"That sounds exactly as though my dead father were speaking." "I'll not be made a laughing-stock by you." "You make yourself one as your father did before you. A Kingsnorth! What has your name meant?
"Ye may well say that, Miss Kingsnorth," said the merry little doctor. "But it's betther than a bullet from a Martini-Henry rifle, that's what it is. And there's many a poor English landlord's got one of 'em in the back for ridin' about at night on his own land. It's a fatherly government we have, Miss Kingsnorth.
Hawkes returned to the will and after looking at it a moment without reading said: "To his immediate relations Mr. Kingsnorth left, I regret to say NOTHING." A momentary silence fell like a pall over the stricken Chichester family. Mrs. Chichester rose, indignation flashing from the eyes that a moment since showed a healthy hope. "Nothing?" she cried incredulously.
As he entered a first-class carriage on the Great Northern Railway at King's Cross station next day, bound for Scarboro, he found himself wondering how the experiment, dictated by Kingsnorth on his death-bed, had progressed. It was a most interesting case.
Even in his 'last will and testament' my father proved himself a Kingsnorth. It was only a Kingsnorth could make his youngest daughter dependent on YOU!" "My father knew I would respect his wishes." "He was equally responsible for me, yet he leaves me to YOUR care. A Kingsnorth!" "The men MASTERS and the women SLAVES!" "That is the Kingsnorth doctrine."
"He was always the most selfish, the most " began Mrs. Chichester, when Mr. Hawkes, who bad been turning over the pages of the document before him, gave an ejaculation of relief. "Ah! Here we have it. This, Mrs. Chichester, is how Mr. Kingsnorth expressed his attitude toward his relations in his last will and testament." "'I am the only member of the Kingsnorth family who ever made any money.
The first stations set up were Eastchurch, Isle of Grain, Calshot, Felixstowe, Yarmouth, Cromarty and Kingsnorth, from which at the outbreak of war an organized coastal patrol was established. From the outset the Naval Wing, assisted by its large percentage of skilled technical personnel, paid great attention to experimental work of all sorts.
He communicated the result of his inquiries to Kingsnorth. That day a letter was sent to O'Connell asking him to allow his child to visit her dying uncle. O'Connell was to cable at Kingsnorth's expense and if he would consent the money for the expenses of the journey would be cabled immediately. The girl was to start at once, as Mr. Kingsnorth had very little longer to live.
Kingsnorth realised that he had not very much longer to live he spoke constantly of his other sister Angela," resumed Mr. Hawkes. "Angela?" cried Mrs. Chichester in surprise; "why, she is dead." "That was why he spoke of her," said Hawkes gravely. "And not a word of me?" asked Mrs. Chichester. "We will come to that a little later," and Mr. Hawkes again referred to the will.
She was roused from her self-searching thoughts by the doctor's voice and the touch of his hand. "Good-bye for the present, Miss Kingsnorth. Sure it's in good hands I'm lavin' him. But for you he'd be lyin' in the black jail with old Doctor Costello glarin' down at him with his gimlet eyes, I wouldn't wish a dog that.
