It was a cañon of decay, yet of life, for as he trudged along, the roar of great motors came to Fairchild's ears; and a moment later he stepped aside to allow the passage of ore-laden automobile trucks, loaded until the springs had flattened and until the engines howled with their compression as they sought to hold back their burdens on the steep grade.
It took out about two hundred feet of trestle, and there won't be a train into Ohadi for a week." The disappointment on Fairchild's face was more than apparent, almost boyish in its depression. The ticket seller leaned closer to the wicket. "Stranger out here?" "Very much of one." "In a hurry to get to Ohadi?" "Yes."
Then followed long moments of waiting, in which Robert Fairchild's eyes went to the floor, in which he strove to avoid the gaze of every one in the crowded court room. He knew what they were thinking, that his father had been a murderer, and that he well, that he was blood of his father's blood.
Fairchild could see that they were talking about him, their eyes turned often in his direction; once Taylor Bill nodded and sneered as he answered some remark of his companion. The blood went hot in Fairchild's brain. He rose from the table, hands clenched, muscles tensed, only to find himself drawn back by the strong grasp of Harry.
'I almost feel as if he were too good to live, said Mrs. Fairchild one evening to Celestina and her father, when she had returned from a visit to the rectory. But this time it was Mr. Fairchild's turn to speak cheerily, for he too had been spending an hour or two with the invalid that day. 'I saw a decided improvement to-day, he said. 'I do think Mr.
But I 've saved a few young bloods like you from trouble more than once. You ain't been high-grading?" "You mean " "Just exactly what I said wandering around somebody else's property and picking up a few samples, as it were, to mix in with your own product? Or planting them where they can be found easily by a prospective buyer?" Fairchild's chin set, and his arms moved slowly.
It's Burrows and Fairchild's mammoth circus and menagerie and it's coming a week from Thursday." "Are you going, Darn?" asked Danny. "Am I going?" repeated that youth. "I should say I am going in a box seat." "Is it a big circus?" asked Chris. "It's one of the biggest there is," replied Darn, "with elephants and clowns and a bearded lady and everything. I'll tell you all about it the next day."
Fairchild's children quite cried out at the sight of these things; there were enough to furnish a toy-shop, besides the books. Miss Darwell said, "Which would you like?" Henry fixed upon a large Noah's ark, and when it was reached down, he placed himself on the floor, and made a procession of its inmates.
"What an elegant frock Miss Augusta has on!" said a third lady. "That rose-coloured sash makes her sweet complexion more lovely than ever," said one of the gentlemen; and so they went on flattering her till she grew more conceited and full of herself than ever; and during all the rest of the evening she took no more notice of Mrs. Fairchild's children than if they had not been in the room.
Vane and I am hurrying off to Brewton by the next train, for unfortunately there is something wrong with one of the organ stops and I must get a man to come over at once. It would never do not to be able to use the organ properly the first Sunday Mr. Vane is here. I find it later than I thought, and I had undertaken to leave this note at Mr. Fairchild's in Pier Street for the rector.
