She had been trying to drive; she had driven the car at snail's pace the length of the drive leading from Upton House, and tried to turn out of the open carriage gate into the road. "If you hadn't been here we should have gone into the wall, shouldn't we?" she demanded. Kettering laughed. "I'm very much afraid we should," he said. "But that's nothing.
I have done the one and only thing, and it was good for me that the means were so near at hand. And so I hope to have your approval both of my determination and of my returning you this bank-note. I have still eighteen-pence in my pocket, and Mr. Kettering says I can draw a few shillings whenever I feel in need of them.
William Carey was a shoemaker during the twelve years of his life from sixteen to twenty-eight, till he went to Leicester. Poverty, which the grace of God used to make him a preacher also from his eighteenth year, compelled him to work with his hands in leather all the week, and to tramp many a weary mile to Northampton and Kettering carrying the product of his labour.
She forgot all about Kettering; she ran away from him, and down the stairs in childish delight. He followed slowly. He reached the hall just in time to see her fling herself into the arms of a tall girl standing there; just in time to hear smothered ejaculations. "You poor darling!" and "Oh, Gladys!" and the sound of many kisses. He stood there awkwardly, not knowing what to do.
Kettering had gone to pay for the tea; she stood looking after him with dawning apprehension in her eyes. He was a fine enough man; there was something about him that gave one such a feeling of safety of security. She could not imagine that he would ever deliberately set himself to hurt a woman, as as Jimmy had. She went out to the car and stood waiting for him.
"If you will ask me again when I come back, I will give you your answer." She left him no reason for doubting what that answer would be; and, stretching out his arms, he drew her strongly to him. In a minute or two, however, Sylvia insisted on his returning to his host, and soon afterward Mrs. Kettering came in to look for her.

Gwen felt she would like an affectionate farewell of Ruth Thrale, but a slight recrudescence of the Norman Conquest came in the way, due to the presence of Keziah and Elizabeth-next-door; so she had to give it up. Tom Kettering was not there, but was reproducible at pleasure by whistles, evolved from some agent close at hand and willing to assist.
Kettering himself would fidget a good deal at such times, but scarcely ventured to intrude, though apparently his greatest delight was also to converse with Morgan. But Mrs. Kettering showed no such scruples about entering into the conversation and eventually taking Morgan captive, being entirely without respect for the fact that her husband was in legal possession.
Jimmy's voice trembled with rage as he forced himself to answer. "I should like to stay to dinner if I may." He had never thought it possible that she could so treat him, never believed that she could be so utterly indifferent. Christine laughed carelessly. "Oh, do stay, by all means. Perhaps Mr. Kettering will stay as well?" Kettering turned. He could not meet her eyes. "I am sorry.
