRAGED SCULPTORS LAUGHED AT ME AND CALLED ME THE NEW SCULPTOR. NOW I HOPE TO SHOW THEM THAT I AM AN OLD SCULPTOR IF GOD SHALL GRANT ME THE BOON OF FINISHING MY PERSEUS FOR THAT NOBLE PIAZZA OF HIS MOST ILLUSTRIOUS EXCELLENCY. I ASKED LATTANZIO WHY HE DID NOT PAY ME AS USUAL. IN A RAGE I UP AND ANSWERED MAY THE PLAGUE CATCH YOU AND ALL WHO DARE TO THINK I SHALL NOT FINISH IT SO I WENT HOME WITH DESPAIR AT HEART TO MY UNLUCKY PERSEUS NOT WITHOUT WEEPING WHEN I REMEMBERED THE PROSPERITY I HAD ABANDONED IN PARIS UNDER THE PATRONAGE OF THAT MARVELLOUS KING FRANCIS WHERE I HAD ABUNDANCE OF ALL KINDS AND HERE HAD EVERYTHING TO WANT FOR. MANY A TIME I HAD IT IN MY SOUL TO CAST MYSELF AWAY FOR LOST. NO SOONER DID HE CATCH SIGHT OF ME THAN HE TURNED THE COLOUR OF A CORPSE AND TREMBLED FROM HEAD TO FOOT. PERCEIVING AT ONCE HOW BASE THE BUSINESS WOULD BE I EXCLAIMED FEAR NOT VILE COWARD

THEREUPON I RECOVERED COMMAND OF MY FACULTIES AND THANKED GOD THAT HIS GOODNESS HAD WITHHELD ME FROM SO GREAT AN ACT OF VIOLENCE.

+HE WOULD HAVE TALKED TO UGLY MISSUS W WYLDER HIS SISTER IN LAW AT HIS LEFT BUT SHE WAS ENTERTAINING LORD CHELFORD NOW. HE HAD NOTHING FOR IT BUT TO PERFORM CAVALIER SEUL WITH HIS SLICE OF MUTTON A SENSUAL SORT OF ISOLATION WHILE ALL THE WORLD WAS CHATTING SO AGREEABLY AND NOISILY AROUND HIM. HE WOULD HAVE LIKED AT THAT MOMENT A WALK UPON THE QUARTER DECK WITH A GOOD HEAD WIND BLOWING AND LIBERTY TO CURSE AND SWEAR A BIT OVER THE BULWARK. WOMEN ARE SO FULL OF CAPRICE AND HYPOCRISY AND HUMBUGGING IMPUDENCE. WYLDER WAS RATHER SURLY AFTER THE LADIES HAD FLOATED AWAY FROM THE SCENE AND HE DRANK HIS LIQUOR DOGGEDLY. IT WAS HIS FANCY I SUPPOSE TO REVIVE CERTAIN SENTIMENTAL RELATIONS WHICH HAD IT MAY BE ONCE EXISTED BETWEEN HIM AND MISS LAKE AND HE WAS A PERSON OF THAT COMBATIVE TEMPERAMENT THAT MAGNIFIES AN OBJECT IN PROPORTION AS ITS PURSUIT IS THWARTED. THE STORY OF FRIDOLIN AND RETZCH'S PRETTY OUTLINES. SIT DOWN BESIDE ME AND I'LL TELL YOU THE STORY. LORD CHELFORD HAD JOINED THE TWO LADIES AND HAD SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT GERMAN ART AND SOME PLEASANT LIGHTS TO THROW FROM FOREIGN TRAVEL AND DEVIOUS READING AND WAS AS USUAL INTELLIGENT AND AGREEABLE AND MARK WAS STILL MORE SORE AND ANGRY AND STRUTTED AWAY TO ANOTHER TABLE A LONG WAY OFF AND TOSSED OVER THE LEAVES OF A FOLIO OF WOUVERMAN'S WORKS AND DID NOT SEE ONE OF THE PLATES HE STARED AT SO SAVAGELY I DON'T THINK MARK WAS VERY CLEAR AS TO WHAT HE WANTED OR EVEN IF HE HAD HAD A COOL HALF HOUR TO DEFINE HIS WISHES THAT HE WOULD SERIOUSLY HAVE MODIFIED EXISTING ARRANGEMENTS. HE ASSISTED AT IT BUT TOOK NO PART AND IN FACT WAS LISTENING TO THAT OTHER CONVERSATION WHICH SOUNDED WITH ITS PLEASANT GABBLE AND LAUGHTER LIKE A LITTLE MUSICAL TINKLE OF BELLS IN THE DISTANCE. IT WAS DULL WORK HE LOOKED AT HIS WATCH THE BROUGHAM WOULD BE AT THE DOOR TO TAKE MISS LAKE HOME IN A QUARTER OF AN HOUR SO HE GLIDED BY OLD LADY CHELFORD WHO WAS DOZING STIFFLY THROUGH HER SPECTACLES ON A FRENCH NOVEL AND THROUGH A SECOND DRAWING ROOM AND INTO THE HALL WHERE HE SAW LARCOM'S EXPANSIVE WHITE WAISTCOAT AND DISREGARDED HIS ADVANCE AND RESPECTFUL INCLINATION AND STRODE INTO THE OUTER HALL OR VESTIBULE WHERE WERE HAT STANDS WALKING STICKS GREAT COATS UMBRELLAS AND THE EXUVIAE OF GENTLEMEN. MARK CLAPPED ON HIS HAT AND RIFLED THE POCKET OF HIS PALETOT OF HIS CIGAR CASE AND MATCHES AND SPLUTTERED A CURSE OR TWO ACCORDING TO OLD NOLLEKINS RECEIPT FOR EASING THE MIND AND ON THE DOOR STEPS LIGHTED HIS CHEROOT AND BECAME GRADUALLY MORE PHILOSOPHICAL. MARK'S IDEAS OF LADIES AND OF PROPRIETY WERE LOW AND HE WAS LITTLE BETTER THAN A SAILOR ASHORE AND NOT A GOOD SPECIMEN OF THAT CLASS OF MONSTER. HE WALKED ABOUT THE COURTYARD SMOKING LOOKING SOMETIMES ON THE SOLEMN FRONT OF THE OLD PALATIAL MANSION AND SOMETIMES BREATHING A WHITE FILM UP TO THE STARS IMPATIENT LIKE THE ENAMOURED ALADDIN WATCHING IN AMBUSCADE FOR THE EMERGENCE OF THE PRINCESS BADROULBADOUR. BUT HONEST MARK FORGOT THAT YOUNG LADIES DO NOT ALWAYS COME OUT QUITE ALONE AND JUMP UNASSISTED INTO THEIR VEHICLES

ONE BY ONE THEIR BRAVE HEADS WERE CUT OFF AND STUCK ON POLES ALONG THE MOAT THAT SURROUNDED THE CASTLE. STILL THE BEAUTIFUL PRINCESS LANGUISHED IN HER PRISON. WHEN THE KNIGHTS SAW THIS THEY WOULD RUSH DOWN TO THE CHASM AND SOUND A CHALLENGE TO THE OGRE. THEY WERE BRAVE MEN AND THEY WOULD NOT HAVE FEARED TO MEET THE FIERCEST WILD BEASTS BUT MANY SHRUNK BACK WHEN THE OGRE CAME RUSHING OUT. AMONG THOSE WHO DREW BACK WERE ETHELRIED'S BROTHERS THE THREE THAT WERE DARK AND THE THREE THAT WERE FAIR. THEY WOULD NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR FEAR. HE COMES AFOOT NO PRANCING STEED NO WAVING PLUMES NO TRUSTY SWORD LITTLE AND LORN HE IS NOT FIT TO BE CALLED A BROTHER TO PRINCES. BUT ETHELRIED HEEDED NOT THEIR TAUNTS. HE DASHED ACROSS THE DRAWBRIDGE AND OPENING HIS SCISSORS CRIED. GIANT SCISSORS RISE IN POWER. THEN WHACK BANG. THE BLOWS OF THE SCISSORS WARDING OFF THE BLOWS OF THE MIGHTY CLUB COULD BE HEARD FOR MILES AROUND. AS THEY SAW THAT THE POOR PRINCE WAS ABOUT TO BE VANQUISHED THEY ALL BEGAN A GREAT LAMENTATION AND CRIED OUT BITTERLY. HE SAVED MY HARVEST CRIED ONE. HE FOUND MY LAMB CRIED ANOTHER. HE SHOWED ME A GREATER KINDNESS STILL SHOUTED A THIRD. SO THEY ALL CRIED OUT LONG AND LOUD LONG LIVE THE PRINCE PRINCE CISEAUX. THEN THE KING STEPPED DOWN FROM HIS THRONE AND TOOK OFF HIS CROWN TO GIVE TO THE CONQUEROR BUT ETHELRIED PUT IT ASIDE NAY HE SAID. THE ONLY KINGDOM THAT I CRAVE IS THE KINGDOM OF A LOVING HEART AND A HAPPY FIRESIDE. KEEP ALL BUT THE PRINCESS SO THE OGRE WAS KILLED AND THE PRINCE CAME INTO HIS KINGDOM THAT WAS HIS HEART'S DESIRE

TO STAND BETWEEN TWO RELIGIONS FROM ONE OF WHICH YOU HAVE NOT AS YET EMERGED AND ANOTHER INTO WHICH YOU HAVE NOT YET ENTERED IS INTOLERABLE AND TWILIGHT IS PLEASING ONLY TO BAT LIKE SOULS. MARIUS WAS CLEAR EYED AND HE REQUIRED THE TRUE LIGHT. THE HALF LIGHTS OF DOUBT PAINED HIM. WHATEVER MAY HAVE BEEN HIS DESIRE TO REMAIN WHERE HE WAS HE COULD NOT HALT THERE HE WAS IRRESISTIBLY CONSTRAINED TO CONTINUE TO ADVANCE TO EXAMINE TO THINK TO MARCH FURTHER. WHITHER WOULD THIS LEAD HIM. HE FEARED AFTER HAVING TAKEN SO MANY STEPS WHICH HAD BROUGHT HIM NEARER TO HIS FATHER TO NOW TAKE A STEP WHICH SHOULD ESTRANGE HIM FROM THAT FATHER. HIS DISCOMFORT WAS AUGMENTED BY ALL THE REFLECTIONS WHICH OCCURRED TO HIM. AN ESCARPMENT ROSE AROUND HIM. HE WAS IN ACCORD NEITHER WITH HIS GRANDFATHER NOR WITH HIS FRIENDS DARING IN THE EYES OF THE ONE HE WAS BEHIND THE TIMES IN THE EYES OF THE OTHERS AND HE RECOGNIZED THE FACT THAT HE WAS DOUBLY ISOLATED ON THE SIDE OF AGE AND ON THE SIDE OF YOUTH. HE CEASED TO GO TO THE CAFE MUSAIN. IN THE TROUBLED STATE OF HIS CONSCIENCE HE NO LONGER THOUGHT OF CERTAIN SERIOUS SIDES OF EXISTENCE. THEY SOON ELBOWED HIM ABRUPTLY. BUT I MUST HAVE MY MONEY. REQUEST COURFEYRAC TO COME AND TALK WITH ME SAID MARIUS. COURFEYRAC HAVING MADE HIS APPEARANCE THE HOST LEFT THEM MARIUS THEN TOLD HIM WHAT IT HAD NOT BEFORE OCCURRED TO HIM TO RELATE THAT HE WAS THE SAME AS ALONE IN THE WORLD AND HAD NO RELATIVES. WHAT IS TO BECOME OF YOU SAID COURFEYRAC. I DO NOT KNOW IN THE LEAST REPLIED MARIUS. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO I DO NOT KNOW. HAVE YOU ANY MONEY FIFTEEN FRANCS. NEVER HAVE YOU CLOTHES. HERE IS WHAT I HAVE. HAVE YOU TRINKETS A WATCH. SILVER GOLD HERE IT IS. I KNOW A CLOTHES DEALER WHO WILL TAKE YOUR FROCK COAT AND A PAIR OF TROUSERS THAT IS GOOD. YOU WILL THEN HAVE ONLY A PAIR OF TROUSERS A WAISTCOAT A HAT AND A COAT AND MY BOOTS. WHAT YOU WILL NOT GO BAREFOOT WHAT OPULENCE. THAT WILL BE ENOUGH. NO IT IS NOT GOOD WHAT WILL YOU DO AFTER THAT. WHATEVER IS NECESSARY ANYTHING HONEST THAT IS TO SAY. DO YOU KNOW GERMAN NO. SO MUCH THE WORSE WHY. BECAUSE ONE OF MY FRIENDS A PUBLISHER IS GETTING UP A SORT OF AN ENCYCLOPAEDIA FOR WHICH YOU MIGHT HAVE TRANSLATED ENGLISH OR GERMAN ARTICLES. IT IS BADLY PAID WORK BUT ONE CAN LIVE BY IT. I WILL LEARN ENGLISH AND GERMAN. AND IN THE MEANWHILE. IN THE MEANWHILE I WILL LIVE ON MY CLOTHES AND MY WATCH. THE CLOTHES DEALER WAS SENT FOR. HE PAID TWENTY FRANCS FOR THE CAST OFF GARMENTS THEY WENT TO THE WATCHMAKER'S. HE BOUGHT THE WATCH FOR FORTY FIVE FRANCS. THAT IS NOT BAD SAID MARIUS TO COURFEYRAC ON THEIR RETURN TO THE HOTEL WITH MY FIFTEEN FRANCS THAT MAKES EIGHTY. AND THE HOTEL BILL OBSERVED COURFEYRAC. HELLO I HAD FORGOTTEN THAT SAID MARIUS

+MURMURED THE YOUNG MAN VAGUELY SINKING BACK IN HIS CHAIR WITH HIS ARMS FOLDED. HE LOOKED AT MISSUS LUNA WITH INTELLIGENT INCREDULITY. SHE WAS ATTRACTIVE AND IMPERTINENT ESPECIALLY THE LATTER. HE SEEMED TO THINK IT WAS A GREAT PITY WHAT SHE HAD TOLD HIM BUT HE LOST HIMSELF IN THIS CONSIDERATION OR AT ANY RATE SAID NOTHING FOR SOME TIME WHILE HIS EYES WANDERED OVER MISSUS LUNA AND HE PROBABLY WONDERED WHAT BODY OF DOCTRINE SHE REPRESENTED LITTLE AS SHE MIGHT PARTAKE OF THE NATURE OF HER SISTER. MISSUS LUNA WAS DRAWING ON HER GLOVES RANSOM HAD NEVER SEEN ANY THAT WERE SO LONG THEY REMINDED HIM OF STOCKINGS AND HE WONDERED HOW SHE MANAGED WITHOUT GARTERS ABOVE THE ELBOW. WELL I SUPPOSE I MIGHT HAVE KNOWN THAT HE CONTINUED AT LAST. WELL THAT MISS CHANCELLOR WOULD BE ALL THAT YOU SAY SHE WAS BROUGHT UP IN THE CITY OF REFORM. OH IT ISN'T THE CITY IT'S JUST OLIVE CHANCELLOR. SHE WOULD REFORM THE SOLAR SYSTEM IF SHE COULD GET HOLD OF IT. HAVE YOU BEEN IN EUROPE. RANSOM ASKED MERCY YES HAVEN'T YOU. NO I HAVEN'T BEEN ANYWHERE. SHE HATES IT SHE WOULD LIKE TO ABOLISH IT. DIDN'T YOU KNOW I HAD BEEN TO EUROPE. MISSUS LUNA WENT ON IN THE SLIGHTLY AGGRIEVED TONE OF A WOMAN WHO DISCOVERS THE LIMITS OF HER REPUTATION. THIS LAST REMARK HE MADE AT A VENTURE FOR HE HAD NATURALLY NOT DEVOTED ANY SUPPOSITION WHATEVER TO MISSUS LUNA. HIS DISHONESTY HOWEVER ONLY EXPOSED HIM THE MORE. WELL YOU SEE I DON'T GO OUT MUCH EXCEPT TO THE COURTS. ARE YOU VERY AMBITIOUS YOU LOOK AS IF YOU WERE. OLIVE AND I DISAGREE SO MUCH. WHILE YOU AND YOUR LITTLE BOY DON'T THE YOUNG MAN REMARKED. OH NO I NEVER DIFFER FROM NEWTON. AND MISSUS LUNA ADDED THAT NOW SHE WAS BACK SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHAT SHE SHOULD DO. THAT WAS THE WORST OF COMING BACK IT WAS LIKE BEING BORN AGAIN AT ONE'S AGE ONE HAD TO BEGIN LIFE AFRESH. ONE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW WHAT ONE HAD COME BACK FOR. BESIDES OLIVE DIDN'T WANT HER IN BOSTON AND DIDN'T GO THROUGH THE FORM OF SAYING SO. THAT WAS ONE COMFORT WITH OLIVE SHE NEVER WENT THROUGH ANY FORMS. BASIL RANSOM HAD GOT UP JUST AS MISSUS LUNA MADE THIS LAST DECLARATION FOR A YOUNG LADY HAD GLIDED INTO THE ROOM WHO STOPPED SHORT AS IT FELL UPON HER EARS. SHE STOOD THERE LOOKING CONSCIOUSLY AND RATHER SERIOUSLY AT MISTER RANSOM A SMILE OF EXCEEDING FAINTNESS PLAYED ABOUT HER LIPS IT WAS JUST PERCEPTIBLE ENOUGH TO LIGHT UP THE NATIVE GRAVITY OF HER FACE. IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN LIKENED TO A THIN RAY OF MOONLIGHT RESTING UPON THE WALL OF A PRISON. HER VOICE WAS LOW AND AGREEABLE A CULTIVATED VOICE AND SHE EXTENDED A SLENDER WHITE HAND TO HER VISITOR WHO REMARKED WITH SOME SOLEMNITY HE FELT A CERTAIN GUILT OF PARTICIPATION IN MISSUS LUNA'S INDISCRETION THAT HE WAS INTENSELY HAPPY TO MAKE HER ACQUAINTANCE. HE OBSERVED THAT MISS CHANCELLOR'S HAND WAS AT ONCE COLD AND LIMP SHE MERELY PLACED IT IN HIS WITHOUT EXERTING THE SMALLEST PRESSURE. TRY TO REFORM HIM A PERSON FROM MISSISSIPPI IS SURE TO BE ALL WRONG. I SHALL BE BACK VERY LATE WE ARE GOING TO A THEATRE PARTY THAT'S WHY WE DINE SO EARLY. GOOD BYE MISTER RANSOM MISSUS LUNA CONTINUED GATHERING UP THE FEATHERY WHITE SHAWL WHICH ADDED TO THE VOLUME OF HER FAIRNESS. I SHOULD LIKE YOU TO SEE NEWTON TOO HE IS A NOBLE LITTLE NATURE AND I WANT SOME ADVICE ABOUT HIM. YOU ONLY STAY TO MORROW. WELL MIND YOU COME AND SEE ME IN NEW YORK I SHALL BE SURE TO BE PART OF THE WINTER THERE. I SHALL SEND YOU A CARD I WON'T LET YOU OFF DON'T COME OUT MY SISTER HAS THE FIRST CLAIM

THE OTHER ISN'T OUR CASE. THE TWO MEN HAD SEEN EACH OTHER BEFORE BUT HAD NOT SPOKEN. GLAD TO KNOW YOU COLONEL ASHLEY SAID DONOVAN I'VE READ A LOT ABOUT YOU. YOU'RE ON THE DARCY CASE THEY TELL ME IN A WAY YES. I'M WORKING IN THE INTERESTS OF THE YOUNG MAN. BUT I HEAR YOU HAVE ANOTHER MURDER. YES BUT IT'S SO PLAIN THERE'S NO INTEREST IN IT FOR YOU.

+COLONEL ASHLEY FISHED FOR A TIME IN SILENCE BROKEN ONLY BY THE GENTLE SNORES OF SHAG FARTHER BACK IN THE FIELD AND BY THE MURMUR OF THE WATER. THE SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM NO MY FISH. CHUCKLED THE COLONEL AS HE SKILFULLY PLAYED THE LUCKLESS TROUT NOW STRUGGLING TO GET LOOSE FROM THE HOOK. AND WHEN THE FISH WAS LANDED PANTING ON THE GRASS AND SHAG HAD BEEN ROUSED FROM HIS SLUMBER TO SLIP THE NOW LIMP FISH INTO THE CREEL COLONEL ASHLEY GAVE A SIGH OF RELIEF AND REMARKED I THINK I SEE IT NOW. THE REASON SHE ASKED NO ALIMONY INQUIRED KENNETH. NO I WASN'T THINKING OF THAT. BUT I HAVE BEEN GATHERING UP SOME LOOSE ENDS AND I THINK I KNOW WHERE TO TIE THEM TOGETHER. HOWEVER DON'T THINK I'M NOT INTERESTED IN YOUR CASE I'VE FISHED ENOUGH FOR TO DAY. I AM AS SHAG CALLS IT DETECTIN AND I JUST CAME OUT HERE TO CLARIFY MY THOUGHTS. HAVING DONE THAT I'M AT YOUR SERVICE IF I CAN HELP. WELL I DON'T KNOW THAT YOU CAN. IT ISN'T GENERALLY KNOWN WENT ON THE LAWYER THAT THE HOTEL KEEPER'S WIFE HAS LEFT HIM. SHE WENT AWAY A SHORT TIME AGO AND CAME TO ME AND TOLD ME HER STORY. IT WAS ONE OF WHAT AT FIRST MIGHT BE CALLED REFINED CRUELTY ON HER HUSBAND'S PART DEGENERATING GRADUALLY INTO THAT OF THE BASER SORT. YOU DON'T MEAN THAT LARCH STRUCK HER THAT THERE WAS PHYSICAL ABUSE DO YOU ASKED THE COLONEL THAT'S WHAT HE DID. HE SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN DECENT FOR A WHILE AFTER THEIR MARRIAGE WHICH MARRIAGE WAS A MISTAKE FROM THE FIRST I CAN SEE THAT NOW. I USED TO KNOW CYNTHIA WHEN SHE WAS A GIRL SHE WAS THE DAUGHTER OF LODAN RATCHFORD AND HER MOTHER HAD PECULIAR AND TO MY MIND WRONG IDEAS OF SOCIAL POSITION AND MONEY. WELL POOR CYNTHIA IS PAYING THE PENALTY NOW. THE COLONEL DID NOT DISCLOSE THE FACT THAT IT WAS NO NEWS TO HIM. AARON GRAFTON'S STATEMENT WAS BEING UNEXPECTEDLY CONFIRMED. HE REMEMBERED THAT CYNTHIA AND GRAFTON HAD ONCE BEEN IN LOVE WITH EACH OTHER. WELL WHEN CYNTHIA CAME TO ME IN MY CAPACITY AS LAWYER AS WELL AS OLD FRIEND I COULD HARDLY BELIEVE WHAT SHE TOLD ME ABOUT HER HUSBAND WENT ON KENNETH. SHE SAID HE HAD STRUCK HER MORE THAN ONCE AND SHE COULD STAND IT NO LONGER. BECAUSE LARCH MADE NO DEFENSE. HE LET THE CASE GO BY DEFAULT FOR WHICH I WAS GLAD AS IT SAVED CYNTHIA FROM TELLING HER STORY IN OPEN COURT. LARCH BY REFUSING TO APPEAR PRACTICALLY ADMITTED THE CHARGES AGAINST HIM AND DID NOT OPPOSE THE SEPARATION. SHE HAD SOME MEANS OF HER OWN SHE DECLARED AND WOULD WORK RATHER THAN ACCEPT A CENT FROM HIM. SO I HAD TO LET HER HAVE HER WAY AND WE DID NOT ASK THE COURT FOR MONEY THOUGH I HAD NO SUCH SQUEAMISH FEELINGS WHEN IT CAME TO MY COUNSEL FEE. NO BUT HE WILL OR I'LL SUE HIM AND GET JUDGMENT OH HE'LL PAY ALL RIGHT. WELL IT'S A QUEER WORLD ANYHOW. ISN'T IT AGREED THE COLONEL. AND IT TAKES ALL SORTS OF PERSONS TO MAKE IT UP. STILL I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW. THERE WILL BE A SENSATION WHEN THIS COMES OUT. THE MURDER OF MISSUS DARCY HAD SOME TIME AGO BEEN SHIFTED OFF THE FRONT PAGE THOUGH IT WOULD GET BACK THERE WHEN THE YOUNG JEWELER WAS TRIED. BUT THE SEPARATION OF MISTER AND MISSUS LARCH WAS DIFFERENT. THE FINELY APPOINTED HOTEL KEPT BY LARCH CALLED THE HOMESTEAD FROM THE NAME OF AN OLD INN OF COLONIAL DAYS WHICH IT REPLACED WAS KNOWN FOR MILES AROUND. IT HAD A DOUBLE REPUTATION SO TO SPEAK. GRAVE AND EVEN REVEREND CONVENTIONS ASSEMBLED IN ITS BALLROOM AND POLITICIANS OF THE UPPER IF NOT BETTER CLASS WERE FREQUENTLY SEEN IN ITS DINING ROOM OR CAFE. BEING CONVENIENT TO THE COURTHOUSE NEARLY ALL THE JUDGES AND LAWYERS TOOK LUNCH THERE. LARCH HIMSELF WAS A PECULIAR CHARACTER. IN A SMALLER PLACE HE WOULD HAVE BEEN CALLED A SALOON KEEPER.

+BUT IN COLCHESTER WHICH WAS RATHER UNIQUE AMONG CITIES HE WAS LOOKED UP TO AS ONE OF THE SUBSTANTIAL CITIZENS OF THE PLACE FOR HE OWNED THE HOMESTEAD WHERE WASHINGTON WHEN IT WAS A WAYSIDE INN HAD STOPPED ONE NIGHT AT LEAST SUCH WAS THE RUMOR AND FAMILIES SOCIALLY PROMINENT SOME OF WHOSE MEMBERS HAD VERY STRONG VIEWS ON PROHIBITION DID NOT HESITATE TO ATTEND BALLS GIVEN AT THE HOTEL. AND IT WAS THIS MAN RICH IT WAS SAID HANDSOME CERTAINLY THAT CYNTHIA RATCHFORD HAD MARRIED. TO THIS WAS THE ANSWER WHISPERED MONEY. AND IN A WAY IT WAS TRUE. SHE ALSO SAW AN OPPORTUNITY OF PAYING OLD DEBTS AND REAPING SOME REVENGES. AFTER THE MARRIAGE WHICH WAS A BRILLIANT AND GAY ONE IF NOT HAPPY THE LARCH HOTEL IT COULD HARDLY BE CALLED A HOME BECAME THE SCENE OF MANY FESTIVE OCCASIONS. LANGFORD LARCH COULD NOT HIMSELF BE CALLED A DRINKING MAN. OCCASIONALLY AS ALMOST PERFORCE HE HAD TO HE DRANK A LITTLE WINE BUT HE WAS NEVER NOTICEABLY DRUNK. NOR WAS THAT SIDE OF HIS BUSINESS EVER ACCENTUATED. THE RUMORS FLOATED ABOUT A BIT SEEMED TO SINK AND THEN STARTED OFF AT FULL STEAM JUST BEFORE THE NEWS OF THE SEPARATION BECAME PUBLIC. THEN IT WAS SAID OF LARCH THAT SOON AFTER THE ECHOES OF THE WEDDING CHIMES HAD DIED AWAY HE HAD BEGUN TO TREAT HIS WIFE WITH REFINED CRUELTY THAT HIDDEN AWAY FROM THE PUBLIC UNDERNEATH HIS HABITUAL MANNER THERE WAS THE RAWNESS OF THE BRUTE. BUT IT WAS NOTICED THAT THE OLDER AND MORE CONSERVATIVE FAMILIES WERE LESS OFTEN REPRESENTED AND WHEN THEY WERE IT WAS BY SOME OF THE YOUNGER MEMBERS WHOSE REPUTATIONS WERE ALREADY SMIRCHED OR WHO HAD NOT YET ACQUIRED ANY AND WERE WILLING TO TAKE A CHANCE. MISSUS LARCH RESUMING HER MAIDEN NAME IT WAS ANNOUNCED HAD GONE TO A QUIET PLACE TO REST. IT WAS ALL DUE TO A MISUNDERSTANDING HE SAID. FOR THE PAPERS OF HER TESTIMONY HAD BEEN SEALED AND IT WAS ONLY BY A SHARP TRICK ON THE PART OF DALEY THAT HE GOT ACCESS TO THEM. IT WOULDN'T DO YOU KNOW AFTER THAT STORY CAME OUT FOR ME AND THE VICE CHANCELLOR WHO SAT IN THE CASE AS WELL AS OTHER JUDGES AND MEMBERS OF THE BAR TO BE SEEN THERE KENNETH EXPLAINED TO THE COLONEL. SLOWLY AND GRADUALLY BUT NONE THE LESS SURELY A CHANGE CAME OVER THE HOMESTEAD. AND IT WAS WHISPERED ABOUT LARCH IS LUSHING. MEANWHILE COLONEL ASHLEY WAS A VERY BUSY MAN AND TO NO ONE DID HE TELL VERY MUCH ABOUT HIS ACTIVITIES HE SAW DARCY FREQUENTLY AT THE JAIL AND TO THAT YOUNG MAN'S PLEADINGS THAT SOMETHING BE DONE ALWAYS RETURNED THE ANSWER. DON'T WORRY IT WILL COME OUT ALL RIGHT. BUT AMY AND THE DISGRACE. SHE DOESN'T CONSIDER HERSELF DISGRACED AND YOU SHOULDN'T. THE BEST OF POLICE HEADQUARTERS OR PROSECUTOR'S DETECTIVES MAKE MISTAKES. I'M GOING TO RECTIFY THEM BUT IT WILL TAKE TIME. DO YOU KNOW WHO KILLED MY COUSIN I THINK I DO. THEN FOR THE LOVE OF I CAN'T TELL YOU YET DARCY ALL IN GOOD TIME. IT'S HARD FOR MISS MASON TOO ALTHOUGH SHE'S BEARING UP LIKE A MAJOR. GAD SIR THAT'S WHAT SHE'S DOING. YOU'VE GOT A FRIEND IN HER OF WHOM YOU MAY BE PROUD. AND HER FATHER TOO HE'S WITH YOU FROM THE DROP OF THE FLAG HE TOLD ME. DARCY YOU'VE GOT GOOD FRIENDS. BESIDES ANYTHING I COULD SAY NOW WOULDN'T SET YOU FREE. YOU CAN'T GET OUT BEFORE A TRIAL OR BEFORE I CAN PRODUCE SOME ONE ON WHOM I CAN ACTUALLY FASTEN THE MURDER AND I CAN'T DO THAT YET. YOU AREN'T THE ONLY SUSPECT THOUGH. THERE'S HARRY KING STILL LOCKED UP. CRIED THE OLD DETECTIVE AND THERE WAS SURPRISE IN HIS VOICE NO. HE WAS BAILED OUT TO DAY I THOUGHT YOU KNEW IT. I DIDN'T I'M GLAD YOU TOLD ME THOUGH. SO KING GOT BAIL WHO PUT IT UP. IT WAS HIGH LARCH. THE HOTEL KEEPER SO I UNDERSTAND. THEY TOOK HARRY AWAY A WHILE AGO. I WISH I HAD BEEN IN HIS SHOES I'M GLAD YOU'RE NOT. BUT HIS ARE PRETTY UNCERTAIN SHOES TO BE IN JUST THE SAME. ONLY THAT I DARCY HESITATED AND GREW RED

+OLD MISTER DINSMORE HAD ACCEPTED A PRESSING INVITATION FROM HIS GRANDDAUGHTER AND HER HUSBAND TO JOIN THE PARTY AND WITH THE ADDITION OF SERVANTS IT WAS A LARGE ONE. AS THEY WERE IN NO HASTE AND THE CONFINEMENT OF A RAILROAD CAR WOULD BE VERY IRKSOME TO THE YOUNGER CHILDREN IT HAD BEEN DECIDED TO MAKE THE JOURNEY BY WATER. THERE WERE NO SAD LEAVE TAKINGS TO MAR THEIR PLEASURE THE CHILDREN WERE IN WILD SPIRITS AND ALL SEEMED CHEERFUL AND HAPPY AS THEY SAT OR STOOD UPON THE DECK WATCHING THE RECEDING SHORE AS THE VESSEL STEAMED OUT OF THE HARBOR. AT LENGTH THE LAND HAD QUITE DISAPPEARED NOTHING COULD BE SEEN BUT THE SKY OVERHEAD AND A VAST EXPANSE OF WATER ALL AROUND AND THE PASSENGERS FOUND LEISURE TO TURN THEIR ATTENTION UPON EACH OTHER. THERE ARE SOME NICE LOOKING PEOPLE ON BOARD REMARKED MISTER TRAVILLA IN AN UNDERTONE TO HIS WIFE. BESIDE OURSELVES ADDED COUSIN RONALD LAUGHING. YES SHE ANSWERED THAT LITTLE GROUP YONDER A YOUNG MINISTER AND HIS WIFE AND CHILD I SUPPOSE. AND WHAT A DEAR LITTLE FELLOW HE IS JUST ABOUT THE AGE OF OUR HAROLD I SHOULD JUDGE. DO YOU SON WAS THE SMILING REJOINDER. HE CERTAINLY LOOKS LIKE A VERY NICE LITTLE BOY. SUPPOSE YOU AND HE SHAKE HANDS FRANK. I DO INDEED THOUGH PROBABLY COMPARATIVELY FEW ARE AWARE THAT TOBACCO IS THE CAUSE OF THEIR AILMENTS. DOUBTLESS THAT IS THE CASE REMARKED MISTER DINSMORE. WITH ALL MY HEART IF YOU WILL STEP INTO THE GENTLEMEN'S CABIN WHERE THERE'S A LIGHT. HE LED THE WAY THE OTHERS ALL FOLLOWING AND TAKING OUT A SLIP OF PAPER READ FROM IT IN A DISTINCT TONE LOUD ENOUGH TO BE HEARD BY THOSE ABOUT HIM WITHOUT DISTURBING THE OTHER PASSENGERS. ONE DROP OF NICOTINE EXTRACT OF TOBACCO PLACED ON THE TONGUE OF A DOG WILL KILL HIM IN A MINUTE THE HUNDREDTH PART OF A GRAIN PICKED UNDER THE SKIN OF A MAN'S ARM WILL PRODUCE NAUSEA AND FAINTING. THE HALF DOZEN CIGARS WHICH MOST SMOKERS USE A DAY CONTAIN SIX OR SEVEN GRAINS ENOUGH IF CONCENTRATED AND ABSORBED TO KILL THREE MEN AND A POUND OF TOBACCO ACCORDING TO ITS QUALITY CONTAINS FROM ONE QUARTER TO ONE AND A QUARTER OUNCES. IS IT STRANGE THEN THAT SMOKERS AND CHEWERS HAVE A THOUSAND AILMENTS. THAT THE FRENCH POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE HAD TO PROHIBIT ITS USE ON ACCOUNT OF ITS EFFECTS ON THE MIND. NOTICE THE MULTITUDE OF SUDDEN DEATHS AND SEE HOW MANY ARE SMOKERS AND CHEWERS. IN A SMALL COUNTRY TOWN SEVEN OF THESE MYSTERIOUS PROVIDENCES OCCURRED WITHIN THE CIRCUIT OF A MILE ALL DIRECTLY TRACEABLE TO TOBACCO AND ANY PHYSICIAN ON A FEW MOMENTS REFLECTION CAN MATCH THIS FACT BY HIS OWN OBSERVATION. AND THEN SUCH POWERFUL ACIDS PRODUCE INTENSE IRRITATION AND THIRST THIRST WHICH WATER DOES NOT QUENCH. HENCE A RESORT TO CIDER AND BEER. NO SIR WHAT KNOW YE NOT THAT YOUR BODY IS THE TEMPLE OF THE HOLY GHOST WHICH IS IN YOU WHICH YE HAVE OF GOD AND YE ARE NOT YOUR OWN. FOR YE ARE BOUGHT WITH A PRICE THEREFORE GLORIFY GOD IN YOUR BODY AND IN YOUR SPIRIT WHICH ARE GOD'S. WE CERTAINLY HAVE NO RIGHT TO INJURE OUR BODIES EITHER BY NEGLECT OR SELF INDULGENCE. AND AGAIN I BESEECH YOU THEREFORE BRETHREN BY THE MERCIES OF GOD THAT YE PRESENT YOUR BODIES A LIVING SACRIFICE HOLY ACCEPTABLE UNTO GOD WHICH IS YOUR REASONABLE SERVICE. IT MUST REQUIRE A GOOD DEAL OF RESOLUTION FOR ONE WHO HAS BECOME FOND OF THE INDULGENCE TO GIVE IT UP REMARKED MISTER DALY. NO DOUBT NO DOUBT RETURNED MISTER LILBURN BUT IF THY RIGHT EYE OFFEND THEE PLUCK IT OUT AND CAST IT FROM THEE FOR IT IS PROFITABLE FOR THEE THAT ONE OF THY MEMBERS SHOULD PERISH AND NOT THAT THY WHOLE BODY SHOULD BE CAST INTO HELL. THERE WAS A PAUSE BROKEN BY YOUNG HORACE WHO HAD BEEN WATCHING A GROUP OF MEN GATHERED ABOUT A TABLE AT THE FURTHER END OF THE ROOM. THEY ARE GAMBLING YONDER AND I'M AFRAID THAT YOUNG FELLOW IS BEING BADLY FLEECED BY THAT MIDDLE AGED MAN OPPOSITE

+THE EYES OF THE WHOLE PARTY WERE AT ONCE TURNED IN THAT DIRECTION. NO SIR HE IS NOT HERE. AND THE DOOR WAS SLAMMED VIOLENTLY TO. NOW THE VOICE CAME FROM THE SKYLIGHT OVERHEAD APPARENTLY AND WITH A FIERCE IMPRECATION THE IRATE GAMESTER RUSHED UPON DECK AND RAN HITHER AND THITHER IN SEARCH OF HIS TORMENTOR. HIS VICTIM WHO HAD BEEN LOOKING ON DURING THE LITTLE SCENE AND LISTENING TO THE MYSTERIOUS VOICE IN SILENT WIDE EYED WONDER AND FEAR NOW ROSE HASTILY HIS FACE DEATHLY PALE WITH TREMBLING HANDS GATHERED UP THE MONEY HE HAD STAKED AND HURRYING INTO HIS STATE ROOM LOCKED HIMSELF IN. WHAT DOES IT MEAN CRIED ONE. A VENTRILOQUIST ABOARD OF COURSE RETURNED ANOTHER LET'S FOLLOW AND SEE THE FUN. I WONDER WHICH OF US IT IS REMARKED THE FIRST LOOKING HARD AT OUR PARTY I DON'T KNOW BUT COME ON. THAT FELLOW NICK WARD IS A NOTED BLACKLEG AND RUFFIAN HAD HIS NOSE BROKEN IN A FIGHT AND IS SENSITIVE ON THE SUBJECT WAS CHEATING OF COURSE. WHO ASKED THE MATE I'VE SEEN NONE UP HERE THOUGH THERE ARE SOME IN THE STEERAGE. THEY HEARD HIM IN SILENCE WITH A COOL PHLEGMATIC INDIFFERENCE MOST EXASPERATING TO ONE IN HIS PRESENT MOOD. A MAN OF GIANT SIZE AND HERCULEAN STRENGTH HAD LAID ASIDE HIS PIPE AND SLOWLY RISING TO HIS FEET SEIZED THE SCOUNDREL IN HIS POWERFUL GRASP. LET ME GO YELLED WARD MAKING A DESPERATE EFFORT TO FREE HIS ARMS. I DINKS NO I DINKS I DEACH YOU VON LESSON RETURNED HIS CAPTOR NOT RELAXING HIS GRASP IN THE LEAST. THE GERMAN RELEASED HIS PRISONER AND THE LATTER SLUNK AWAY WITH MUTTERED THREATS AND IMPRECATIONS UPON THE HEAD OF HIS TORMENTOR. MISTER LILBURN AND MISTER DALY EACH AT A DIFFERENT TIME SOUGHT OUT THE YOUNG MAN WARD'S INTENDED VICTIM AND TRIED TO INFLUENCE HIM FOR GOOD. YET THERE WAS GAMBLING AGAIN THE SECOND NIGHT BETWEEN WARD AND SEVERAL OTHERS OF HIS PROFESSION. THEY KEPT IT UP TILL AFTER MIDNIGHT. THEN MISTER LILBURN WAKING FROM HIS FIRST SLEEP IN A STATEROOM NEAR BY THOUGHT HE WOULD BREAK IT UP ONCE MORE. AN INTENSE VOICELESS EXCITEMENT POSSESSED THE PLAYERS FOR THE GAME WAS A CLOSE ONE AND THE STAKES WERE VERY HEAVY. THEY BENT EAGERLY OVER THE BOARD EACH WATCHING WITH FEVERISH ANXIETY HIS COMPANION'S MOVEMENTS EACH CASTING NOW AND AGAIN A GLOATING EYE UPON THE HEAP OF GOLD AND GREENBACKS THAT LAY BETWEEN THEM AND AT TIMES HALF STRETCHING OUT HIS HAND TO CLUTCH IT. A DEEP GROAN STARTLED THEM AND THEY SPRANG TO THEIR FEET PALE AND TREMBLING WITH SUDDEN TERROR EACH HOLDING HIS BREATH AND STRAINING HIS EAR TO CATCH A REPETITION OF THE DREAD SOUND. BUT ALL WAS SILENT AND AFTER A MOMENT OF ANXIOUS WAITING THEY SAT DOWN TO THEIR GAME AGAIN TRYING TO CONCEAL AND SHAKE OFF THEIR FEARS WITH A FORCED UNNATURAL LAUGH. IT CAME FROM UNDER THE TABLE GASPED WARD LOOK WHAT'S THERE LOOK YOURSELF. WHAT CAN IT HAVE BEEN THEY ASKED EACH OTHER. OH NONSENSE WHAT FOOLS WE ARE. IT WAS THE LAST GAME OF CARDS FOR THAT TRIP. THE CAPTAIN COMING IN SHORTLY AFTER THE SUDDEN FLIGHT OF THE GAMBLERS TOOK CHARGE OF THE MONEY AND THE NEXT DAY RESTORED IT TO THE OWNERS. TO ELSIE'S OBSERVANT EYES IT PRESENTLY BECAME EVIDENT THAT THE DALYS WERE IN VERY STRAITENED CIRCUMSTANCES. OH HOW KIND HOW VERY KIND MISSUS DALY SAID WITH TEARS OF JOY AND GRATITUDE WE HAVE HARDLY KNOWN HOW WE SHOULD MEET THE MOST NECESSARY EXPENSES OF THIS TRIP BUT HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CAST OUR CARE UPON THE LORD ASKING HIM TO PROVIDE. AND HOW WONDERFULLY HE HAS ANSWERED OUR PETITIONS. ELSIE ANSWERED PRESSING HER HAND AFFECTIONATELY ART WE NOT SISTERS IN CHRIST. YE ARE ALL THE CHILDREN OF GOD BY FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS. YE ARE ALL ONE IN CHRIST JESUS

+The man from the west stopped and drew back his arm. "You're not Jimmy Wells," he said in a quick and angry way, "Twenty years is a long time, but not long enough to change a man' nose from a Roman to pug." "It sometimes changes a good man into a bad one," said the tall man, "you've been under arrest for ten minutes. Silky Bob. prefix = st1 /Chicagothinks you may have dropped over our way and phones us she wants to have a word with you. Going quietly, are you? That's sensible. Now before we go to the station here's a note I was asked to hand you. You may read it here at the window. It's from Patrolman Wells.?" The man from the West opened the little piece of paper handed him. His hand was steady when he began to read, but it trembled a little by the time he finished. The note was rather short. Bob: I was at the right place on time. When you struck the match to light your cigar I saw it was the face wanted in Chicago. Somehow I couldn't do it myself, so I went around and got a plain clothes man   to do the job.

+Facebook users may feel socially successful in the web world but they are more likely to perform poorly in exams. The majority of students who use Facebook every day are doing badly compared with those who don't. About 83% of British 16 to 24-year-old people are using social networking site such as Facebook and MySpace, to keep in touch with friends and organize their social activities.
+"Our study shows people who spend more time on Facebook spend less time studying," said Aryn Karpinski, a researcher. "Every generation has its distractions , but I think Facebook is a unique phenomenon." Karpinski and a colleague questioned 219 US undergraduates and graduates about their study and general Internet use, as well as their specific use of Facebook. They found 65% of Facebook users accessed their account daily, checking it several times to see if they had received new messages. The amount of time spent on Facebook at each log-in  varied from just a few minutes to more than an hour.
+Some UK students have already realized the potential danger. Daisy Jones, 21, an undergraduate, realized the time she was spending on Facebook was threatening her grades, urging her to deactivate  her account, "I was in the library and tried to write a 2,000-word essay when I realized my Facebook habit had got out of hand," she said. "I couldn't resist going online, when thinking about it. Before you know it , a couple of minutes have turned into a couple of hours and you haven't written a word."
+Jones is among the few to have realized the risks. 79% of the users, however, believed the time they spent on the site had no impact on their work. The CEO of Facebook said, "There is also academic research that shows the benefits of services like Facebook. It's in the hands of students to decide how to spend their time."

+The Biggest and the Gentle
+The elephant is the biggest four-legged animal in the world.It is also the gentlest,but not always!
+Elephants are like us in some ways.They live for a long time--fifty or sixty years.They can remember things very well.They never forget great sadness or great happiness.When female elephant dies,her daughters and her granddaughters are sad for many months.They stay with the dead body.Then they carry a bit of it away with them.They never forget a dear friend.
+Elephants are like us,but they are also different.They live in families of females.There will be a few young males a few"baby boys".But the females will soon send them away.And elephant family keeps only its daughters,mothers and grandmothers.And its great-grandmothers.
+The females stay together for fifty,sixty...a hundred years.The older animals look after the younger ones.The mothers teach their daughters and set a good example.
+And what happens to male elephants?Well,the young males stay with their family.Then the females just send them away.A bull elephant does not often have a friend.He lives apart,away from the family,and often away from other bulls.
+Sometimes the females call a bull.He can visit them then,and stay for some time.But soon his"wives"and sisters send him away again.The females have a very happy family life.What do the bulls think about it?We don't know.

+"Mama, when I grow up, I'm going to be one of those!" I said this after seeing the Capital Dancing Company perform when I was three. It was the first time that my dream took on a vivid form and acted as something important to start my training. As I grew older and was exposed to more, my interests in the world of dance certainly varied but that little girl's dream of someday becoming a dancer in the company never left me. In the summer of 2005 when I was 18, I received the phone call which made that dream a reality: I became a member of the company dating back to 1925.
+As I look back on that day now, it surely lacks any sense of reality. I believe I stayed in a state of pleasant disbelief until I was halfway through rehearsals   on my first day. I never actually expect to get the job. After being offered the position, I was completely astonished. I remember shaking with excitement.
+ _ . Through the strict rehearsal period of dancing six days a week, I found it vital to pick up the material fast with every last bit of concentration. It is that extreme attention to detail   and stress on practice that set us apart. To then follow those high-energy rehearsals with a busy show schedule of up to five performances a day, I discovered a new meaning of the words "hard work." What I thought were my physical boundaries were pushed much further than I thought possible. I learned to make each performance better than the last.
+Today, when I look at the unbelievable company that I have the great honor of being a part of, not only as a member, but as a dance captain, I see a tradition that has inspired not only generations of little girls but a splendid company that continues to develop and grow-and inspires people every day to follow their dreams.

+In the US and Britain, the slogan around colleges was "Save water. Shower with a friend." Now, Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse. It charges students for the amount of time in a shower. Before entering the bathhouse, students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card. The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on. It pauses when a button is pressed for soap. An integrated circuit (IC) card reader at each tap shows the time. No money, no water. The benefits of the new system can be seen with the old system, which charged 1 Yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower. The university used about 320 tons of water daily under the old system, but only 160 tons now.
+Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided. Some students say it is bad because bathing had become a sort of race. Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower. Some might be embarrassed if their time is up and they're still covered in soap. They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time.
+"It's a _ in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card," said Ren, a freshman in Wuhan University. The university is also considering some students' suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they've finished the shower. Not surprisingly, some are complaining about losing the hour shower. But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.
+Without the time limits, most students tended to shower for 30 to an hour in the bathhouse.
+Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes. "In my experience, 10--20 minutes is enough," said Dai Zhihua, a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes.
+A similar system has been installed in other universities. Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September. The bathing fee there is 0.2 Yuan per minute. One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.

+The latest fashion in kitchen is the food steamer. All the stores are selling them; everyone wants one. Steaming is one of the simplest and healthiest ways of cooking food.However, that cooking time is usually longer than with other methods. In case you're thinking of buying a steamer, I've done a survey about the steamers available on the market to help you decide which will suit you best.
+*Folding Steamer
+The simplest and least expensive is the folding stainless-steel  version.
+Advantages: This is a good, basic design which sits inside a variety of different shapes of pans with the water under it; a ring in the center allows for easy lifting and it's easy to clean.
+Disadvantages: It only holds small dishes. Also, if you put too much water in the pan, it will boil up through the vegetables and they will be watery. If you put too little water in and let it get dry, you will burn the pan and get strange-smelling vegetables.
+*Steaming Pan
+This is a three-layered black Teflon-coated version with a lid and two double-handled steamers, which sits on the oven ring. The brand I bought is called Nutritious Living.
+Advantages: This is an excellent steamer, lightweight, easy to clean, and of all the steamers I've tried, this cooks the fastest. Fish and chicken can be cooked on the bottom with rice or vegetables on the top. It's easier to store.
+Disadvantages: Water can boil away until the pan is dry, but if you make sure you fill the pan up to the suggested level and do not overcook the food, this should not happen.You cannot see the food cooking from the top. It doesn't supply a dish for cooking rice.
+For serious users of steamers, I recommend having one of each version. If you just want to try it, get the folding stainless-steel type.

+Money spent on advertising is money spent as well as any I know of.It serves directly to assist a rapid distribution of goods at reasonable prices, thereby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices.By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise standards of living.By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need for labour, and is therefore an effective way to fight unemployment.It lowers the costs of many services: without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much, the price of your television license would need to be doubled, and travel by bus or tube would cost 20 per cent more.
+And perhaps most important of all, advertising provides a guarantee of  reasonable value in the products and services you buy.Apart from the fact that twenty-seven acts of Parliament govern the terms of advertising, no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements.He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising.He will not do so for long, for mercifully the public has the good sense not to buy the low-quality article more than once.If you see an article consistently advertised, it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it, and that it represents good value.
+What' s more, advertising does more for the material benefit of the community than any other force I can think of.
+There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on.Recently I heard a well-known television personality declare that he was against advertising because it persuades rather than informs.He was drawing excessively fine distinctions course advertising seeks to persuade.
+If its message were restricted merely to information, which would be difficult to achieve, for even a detail such as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtly persuasive, advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention.But perhaps that is what the well-known television personality wants.

+Do you scream on a roller coaster ride? You slowly climb up a steep slope until an almost vertical  drop, and then... Ahhhhhhhh! Thrill-seekers like me are in luck because theme parks are pushing the boundaries of technology to create the fastest, tallest, scariest roller coasters the world has ever known.
+Alton Towers in Britain opened the world's first 14-1oop roller coaster a few months ago, called The Smiler. Over in Abu Dhabi, Ferrari World claims to have the world's fastest one. Ferrari World's Formula Rossa ride sends out passengers from 0-240km/h in just 4. 9 seconds. During this rapid acceleration they experience G-forces only fighter pilots usually  feel: Up to 4. 8G. The designer of several rides at Alton Towers, said: "While we can stand 6-8Gs for very short periods of  time, ff we experience 5G for more than five seconds we're likely to "black out."
+On modern roller coasters passengers experience about 3G in tight turns and loops. But while we may have reached the limit in terms of G-forces, there is no technological limit to how fast or how high roller coasters can go---it's all down to money. Alton Towers' The Smiler cost ~18m to build.
+Some companies are finding other ways to keep us amused. There's a move towards indoor rides where the experience is improved by audio-visual technologies. For example, a company called Dynamic Structures is currently developing a "coal-mine-themed" ride for a client in Dubai that will combine speed and G-forces with 3D projection effects and robotics, which will trick your brain into thinking you're really falling.
+I can't wait to enjoy this one. What about you: Do you like being upside down?

+Most people know that awkward feeling when you step into an elevator with other people and try not to make eye contact.
+But new research suggests it may be down to a subconscious power struggle being played out as you make your way up or down.
+A study found that people decide where they stand based on a micro social grading, established within seconds of entering the lift.
+Rebekah Rousi, a Ph.D. student in cognitive science, conducted an study of elevator behaviour in two of the tallest office buildings in Adelaide, Australia.
+As part of her research, she took a total of 30 lift rides in the two buildings, and discovered there was an established order to where people tended stand.
+In a blog, she writes that more senior men seemed to direct themselves towards the back of the elevator cabins.
+She said: 'In front of them were younger men, and in front of them were women of all ages.'
+She also noticed there was a difference in where people directed their stare half way through the ride.
+Men watched the monitors , looked in the side mirrors (in one building) to see themselves, and in the door mirrors (of the other building) to also watch others.
+'Women would watch the monitors and avoid eye contact with other users (unless in conversation) and the mirrors,' she writes.
+The student concluded it could be that people who are shyer stand toward the front, where they can't see other passengers, whereas brave people stand in the back, where they have a view of everyone else.

+The modern Olympic Games, founded in 1896, began as contests between individuals, rather than among nations, with the hope of promoting world peace through sportsmanship. In the beginning, the games were open only to amateurs. An amateur is a person whose involvement in an activity---from sports to science or the arts---is purely for pleasure. Amateurs, whatever their contributions to a field, expect to receive no form of compensation ; professionals, in contrast, perform their work in order to earn a living.
+From the perspective of many athletes, however, the Olympic playing field has been far from level. Restricting the Olympics to amateurs has precluded  the participation of many who could not afford to be unpaid. Countries have always desired to send their best athletes, not their wealthiest ones, to the Olympic Games.
+A slender and imprecise line separates what we call "financial support" from "earning money." Do athletes "earn money" if they are reimbursed  for travel expenses? What if they are paid for time lost at work or if they accept free clothing from a manufacturer or if they teach sports for a living? The runner Eric Liddell was the son of poor missionaries; in 1924 the British Olympic Committee financed his trip to the Olympics, where he won a gold and a bronze medal. College scholarships and support from the United States Olympic Committee made it possible for American track stars Jesse Owens and Wilma Rudolph and speed skater Dan Jansen to train and compete. When the Soviet Union and its allies joined the games in 1952, the definition of amateur became still muddier. Their athletes did not have to balance jobs and training because as citizens in communist regimes, their government financial support was not considered payment for jobs.
+In 1971 the International Olympic Committee(IOC) removed the word amateur from the rules, making it easier for athletes to find the support necessary to train and compete. In 1986 the IOC allowed professional athletes into the games.
+There are those who regret the disappearance of amateurism from the Olympic Games. For them the games lost something special when they became just another way for athletes to earn money. Others say that the designation of amateurism was always questionable; they argue that all competitors receive so much financial support as to make them paid professionals. Most agree, however, that the debate over what constitutes an "amateur" will continue for a long time.

+If women are mercilessly exploited year after year, they have only themselves to blame.  Because they tremble at the thought of being seen in public in clothes that are out of fashion, they are always taken advantage of by the designers and the big stores. Clothes which have been worn only a few times have to be put aside because of the change of fashion. When you come to think of it, only a woman is capable of standing in front of a wardrobe packed full of clothes and announcing sadly that she has nothing to wear.
+Changing fashions are nothing more than the intentional creation of waste. Many women spend vast sums of money each year to replace clothes that have hardly been worn. Women who cannot afford to throw away clothing in this way, waste hours of their time altering the dresses they have. Skirts are lengthened or shortened; neck-lines are lowered or raised, and soon.
+No one can claim that the fashion industry contributes anything really important to society. Fashion designers are rarely concerned with vital things like warmth, comfort and durability. They are only interested in outward appearance and they take advantage of the fact that women will put up with any amount of discomfort, as long as they look right. There can hardly be a man who hasn't at some time in his life smiled at the sight of a woman shaking in a thin dress on a winter day, or delicately picking her way through deep snow in high-heeled shoes.
+When comparing men and women in the matter of fashion, _ . Does the constantly changing fashion of women's clothes, one wonders, reflect basic qualities of instability? Men are too clever to let themselves be cheated by fashion designers. Do their unchanged styles of dress reflect basic qualities of stability and reliability? That is for you to decide.

+When we see well, we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.
+People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes. Everything else seems blurry (unclear). Many people who do a lot of work, such as writing, reading and sewing become near--sighted.
+People who are far-sighted _ from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away, but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm's length. If they want to do much reading, they must get glasses, too.
+Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism  . This, too, can be corrected by glasses. Some people's eyes become cloudy because of cataracts  . Long ago these people often became blind. Now, however, it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
+Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself, look at an object out of one eye; then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object's relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

+Choose the best answer.  Choose the best answer(,, A, B, CD):
+Can kids make their own newspapers? They do in Paris. Student editors  at a French newspaper for kids called "Mon Quotidien", do every day.
+The 10-year-old newspaper has its headquarters   in Paris. Sometimes the newspaper sells 200,000 copies every day. It gets more than one million dollars every year! This is much more than other newspapers.
+How do they decide what to put in the paper? All the adult editors working on the children's daily agree that the paper should be easy and simple to read. Kids should be able to finish it within 10 minutes.
+The paper covers school life, animals, and science, which are usually kid's favourite subjects. It also talks about big world problem, like the Iraq   war.
+In order to make the paper more popular with kids, adult editors invite students from age 10 to 15 to take part in their meetings. They have meetings every Wednesday and Sunday. Adult editors, reporters and kids sit together and decide which topics should come out in the paper and on which page.
+Which topic should come out on the front page, European Union   or bears in the zoo? Often the kid editors and adult writers disagree. Sometimes, the adult editors have to give up because their little editors won't give in.
+Usually the student editors stay in the newspaper office for three hours at each meeting. Any kid in France can call the newspaper if they are interested in being a one-day editor.

+It was a warm April day when a big fat envelope came in the mail from the only college I had ever imagined attending. I tore open the packet. My eyes were fixed on the word "congratulations. "I don't remember ever smiling so wide.
+Then I looked at my financial package.
+The cost of Dream School's tuition , room and board was around $ 40,000- an impossible sum! How could I afford to attend? What good reasons did I have to go there when three other fine colleges were offering me free tuition? My other choices were good, solid schools even if they weren't as famous as my first choice.
+In my mind, attending my dream university would be the only way to realize my dream of becoming a world-class writer. My parents understood how I felt. They told me that even though it would be a financial problem, I could go wherever I would be happiest. But as I was always careful with money, I wasn't sure what to do.
+One of the schools that _ had an informational dinner one night in the spring. Considering my parents' financial difficulties, I decided to drive the 45 minutes and attend. At first, all I had planned to do was smile politely, eat free food, listen quietly. But I surprised myself.
+At dinner the president of the university talked about the wonderful activities on campus  including guest lectures and social gatherings. He also made it perfectly clear that free food would be offered at all future events. He continued with explanations of professors, class sizes, activities, and sporting events on campus. As he spoke, I began to realize that this school, though not as good as my first choice, might be the best one for me. It seemed small yet with many great programs. It seemed challenging yet caring.
+As the president ended his speech, we clapped politely and pushed back our chairs. As I walked out that door, a feeling of comfort washed over me. Looking at the campus that night, I realized that I would be spending the next four years right there.
+In all honesty, my university is not as well-known as my "dream"university. However, it turned out to be the right choice of schools for me.
