"The way to attack an enemy is to get at him where you can do him the most harm at the least risk to yourself." A sinister smile now played upon the man's face. "Your color is the thing that operates against you Negroes. You can take what is your curse and make it your salvation." The man was delighted with the interest that was plainly evident on Ensal's face.
Earl was fully convinced within himself that all of Ensal's hopes of a satisfactory, peaceful adjustment of matters were to be dashed to the ground, and knowing how thoroughly Ensal's soul was committed to the advancement of the race, he really expected Ensal to develop into the leader of the radicals.
That which would quicken my spirit and give me the needed zest to face the work of an Atlas, the bearing of a world upon my shoulders that influence is far removed from me, farther than those stretches of thousands of miles tell of." During Ensal's absence of many months his mail had accumulated until now he found himself face to face with a huge pile of unopened letters and newspapers.
I will further ripen his heart for my purposes." Upon Ensal's return to the room, Mr. Hostility called his attention to the book written for the express purpose of thoroughly discrediting the Negro race in America. The militant look that came into Ensal's eye pleased Mr. Hostility immensely. "I will get him! I will get him!" thought he.
But you would prefer being the ones living to make the fight, would you not?" asked the man, now nervously awaiting Ensal's next words. Ensal was silent for a few seconds. Then he asked slowly: "Do you make that proposition to me, a follower of the Christ?" "I have anticipated you there. Did not God use plagues and a wholesale slaughter to solve the Egyptian race problem?
There was a look of determination in Ensal's eye that caused Earl to feel that important developments were sure to follow. "Earl, my friend, you shall not commit this blunder," said Ensal. Ensal's grasp tightened, and he said, "I tell you frankly, Earl, you will have to disable me before you get to that crowd to-night." "Turn me loose," said Earl, in a quiet, determined, yet kindly tone.
Just at this moment Ensal's mother informed him that a committee was in their parlor, having come for the purpose of pleading with Ensal to reconsider his determination to leave America. "Madam," said Mr.
As humble as was Ensal's opinion of himself he was compelled to admit that the net result of this short interview was a decided conviction that Tiara was not altogether indifferent to him, that he held no mean place in her regard. But he was the more mystified as to why she had so persistently refused to allow him to call. But all this is aside.
Taking possession of a boat which he found moored near by, Ensal put Earl into it and rowed until he was opposite Tiara's house. After considerable effort he succeeded in arousing the inmates. Tiara attired herself and came out upon the back porch and listened to Ensal's story. She dared not look him in the face too often. Her eyes told too plainly of her suppressed love.
The man drew his seat up to the table and, motioning for Ensal to take a seat on the other side, said "Come near me, friend." Ensal did as bidden and sitting thus close to the man noted the almost maniacal look of intensity in his eye. Keeping his eyes steadily on Ensal's face, Mr. Hostility lifted his hand to his inside pocket and drew out a leathern case.
