All that kind of thing is worth nothing in the kingdom; and nothing will be remembered of us but the Master's judgment. I have known a good churchwoman who would be sweet as a sister to the abject poor, but offensively condescending to a shopkeeper or a dissenter, exactly as if he was a Pariah, and she a Brahmin.
She was about forty, a good manager, with an equable temper, a widow, with no children, not in the least degree rigid, but, on the contrary, affectionate. She had seen some trouble with her first husband, who was a little farmer and drank, and consequently, although she was a churchwoman, had been driven to the Bible, and had found much comfort therein.
Jimmie, who is an ardent churchwoman, went in a spirit of deep devotion. Bee went because one agent told her that over twelve thousand Americans had been booked through their company alone. Bee goes to everything that everybody else goes to. Jimmie went in exactly the same spirit of boyish, alert curiosity with which, when he is in New York, he goes to each new attraction at Weber and Field's.
And there was nothing I could say.... I prayed.... It isn't the poverty I feared ever, but the disgrace. Now I'm happy. I'm happy again. "But how far do you come with me?" "I'm with you." "But," he said, "you are still a churchwoman?" "I don't know," she said. "I don't mind." He stared at her. "But I thought always that was what hurt you most, my breach with the church."
"This property, if I understand you rightly, is now in the possession of the church?" "It was given by the will that was found to the church and to missions. Some of it went to the founding of a home for invalid priests. My aunt was the one of my relatives who was a churchwoman." "And if you succeed in finding and establishing this new will, you mean to divert the money to your own use?"
She had the trick of playing what tune she cared to on a man's heartstrings. After it was all over, and your father and she had left the place, I spent years trying to persuade your mother to get a divorce and marry me. But she was the daughter of a Bishop, a High Churchwoman, and a holy woman. She died with your father's name upon her lips." I shuddered!
He had an abject terror of dying, but it seemed to him that if a person could die right in the centre isle of the church the Methodist church where his mother used to go before she became finally a New Churchwoman the chances of that person's going straight to heaven would be so uncommonly good that he need have very little anxiety about it.
God help us, what fools we have been! "Our village shopkeeper, a dissenter, and a much-vaunted local preacher, is also left behind, but his wife was taken. A farmer, a member of our own church, who used to invite preachers down from the Evangelization Society, London, is gone, but his wife, a strict churchwoman like myself but a rare shrew is left.
His widow survived him thirteen years an intelligent and devout churchwoman who, as it has been said, "left a name only to be loved and honored by her friends." Two of his sons entered the ministry. The younger of them, George Augustus Shelton, a graduate of Yale College, died in 1863, Rector of St.
Hurst was an excellent Churchwoman, much better than they were, who had, perhaps, been brought up too completely under the shadow of the Church to believe in it implicitly, they hesitated before pronouncing before her that unfortunate name. "I don't know whether you are aware," Ursula said at last, with some slowness and reluctance, "that papa's pupil is of a Dissenting family.
