I know almost for certain that the unmistakable symptoms of the mental condition which brought poor Andrey Antonovitch to a well-known establishment in Switzerland, where, I am told, he is now regaining his energies, were first apparent on that fatal morning.
I introduce this fact to illustrate the difficulties put in the way of enterprise by our intelligent government." Shadursky did not greatly occupy himself with serious questions and he was totally ignorant of all details of financial undertakings. It was, therefore, perfectly easy for Sergei Antonovitch to assume a tone of solid, practical sense, which imposed completely on the young prince.
The factory has been cleaned; I gave the order and they've cleaned it." "And the workmen are in rebellion. They ought to be flogged, every one of them; that would be the end of it." "In rebellion? That's nonsense; I gave the order and they've cleaned it." "Ech, you are soft, Andrey Antonovitch!"
The ball was arranged with a view to the fire...." She screamed and fell into a swoon. We carried the unhappy woman out of this hell to her carriage, but she only regained consciousness as she reached the house, and her first utterance was about Andrey Antonovitch again. With the destruction of all her fancies, the only thing left in her mind was Andrey Antonovitch. They sent for a doctor.
But do you know, at that factory the workpeople will soon be writing manifestoes for themselves." "What do you mean?" Von Lembke stared at him severely. "What I say. You've only to look at them. You are too soft, Andrey Antonovitch; you write novels. But this has to be handled in the good old way." "What do you mean by the good old way? What do you mean by advising me?
It appeared as though Ivan Antonovitch had not heard, so completely did he bury himself in his papers and return no reply. Instantly it became plain that HE at least was of an age of discretion, and not one of your jejune chatterboxes and harum-scarums; for, although his hair was still thick and black, he had long ago passed his fortieth year.
The luckless Andrey Antonovitch had been so greatly upset during the last few days that he had begun to be secretly jealous of his wife and Pyotr Stepanovitch. In solitude, especially at night, he spent some very disagreeable moments.
All eyes turned with equal eagerness to Yulia Mihailovna. Of course no one has the right to expect from me an exact account in regard to one point: that is a mysterious, a feminine question. But I only know one thing: on the evening of the previous day she had gone into Andrey Antonovitch's study and was there with him till long after midnight. Andrey Antonovitch was comforted and forgiven.
Let me tell you, I know the names of four of these rascals and that I am going out of my mind, hopelessly, hopelessly!..." Oh, how can I describe the effect of this on Andrey Antonovitch!
I don't know what Yulia Mihailovna managed to do, but five minutes later she came back, doing her utmost to appear composed. She replied evasively that Andrey Antonovitch was rather excited, but that it meant nothing, that he had been like that from a child, that she knew "much better," and that the fete next day would certainly cheer him up.
