A conversation ensued; and amid the rumbling of trains and the rough stir of the platform we got back again to Simon Fuge, and Mr Brindley's tone gradually grew, if not acrid, a little impatient. 'After all, he said, 'rates are rates, especially in Hanbridge. And let me tell you that last season Knype Football Club jolly nearly got thrown out of the First League.
A.L." This we pushed under Brindley's front door on our way forth. Very soon we were vibrating up a steep street on the first speed of the car, and the yellow reflections of distant furnaces began to shine over house roofs below us. It was exhilaratingly cold, a clear and frosty night, tonic, bracing after the enclosed warmth of the study. I was joyous, but silently.
"But you will sing, and sing well, in one or the other, if you work." "You really mean that?" said Mildred. "If you work intelligently and persistently," said Mrs. Brindley. "That's a big if as you'll discover in a year or so." "You'll see," said Mildred confidently. "Why, I've nothing else to do, and no other hope." Mrs. Brindley's smile had a certain sadness in it.
"No, I haven't!" he said anxiously. "What is it?" He gazed at the white blur of Brindley's face in the darkened box, and he could hear the rapid clicking of the cinematograph behind him. "Didn't you see it in the Signal?" "No." "Neither did I," said Brindley. At the same moment the moving pictures came to an end, the theatre was filled with light, and the band began to play "God Save the King."
Four or five shops had been shut up, as it were definitely, the landlords having given up hope of discovering serious tenants. And, of those kept open, the majority were struggling desperately to make ends meet. Only Holl's and a new upstart draper, who had widely advertised his dress-making department, were really flourishing. The confectionery half of Mr. Brindley's business was disappearing.
Brindley's very unhappy that you haven't been to see her." "When you asked me to marry you, the only reason I almost accepted was because I want someone to support me. I love you yes. But it is as one loves before one has given oneself and has lived the same life with another. In the ordinary sense, it's love that I feel.

Cyrilla Brindley's face was tragic as she looked at the beautiful girl, so gracefully adjusted to the big chair.
At the same time the obsolete curvatures in Brindley's old canal were converted into separate branches or basins, for the accommodation of the numerous mines and manufactories on either side of the main line. In consequence of the alterations which had been made in the canal, it was found necessary to construct numerous large bridges.
The generous rich fill them with the feeling that the light by which they shine and the heat with which they are warm are not reflected light and heat but their own. Never had she been so happy. She even did not especially mind Donald Keith, a friend of Stanley's and of Mrs. Brindley's, who, much too often to suit her, made one of the party.
Brindley's Canal, for the sake of cheapness of construction money being much scarcer and more difficult to be raised in the early days of canals was also winding and crooked; and it was considered desirable to shorten and straighten it by cutting off the bends at different places.
