CHAPTER IX.
CHAPTER VIII.
The ins and outs and general
details of Gwen’s plan of cam
paign would in no wise interest
much less edify the moral read
er. It is enough that the plan
was a brilliant success, and its
organization and execution
would have done credit to the
Prince of Darkness himself.
Her tactics were by no means
volcanic, they were resolute,
gradual, and in a way scrip
tural, line upon line, precept
upon precept, first the seed,
then the blade, then the full
corn in the ear. When the ini
tial steps were passed, just leav
ing the air wel! charged with
vague apprehension, and the
minds of men ripe for some new
development, active measures
set in, in a careless, unconscious
sort of way, as if the divine or
der of things had just received
a passing jar, no more, but then
this jar continued and increased
and grew in dimensions till the
very bones of the jarred shook
in their skins, and it was as
much as their souls could do to
hold themselves in their bodies.
Three months after the plan’s
inception, the amazing going-on
of Dacre, the wild originality of
his pranks, the consistent sus
tained diableie of his outbursts,
the terrible all-pervadingness
of his personality, had succeed
ed in completely upheaving the
souls of his parents and filling
the entire household with a
fearful sense of insecurity, as
of a community conscious of the
presence amongst them of an
invisible infernal machine, that
moves by some hidden power,
all over, everywhere, and can
neither be caught nor compass
ed.
Mr. and Mrs. Fellowes, who
kept a close eye on the affairs
of the Hall children, had felt
now for some time that there
was too much subtlety in this
departure of Dacre’s to be all
his own.
“The days of devil possession
a-e gone; I could swear it's
Gwen,” said Mrs. Fellowes one
day, smiting her small hands
together and dropping a child’s
petticoat on which she was sew
ing a button.
“I’ve been thinking so for
some time,” said her husband,
“all the same, I hardly see
where the ‘swear’ mends mat
ters.”
“Oh, never mind! When a
woman’s perturbed, she often
relapses into original sin, it’s a
full year since I ‘reckoned’—
‘swear’ at least is cosmopolitan.
I’ll go up this minute and get
to the truth of this, Gwen hasn't
been near me for a fortnight,
and I’ve been so busy, you see,
I couldn’t go near them.”
“I shall go too, I must get a
subscription for those miserable
Gows from Waring, but, little
woman, hadn’t you better lie
down? Ater five nights up with
Jim Brown, even you must
want rest!”
“Lie down! No, no; with this
on my mind, why I couldn’t
rest a minute.”
After a rather ineffectual at
tempt to bring Mrs. Waring to
a decent flesh and blood consis
tency, Mrs. Fellowes retreated
to the school room.
“She grows worse and worse,”
she muttered, as she let out
some of her feelings in a sharp
rap on the door.
Mr. Gedge, the present in
structor, was not her husband’s
choice, he was launched on the
children by a well-meaning
uncle of Mrs. Waring’s, who
from time to time swooped down
on the family in a protective, if
rather hawk-like fashion, and
invariably set some reform
afloat among man or beast.
In this last visit lie had let
Gedge loose in the school-room.
The man was as little fitted to
deal with the plan’s ramifica
tions as a babe unborn.
When Mrs. Fellowes went in
she got a howl of welcome from
Dacre, Gwen gave her only a
quiet handshake, but the warm
light that flashed into her cold
eyes told more than any howl.
Mr. Gedge stood up wearily and
looked pleased.
“Do sit down,” said he cast
ing a furtive, fearful glance on
Dacre.
He was in constant horrid
dread of a new sensation, they
were so diverse, so swift in suc
cession, one never knew when
one might not come on, and it
might be embarrassing if set
going in the presence of a lady.
Dacre, however, his familiar
being otherwise engaged, was
J uiescent, and Gedge breathed
reer.
“May I have Gwen for the af
ternoon?” asked Mrs. Fellowes.
She was amazed to see the
hesitation on Gwen’s face and
the actual look of dismay on
Dacre’s, but she speedily fath
omed the reason.
“I knew it,” she said to her-
gelf, "Gwen is the mover in the
whole business.” Then aloud,
“Gwen, you will come, dear,
Mr. Gedge’s eyes have said
‘yes’ already.”
Mr. Gedge had a lively though
bashful admiration for the little
American, he beamed his assent
in quite a sprightly way. “It
will be one less to cope with,”
he reflected, “and I can perhaps
get my poor Amy’s letter finish
ed.”
The devil, in a specially evil
moment had revealed to Mr.
Gedge’s pupils the existence of
this sweet young woman, and
had thereby added another hun
dred weight to the millstone al
ready encircling the neck of her
affianced.
Mrs. Fellowes looked sudden
sympathy at the young man,
then with twinkling eyes at his
charges, he seemed so ludicrous
ly out of proportion to his task.
“Poor thing’” She thought
it with such amused vehemence
it almost got spoken aloud.
“Poor thing, you shall have a
peaceful afternoon for once!”
“Mr. Gedge, do give me
Dacre too, do, just for one day!
He shall go for a ride with Mr.
Fellowes.”
“Ohj golly!” muttered Dacre,
dancing in his glee.
Gwen’s face grew brilliant
with joy, she could now go with
an easy conscience, she couldn’t
by any possibility have left
Dacre alone, he was too utterly
“an ass.” She could now have
a whole long afternoon to be
happy in; she needn’t think
once all the time, only just
laugh and play and let herself
be kissed—she never by any
chance ventured a kiss on her
own account—and she would
feel Mrs. Fellowes’ soft hands
on her head—she always brush
ed her hair for tea—and hear
her soft voice, and it would stay
in her ears making little tunes;
and the Rector, he would be
good too, and remain in the
drawing-room after tea—he al
ways did when they came—he
was always kind and he told
such funny stories.
Gwen’s contained joy broke
out in a prolonged “Oh!”
Mrs. Fellowes looked rapidly
round the handsome room and
out into the Park, the finest in
the country, and back to the
child’s face.
“It is abominable, abomin
able,” she thought angrily,
“just to be away from the place
for a few hours transforms the
child, she is simply beautiful
this minute with that look—oh,
it is brutal! Gwen, love, run
at once and put on your things,
and, Dacre, run down in the
porch, I’ll tell Mr. Fellowes you
are going with him.”
As soon as the children were
gone she said kindly:
“Mr. Gedge, you’ll have a re
spite any way.”
“Mrs. Fellowes,” he burst
out, “I am coming to set the
rector, I have endeavored, and
I truly hope conscientiously, to
do my duty, but I find my pres
ent position altogether unten
able. I am not a very strong
man, Mrs. Fellowes, ai d I find
this life is fast undermining my
constitution.”
He paused for a moment; then
he went on hurriedlv, in a sud
den impulse of confidence:
“Mrs. Fellowes, forgive my
troubling you with my affairs
but you are so very kind,—I
have hopes, very dear hopes,
and from various strange sen
sations in the region of my
heart when my struggles with
Dacre have been specially try
ing and prolonged, I have rea
son to fear some fundamental
lesion of the organ.”
Mr. Gedge had just been read
ing up the heart in some medi
cal journal, he had also lately
ascertained that his maternal
aunt had Aie&ot Angina-pector
is so he was naturally upset in
his mind.
“If one has hopes, Mrs. Fel
lowes,” he went on sadly, “one’s
duty seems to be to guard against
anything that must interfere
with such hopes, always sup
posing them to be lawful and
right.”
“Indeed, I quite agree with
you,” said Mrs. Fellowes with
much heartiness, and with an
unholy tendency to laughter,
“I agree with you, and no doubt
as is the way of such things,
J our hopes are bound up in the
opes and happiness of another.
For her sake alone you must
consider your position serious
ly.”
“Yes, I will turn my thoughts
to some other sphere of action,
but before I leave here,” he
added with solemn resolve, “1
deem it my duty to my employ
ers to represent to them the ur
gent advisability of sending my
elder pupil to a public school—I
know you agree with me in this,
Mrs. Fellowes?”
“Agree with you! why, we
have been fighting for it for
years.”
“Then I mav rely on vou and
your husband’s help in this mat
ter?” ho asked, looking rather
askew admiration at her
through his eyeglasses.
He had received a slight in
jury to one eye in his youth,
and according to Dacre it was
now “a game one.”
The decree had gone forth,
and Dacre was to go to Eton.
Ancestral taint and sisterly
guile had won the day, though
not without a tough struggle.
The idea of home culture, vague
and ill-defined as it was, died
hard, and Mr. and Mrs. Waring
still bemoaned their fate daily
in the intervals of work.
They were row much disturb
ed in their minds concerning
the plan of religion which they
had conceived in the tender
youth of their offspring, and
which had been worked up to
with rather more consistency
than usually characterized ihose
plans of theirs that dealt with
outside and minor matters.
That it should have occurred
to Henry and Grace Waring
was the most remarkable part
of this plan. They both looked
upon religion as they did upon
art, as a thing apart and on a
somewhat low level, to be con
sidered in leisure hours. In
some phases of mind they might
indeed almost have been said to
glory in it. and to rejoice that
the ages should own such a her
itage, just as one might rejoice
in the work of a great master.
They were, of course, both too
appreciative of goo<Hiterature
to have neglected the Bible,
they knew every twist and turn
in it as they did of the Koran
and the Brabminic Vedas.
As for doubts and things of
that sort, they never, so to
speak, went in for them, their
minds were not of that order.
In the same way the truths or
the untruths of Christianity
seemed to them an interesting
enough study between hours.
In Mrs. Waring’s case perhaps,
they appealed fitfully to some
part of herself she never quite
understood, that same senti
mental part that often suffered
a keen stab,—for instance in
the case of the Rectory babies,
and sometimes from a strange
look in Gwen’s face. But she
had almost ceased to speculate
upon these odd sensations, and
was inclined to put them down
to a strain of puritan blood that
had somehow trickled into the
more vigorous fluid of her fight
ing forebears, which perhaps
might almost account for her
preference for Christianity over
other creeds.
It will be seen that the re
ception or rejection of Christ
ianity by their children, was a
matter of no vital importance
to these parents. They were,
however, intensely interested
in the result itself, that was
quite another thing; the phases
of mind the function must un
fold seemed certainly a subject
worth research, and filled them
with the keenest interest.
You are ouite sure, dearest,”
said Mr. Waring, a few days
before Dacre’s departure was to
take place, “that Mary has not
tampered with the minds of our
children.”
“I am certain, quite certain.
She has certainly seemed to re
sent my orders in this matter,
but she has not disobeyed them.”
Mrs. Waring sat down and
tried to take up the thread of
her thoughts, but it was broken
again in a minute by Mr. War
ing pushing back his chair sud
denly, and looking at her in a
disturbed, restless way. She
went over, laid her hand on his
shoulder and looked anxiously
into his face.
“Are you troubled, love, can
I not help you?”
“I should be glad my Grace
if I felt more convinced that
the minds of our children are
really a blank as far as any
knowledge of religion goes.”
“I am sure Mr. and Mrs. Fel
lowes—”
“Dearest, the idea is revolt
ing! And his wife! She is your
friend, that is sufficient.” He
bowed as his grandfather, the
courtliest man in a courtly court
might have done. “But I fear
that when very youngthechild-
ren may have received foreign
impressions, the class that peo
ple the stableyard are often
quite versed in what they term
‘the truths of the Gospel.’ ”
“But so long ago?”
“Not so very long ago after
all, and impressions are most
tenacious things, more especial
ly erroneous ones. Does the
fact not hamper us daily, dear
est? Even this moment,” he
went on musingly, “after all
these years, I can recollect
praying at my mother’s knee
with a quite astonishing fervor,
which now seems next to rea
sonless, and yet I doubt if the
impression of that fervor will
ever leave me.”
“We can only hope, dearest,”
she said.
Her husband’s fear depressed
her, she was feeling just then,
and rather to her cost, how
very remarkably clinging old
impressions were. They were
hovering round her at that very
moment, and entwining her in
a maze of the old dead visions
of dead days, when she was a
child herself and wore long
lav.n nightgowns with frilled
sashes, and said prayers. She
went over to the fire to make it
up and ended by putting it out.
“Oh, Henry,” she said at last,
from tne hearthrug, shivering
a little, “what if, after all, we
might just as well have allowed
our children to run along the
common groove like those very
fat children of Mrs. Manners’,—
they seem wholesome and not
devoid of intelligence. And
then they are handsome and
well grown, yet the boy is ten
and not even in Latin; Mrs.
Manners considers that in ten
years the fact will make no
difference in his career. On the
contrary look at Dacre, think
of the load of anxiety and
thought we have expended upon
him and yet—” She broke off
sadly.
Her husband regarded her for
a minute with sympathizing
eyes.
“Dearest,” he said at last
softly, “you are apt to forget
the fact that our poor Dacre is
—I hate to hurt vou, dear, but
you know it—he is most unfort
unately a throwing-back, and
must follow the fate of his kind.
He must enter the army,—it is
deplorable, but so it must be.”
“The army!” murmured the
small woman wringing her
hands softly, “it is sad, it is
hard on you. I do think, dear
est, we might have been more
successful in our children.”
“Our child,” interrupted her
husband.
Her eyes clouded and she re
peated hesitatingly, “Yes. our
child—Gwen’s abilities are con
siderable.”
“Yes,” said her father with
unmixed satisfaction, “my hopes
rest on Gwen, her abilities are
indeed most gratifying.”
For one fleeting moment,
which she blotted from her
memory with shame, her moth
er almost wished they weren’t;
she might then be easier to get
some knowledge of, and not be
quite so alarming.
