Michael

They were not slow to take my hint; and indeed, as to the mere time of day, it was best for us to be off, as it was past seven o��clock, and the day promised to be very hot. So we got up and went down to our boat �� Ellen thoughtful and abstracted; the old man very kind and courteous, as if to make up for his crabbedness of opinion. Clara was cheerful and natural, but a little subdued, I thought; and she at least was not sorry to be gone, and often looked shyly and timidly at Ellen and her strange wild beauty. So we got into the boat, Dick saying as he took his place, ��Well, it IS a fine day!�� and the old man answering ��What! you like that, do you?�� once more; and presently Dick was sending the bows swiftly through the slow weed-checked stream. I turned round as we got into mid-stream, and waving my hand to our hosts, saw Ellen leaning on the old man��s shoulder, and caressing his healthy apple-red cheek, and quite a keen pang smote me as I thought how I should never see the beautiful girl again. Presently I insisted on taking the sculls, and I rowed a good deal that day; which no doubt accounts for the fact that we got very late to the place which Dick had aimed at. Clara was particularly affectionate to Dick, as I noticed from the rowing thwart; but as for him, he was as frankly kind and merry as ever; and I was glad to see it, as a man of his temperament could not have taken her caresses cheerfully and without embarrassment if he had been at all entangled by the fairy of our last night��s abode. I need say little about the lovely reaches of the river here. I duly noted that absence of cockney villas which the old man had lamented; and I saw with pleasure that my old enemies the ��Gothic�� cast-iron bridges had been replaced by handsome oak and stone ones. Also the banks of the forest that we passed through had lost their courtly game-keeperish trimness, and were as wild and beautiful as need he, though the trees were clearly well seen to. I thought it best, in order to get the most direct information, to play the innocent about Eton and Windsor; but Dick volunteered his knowledge to me as we lay in Datchet lock about the first. Quoth he: ��Up yonder are some beautiful old buildings, which were built for a great college or teaching-place by one of the mediaeval kings �� Edward the Sixth, I think�� (I smiled to myself at his rather natural blunder). ��He meant poor people��s sons to be taught there what knowledge was going in his days; but it was a matter of course that in the times of which you seem to know so much they spoilt whatever good there was in the founder��s intentions. My old kinsman says that they treated them in a very simple way, and instead of teaching poor men��s sons to know something, they taught rich men��s sons to know nothing. It seems from what he says that it was a place for the ��aristocracy�� (if you know what that word means; I have been told its meaning) to get rid of the company of their male children for a great part of the year. I daresay old Hammond would give you plenty of information in detail about it.�� What is it used for now?�� said I. ��Well,�� said he, ��the buildings were a good deal spoilt by the last few generations of aristocrats, who seem to have had a great hatred against beautiful old buildings, and indeed all records of past history; but it is still a delightful place. Of course, we cannot use it quite as the founder intended, since our ideas about teaching young people are so changed from the ideas of his time; so it is used now as a dwelling for people engaged in learning; and folk from round about come and get taught things that they want to learn; and there is a great library there of the best books. So that I don��t think that the old dead king would be much hurt if he were to come to life and see what we are doing there.�� Well,�� said Clara, laughing, ��I think he would miss the boys.�� Not always, my dear,�� said Dick, ��for there are often plenty of boys there, who come to get taught; and also,�� said he, smiling, ��to learn boating and

2014 michael kors watches

swimming. I wish we could stop there: but perhaps we had better do that coming down the water.�� The lock-gates opened as he spoke, and out we went, and on. And as for Windsor, he said nothing till I lay on my oars (for I was sculling then) in Clewer reach, and looking up, said, ��What is all that building up there?�� Said he: ��There, I thought I would wait till you asked, yourself. That is Windsor Castle: that also I thought I would keep for you till we come down the water. It looks fine from here, doesn��t it? But a great deal of it has been built or skinned in the time of the Degradation, and we wouldn��t pull the buildings down, since they were there; just as with the buildings of the Dung-Market. You know, of course, that it was the palace of our old mediaeval kings, and was used later on for the same purpose by the parliamentary commercial sham-kings, as my old kinsman calls them.�� Yes,�� said I, ��I know all that. What is it used for now?�� A great many people live there,�� said he, ��as, with all drawbacks, it is a pleasant place; there is also a well-arranged store of antiquities of various kinds that have seemed worth keeping �� a museum, it would have been called in the times you understand so well.�� I drew my sculls through the water at that last word, and pulled as if I were fleeing from those times which I understood so well; and we were soon going up the once sorely be-cockneyed reaches of the river about Maidenhead, which now looked as pleasant and enjoyable as the up-river reaches. The morning was now getting on, the morning of a jewel of a summer day; one of those days which, if they were commoner in these islands, would make our climate the best of all climates, without dispute. A light wind blew from the west; the little clouds that had arisen at about our breakfast time had seemed to get higher and higher in the heavens; and in spite of the burning sun we no more longed for rain than we feared it. Burning as the sun was, there was a fresh feeling in the air that almost set us a-longing for the rest of the hot afternoon, and the stretch of blossoming wheat seen from the shadow of the boughs. No one unburdened with very heavy anxieties could have felt otherwise than happy that morning: and it must be said that whatever anxieties might lie beneath the surface of things, we didn��t seem to come across any of them. We passed by several fields where haymaking was going on, but Dick, and especially Clara, were so jealous of our up-river festival that they would not allow me to have much to say to them. I could only notice that the people in the fields looked strong and handsome, both men and women, and that so far from there being any appearance of sordidness about their attire, they seemed to be dressed specially for the occasion �� lightly, of course, but gaily and with plenty of adornment. Both on this day as well as yesterday we had, as you may think, met and passed and been passed by many craft of one kind and another. The most part of these were being rowed like ourselves, or were sailing, in the sort of way that sailing is managed on the upper reaches of the river; but every now and then we came on barges, laden with hay or other country produce, or carrying bricks, lime, timber, and the like, and these were going on their way without any means of propulsion visible to me �� just a man at the tiller, with often a friend or two laughing and talking with him. Dick, seeing on one occasion this day, that I was looking rather hard on one of these, said: ��That is one of our force-barges; it is quite as easy to work vehicles by force by water as by land.�� I understood pretty well that these ��force vehicles�� had taken the place of our old steam-power carrying; but I took good care not to ask any questions about them, as I knew well enough both that I should never be able to understand how they were worked, and that in attempting to do so I should betray myself, or get into some complication impossible to explain; so I merely said, ��Yes, of course, I understand.�� We went ashore at Bisham, where the remains of the old Abbey and the Elizabethan house that had been added to them yet remained, none the worse for many years of careful and appreciative habitation. The folk of the place, however, were mostly in the fields that day, both men and women; so we met only two old men there, and a younger one who had stayed at home to get on with some literary work, which I imagine we considerably interrupted. Yet I also think that the hard-working man who received us was not very sorry for the interruption. Anyhow, he kept on pressing us to stay over and over again, till at last we did not get away till the cool of the evening. However, that mattered little to us; the nights were light, for the moon was shining in her third quarter, and it was all one to Dick whether he sculled or sat quiet in the boat: so we went away a great pace. The evening sun shone bright on the remains of the old buildings at Medmenham; close beside which arose an irregular pile of building which Dick told us was a very pleasant house; and there were plenty of houses visible on the wide meadows opposite, under the hill; for, as it seems that the beauty of Hurley had compelled people to build and live there a good deal. The sun very low down showed us Henley little altered in outward aspect from what I remembered it. Actual daylight failed us as we passed through the lovely reaches of Wargrave and Shiplake; but

the moon rose behind us presently. I should like to have seen with my eyes what success the new order of things had had in getting rid of the sprawling mess with which commercialism had littered the banks of the wide stream about Reading and Caversham: certainly everything smelt too deliciously in the early night for there to be any of the old careless sordidness of so-called manufacture; and in answer to my question as to what sort of a place Reading was, Dick answered: ��O, a nice town enough in its way; mostly rebuilt within the last hundred years; and there are a good many houses, as you can see by the lights just down under the hills yonder. In fact, it is one of the most populous places on the Thames round about here. Keep up your spirits, guest! we are close to our journey��s end for the night. I ought to ask your pardon for not stopping at one of the houses here or higher up; but a friend, who is living in a very pleasant house in the Maple-Durham meads, particularly wanted me and Clara to come and see him on our way up the Thames; and I thought you wouldn��t mind this bit of night travelling.�� He need not have adjured me to keep up my spirits, which were as high as possible; though the strangeness and excitement of the happy and quiet life which I saw everywhere around me was, it is true, a little wearing off, yet a deep content, as different as possible from languid acquiescence, was taking its place, and I was, as it were, really new-born. We landed presently just where I remembered the river making an elbow to the north towards the ancient house of the Blunts; with the wide meadows spreading on the right-hand side, and on the left the long line of beautiful old trees overhanging the water. As we got out of the boat, I said to Dick �� Is it the old house we are going to?�� No,�� he said, ��though that is standing still in green old age, and is well inhabited. I see, by the way, that you know your Thames well. But my friend Walter Allen, who asked me to stop here, lives in a house, not very big, which has been built here lately, because these meadows are so much liked, especially in summer, that there was getting to be rather too much of tenting on the open field; so the parishes here about, who rather objected to that, built three houses between this and Caversham, and quite a large one at Basildon, a little higher up. Look, yonder are the lights of Walter Allen��s house!�� So we walked over the grass of the meadows under a flood of moonlight, and soon came to the house, which was low and built round a quadrangle big enough to get plenty of sunshine in it. Walter Allen, Dick��s friend, was leaning against the jamb of the doorway waiting for us, and took us into the hall without overplus of words. There were not many people in it, as some of the dwellers there were away at the haymaking in the neighbourhood, and some, as Walter told us, were wandering about the meadow enjoying the beautiful moonlit night. Dick��s friend looked to be a man of about forty; tall, black-haired, very kind-looking and thoughtful; but rather to my surprise there was a shade of melancholy on his face, and he seemed a little abstracted and inattentive to our chat, in spite of obvious efforts to listen. Dick looked on him from time to time, and seemed troubled; and at last he said: ��I say, old fellow, if there is anything the matter which we didn��t know of when you wrote to me, don��t you think you had better tell us about it at once? Or else we shall think we have come here at an unlucky time, and are not quite wanted.�� Walter turned red, and seemed to have some difficulty in restraining his tears, but said at last: ��Of course everybody here is very glad to see you, Dick, and your friends; but it is true that we are not at our best, in spite of the fine weather and the glorious hay-crop. We have had a death here.�� Said Dick: ��Well, you should get over that, neighbour: such things must be.�� Yes,�� Walter said, ��but this was a death by violence, and it seems likely to lead to at least one more; and somehow it makes us

feel rather shy of one another; and to say the truth, that is one reason why there are so few of us present to-night.�� Tell us the story, Walter,�� said Dick; ��perhaps telling it will help you to shake off your sadness.�� Said Walter: ��Well, I will; and I will make it short enough, though I daresay it might be spun out into a long one, as used to be done with such subjects in the old novels. There is a very charming girl here whom we all like, and whom some of us do more than like; and she very naturally liked one of us better than anybody else. And another of us (I won��t name him) got fairly bitten with love-madness, and used to go about making himself as unpleasant as he could �� not of malice prepense, of course; so that the girl, who liked him well enough at first, though she didn��t love him, began fairly to dislike him. Of course, those of us who knew him best �� myself amongst others �� advised him to go away, as he was making matters worse and worse for himself every day. Well, he wouldn��t take our advice (that also, I suppose, was a matter of course), so we had to tell him that he MUST go, or the inevitable sending to Coventry would follow; for his individual trouble had so overmastered him that we felt that WE must go if he did not. ��He took that better than we expected, when something or other �� an interview with the girl, I think, and some hot words with the successful lover following close upon it, threw him quite off his balance; and he got hold of an axe and fell upon his rival when there was no one by; and in the struggle that followed the man attacked, hit him an unlucky blow and killed him. And now the slayer in his turn is so upset that he is like to kill himself; and if he does, the girl will do as much, I fear. And all this we could no more help than the earthquake of the year before last.�� It is very unhappy,�� said Dick; ��but since the man is dead, and cannot be brought to life again, and since the slayer had no malice in him, I cannot for the life of me see why he shouldn��t get over it before long. Besides, it was the right man that was killed and not the wrong. Why should a man brood over a mere accident for ever? And the girl?�� As to her,�� said Walter, ��the whole thing seems to have inspired her with terror rather than grief. What you say about the man is true, or it should be; but then, you see, the excitement and jealousy that was the prelude to this tragedy had made an evil and feverish element round about him, from which he does not seem to be able to escape. However, we have advised him to go away �� in fact, to cross the seas; but he is in such a state that I do not think he CAN go unless someone TAKES him, and I think it will fall to my lot to do so; which is scarcely a cheerful outlook for me.�� O, you will find a certain kind of interest in it,�� said Dick. ��And of course he MUST soon look upon the affair from a reasonable point of view sooner or later.�� Well, at any rate,�� quoth Walter, ��now that I have eased my mind by making you uncomfortable, let us have an end of the subject for the present. Are you going to take your guest to Oxford?�� Why, of course we must pass through it,�� said Dick, smiling, ��as we are going into the upper waters: but I thought that we wouldn��t stop there, or we shall be belated as to the haymaking up our way. So Oxford and my learned lecture on it, all got at second-hand from my old kinsman, must wait till we come down the water a fortnight hence.�� I listened to this story with much surprise, and could not help wondering at first that the man who had slain the other had not been put in custody till it could be proved that he killed his rival in self-defence only. However, the more I thought of it, the plainer it grew to me that no amount of examination of witnesses, who had witnessed nothing but the ill-blood between the two rivals, would have done anything to clear up the case. I could not help thinking, also, that the remorse of this homicide gave point to what old Hammond had said to me about the way in which this strange people dealt with what I had been used to hear called crimes. Truly, the remorse was exaggerated; but it was quite clear that the slayer took the whole consequences of the act upon himself, and did not expect society to whitewash him by punishing him. I had no fear any longer that ��the sacredness of human life�� was likely to suffer amongst my friends from the absence of gallows and prison.They were not slow to take my hint; and indeed, as to the mere time of day, it was best for us to be off, as it was past seven o��clock, and the day promised to be very hot. So we got up and went down to our boat �� Ellen thoughtful and abstracted; the old man very kind and courteous, as if to make up for his crabbedness of opinion. Clara was cheerful and natural, but a little subdued, I thought; and she at least was not sorry to be gone, and often looked shyly and timidly at Ellen and her strange wild beauty. So we got into the boat, Dick saying as he took his place, ��Well, it IS a fine day!�� and the old man answering ��What! you like that, do you?�� once more; and presently Dick was sending the bows swiftly through the slow weed-checked stream.

Quoth he: ��Up yonder are some beautiful old buildings, which were built for

a great college or teaching-place by one of the mediaeval kings �� Edward the Sixth, I think�� (I smiled to myself at his rather natural blunder). ��He meant poor people��s sons to be taught there what knowledge was going in his days; but it was a matter of course that in the times of which you seem to know so much they spoilt whatever good there was in the founder��s intentions.

And another of us (I won��t name him) got fairly bitten with love-madness, and used to go about making himself as unpleasant as he could �� not of malice prepense, of course; so that the girl, who liked him well enough at first, though she didn��t love him, began fairly to dislike him. Of course, those of us who knew him best �� myself amongst others �� advised him to go away, as he was making matters worse and worse for himself every day. Well, he wouldn��t take our advice (that also, I suppose, was a matter of course), so we had to tell him that he MUST go, or the inevitable sending to Coventry would follow; for his individual trouble had so overmastered him that we felt that WE must go if he did not. ��He took that better than we expected, when something or other �� an interview with the girl, I think, and some hot words with the successful lover following close upon it, threw him quite off his balance; and he got hold of an axe and fell upon his rival when there was no one by; and in the struggle that followed the man attacked, hit him an unlucky blow and killed him. And now the slayer in his turn is so upset that he is like to kill himself; and if he does, the girl will do as much, I fear. And all this we could no more help than the earthquake of the year before last.�� It is very unhappy,�� said Dick; ��but since the man is dead, and cannot be brought to life again, and since the slayer had no malice in him, I cannot for the life of me see why he shouldn��t get over it before long. Besides, it was the right man that was killed and not the wrong. Why should a man brood over a mere accident for ever? And the girl?�� As to her,�� said Walter, ��the whole thing seems to have inspired her with terror rather than grief. What you say about the man is true, or it should be; but then, you see, the excitement and jealousy that was the prelude to this tragedy had made an evil and feverish element round about him, from which he does not seem to be able to escape. However, we have advised him to go away �� in fact, to cross the seas; but he is in such a state that I do not think he CAN go unless someone TAKES him, and I think it will fall to my lot to do so; which is scarcely a cheerful outlook for me.�� O, you will find a certain kind of interest in it,�� said Dick. ��And of course he MUST soon look upon the affair from a reasonable point of view sooner or later.�� Well, at any rate,�� quoth Walter, ��now that I have eased my mind by making you uncomfortable, let us have an end of the subject for the present. Are you going to take your guest to Oxford?�� Why, of course we must pass through it,�� said Dick, smiling, ��as we are going into the upper waters: but I thought that we wouldn��t stop there, or we shall be belated as to the haymaking up our way. So Oxford and my learned lecture on it, all got at second-hand from my old kinsman, must wait till we come down the water a fortnight hence.�� I listened to this story with much surprise, and could not help wondering at first that the man who had slain the other had not been put in custody till it could be proved that he killed his rival in self-defence only. However, the more I thought of it, the plainer it grew to me that no amount of examination of witnesses, who had witnessed nothing but the ill-blood between the two rivals, would have done anything to clear up the case. I could not help thinking, also, that the remorse of this homicide gave point to what old Hammond had said to me about the way in which this strange people dealt with what I had been used to hear called crimes. Truly, the remorse was exaggerated; but it was quite clear that the slayer took the whole consequences of the act upon himself, and did not expect society to whitewash him by punishing him. I had no fear any longer that ��the sacredness of human life�� was likely to suffer amongst my friends from the absence of gallows and prison.They were not slow to take my hint; and indeed, as to the mere time of day, it was best for us to be off, as it was past seven o��clock, and the day promised to be very hot. So we got up and went down to our boat �� Ellen thoughtful and abstracted; the old man very kind and courteous, as if to make up for his crabbedness of opinion. Clara was cheerful and natural, but a

little subdued, I thought; and she at least was not sorry to be gone, and often looked shyly and timidly at Ellen and her strange wild beauty. So we got into the boat, Dick saying as he took his place, ��Well, it IS a fine day!�� and the old man answering ��What! you like that, do you?�� once more; and presently Dick was sending the bows swiftly through the slow weed-checked stream. I turned round as we got into mid-stream, and waving my hand to our hosts, saw Ellen leaning on the old man��s shoulder, and caressing his healthy apple-red cheek, and quite a keen pang smote me as I thought how I should never see the beautiful girl again. Presently I insisted on taking the sculls, and I rowed a good deal that day; which no doubt accounts for the fact that we got very late to the place which Dick had aimed at. Clara was particularly affectionate to Dick, as I noticed from the rowing thwart; but as for him, he was as frankly kind and merry as ever; and I was glad to see it, as a man of his temperament could not have taken her caresses cheerfully and without embarrassment if he had been at all entangled by the fairy of our last night��s abode. I need say little about the lovely reaches of the river here. I duly noted that absence of cockney villas which the old man had lamented; and I saw with pleasure that my old enemies the ��Gothic�� cast-iron bridges had been replaced by handsome oak and stone ones. Also the banks of the forest that we passed through had lost their courtly game-keeperish trimness, and were as wild and beautiful as need he, though the trees were clearly well seen to. I thought it best, in order to get the most direct information, to play the innocent about Eton and Windsor; but Dick volunteered his knowledge to me as we lay in Datchet lock about the first. Quoth he: ��Up yonder are some beautiful old buildings, which were built for a great college or teaching-place by one of the mediaeval kings �� Edward the Sixth, I think�� (I smiled to myself at his rather natural blunder). ��He meant poor people��s sons to be taught there what knowledge was going in his days; but it was a matter of course that in the times of which you seem to know so much they spoilt whatever good there was in the founder��s intentions. My old kinsman says that they treated them in a very simple way, and instead of teaching poor men��s sons to know something, they taught rich men��s sons to know nothing. It seems from what he says that it was a place for the ��aristocracy�� (if you know what that word means; I have been told its meaning) to get rid of the company of their male children for a great part of the year. I daresay old Hammond would give you plenty of information in detail about it.�� What is it used for now?�� said I. ��Well,�� said he, ��the buildings were a good deal spoilt by the last few generations of aristocrats, who seem to have had a great hatred against beautiful old buildings, and indeed all records of past history; but it is still a delightful place. Of course, we cannot use it quite as the founder intended, since our ideas about teaching young people are so changed from the ideas of his time; so it is used now as a dwelling for people engaged in learning; and folk from round about come and get taught things that they want to learn; and there is a great library there of the best books. So that I don��t think that the old dead king would be much hurt if he were to come to life and see what we are doing there.�� Well,�� said Clara, laughing, ��I think he would miss the boys.�� Not always, my dear,�� said Dick, ��for there are often plenty of boys there, who come to get taught; and also,�� said he, smiling, ��to learn boating and swimming. I wish we could stop there: but perhaps we had better do that coming down the water.�� The lock-gates opened as he spoke, and out we went, and on. And as for Windsor, he said nothing till I lay on my oars (for I was sculling then) in Clewer reach, and looking up, said, ��What is all that building up there?�� Said he: ��There, I thought I would wait till you asked, yourself. That is Windsor Castle: that also I thought I would keep for you till we come down the water. It looks fine from here, doesn��t it? But a great deal of it has been built or skinned in the time of the Degradation, and we wouldn��t pull the buildings down, since they were there; just as with the buildings of the Dung-Market. You know, of course, that it was the palace of our old mediaeval kings, and was used later on for the same purpose by the parliamentary commercial sham-kings, as my old kinsman calls them.�� Yes,�� said I, ��I know all that. What is it used for now?�� A great many people live there,�� said he, ��as, with all drawbacks, it is a pleasant place; there is also a well-arranged store of antiquities of various kinds that have seemed worth keeping �� a museum, it would have been called in the times you understand so well.�� I drew my sculls through the water at that last word, and pulled as if I were fleeing from those times which I understood so well; and we were soon going up the once sorely be-cockneyed reaches of the river about Maidenhead, which now looked as pleasant and enjoyable as the up-river reaches. The morning was now getting on, the morning of a jewel of a summer day; one of those days which, if they were commoner in these islands, would make our climate the best of all climates, without dispute. A light wind blew from the west; the little clouds that had arisen at

about our breakfast time had seemed to get higher and higher in the heavens; and in spite of the burning sun we no more longed for rain than we feared it. Burning as the sun was, there was a fresh feeling in the air that almost set us a-longing for the rest of the hot afternoon, and the stretch of blossoming wheat seen from the shadow of the boughs. No one unburdened with very heavy anxieties could have felt otherwise than happy that morning: and it must be said that whatever anxieties might lie beneath the surface of things, we didn��t seem to come across any of them. We passed by several fields where haymaking was going on, but Dick, and especially Clara, were so jealous of our up-river festival that they would not allow me to have much to say to them. I could only notice that the people in the fields looked strong and handsome, both men and women, and that so far from there being any appearance of sordidness about their attire, they seemed to be dressed specially for the occasion �� lightly, of course, but gaily and with plenty of adornment. Both on this day as well as yesterday we had, as you may think, met and passed and been passed by many craft of one kind and another. The most part of these were being rowed like ourselves, or were sailing, in the sort of way that sailing is managed on the upper reaches of the river; but every now and then we came on barges, laden with hay or other country produce, or carrying bricks, lime, timber, and the like, and these were going on their way without any means of propulsion visible to me �� just a man at the tiller, with often a friend or two laughing and talking with him. Dick, seeing on one occasion this day, that I was looking rather hard on one of these, said: ��That is one of our force-barges; it is quite as easy to work vehicles by force by water as by land.�� I understood pretty well that these ��force vehicles�� had taken the place of our old steam-power carrying; but I took good care not to ask any questions about them, as I knew well enough both that I should never be able to understand how they were worked, and that in attempting to do so I should betray myself, or get into some complication impossible to explain; so I merely said, ��Yes, of course, I understand.�� We went ashore at Bisham, where the remains of the old Abbey and the Elizabethan house that had been added to them yet remained, none the worse for many years of careful and appreciative habitation. The folk of the place, however, were mostly in the fields that day, both men and women; so we met only two old men there, and a younger one who had stayed at home to get on with some literary work, which I imagine we considerably interrupted. Yet I also think that the hard-working man who received us was not very sorry for the interruption. Anyhow, he kept on pressing us to stay over and over again, till at last we did not get away till the cool of the evening. However, that mattered little to us; the nights were light, for the moon was shining in her third quarter, and it was all one to Dick whether he sculled or sat quiet in the boat: so we went away a great pace. The evening sun shone bright on the remains of the old buildings at Medmenham; close beside which arose an irregular pile of building which Dick told us was a very pleasant house; and there were plenty of houses visible on the wide meadows opposite, under the hill; for, as it seems that the beauty of Hurley had compelled people to build and live there a good deal. The sun very low down showed us Henley little altered in outward aspect from what I remembered it. Actual daylight failed us as we passed through the lovely reaches of Wargrave and Shiplake; but the moon rose behind us presently. I should like to have seen with my eyes what success the new order of things had had in getting rid of the sprawling mess with which commercialism had littered the banks of the wide stream about Reading and Caversham: certainly everything smelt too deliciously in the early night for there to be any of the old careless sordidness of so-called manufacture; and in answer to my question as to what sort of a place Reading was, Dick answered: ��O, a nice town enough in its way; mostly rebuilt within the last hundred years; and there are a good many houses, as you can see by the lights just down under the hills yonder. In fact, it is one of the most populous places on the Thames round about here. Keep up your spirits, guest! we are close to our journey��s end for the night. I ought to ask your pardon for not stopping at one of the houses here or higher up; but a friend, who is living in a very pleasant house in the Maple-Durham meads, particularly wanted me and Clara to come and see him on our way up the Thames; and I thought you wouldn��t mind this bit of night travelling.�� He need not have adjured me to keep up my spirits, which were as high as possible; though the strangeness and excitement of the happy and quiet life which I saw everywhere around me was, it is true, a little wearing off, yet a deep content, as different as possible from languid acquiescence, was taking its place, and I was, as it were, really new-born. We landed presently just where I remembered the river making an elbow to the north towards the ancient house of the Blunts; with the wide meadows spreading on the right-hand side, and on the left the long line of beautiful old trees overhanging the water. As we got out of the boat, I said to Dick �� Is

michael kors sunglasses purse

it the old house we are going to?�� No,�� he said, ��though that is standing still in green old age, and is well inhabited. I see, by the way, that you know your Thames well. But my friend Walter Allen, who asked me to stop here, lives in a house, not very big, which has been built here lately, because these meadows are so much liked, especially in summer, that there was getting to be rather too much of tenting on the open field; so the parishes here about, who rather objected to that, built three houses between this and Caversham, and quite a large one at Basildon, a little higher up. Look, yonder are the lights of Walter Allen��s house!�� So we walked over the grass of the meadows under a flood of moonlight, and soon came to the house, which was low and built round a quadrangle big enough to get plenty of sunshine in it. Walter Allen, Dick��s friend, was leaning against the jamb of the doorway waiting for us, and took us into the hall without overplus of words. There were not many people in it, as some of the dwellers there were away at the haymaking in the neighbourhood, and some, as Walter told us, were wandering about the meadow enjoying the beautiful moonlit night. Dick��s friend looked to be a man of about forty; tall, black-haired, very kind-looking and thoughtful; but rather to my surprise there was a shade of melancholy on his face, and he seemed a little abstracted and inattentive to our chat, in spite of obvious efforts to listen. Dick looked on him from time to time, and seemed troubled; and at last he said: ��I say, old fellow, if there is anything the matter which we didn��t know of when you wrote to me, don��t you think you had better tell us about it at once? Or else we shall think we have come here at an unlucky time, and are not quite wanted.�� Walter turned red, and seemed to have some difficulty in restraining his tears, but said at last: ��Of course everybody here is very glad to see you, Dick, and your friends; but it is true that we are not at our best, in spite of the fine weather and the glorious hay-crop. We have had a death here.�� Said Dick: ��Well, you should get over that, neighbour: such things must be.�� Yes,�� Walter said, ��but this was a death by violence, and it seems likely to lead to at least one more; and somehow it makes us feel rather shy of one another; and to say the truth, that is one reason why there are so few of us present to-night.�� Tell us the story, Walter,�� said Dick; ��perhaps telling it will help you to shake off your sadness.�� Said Walter: ��Well, I will; and I will make it short enough, though I daresay it might be spun out into a long one, as used to be done with such subjects in the old novels.

by making you uncomfortable, let us have an end of the subject for the present. Are you going to take your guest to Oxford?�� Why, of course we must pass through it,�� said Dick, smiling, ��as we are going into the upper waters: but I thought that we wouldn��t stop there, or we shall be belated as to the haymaking up our way. So Oxford and my learned lecture on it, all got at second-hand from my old kinsman, must wait till we come down the water a fortnight hence.�� I listened to this story with much surprise, and could not help wondering at first that the man who had slain the other had not been put in custody till it could be proved that he killed his rival in self-defence only. However, the more I thought of it, the plainer it grew to me that no amount of examination of witnesses, who had witnessed nothing but the ill-blood between the two rivals, would have done anything to clear up the case. I could not help thinking, also, that the remorse of this homicide gave point to what old Hammond had said to me about the way in which this strange people dealt with what I had been used to hear called crimes. Truly, the remorse was exaggerated; but it was quite clear that the slayer took the whole consequences of the act upon himself, and did not expect society to whitewash him by punishing him. I had no fear any longer that ��the sacredness of human life�� was likely to suffer amongst my friends from the absence of gallows and prison.Though there were no rough noises to wake me, I could not lie long abed the next morning, where the world seemed so well awake, and, despite the old grumbler, so happy; so I got up, and found that, early as it was, someone had been stirring, since all was trim and in its place in the little parlour, and the table laid for the morning meal. Nobody was afoot in the house as then, however, so I went out a-doors, and after a turn or two round the superabundant garden, I wandered down over the meadow to the river-side, where lay our boat, looking quite familiar and friendly to me. I walked up stream a little, watching the light mist curling up from the river till the sun gained power to draw it all away; saw the bleak speckling the water under the willow boughs, whence the tiny flies they fed on were falling in myriads; heard the great chub splashing here and there at some belated moth or other, and felt almost back again in my boyhood. Then I went back again to the boat, and loitered there a minute or two, and then walked slowly up the meadow towards the little house. I noted now that there were four more houses of about the same size on the slope away from the river. The meadow in which I was going was not up for hay; but a row of flake-hurdles ran up the slope not far from me on each side, and in the field so parted off from ours on the left they were making hay busily by now, in the simple fashion of the days when I was a boy. My feet turned that way instinctively, as I wanted to see how haymakers looked in these new and better times, and also I rather expected to see Ellen there. I came to the hurdles and stood looking over into the hay-field, and was close to the end of the long line of haymakers who were spreading the low ridges to dry off the night dew. The majority of these were young women clad much like Ellen last night, though not mostly in silk, but in light woollen mostly gaily embroidered; the men being all clad in white flannel embroidered in bright colours. The meadow looked like a gigantic tulip-bed because of them. All hands were working deliberately but well and steadily, though they were as noisy with merry talk as a grove of autumn starlings. Half a dozen of them, men and women, came up to me and shook hands, gave me the sele of the morning, and asked a few questions as to whence and whither, and wishing me good luck, went back to their work. Ellen, to my disappointment, was not amongst them, but presently I saw a light figure come out of the hay-field higher up the slope, and make for our house; and that was Ellen, holding a basket in her hand. But before she had come to the garden gate, out came Dick and Clara, who, after a minute��s pause, came down to meet me, leaving Ellen in the garden; then we three went down to the boat, talking mere morning prattle. We stayed there a little, Dick arranging some of the matters in her, for we had only taken up to the house such things as we thought the dew might damage; and then we went toward the house again; but when we came near the garden, Dick stopped us by laying a hand on my arm and said, �� Just look a moment.�� I looked, and over the low hedge saw Ellen, shading her eyes against the sun as she looked toward the hay-field, a light wind stirring in her tawny hair, her eyes like light jewels amidst her sunburnt face, which looked as if the warmth of the sun were yet in it. ��Look, guest,�� said Dick; ��doesn��t it all look like one of those very stories out of Grimm that we were talking about up in Bloomsbury? Here are we two lovers wandering about the world, and we have come to a fairy garden, and there is the very fairy herself amidst of it: I wonder what she will do for us.�� Said Clara demurely, but not stiffly: ��Is she a good fairy, Dick?�� O, yes,�� said he; ��and according to the card, she would do better, if it were not for the gnome or wood-spirit, our grumbling friend

Michael Kors wallet

of last night.�� We laughed at this; and I said, ��I hope you see that you have left me out of the tale.�� Well,�� said he, ��that��s true. You had better consider that you have got the cap of darkness, and are seeing everything, yourself invisible.�� That touched me on my weak side of not feeling sure of my position in this beautiful new country; so in order not to make matters worse, I held my tongue, and we all went into the garden and up to the house together. I noticed by the way that Clara must really rather have felt the contrast between herself as a town madam and this piece of the summer country that we all admired so, for she had rather dressed after Ellen that morning as to thinness and scantiness, and went barefoot also, except for light sandals. The old man greeted us kindly in the parlour, and said: ��Well, guests, so you have been looking about to search into the nakedness of the land: I suppose your illusions of last night have given way a bit before the morning light? Do you still like, it, eh?�� Very much,�� said I, doggedly; ��it is one of the prettiest places on the lower Thames.�� Oho!�� said he; ��so you know the Thames, do you?�� I reddened, for I saw Dick and Clara looking at me, and scarcely knew what to say. However, since I had said in our early intercourse with my Hammersmith friends that I had known Epping Forest, I thought a hasty generalisation might be better in avoiding complications than a downright lie; so I said ��

The most part of these were being rowed like ourselves, or were sailing, in the sort of way that sailing is managed on the upper reaches of the river; but every now and then we came on barges, laden with hay or other country produce, or carrying bricks, lime, timber, and the like, and these were going on their way without any means of propulsion visible to me �� just a man at the tiller, with often a friend or two laughing and talking with him. Dick, seeing on one occasion this day, that I was looking rather hard on one of these, said: ��That is one of our force-barges; it is quite as easy to work vehicles by force by water as by land.�� I understood pretty well that these ��force vehicles�� had taken the place of our old steam-power carrying; but I took good care not to ask any questions about them, as I knew well enough both that I should never be able to understand how they were worked, and that in attempting to do so I should betray myself, or get into some complication impossible to explain; so I merely said, ��Yes, of course, I understand.�� We went ashore at Bisham, where the remains of the old Abbey and the Elizabethan house that had been added to them yet remained, none the worse for many years of careful and appreciative habitation. The folk of the place, however, were mostly in the fields that day, both men and women; so we met only two old men there, and a younger one who had stayed at home to get on with some literary work, which I imagine we considerably interrupted. Yet I also think that the hard-working man who received us was not very sorry for the interruption. Anyhow, he kept on pressing us to stay over and over again, till at last we did not get away till the cool of the evening. However, that mattered little to us; the nights were light, for the moon was shining in her third quarter, and it was all one to Dick whether he sculled or sat quiet in the boat: so we went away a great pace. The evening sun shone bright on the remains of the old buildings at Medmenham; close beside which arose an irregular pile of building which Dick told us was a very pleasant house; and there were plenty of houses visible on the wide meadows opposite, under the hill; for, as it seems that the beauty of Hurley had compelled people to build and live there a good deal. The sun very low down showed us Henley little altered in outward aspect from what I remembered it. Actual daylight failed us as we passed through the lovely reaches of Wargrave and Shiplake; but the moon rose behind us presently. I should like to have seen with my eyes what success the new order of things had had in getting rid of the sprawling mess with which commercialism had littered the banks of the wide stream about Reading and Caversham: certainly everything smelt too deliciously in the early night for there to be any of the old careless sordidness of so-called manufacture; and in answer to my question as to what sort of a place Reading was, Dick answered: ��O, a nice town enough in its way; mostly rebuilt within the last hundred years; and there are a good many houses, as you can see by the lights just down under the hills yonder. In fact, it is one of the most populous places on the Thames round about here. Keep up your spirits, guest! we are close to our journey��s end for the night. I ought to ask your pardon for not stopping at one of the houses here or higher up; but a friend, who is living in a very pleasant house in the Maple-Durham meads, particularly wanted me and Clara to come and see him on our way up the Thames; and I thought you wouldn��t mind this bit of night travelling.�� He need not have adjured me to keep up my spirits, which were as high as possible; though the

strangeness and excitement of the happy and quiet life which I saw everywhere around me was, it is true, a little wearing off, yet a deep content, as different as possible from languid acquiescence, was taking its place, and I was, as it were, really new-born. We landed presently just where I remembered the river making an elbow to the north towards the ancient house of the Blunts; with the wide meadows spreading on the right-hand side, and on the left the long line of beautiful old trees overhanging the water. As we got out of the boat, I said to Dick �� Is it the old house we are going to?�� No,�� he said, ��though that is standing still in green old age, and is well inhabited. I see, by the way, that you know your Thames well. But my friend Walter Allen, who asked me to stop here, lives in a house, not very big, which has been built here lately, because these meadows are so much liked, especially in summer, that there was getting to be rather too much of tenting on the open field; so the parishes here about, who rather objected to that, built three houses between this and Caversham, and quite a large one at Basildon, a little higher up. Look, yonder are the lights of Walter Allen��s house!�� So we walked over the grass of the meadows under a flood of moonlight, and soon came to the house, which was low and built round a quadrangle big enough to get plenty of sunshine in it. Walter Allen, Dick��s friend, was leaning against the jamb of the doorway waiting for us, and took us into the hall without overplus of words. There were not many people in it, as some of the dwellers there were away at the haymaking in the neighbourhood, and some, as Walter told us, were wandering about the meadow enjoying the beautiful moonlit night. Dick��s friend looked to be a man of about forty; tall, black-haired, very kind-looking and thoughtful; but rather to my surprise there was a shade of melancholy on his face, and he seemed a little abstracted and inattentive to our chat, in spite of obvious efforts to listen. Dick looked on him from time to time, and seemed troubled; and at last he said: ��I say, old fellow, if there is anything the matter which we didn��t know of when you wrote to me, don��t you think you had better tell us about it at once? Or else we shall think we have come here at an unlucky time, and are not quite wanted.�� Walter turned red, and seemed to have some difficulty in restraining his tears, but said at last: ��Of course everybody here is very glad to see you, Dick, and your friends; but it is true that we are not at our best, in spite of the fine weather and the glorious hay-crop. We have had a death here.�� Said Dick: ��Well, you should get over that, neighbour: such things must be.�� Yes,�� Walter said, ��but this was a death by violence, and it seems likely to lead to at least one more; and somehow it makes us feel rather shy of one another; and to say the truth, that is one reason why there are so few of us present to-night.�� Tell us the story, Walter,�� said Dick; ��perhaps telling it will help you to shake off your sadness.�� Said Walter: ��Well, I will; and I will make it short enough, though I daresay it might be spun out into a long one, as used to be done with such subjects in the old novels. There is a very charming girl here whom we all like, and whom some of us do more than like; and she very naturally liked one of us better than anybody else. And another of us (I won��t name him) got fairly bitten with love-madness, and used to go about making himself as unpleasant as he could �� not of malice prepense, of course; so that the girl, who liked him well enough at first, though she didn��t love him, began fairly to dislike him. Of course, those of us who knew him best �� myself amongst others �� advised him to go away, as he was making matters worse and worse for himself every day. Well, he wouldn��t take our advice (that also, I suppose, was a matter of course), so we had to tell him that he MUST go, or the inevitable sending to Coventry would follow; for his individual trouble had so overmastered him that we felt that WE must go if he did not. ��He took that better than we expected, when something or other �� an interview with the girl, I think, and some hot words with the successful lover following close upon it, threw him quite off his balance; and he got hold of an axe and fell upon his rival when there was no one by; and in the struggle that followed the man attacked, hit him an unlucky blow and killed him. And now the slayer in his turn is so upset that he is like to kill himself; and if he does, the girl will do as much, I fear. And all this we could no more help than the earthquake of the year before last.�� It is very unhappy,�� said Dick; ��but since the man is dead, and cannot be brought to life again, and since the slayer had no malice in him, I cannot for the life of me see why he shouldn��t get over it before long. Besides, it was the right man that was killed and not the wrong. Why should a man brood over a mere accident for ever? And the girl?�� As to her,�� said Walter, ��the whole thing seems to have inspired her with terror rather than grief. What you say about the man is true, or it should be; but then, you see, the excitement and jealousy that was the prelude to this tragedy had made an evil and feverish element round about him, from which he does not seem to be able to escape. However, we have advised him to go away �� in fact, to cross the seas; but he is in such a state that I do not think he CAN go unless someone TAKES him, and I think it will fall to my lot to do so; which is scarcely a cheerful outlook for me.�� O, you will find a certain kind of interest in it,�� said Dick. ��And of course he MUST soon look upon the affair from a reasonable point of view sooner or later.�� Well, at any rate,�� quoth Walter, ��now that I have eased my mind by making you uncomfortable, let us have an end of the subject for the present. Are you going to take your guest to Oxford?�� Why, of course we must pass through it,�� said Dick, smiling, ��as we are going into the upper waters: but I thought that we wouldn��t stop there, or we shall be belated as to the haymaking up our way. So Oxford and my learned lecture on it, all got at second-hand from my old kinsman, must wait till we come down the water a fortnight hence.�� I listened to this story with much surprise, and could not help wondering at first that the man who had slain the other had not been put in custody till it could be proved that he killed his rival in self-defence only. However, the more I thought of it, the plainer it grew to me that no amount of examination of witnesses, who had witnessed nothing but the ill-blood between the two rivals, would have done anything to clear

michael kors handbags outlet store

up the case. I could not help thinking, also, that the remorse of this homicide gave point to what old Hammond had said to me about the way in which this strange people dealt with what I had been used to hear called crimes. Truly, the remorse was exaggerated; but it was quite clear that the slayer took the whole consequences of the act upon himself, and did not expect society to whitewash him by punishing him. I had no fear any longer that ��the sacredness of human life�� was likely to suffer amongst my friends from the absence of gallows and prison.They were not slow to take my hint; and indeed, as to the mere time of day, it was best for us to be off, as it was past seven o��clock, and the day promised to be very hot. So we got up and went down to our boat �� Ellen thoughtful and abstracted; the old man very kind and courteous, as if to make up for his crabbedness of opinion. Clara was cheerful and natural, but a little subdued, I thought; and she at least was not sorry to be gone, and often looked shyly and timidly at Ellen and her strange wild beauty. So we got into the boat, Dick saying as he took his place, ��Well, it IS a fine day!�� and the old man answering ��What! you like that, do you?�� once more; and presently Dick was sending the bows swiftly through the slow weed-checked stream. I turned round as we got into mid-stream, and waving my hand to our hosts, saw Ellen leaning on the old man��s shoulder, and caressing his healthy apple-red cheek, and quite a keen pang smote me as I thought how I should never see the beautiful girl again. Presently I insisted on taking the sculls, and I rowed a good deal that day; which no doubt accounts for the fact that we got very late to the place which Dick had aimed at. Clara was particularly affectionate to Dick, as I noticed from the rowing thwart; but as for him, he was as frankly kind and merry as ever; and I was glad to see it, as a man of his temperament could not have taken her caresses cheerfully and without embarrassment if he had been at all entangled by the fairy of our last night��s abode. I need say little about the lovely reaches of the river here. I duly noted that absence of cockney villas which the old man had lamented; and I saw with pleasure that my old enemies the ��Gothic�� cast-iron bridges had been replaced by handsome oak and stone ones. Also the banks of the forest that we passed through had lost their courtly game-keeperish trimness, and were as wild and beautiful as need he, though the trees were clearly well seen to. I thought it best, in order to get the most direct information, to play the innocent about Eton and Windsor; but Dick volunteered his knowledge to me as we lay in Datchet lock about the first. Quoth he: ��Up yonder are some beautiful old buildings, which were built for a great college or teaching-place by one of the mediaeval kings �� Edward the Sixth, I think�� (I smiled to myself at his rather natural blunder). ��He meant poor people��s sons to be taught there what knowledge was going in his days; but it was a matter of course that in the times of which you seem to know so much they spoilt whatever good there was in the founder��s intentions. My old kinsman says that they treated them in a very simple way, and instead of teaching poor men��s sons to know something, they taught rich men��s sons to know nothing. It seems from what he says that it was a place for the ��aristocracy�� (if you know what that word means; I have been told its meaning) to get rid of the company of their male children for a great part of the year. I daresay old Hammond would give you plenty of information in detail about it.�� What is it used for now?�� said I. ��Well,�� said he, ��the buildings were a good deal spoilt by the last few generations of aristocrats, who seem to have had a great hatred against beautiful old buildings, and indeed all records of past history; but it is still a delightful place. Of course, we cannot use it quite as the founder intended, since our ideas about teaching young people are so changed from the ideas of his time; so it is used now as a dwelling for people engaged in learning; and folk from round about come and get taught things that they want to learn; and there is a great library there of the best books. So that I don��t think that the old dead king would be much hurt if he were to come to life and see what we are doing there.�� Well,�� said Clara, laughing, ��I think he would miss the boys.�� Not always, my dear,�� said Dick, ��for there are often plenty of boys there, who come to get taught; and also,�� said he, smiling, ��to learn boating and swimming. I wish we could stop there: but perhaps we had better do that coming down the water.�� The lock-gates opened as he spoke, and out we went, and on. And as for Windsor, he said nothing till I lay on my oars (for I was sculling then) in Clewer reach, and looking up, said, ��What is all that building up there?�� Said he: ��There, I thought I would wait till you asked, yourself. That is Windsor Castle: that also I thought I would keep for you till we come down the water. It looks fine from here, doesn��t it? But a great deal of it has been built or skinned in the time of the Degradation, and we wouldn��t pull the buildings down, since they were there; just as with the buildings of the Dung-Market. You know, of course, that it was the palace of our old mediaeval kings, and was

michael kors outlet store online sale

used later on for the same purpose by the parliamentary commercial sham-kings, as my old kinsman calls them.�� Yes,�� said I, ��I know all that. What is it used for now?�� A great many people live there,�� said he, ��as, with all drawbacks, it is a pleasant place; there is also a well-arranged store of antiquities of various kinds that have seemed worth keeping �� a museum, it would have been called in the times you understand so well.�� I drew my sculls through the water at that last word, and pulled as if I were fleeing from those times which I understood so well; and we were soon going up the once sorely be-cockneyed reaches of the river about Maidenhead, which now looked as pleasant and enjoyable as the up-river reaches. The morning was now getting on, the morning of a jewel of a summer day; one of those days which, if they were commoner in these islands, would make our climate the best of all climates, without dispute. A light wind blew from the west; the little clouds that had arisen at about our breakfast time had seemed to get higher and higher in the heavens; and in spite of the burning sun we no more longed for rain than we feared it. Burning as the sun was, there was a fresh feeling in the air that almost set us a-longing for the rest of the hot afternoon, and the stretch of blossoming wheat seen from the shadow of the boughs. No one unburdened with very heavy anxieties could have felt otherwise than happy that morning: and it must be said that whatever anxieties might lie beneath the surface of things, we didn��t seem to come across any of them. We passed by several fields where haymaking was going on, but Dick, and especially Clara, were so jealous of our up-river festival that they would not allow me to have much to say to them. I could only notice that the people in the fields looked strong and handsome, both men and women, and that so far from there being any appearance of sordidness about their attire, they seemed to be dressed specially for the occasion �� lightly, of course, but gaily and with plenty of adornment. Both on this day as well as yesterday we had, as you may think, met and passed and been passed by many craft of one kind and another. The most part of these were being rowed like ourselves, or were sailing, in the sort of way that sailing is managed on the upper reaches of the river; but every now and then we came on barges, laden with hay or other country produce, or carrying bricks, lime, timber, and the like, and these were going on their way without any means of propulsion visible to me �� just a man at the tiller, with often a friend or two laughing and talking with him. Dick, seeing on one occasion this day, that I was looking rather hard on one of these, said: ��That is one of our force-barges; it is quite as easy to work vehicles by force by water as by land.�� I understood pretty well that these ��force vehicles�� had taken the place of our old steam-power carrying; but I took good care not to ask any questions about them, as I knew well enough both that I should never be able to understand how they were worked, and that in attempting to do so I should betray myself, or get into some complication impossible to explain; so I merely said, ��Yes, of course, I understand.�� We went ashore at Bisham, where the remains of the old Abbey and the Elizabethan house that had been added to them yet remained, none the worse for many years of careful and appreciative habitation. The folk of the place, however, were mostly in the fields that day, both men and women; so we met only two old men there, and a younger one who had stayed at home to get on with some literary work, which I imagine we considerably interrupted. Yet I also think that the hard-working man who received us was not very sorry for the interruption. Anyhow, he kept on pressing us to stay over and over again, till at last we did not get away till the cool of the evening. However, that mattered little to us; the nights were light, for the moon was shining in her third quarter, and it was all one to Dick whether he sculled or sat quiet in the boat: so we went away a great pace. The evening sun shone bright on the remains of the old buildings at Medmenham; close beside which arose an irregular pile of building which Dick told us was a very pleasant house; and there were plenty of houses visible on the wide meadows opposite, under the hill; for, as it seems that the beauty of Hurley had compelled people to build and live there a good deal. The sun very low down showed us Henley little altered in outward aspect from what I remembered it. Actual daylight failed us as we passed through the lovely reaches of Wargrave and Shiplake; but the moon rose behind us presently. I should like to have seen with my eyes what success the new order of things had had in getting rid of the sprawling mess with which commercialism had littered the banks of the wide stream about Reading and Caversham: certainly everything smelt too deliciously in the early night for there to be any of the old careless sordidness of so-called manufacture; and in answer to my question as to what sort of a place Reading was, Dick answered: ��O, a nice town enough in its way; mostly rebuilt within the last hundred years; and there are a good many houses, as you can see by the lights just down under the hills yonder.

I ought to ask your pardon for not stopping at one of the houses here or higher up; but a friend, who is living in a very pleasant house in the Maple-Durham meads, particularly wanted me and Clara to come and see him on our way up the Thames; and I thought you wouldn��t mind this bit of night travelling.�� He need not have adjured me to keep up my spirits, which were as high as possible; though the strangeness and excitement of the happy and quiet life which I saw everywhere around me was, it is true, a little wearing off, yet a deep content, as different as possible from languid acquiescence, was taking its place, and I was, as it were, really new-born.

What is it used for now?�� A great many people live there,�� said he, ��as, with all drawbacks, it is a pleasant place; there is also a well-arranged store of antiquities of various kinds that have seemed worth keeping �� a museum, it would have been called in the times you understand so well.�� I drew my sculls through the water at that last word, and pulled as if I were fleeing from those times which I understood so well; and we were soon going up the once sorely be-cockneyed reaches of the river about Maidenhead, which now looked as pleasant and enjoyable as the up-river reaches. The morning was now getting on, the morning of a jewel of a summer day; one of those days which, if they were commoner in these islands, would make our climate the best of all climates, without dispute. A light wind blew from the west; the little clouds that had arisen at about our breakfast time had seemed to get higher and higher in the heavens; and in spite of the burning sun we no more longed for rain than we feared it. Burning as the sun was, there was a fresh feeling in the air that almost set us a-longing for the rest of the hot afternoon, and the stretch of blossoming wheat seen from the shadow of the boughs. No one unburdened with very heavy anxieties could have felt otherwise than happy that morning: and it must be said that whatever anxieties might lie beneath the surface of things, we didn��t seem to come across any of them. We passed by several fields where haymaking was going on, but Dick, and especially Clara, were so jealous of our up-river festival that they would not allow me to have much to say to them. I could only notice that the people in the fields looked strong and handsome, both men and women, and that so far from there being any appearance of sordidness about their attire, they seemed to be dressed specially for the occasion �� lightly, of course, but gaily and with plenty of adornment. Both on this day as well as yesterday we had, as you may think, met and passed and been passed by many craft of one kind and another. The most part of these were being rowed like ourselves, or were sailing, in the sort of way that sailing is managed on the upper reaches of the river; but every now and then we came on barges, laden with hay or other country produce, or carrying bricks, lime, timber, and the like, and these were going on their way without any means of propulsion visible to me �� just a man at the tiller, with often a friend or two laughing and talking with him. Dick, seeing on one occasion this day, that I was looking rather hard on one of these, said: ��That is one of our force-barges; it is quite as easy to work vehicles by force by water as by land.�� I understood pretty well that these ��force vehicles�� had taken the place of our old steam-power carrying; but I took good care not to ask any questions about them, as I knew well enough both that I should never be able to understand how they were worked, and that in attempting to do so I should betray myself, or get into some complication impossible to explain; so I merely said, ��Yes, of course, I understand.�� We went ashore at Bisham, where the remains of the old Abbey and the Elizabethan house that had been added to them yet remained, none the worse for many years of careful and appreciative habitation. The folk of the place, however, were mostly in the fields that day, both men and women; so we met only two old men there, and a younger one who had stayed at home to get

michael kors rose gold watch

on with some literary work, which I imagine we considerably interrupted. Yet I also think that the hard-working man who received us was not very sorry for the interruption. Anyhow, he kept on pressing us to stay over and over again, till at last we did not get away till the cool of the evening. However, that mattered little to us; the nights were light, for the moon was shining in her third quarter, and it was all one to Dick whether he sculled or sat quiet in the boat: so we went away a great pace. The evening sun shone bright on the remains of the old buildings at Medmenham; close beside which arose an irregular pile of building which Dick told us was a very pleasant house; and there were plenty of houses visible on the wide meadows opposite, under the hill; for, as it seems that the beauty of Hurley had compelled people to build and live there a good deal. The sun very low down showed us Henley little altered in outward aspect from what I remembered it. Actual daylight failed us as we passed through the lovely reaches of Wargrave and Shiplake; but the moon rose behind us presently. I should like to have seen with my eyes what success the new order of things had had in getting rid of the sprawling mess with which commercialism had littered the banks of the wide stream about Reading and Caversham: certainly everything smelt too deliciously in the early night for there to be any of the old careless sordidness of so-called manufacture; and in answer to my question as to what sort of a place Reading was, Dick answered: ��O, a nice town enough in its way; mostly rebuilt within the last hundred years; and there are a good many houses, as you can see by the lights just down under the hills yonder. In fact, it is one of the most populous places on the Thames round about here. Keep up your spirits, guest! we are close to our journey��s end for the night. I ought to ask your pardon for not stopping at one of the houses here or higher up; but a friend, who is living in a very pleasant house in the Maple-Durham meads, particularly wanted me and Clara to come and see him on our way up the Thames; and I thought you wouldn��t mind this bit of night travelling.�� He need not have adjured me to keep up my spirits, which were as high as possible; though the strangeness and excitement of the happy and quiet life which I saw everywhere around me was, it is true, a little wearing off, yet a deep content, as different as possible from languid acquiescence, was taking its place, and I was, as it were, really new-born. We landed presently just where I remembered the river making an elbow to the north towards the ancient house of the Blunts; with the wide meadows spreading on the right-hand side, and on the left the long line of beautiful old trees overhanging the water. As we got out of the boat, I said to Dick �� Is it the old house we are going to?�� No,�� he said, ��though that is standing still in green old age, and is well inhabited. I see, by the way, that you know your Thames well. But my friend Walter Allen, who asked me to stop here, lives in a house, not very big, which has been built here lately, because these meadows are so much liked, especially in summer, that there was getting to be rather too much of tenting on the open field; so the parishes here about, who rather objected to that, built three houses between this and Caversham, and quite a large one at Basildon, a little higher up. Look, yonder are the lights of Walter Allen��s house!�� So we walked over the grass of the meadows under a flood of moonlight, and soon came to the house, which was low and built round a quadrangle big enough to get plenty of sunshine in it. Walter Allen, Dick��s friend, was leaning against the jamb of the doorway waiting for us, and took us into the hall without overplus of words. There were not many people in it, as some of the dwellers there were away at the haymaking in the neighbourhood, and some, as Walter told us, were wandering about the meadow enjoying the beautiful moonlit night. Dick��s friend looked to be a man of about forty; tall, black-haired, very kind-looking and thoughtful; but rather to my surprise there was a shade of melancholy on his face, and he seemed a little abstracted and inattentive to our chat, in spite of obvious efforts to listen. Dick looked on him from time to time, and seemed troubled; and at last he said: ��I say, old fellow, if there is anything the matter which we didn��t know of when you wrote to me, don��t you think you had better tell us about it at once? Or else we shall think we have come here at an unlucky time, and are not quite wanted.�� Walter turned red, and seemed to have some difficulty in restraining his tears, but said at last: ��Of course everybody here is very glad to see you, Dick, and your friends; but it is true that we are not at our best, in spite of the fine weather and the glorious hay-crop. We have had a death here.�� Said Dick: ��Well, you should get over that, neighbour: such things must be.�� Yes,�� Walter said, ��but this was a death by violence, and it seems likely to lead to at least one more; and somehow it makes us feel rather shy of one another; and to say the truth, that is one reason why there are so few of us present to-night.�� Tell us the story, Walter,�� said Dick; ��perhaps telling it will help you to shake off your sadness.�� Said Walter: ��Well, I will; and I will make it short enough, though I daresay it might be spun out into a long one, as

Michael Kors handbags

used to be done with such subjects in the old novels. There is a very charming girl here whom we all like, and whom some of us do more than like; and she very naturally liked one of us better than anybody else. And another of us (I won��t name him) got fairly bitten with love-madness, and used to go about making himself as unpleasant as he could �� not of malice prepense, of course; so that the girl, who liked him well enough at first, though she didn��t love him, began fairly to dislike him. Of course, those of us who knew him best �� myself amongst others �� advised him to go away, as he was making matters worse and worse for himself every day. Well, he wouldn��t take our advice (that also, I suppose, was a matter of course), so we had to tell him that he MUST go, or the inevitable sending to Coventry would follow; for his individual trouble had so overmastered him that we felt that WE must go if he did not. ��He took that better than we expected, when something or other �� an interview with the girl, I think, and some hot words with the successful lover following close upon it, threw him quite off his balance; and he got hold of an axe and fell upon his rival when there was no one by; and in the struggle that followed the man attacked, hit him an unlucky blow and killed him. And now the slayer in his turn is so upset that he is like to kill himself; and if he does, the girl will do as much, I fear. And all this we could no more help than the earthquake of the year before last.�� It is very unhappy,�� said Dick; ��but since the man is dead, and cannot be brought to life again, and since the slayer had no malice in him, I cannot for the life of me see why he shouldn��t get over it before long. Besides, it was the right man that was killed and not the wrong. Why should a man brood over a mere accident for ever? And the girl?�� As to her,�� said Walter, ��the whole thing seems to have inspired her with terror rather than grief. What you say about the man is true, or it should be; but then, you see, the excitement and jealousy that was the prelude to this tragedy had made an evil and feverish element round about him, from which he does not seem to be able to escape. However, we have advised him to go away �� in fact, to cross the seas; but he is in such a state that I do not think he CAN go unless someone TAKES him, and I think it will fall to my lot to do so; which is scarcely a cheerful outlook for me.�� O, you will find a certain kind of interest in it,�� said Dick. ��And of course he MUST soon look upon the affair from a reasonable point of view sooner or later.�� Well, at any rate,�� quoth Walter, ��now that I have eased my mind by making you uncomfortable, let us have an end of the subject for the present. Are you going to take your guest to Oxford?�� Why, of course we must pass through it,�� said Dick, smiling, ��as we are going into the upper waters: but I thought that we wouldn��t stop there, or we shall be belated as to the haymaking up our way. So Oxford and my learned lecture on it, all got at second-hand from my old kinsman, must wait till we come down the water a fortnight hence.�� I listened to this story with much surprise, and could not help wondering at first that the man who had slain the other had not been put in custody till it could be proved that he killed his rival in self-defence only. However, the more I thought of it, the plainer it grew to me that no amount of examination of witnesses, who had witnessed nothing but the ill-blood between the two rivals, would have done anything to clear up the case. I could not help thinking, also, that the remorse of this homicide gave point to what old Hammond had said to me about the way in which this strange people dealt with what I had been used to hear called crimes. Truly, the remorse was exaggerated; but it was quite clear that the slayer took the whole consequences of the act upon himself, and did not expect society to whitewash him by punishing him. I had no fear any longer that ��the sacredness of human life�� was likely to suffer amongst my friends from the absence of gallows and prison.Though there were no rough noises to wake me, I could not lie long abed the next morning, where the world seemed so well awake, and, despite the old grumbler, so happy; so I got up, and found that, early as it was, someone had been stirring, since all was trim and in its place in the little parlour, and the table laid for the morning meal. Nobody was afoot in the house as then, however, so I went out a-doors, and after a turn or two round the superabundant garden, I wandered down over the meadow to the river-side, where lay our boat, looking quite familiar and friendly to me. I walked up stream a little, watching the light mist curling up from the river till the sun gained power to draw it all away; saw the bleak speckling the water under the willow boughs, whence the tiny flies they fed on were falling in myriads; heard the great chub splashing here and there at some belated moth or other, and felt almost back again in my boyhood. Then I went back again to the boat, and loitered there a minute or two, and then walked slowly up the meadow towards the little house. I noted now that there were four more houses of about the same size on the

Michael Kors sunglasses

slope away from the river. The meadow in which I was going was not up for hay; but a row of flake-hurdles ran up the slope not far from me on each side, and in the field so parted off from ours on the left they were making hay busily by now, in the simple fashion of the days when I was a boy. My feet turned that way instinctively, as I wanted to see how haymakers looked in these new and better times, and also I rather expected to see Ellen there. I came to the hurdles and stood looking over into the hay-field, and was close to the end of the long line of haymakers who were spreading the low ridges to dry off the night dew. The majority of these were young women clad much like Ellen last night, though not mostly in silk, but in light woollen mostly gaily embroidered; the men being all clad in white flannel embroidered in bright colours. The meadow looked like a gigantic tulip-bed because of them. All hands were working deliberately but well and steadily, though they were as noisy with merry talk as a grove of autumn starlings. Half a dozen of them, men and women, came up to me and shook hands, gave me the sele of the morning, and asked a few questions as to whence and whither, and wishing me good luck, went back to their work. Ellen, to my disappointment, was not amongst them, but presently I saw a light figure come out of the hay-field higher up the slope, and make for our house; and that was Ellen, holding a basket in her hand. But before she had come to the garden gate, out came Dick and Clara, who, after a minute��s pause, came down to meet me, leaving Ellen in the garden; then we three went down to the boat, talking mere morning prattle. We stayed there a little, Dick arranging some of the matters in her, for we had only taken up to the house such things as we thought the dew might damage; and then we went toward the house again; but when we came near the garden, Dick stopped us by laying a hand on my arm and said, �� Just look a moment.�� I looked, and over the low hedge saw Ellen, shading her eyes against the sun as she looked toward the hay-field, a light wind stirring in her tawny hair, her eyes like light jewels amidst her sunburnt face, which looked as if the warmth of the sun were yet in it. ��Look, guest,�� said Dick; ��doesn��t it all look like one of those very stories out of Grimm that we were talking about up in Bloomsbury? Here are we two lovers wandering about the world, and we have come to a fairy garden, and there is the very fairy herself amidst of it: I wonder what she will do for us.�� Said Clara demurely, but not stiffly: ��Is she a good fairy, Dick?�� O, yes,�� said he; ��and according to the card, she would do better, if it were not for the gnome or wood-spirit, our grumbling friend of last night.�� We laughed at this; and I said, ��I hope you see that you have left me out of the tale.�� Well,�� said he, ��that��s true. You had better consider that you have got the cap of darkness, and are seeing everything, yourself invisible.�� That touched me on my weak side of not feeling sure of my position in this beautiful new country; so in order not to make matters worse, I held my tongue, and we all went into the garden and up to the house together. I noticed by the way that Clara must really rather have felt the contrast between herself as a town madam and this piece of the summer country that we all admired so, for she had rather dressed after Ellen that morning as to thinness and scantiness, and went barefoot also, except for light sandals. The old man greeted us kindly in the parlour, and said: ��Well, guests, so you have been looking about to search into the nakedness of the land: I suppose your illusions of last night have given way a bit before the morning light? Do you still like, it, eh?�� Very much,�� said I, doggedly; ��it is one of the prettiest places on the lower Thames.�� Oho!�� said he; ��so you know the Thames, do you?�� I reddened, for I saw Dick and Clara looking at me, and scarcely knew what to say. However, since I had said in our early intercourse with my Hammersmith friends that I had known Epping Forest, I thought a hasty generalisation might be better in avoiding complications than a downright lie; so I said ��

It was easy to see that the boom and inflation period had been based at first on

new balance outlet online

the extraordinary growth of the country through the immigration and trade that had followed the Civil War. But the Franco�CGerman war had wasted wealth prodigiously,

Moncler Outlet

deranged trade too, and diverted commerce into new channels. France and then England first felt the shock : London had to call in monies lent

to American railways and other enterprises. Bit by bit even American optimism was overcome for immigration in 1871 and 1872 fell off greatly and the

chanel outlet

foreign calls for cash exhausted our banks. The crash came in 1873; nothing like it was seen again in these States till the slump of

1907 which led to the founding of the Federal Reserve Bank. Willie��s fortune melted almost in a moment: this mortgage and that, had to be met

and could only be met by forced sales with no buyers except at minimum values. When I talked to him, he was almost in despair;

he was ruined. He told me then he had drawn all he could from my father: naturally I promised to help him; but first I

to the skies and indeed she deserved it; short green sleeves, I remember, set off her exquisite, plump, white arms. I promised her some books

and made her say she would read them; indeed I was astonished by the warmth of her gratitude: she told me it was sweet of

me on my feet again in comfort. I should now tell of Willie��s misadventure with his car-load of chickens: it suffices here to say that he

was cheated by his purchaser and that I never saw a dollar of all I had loaned him. Looking back I understand that it was probably

the slump of 1873 that induced the Mayhews to go to Denver; but after they left, I was at a loose end for some months.

I could not get work though I tried everything: I was met everywhere with the excuse: ��hard times: hard times!�� At length I took a

place as waiter in the Eldridge House, the only job I could find that left most of the forenoon free for the University. Smith disliked

christian louboutin shoes

this new departure of mine and told me he would soon find me a better post, and Mrs. Gregory was disgusted and resentful �� partly

prada outlet online

out of snobbishness, I think. From this time on I felt her against me and gradually she undermined my influence with Kate: I soon knew

Louis Vuitton Outlet Handbags

I had fallen in public esteem too, but not for long. One day in the fall Smith introduced me to a Mr. Rankin, the cashier of

High Heel Shoes

the First National Bank, who handed over to me at once the letting of Liberty Hall, the one hall in the town large enough to

Louis Vuitton Handbags

accomodate a thousand people: it had a stage, too, and so could be used for theatrical performances. I gave up my work in the Eldridge

barbour.com

House and instead used to sit in the box-office of the Hall from two every afternoon till seven, and did my best to let it

Louis Vuitton Bags

advantageously to the advance agents of the various travelling shows or lecturers. I received sixty dollars a month for this work and one day got

Louis Vuitton Purses

an experience which has modified my whole life, for it taught me how money is made in this world and can be made by any

intelligent man. One afternoon the advance agent of the Hatherly Minstrels came into my room and threw down his card. ��This old one-hoss shay of a town��,

he cried, ��should wear grave-clothes.�� What��s the matter?�� I asked. ��Matter!�� he repeated scornfully, ��I don��t believe there��s a place in the hull God d ��

would have it I had been at the University till late that day and had not gone to the Gregory��s for dinner: I was healthily

do me the honor of being my guest, I��ll take you to a good porterhouse steak at least�� and I took him across to the

kate spade outlet

Eldridge House, a short distance away, leaving a young friend, Will Thomson, a doctor��s son whom I knew, in my place. I gave Dingwall the best

dinner I could and drew him out: he was, indeed, ��a live wire�� as he phrased it and suddenly inspired by his optimism the idea

true religion brand jeans

came to me that if he would deposit the ten thousand dollars he had talked of, I could put up hoardings on all the vacant

lots in Massachusetts Street and make a good thing ont of exhibiting the bills of the various travelling shows that visited Lawrence. It wasn��t the

louis vuitton handbags

first time I had been asked to help advertise this or that entertainment. I put forward my idea timidly, yet Dingwall took it up at

Kate Spade Online Sale

once: ��if you can find good security, or a good surety��, he said, ��I��ll leave five thousand dollars with you: I��ve no right to, but

Christian Louboutin Shoes Outlet

I like you and I��ll risk it.�� I took him across to Mr. Rankin, the banker, who listened to me benevolently and finally said: ��Yes��, he��d go

surety that I��d exhibit a thousand bills for a fortnight all down the chief street on hoardings to be erected at once, on condition that

Louis Vuitton Outlet Online

Mr. Dingwall paid five thousand dollars in advance, and he gave Mr. Dingwall a letter to that effect and then told me pleasantly he held

gucci purses

five thousand and some odd dollars at my service. Dingwall took the next train west, leaving me to put up hoardings in a month, after getting

Authentic Louis Vuitton Bags

first of all the permission from the lot-owners. To cut a long story short, I got the permission from a hundred lot-owners in a week

christian louboutin outlet

through my brother Willie, who as an estate agent knew them all. Then I made a contract with a little English carpenter and put the

gucci outlet

hoardings up and got the bills all posted three days before the date agreed upon. Hatherly��s Minstrels had a great fortnight and everyone was content.

louis vuitton outlet

From that time on, I drew about fifty dollars a week as my profit from letting the hoardings, in spite of the slump. Suddenly Smith got

a bad cold: Lawrence is nearly a thousand feet above sea-level and in winter can be as icy as the Pole. He began to cough,

Louis Vuitton Outlet

a nasty, little, dry hacking cough: I persuaded him to see a doctor and then to have a consultation, the result being that the specialists

michael kors outlet online

all diagnosed tuberculosis and recommended immediate change to the milder east. For some reason or other, I believe because an editorial post on the ��Press��

Louis Vuitton Sunglasses

in Philadelphia was offered to him, he left Lawrence hastily and took up his residence in the Quaker City. His departure had notable results for me.

kate spade bags

First of all, the spiritual effect astonished me. As soon as he went, I began going over all he had taught me, especially in economics

Christian Louboutin online store

and metaphysics: bit by bit I fame to the conclusion that his Marxian communism was only half the truth and probably the least important half:

Louis Vuitton Bags

his Hegelianism, too, which I have hardly mentioned, was pure moonshine in my opinion: extremely beautiful at moments, as the moon is when silvering purple

kate spade new york

clouds: ��history is the development of the Spirit in time: Nature is the projection of the idea in space��, sounds wonderful; but it��s moon-shiney, and

kate spade online sale

not very enlightening. In the first three months of Smith��s absence, my own individuality sprang upright, like a sapling that has long been bent almost to

Moncler Outlet Online

breaking, so to speak, by a superincumbent weight and I began to grow with a sort of renewed youth. Now for the first time, when

Louis Vuitton Purses

about nineteen years of age, I came to self-consciousness as Frank Harris and began to deal with life in my own way and under this

true religion outlet online

name, Frank. As soon as I returned from the Eldridge House to lodge with the Gregorys again, Kate showed herself just as kind to me as

cheap louis vuitton bags

ever; she would come to my bedroom twice or thrice a week and was always welcome; but again and again I felt that her mother was intent on keeping us apart as much as possible and at length she arranged that Kate should pay a visit to some English friends who were settled in Kansas City. Kate postponed the visit several times: but at length

Michael Kors Outlet Handbags

she had to yield to her mother��s entreaties and advice. By this time my hoardings were bringing me in a good deal and so I proposed to accompany Kate and spend the whole night with her in some Kansas City hotel. We got to the hotel about

in my throat: Kate, too, was ��all of a quiver�� as she confessed to me a little later; but what a night we had! Kate

Kate Spade New York

resolved to show me all her love and gave herself to me passionately; but she never took the initiative, I noticed, as Mrs. Mayhew used

to do. At first I kissed her and talked a little; but as soon as she had arranged her things, I began to undress her:

when her chemise fell, all glowing with my caressings she asked: ��You really like that?�� and she put her hand over her sex, standing there

naked like a Greek Venus. ��Naturally��, I exclaimed, ��and these too�� and I kissed and sucked her nipples till they grew rosy-red. ��Is it possible to

do it �� standing up?�� she asked in some confusion. ��Of course��, I replied, ��let��s try! But what put that into your head?�� I saw a

Louis Vuitton Outlet

man and girl once behind the Church near our house!�� she whispered, ��and I wondered how �� and she blushed rosily. As I got

Kate Spade Bags

into her, I felt difficulty: her pussy was really small and this time seemed hot and dry: I felt her wince and at once withdrew:

Christian Louboutin shoes online

��does it still hurt, Kate?�� I asked. ��A little at first,�� she replied; ��but I don��t mind��, she hastened to add, ��I like the pain!�� By way

of answer I slipped my arms around her under her bottom and carried her to the bed: ��I will not hurt you tonight��, I said,

Louis Vuitton purses

��I��ll make you give down your love�� juice first and then there��ll be no pain��. A few kisses and she sighed: ��I��m wet now��, and

cheap nike shoes

I got into bed and put my sex against hers. ��I��m going to leave everything to you��, I said, ��but please don��t hurt yourself��. She

put her hand down to my sex and guided it in sighing a little with satisfaction as bit by bit it slipped home.

It was easy to see that the boom and inflation period had been based at first on the extraordinary growth of the country through the immigration and trade that had followed

Christian Louboutin online store

the Civil War. But the Franco�CGerman war had wasted wealth prodigiously, deranged trade too, and diverted commerce into new channels. France and then England first

nba jerseys online sale

felt the shock : London had to call in monies lent to American railways and other enterprises. Bit by bit even American optimism was overcome

kate spade new york

for immigration in 1871 and 1872 fell off greatly and the foreign calls for cash exhausted our banks. The crash came in 1873; nothing like

it was seen again in these States till the slump of 1907 which led to the founding of the Federal Reserve Bank. Willie��s fortune melted almost

in a moment: this mortgage and that, had to be met and could only be met by forced sales with no buyers except at minimum

values. When I talked to him, he was almost in despair; no money: no property: all lost; the product of three years�� hard work and

Louis Vuitton Bags

successful speculation all swept away. Could I help him? If not, he was ruined. He told me then he had drawn all he could from

Moncler Outlet Online

my father: naturally I promised to help him; but first I had to pay the Gregorys and to my astonishment he begged me to let

him have the money instead. ��Mrs. Gregory and all of ��em like you��, he pleaded, ��they can wait, I cannot; I know of a purchase

kate spade bags

that could be made that would make me rich again!�� I realised then that he was selfish through and through, conscienceless in egotistic greed. I gave

new balance outlet online

up my faint hope that he would ever repay me: hence-forth he was a stranger to me and one that I did not even respect,

Louis Vuitton

though he had some fine, ingratiating qualities. I left him to walk across the river and in a few blocks met Rose. She looked prettier than

Kate Spade Outlet Online

ever and I turned and walked with her, praising her beauty to the skies and indeed she deserved it; short green sleeves, I remember, set

Christian Louboutin Outlet

off her exquisite, plump, white arms. I promised her some books and made her say she would read them; indeed I was astonished by the

true religion jeans

warmth of her gratitude: she told me it was sweet of me, gave me her eyes and we parted the best of friends, with just

katespade.com

a hint of warmer relationship in the future. That evening I paid the Gregorys, Willie��s debt and my own and �� did not send him the

Kate Spade New York

balance of what I possessed as I had promised; but instead, a letter telling him I had prefered to cancel his debt to the Gregorys. Next

day he came and assured me he had promised monies on the strength of my promise, had bought a hundred crates, too, of chickens to
