Beals would say if he saw you in your silk dress; why, I don't know but he would throw you out of the window," she told her doll once. Ellen did not feel any difference in her way of living after her father was out of work. "She ain't goin' to be stented in one single thing; remember that," Andrew told Fanny, with angry emphasis.
The deals went through my office mostly; but the road is behind me, of course.... They all shared, from Beals down." At last they were at the heart of the matter, he challenging her criticism, she frightened at the cloudy places in her husband's soul that she had penetrated, when a servant interrupted them, saying that Lane was wanted at the telephone.
Near the entrance the Colonel, with his old friends Beals and Senator Thomas, was surveying the breakfast scene, a contented smile on his kind face, as he murmured assentingly, "So so." He and the Senator had served in the same regiment during the War, Price retiring as Colonel and the Senator as Captain; while the bridegroom's father, Tyringham Lane, had been the regimental surgeon.
I answered 42 and he said there was 63 or 64 and then we both counted again and agreed the number being 43. Then the Moderator was about to count the number of votes for Mr. Beals way of Singing called 'by Rule' but it was offered whether it would not be better to order the voters to pass out of the Meeting House door and there be counted who did accordingly and their number was 44 or 45.
"I'd like to know what they'll do next," cried Mrs. Zelotes. "I should call it pretty work." "Nahum Beals has acted to me as if he was half crazy for some time," said Fanny. "No doubt about it," said Lee; "but I shouldn't wonder if he had to swing." "It's dreadful," said Fanny. "I wonder when she's comin' home."
Did this old man's death mean another scandal, ruin for another family, and one she had known well, disgrace, scandal, possibly poverty? "Beals was always in the market and this panic hit him hard; he was on the wrong side lately."
"You can't dig when the ground's froze hard," Eva said, with literal meaning. "Then I'll take a pickaxe," cried Jim. "You can dig, but who's goin' to pay you for the diggin'?" demanded Nahum Beals. "The idea of a girl's bein' afraid I wa'n't enough of a man to support a wife with an arm like that," said Jim Tenny, "as if I couldn't dig for her, or fight for her."
That can kick free, thank the Lord." "I didn't make up my mind to it," said Ellen. "I am not going to be a slave in any way, and I am not going to approve of others being slaves." "You think they ought to strike?" "Yes, if it is true that Mr. Lloyd is going to dock their wages, but I don't feel sure that it is true. Mr. Beals is a queer man. Sometimes I have thought he was dangerous."
"Here's Joseph Atkins and Nahum Beals," Andrew said, in his melancholy voice, all unstirred by the usual warmth of greeting. The two men bowed stiffly. "Good-evenin'," Fanny said, and rose and pushed forward the rocking-chair in which she had been seated to Joseph Atkins, who was a consumptive man with an invalid wife, and worked next Andrew in Lloyd's.
At the head of the procession, now nearly topping the hill beneath the house, was that silent married couple, the heavy, sober man and the serene, large-eyed woman, who did not mingle with the others. He had pointed out to her the amiable Senator and President Beals, both well-known figures in the railroad world where he worked, far down, obscurely, as a rate clerk.
