Background
BROOKE, Emma Frances Descended from old yeoman family on the mother’s side, and on the father’s side an old Yorkshire family.
(He was a short, square man with great shoulders; and he s...)
He was a short, square man with great shoulders; and he stood with his hands thrust into the pockets of his coat, and with his legs a little apart; he had forgotten to turn down his trousers before coming into the room, so that a pair of large strong boots, much splashed with mud, planted themselves only too visibly upon the carpet. He was not a West End doctor, and had made his way to this West End mansion by short stages in omnibuses and by short stages on foot. His practice lay among the sores which devour the flesh of Lazarus. Most of his hours were spent in those hospitals where the maimed worker seeks a little respite from misery before he passes from the cruelty of the world, and much of his leisure in gratuitous labor among the fetid dens of the poor. He seemed in his own eyes to be as a gatherer who binds together perpetually fallen sheaves of blighted corn, and his constant fight with death had brought a grim look into his face. But not into his eyes. (Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)

Excerpt from Life the Accuser, Vol. 3 of 3: A Novel The ease of mental slumber came to Norman as the days went on, and the surface peace with them. He was not bound to question Constantia; the home was not the nest of joy it had been, but it was possible to accommodate himself to the change, to accept the hollow order in the house and waive the rest - seeing he had his resources outside. Thus he succumbed to a coarser form of the temptation which had assailed Constantia, almost without a struggle.

(This book was originally published prior to 1923, and rep...)
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

The Armstrong family, witji one exception, accepted their own theory of existence without misgiving. The exception rebelled. Unfortunately this single enterprise was strategically ill-managed and returned upon the rebel in suffocating bitterness of heart, against which there was no resource save in private explosions whose point was lost to the world. This is how it came about that on a fine summer afternoon in the year 1876, Eliza A rmstrong, a girl of something over twenty years of age, declared to herself with every evidence of sincerity, that life was not worth living, and that she did not know why she had been born.
