Upon this holy scene where troubled son and anxious mother meet we will not obtrude, and so step lightly out of the room. A Revelation. The fact that Ensal was to resign his church and leave the country was soon known throughout Almaville and filled the hearts of the good people of both races with sore regret. Tiara was amazed. "Am I no more to him than that," she asked herself.
"Is there any significance attached to your choice of an initial to represent your rather significant given name?" asked Ensal. "Decidedly," said Mr. Hostility. "The A stands for Anglo-Saxon, the God-commissioned or self-appointed world conqueror. I am the incarnation of hostility to that race, or to that branch of the human family claiming the dominance of that strain of blood."
The day wore on, and about dusk Earl returned to Ensal's home, and the two at once entered upon the consideration of the grave matter that was to be the subject of their conference. "Before giving my plan, Ensal, I will present the course of reasoning that leads me up to the conclusion that it is the one path to pursue," began Earl. "So do," said Ensal.
Upon the bridge from which hundreds had seen little Henry Crump driven to his death; where the majesty of the law had been trampled under foot in the murder and mutilation of Dave Harper upon this bridge now stood Ensal awaiting the coming of Earl who had to pass that way to reach the place of rendezvous agreed upon by himself and followers.
They now decided to punish Henry to the limit of the law. "Release the prisoner," said the judge. Henry was released and Foresta and her frail looking mother rushed to Tiara to thank her. While they were doing this the deputy sheriff stepped up and rearrested Henry. "Pardon me," said Ensal, interrupting the felicitations of the ladies. "We are not through yet.
Eschew your plan and join hands with me." Earl was silent for a few moments and then said: "This is all very good, Ensal, but it needs a supplement. Charles Sumner's oratory and Mrs. Stowe's affecting portraiture of poor old Uncle Tom were not sufficient of themselves to move the nation. There had to be a John Brown and a Harper's Ferry. Preserve that paper and send it forth.
Choosing an hour when she knew Ensal would not be in, Tiara called at his home to see his mother. Mrs. Ellwood received her in her bedroom. She dropped on her knees by Mrs. Ellwood's side, and said in tones that told of a sadly torn heart: "Mrs. Ellwood, don't let your boy leave. We need him. I , don't, don't let him go."
He arose and strode to and fro across the room. "Never in all my wide range of reading have I ever come across a more reprehensible occurrence," muttered he. "Listen," said Earl, in the tone of one having more to add. Ensal paused in his walking and unconsciously lifted his hand as though to ward off a blow. "The man and his wife who were burned at the stake were Bud and Foresta." "What! Our Bud!
It was evident to Ensal that further progress in her favor was largely contingent upon his answer, and the marriage of Frederick Douglass to a white woman became an exceedingly live question with him. He accompanied Tiara and Foresta home and the moonlight and starlight never before appeared so glorious to him or nature so benign. After all the heart makes its world. Friendly Enemies.
She was determined that Ensal and Tiara should marry; her whole heart was set upon the project. Never in her whole life had she met a couple more clearly designed for each other than this pair, as she viewed the matter. She knew how firm of mind both Ensal and Tiara were and how useless it would be to attempt to talk to either of them.
