IV. The German commentators argue from the silence of the other Evangelists: Dean Alford replies by denying that this silence is any argument: but I would answer, that on a matter which the other three writers must have known to have been of such intense interest, their silence is a conclusive proof either of their ignorance or their indolence as historians.
After an early breakfast the next morning, the young man bade his aunt good-by. With moist eyes, she said, "Alford, I am losing you, just as I find how much you are and can be to me." "No, aunty dear; my course will prove best for us both," he replied, gently.
The tempest-tossed soul was at rest; above were the pitying Angels' wings, and over all the solemn hush of Death. From Miss Rose Dacre, Southampton, to Miss Amy Conway, 30, Alford Street, Park Lane. YACHT "MARIE," SOUTHAMPTON. July 15th, 1901. Dearest Amy, Here am I on Jack's yacht, anchored in Southampton waters. The weather is perfect, and I am having a very good time.
The long expanse of dark, cement walk which flanked each side of the snowy road was coated with ice and made walking for pedestrians a matter of some danger. As he jerked his tie into position, Perry Alford shot past on his skates, and he hurried down to breakfast. He'd have a little of that sport before school, himself. But as he rose joyously from the table, he stopped short.
"You're letting your rarebit get cold!" He laughed himself, now, a great laugh of relaxation, of relief. "Not the least in the world! She was not exactly a phantom of delight." "Oh, thank you, Mr. Alford. Now, it's your tea's getting cold." They laughed together, and he gave himself to his victual with a relish that she visibly enjoyed.
It is no wonder, then, that even an enemy wrote of her as "the masterpiece of women's wit," or that her husband followed her lead with a devotion that never swerved. She had married him at Alford in Lincolnshire, and both were members of Mr. Cotton's congregation at Boston. Mr. Hutchinson's standing among his Puritan contemporaries was of the highest.
Alford, the servant there, tells me that the poor girl will go a whole day and never open her mouth. She's like one dumb!" "How very curious!" I remarked. "I wonder what kind of shock it was that caused such a change in her? Was she quite all right before November?" "Perfectly. She was a bright clever girl, and used often to come in here to me for chocolate and cakes.
I don't think there's six girls in East Westland who know how to dance, but there must be a lot in Alford, and the parlor is big enough for 'most everything. She shall have every mite as much going on as she would have in New York. She sha'n't miss anything.
"I know you do," Henry would say, grudgingly, "and I suppose maybe a little exercise is good for you; but those fellers from Alford who come over here don't have to work, and as for Guy Lawson, the boss's son, he's a fool! He couldn't earn his bread and butter to save his life, except on the road digging like a common laborer. Playing golf! Playing! H'm!"
"Better luck than I dreamed of," he thought. "I shall take them both; but I now shall have to borrow a horse of Alford;" and he glided away, secured an animal from the stable, and tied it near his own. In a short time he was back at his post of observation. It had now become evident that no one even imagined that there was danger while such a storm was raging.
