Callandar would not allow his fiancée to go away alone it seemed only fair that he should make haste to go with her. Comment on all these points was much more restrained than usual because, just at this time, Coombe withstood the shock of finding out that Dr. Callandar was no less than Dr. Henry Chedridge Callandar of Montreal. No, not his brother, nor his cousin, but the man himself!
They were at home. They must have had my letter they must be expecting me "Something in the woman's face daunted me. It was deathly and strained. Surely she did not intend to continue her opposition? Yet it confused me. I forgot all that I had intended to say, I stammered: "'I am Henry Chedridge. I want to see Molly. I am rich, I have my degree "'You cannot see her! she said. Just that!
"But you can't! I live in Coombe. It is my home. There isn't a Chedridge in the place." "My name is not Chedridge now. I took my uncle's name when I inherited his money. I am called Henry Callandar." "Callandar!" Her voice rose shrilly on the word. "And you are living in Coombe? Why you are you must be Esther's Dr. Callandar!"
"You and Doctor Callandar schoolmates?" The eyes were very wide now. Mary grew more and more confused. "Yes that is, not exactly. I mean his name wasn't Callandar then. His name was Chedridge. Did you never hear me speak of Harry Chedridge?" "Never." "Well, you never listen to half I say. And how was I to know that Doctor Callandar was the Harry Chedridge I used to know?
I ceased to be Henry Chedridge, lover, and became Henry Callandar, scientist. All this I owe to you." The other raised his hand. "No, not that. Some impulse I may have given you, but you have made yourself what you are. But you have not told me all yet?" "No." Again the doctor began his uneasy pacing of the room. "The rest is harder to tell. It is not so clear.
You remember that my father's name, the name under which I married Molly, was Chedridge. "Nothing now held me from Molly in another month I would have my degree, and free and rich I could go to claim her. It seemed like a fairy tale! In my great happiness I broke my promise and wrote to her, to the California address, hoping to catch her there.
