Once the priest stopped and said: "My son, let the things of this earth go, and turn your attention toward those of heaven." Delaney paid no attention to this admonition. The whole six then began delivering farewell messages to those in the crowd. Key pulled a watch from his pocket and said: "Two minutes more to talk."
"I would rather not go into that," said Mr. Delaney. "Dear me, David, how touchy you are! Why will you not accept a patent fact? I have no wish to hurt your feelings, but I really must speak out plain common sense. I always was noted for my common sense, was I not? I don't believe, in the length and breadth of England, you will find better behaved children than my five.
They saw, however, that the latter repeatedly shook his head and once they heard him exclaim in a loud voice: "I only know my duty, Mr. Derrick." Then Gethings turned about, and seeing Delaney close at hand, addressed an unheard remark to him. The cow-puncher replied curtly and the words seemed to anger Gethings.
But Percival Delaney was not to be deterred. He kissed his pudgy hand aloft into the night and held warmly on. "No fond agonies of rapture deferred that were not lavished upon me by my dear Princess, herself ever a luring delight of promise flitting just beyond my reach. Every sweet lover's inferno unguessed of by Dante she led me through. Ah!
Two or three slips of paper with drawings upon them fluttered out and fell on the table beneath. Suddenly there was a cry. Julie turned round, her lips parted. Lord Lackington walked up to her. "Tell me what this means," he said, peremptorily. "How did you come by it?" It was a volume of George Sand. He pointed, trembling, to the name and date on the fly-leaf "Rose Delaney, 1842."
"The Biblical decisions," put in the younger priest. "That partly; and the whole conflict that began with the rise of Modernism at the beginning of the century but much more the condemnation of Delaney, and of the New Transcendentalism generally, as it was then understood. He died outside the Church, you know.
"I hope you are not much the worse for the tumble. Gad! it was a near thing, though. The quarryman's arms were a rough necklace." At that moment they were carrying by the disfigured remains of the dead Colossus. His slayer stopped them, and bent over the hideous face with a grim satisfaction. "My good friend Delaney," he muttered, "you will own that I have kept my word.
Delaney's posse, dogs and men, swung into view at the turn of the road, their figures leaning over as they took the curve at full speed. Dyke threw everything wide open and caught up his revolver. From behind came the challenge of a Winchester. The party on the Lower Road were even closer than Delaney.
Van Twiller had actually been very deeply interested not in an actress, for the legitimate drama was not her humble walk in life, but in Mademoiselle Olympe Zabriski, whose really perilous feats on the trapeze had astonished New York the year before, though they had failed to attract Delaney and me the night we wandered into the up-town theatre on the trail of Van Twiller's mystery.
Hilma, very embarrassed, was trying not to laugh, and thus they found themselves, out in the middle of the floor, continually jostled from their position, holding clumsily to each other, stammering excuses into one another's faces, when Delaney arrived. He came with the suddenness of an explosion.
