There had been hints of that In the election speeches. And then? No doubt they had got Cossar also? Caterham was a religious man. Redwood clung to that. The back of his mind was a black curtain, and on that curtain there came and went a word a word written in letters of fixe. He struggled perpetually against that word.
Instead of an antagonist who was a fellow-creature, a man one could hold morally responsible, and to whom one could address reasonable appeals, he saw Caterham as something, something like a monstrous rhinoceros, as it were, a civilised rhinoceros begotten of the jungle of democratic affairs, a monster of irresistible onset and invincible resistance.
Yet even now " He stopped for a moment. "This is the echo of Caterham," said his friend. "Even now. Even now there is hope abundant hope, if only we make sure of what we want and what we mean to destroy.
There was a flag of truce." "From them?" "No, Sir. Mr. Caterham sent a flag of truce. The whole thing is a hideous misunderstanding. That is why he wants to talk to you, and put his case before you. They insist, Sir, that you should intervene " Redwood interrupted. "Do you know what happened to my Son?" he asked. "He was wounded." "Tell me! Tell me!"
"Where?" interjected Redwood, stooping to argue. Caterham snatched at that concession. He turned his face to Redwood's, and his voice fell to a persuasive reasonableness. That could be determined. That, he contended, was a quite subsidiary question.
In the course of our inquiries around Crawley, we certainly did not succeed in finding any one who had observed the mysterious car which every one had learned to associate with the Pirate, but we had been told casually at Caterham we had not returned by the direct road between London and Brighton that we were not the only motorists abroad on that night, since another man had passed through the town early the same morning.
His voice was no longer coloured by fear, but by anger. "You know I have not heard. You know I have heard nothing." "Mr. Caterham feared, Sir It was a time of upheaval. Every one taken by surprise. He arrested you to save you, Sir, from any misadventure " "He arrested me to prevent my giving any warning or advice to my son. Go on. Tell me what has happened. Have you succeeded?
But in that way, without cruelty, without injustice " "And suppose the Children do not agree?" For the first time Caterham looked Redwood fully in the face. "They must!" "I don't think they will." "Why should they not agree?" he asked, in richly toned amazement. "Suppose they don't?" "What can it be but war? We cannot have the thing go on. We cannot. Sir. Have you scientific men no imagination?
And then he calculates how much a pair of breeches for a growing lad of twenty feet high or so will cost. Just as though he really believed Ten pounds, he reckons, for the merest decency. Curious this Caterham! So concrete! The honest, and struggling ratepayer will have to contribute to that, he says. He says we have to consider the Rights of the Parent. It's all here. Two columns.
We are going on making the Food. Cossar also. We're only just in the dawn of the beginning, Redwood. It's evident all sorts of things are to follow. Monstrous great things. But I can't imagine them, Redwood. Except " He scanned his finger nails. He looked up at Redwood with eyes bland through his glasses. "I've half a mind," he adventured, "that Caterham is right. At times.
