I think it was a month before I happened to meet the Winchester boy who had been in the works with me. Quite by accident it was. Let me see now " Mr. Carville paused again, and leaning over to one of the geranium tubs knocked his pipe out. Suddenly he laughed. "Why," he said, "I'm telling you the whole story." "That's what we want you to do," I said, and the others nodded.
I decided to wait until Mr. Carville decided the matter for himself. The spectacle, while I was shaving next morning, of Mr. Carville proceeding sedately down Van Diemen's Avenue with his children, gave a fresh vagueness to his image in my mind. It was as though a hand had been passed over the picture, smudging the outlines and rendering the whole thing of dubious value. A model father!
An evening meeting also was held in the same place in the interest of the amendment. On March 24 Carville D. Benson of Baltimore county moved to lay it on the table which was done by a vote of 61 ayes, 18 noes. No action was taken by the Senate. All the suffrage societies united in asking for the submission of a State amendment for full suffrage. Their best speakers appeared before the committees.
They roused no interest at the soda-counter of Pakenham's drug-store or in the room behind the bar of Slovitzsky's Hotel on Chestnut Street. Our literary club makes no mention in its List of Authors who have lived in Netley, of Mr. Carville and his Cameos of the Sea. Happy the nations who have no history, they say, and no doubt the aphorism may be applied to families as well. Certainly, if Mr.
Carville paused and looked towards a figure coming into view on the path. It was Miss Fraenkel. I looked at my watch. It was twelve o'clock. "Miss Fraenkel is coming up to lunch," I said to Bill. "Will you join us, Mr. Carville?" He stood up shaking his head and brushing the tobacco ash from his vest. "I'll look in afterwards," he said, "but I told the wife I'd be back to dinner."
Carville not only grew no flowers herself, but permitted her chickens to wander deleteriously among ours. A brief and passing glance from the street would have given a stranger no inkling of the state of affairs. Indeed, Mrs. Carville's domain and ours were un-American in the fact that there had at one time been a fence between us.
Let me get back to my brother. "One mid-term my mother got a letter from the head-master saying he regretted that he had been under the painful necessity of expelling Francis Carville from the school. He had been caught flagrante delicto, as the old chap said, and one of the maids had been dismissed. You can imagine how a thing like that upset my mother.
"Yes," he said, as we turned away, "I've come up from the ship. We only got in this morning." "You are late," I agreed. "Mrs. Carville said you might be in on Saturday, and here it is Wednesday." He gave me a quick glance. "Oh! Did she tell you? Yes, we had several bad days after passing Fastnet. The Western ocean is bad all over just now." "I suppose you were sorry to leave the Mediterranean."
Foolish old parlour-tricks we had forgotten since our own early childhood came back to memory and evoked shrieks of laughter. At ten, when I took them, well wrapped up, down our snow-trench and along the sidewalk to their own door, they were in a trance of mingled happiness and fatigue. "Here they are, safe, Mrs. Carville," I said as she opened the door, "but very sleepy."
From this elevated position, in turning towards the north-east, we see the valley of Darnetal, which has become so rich through the industry of those who inhabit it. The eye reposes with pleasure on the gothic tower of the church of Carville; and of which, according to tradition, Henry IVth, made a post of observation when he besieged the fort of the ligue.
