Her eyes had dilated a little as he spoke, and a certain faint shock had passed across her face.

All day long, from heavy February skies, drizzling rain had fallen, and now that evening was closing in it was falling faster than ever. There was no break to be seen anywhere in the grey clouds, and daylight was giving place at least an hour before its time to that most dreary twilight which is, in part, the coming on of evening and, in part, the darkness of a rainy day. It was only four oclock, and to the station -master of the little station at Thornsdyke an official whose conclusions VOL. I.

From a street of houses the uniform white paint of which has taken on varying shades of grime, from white paving-stones and a narrow road, it is not possible, granted any quantity of sunshine, to produce colour; but it is possible to produce glare. In an atmosphere so laden with smoke and dust that even the sky looks pale and dirty it is not possible to produce exhilaration; but it is possible to produce almost unlimited oppression. Foiled on the one side the full power of the sun may be concentrated on the other, and natures great magician become a tyrant. VOL. II. .

Not illustrated. 1894 Excerpt: ...of "the affair," as she called it. It affected her evidently in only one way, she looked at it from only one point of view: as something to be finished up, put away, buried out of sight. It was the thought of delay in the doing of this, only, that appeared to torture her; of the affair itself with all its terrible significance, its inevitable consequences, she had, as far as Falconer could divine, no adequate conception. The girl must be bought off; must be sent away; must be sent right out of the country, in case--and here came the one agonised sense of a possible consequence which Falconer could detect--in case Julian should marry her after all! It was evidently the haunting terror of such a contingency which had driven her to send for Falconer. It was obvious, though she seemed to be striving hard to conceal it even from herself, that she could not trust her son; that she could find no rest in the promise she had wrung from him. What she had to say to Falconer was, in effect, that some one else must see the girl; the arrangement to be surely effected must be brought about by. a third person who would set about the business promptly and act decidedly. It was this service which she wanted of Falconer, and Falconer, after a moment's grave self-communing, agreed to render it. He was as far removed from sympathy with her in this her hard, agonised reality as he had been from the artificial woman of the previous months, or from the real woman of eighteen years before. He considered her point of view in the present instance absolutely revolting in her. But no man could question the practical sense of what she said, or the advisability of the course she proposed, and his conception of his obligations as her sole male relative and trustee was too intima...

Excerpt from A Valiant Ignorance, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel The oppressive autumn weather continued for the next week and more, but the atmosphere in the house at Chelsea gradually cleared; at least, the electrical disturbances which had, as a matter of fact, culminated in Julian's departure for the club, subsided. As the days went on, Julian gradually recovered his spirits. His temper, which had given way so suddenly and completely under the strain put upon it by the unprecedented thwarting to which he had been subjected, recovered its careless easiness. The injured expression of moodiness disappeared wholly from his face, and his manner resumed its buoyancy. Nevertheless, the life of the present autumn was by no means the life of the past spring.
