The E flat nocturne is graceful, shallow of content, but if it is played with purity of touch and freedom from sentimentality it is not nearly so banal as it usually seems. It is Field-like, therefore play it as did Rubinstein, in a Field-like fashion. Hadow calls attention to the "remote and recondite modulations" in the twelfth bar, the chromatic double notes.
"Sept. 24. Second innings. With but 33 to get, the Twelve looked sure of victory, but a harder fight was never yet seen. Bowling and fielding splendid; excitement increasing. Fall of Hadow ringing cheers. Advent of Appleby fracture of Francis. Seven down for 29. Frantic state of Young America. The English captain still cheerful, but puffing rather quickly at his pipe. Six 'maidens' at each end.
I can not speak with certainty, because the two leading men were partially hidden from my sight by an intervening mass of rock, but it is my belief, from the movements of their shoulders, that Croz, having done as I have said, was in the act of turning round to go down a step or two himself; at the moment Mr. Hadow slipt, fell against him and knocked him over.
Garrard laid down the pipe he had been smoking, and, in happy unconsciousness of any audience but the woman at his feet, began to sing. His voice had always been his greatest charm, and the means of gaining him the friendship of men much older than himself. It had won Hadow; it had won Francis.
The king urged that the use of force would imperil the officer's life, which otherwise he had every confidence would be spared." "Very good, sir," said Mr. Francis. "You'll give old George a flaming character," added Hadow. "Very good, sir," said Mr. Francis. "Pile it on about his reverence for the Queen, and the way he gave beef to the ship," said Hadow. "And what then, sir?" inquired Mr.
"A Moore comedy, They're clever stuff, Moore's comedies: always well written, and well put on when Hadow has a hand in it. You never were a playgoer, Bernard." "Not I," said Bernard Clowes.
In the churchyard is a monument to Michel Auguste Croz, the guide, and near by are the graves of the Reverend Charles Hudson and Mr. Hadow. These three, with Lord Francis Douglas were killed in Mr. Whymper's first ascent of the Matterhorn. The body of Lord Francis Douglas has never been found. It is probably deep in some crevasse or under the snows which surround the base of the Matterhorn....
No man had ever accomplished the ascent before, though the attempts had been numerous. MR. WHYMPER'S NARRATIVE We started from Zermatt on the 13th of July, at half past five, on a brilliant and perfectly cloudless morning. Hadow, Rev. Mr. Hudson, and I. To insure steady motion, one tourist and one native walked together. The youngest Taugwalder fell to my share.
"That must go no farther than you and me," said Hadow. "It shall not, sir," returned the first lieutenant. "We shall sail to-night at the turn of the tide," said the captain. "Very good, sir," said Mr. Francis. It was not nine months it was fifteen, and some days to spare before the Dauntless again raised the peak of Borabora and backed her mainyard off the settlement.
There have even been writers of such intelligence as Hadow who have maintained that she was entirely and solely a mother to him.
