The little rectory here is honorably distinguished as having given to the Church of England three of its famous prelates: Bishop Ken, one of the martyrs whom James II. imprisoned in the Tower, and whose favorite walk is still pointed out in the pretty garden; Bishop Samuel Wilberforce of Winchester, whose unfortunate death occurred not long ago at Evershed Rough; and the present Bishop Moberly of Salisbury.
It was to the north-west of Wotton, on a tract of common known as Evershed Rough, that Bishop Samuel Wilberforce, while riding with Earl Granville in 1873, was thrown from the saddle by his stumbling horse, and striking the ground with his head was almost immediately killed. A cross marks the sad and lonely spot.
Whether in his hours of intimacy with her twelve months before, young Alfred Evershed had received the same impression, may be doubted. In all things Eugénie de Netteville was an artist. Suddenly the curtain dividing them from the larger drawing-room was drawn back, and Sir John Headlam stood in the doorway. He had the glittering amused eyes of a malicious child as he looked at them.
Your eminent freethinker can't afford just yet, in the present state of the world, to make himself socially ridiculous. The cause suffers. 'Just my feeling, said young Evershed calmly. 'Though I mayn't care a rap about him personally, I prefer that a man on my own front bench shouldn't make a public ass of himself if he can help it not for his sake, of course, but for mine!
But there is such a thing as destroying the illusion to such an extent that you injure your pocket. Desforêts is doing it doing it actually in Paris too. There was a ripple of laughter. 'Paris and illusions O mon Dieu! groaned young Evershed, when he had done laughing, laying meditative hands on his knees and gazing into the fire.
