Majendie's aim therefore was to avoid controversy with his ecclesiastical superiors, and at a time when, as he told Lidderdale, he was stepping back in order to jump farther, he was anxious that his missioner should step back with him. "I'm not suggesting, my dear fellow, that you should bring St. Wilfred's actually into line with the parish church. But the Asperges, you know.
"Your behaviour, my boy, is revolting," said Mr. Lidderdale. "A young Mohawk would not talk to his guardians as you are talking to me." "Well, I don't want you to think I'm going to obey you if you forbid me to go to Meade Cantorum," said Mark. "I'm sorry I was rude, Aunt Helen. I oughtn't to have spoken to you like that.
I myself tremble at the thought of it, knowing that God considers me too weak a subject for such a test." "Oh, Mr. Ogilvie," Mark expostulated. "I'm not talking to you as Mark Lidderdale, but as the recipient of the grace of God, to one who before my own unworthy eyes has been lightened by celestial fire. Mine eyes have seen thy salvation, O Lord.
Get away to your room." It never struck Mr. Lidderdale that his nephew was telling the truth.
Lidderdale ejaculated in wrath. Furthermore, the Bishop wanted to know if the report that on Good Friday was held a Roman Catholic Service called the Mass of the Pre-Sanctified followed by the ceremony of Creeping to the Cross was true. When Majendie departed, the Lima Street Missioner jumped a long way forward in one leap. Lidderdale pay him a visit at Fulham Palace as soon as possible.
"I thought you wouldn't mind, my lord, if I brought with me young Lidderdale, who is reading for Holy Orders and working with us at St. Agnes'. I am apt to forget sometimes exactly to what I have and have not committed myself and I thought your lordship would not object. . . ." "To a witness?" interposed the Bishop in a tone of courtly banter. "Come, come, Mr.
Oh, yes, the following points: no Asperges, no unusual Good Friday services, except of course the Three Hours. Is not that enough?" "The Three Hours I would give up. It's a modern invention of the Jesuits. The Adoration of the Cross goes back. . . ." "Please, please, Mr. Lidderdale, my cab is at the door. We must not embark on controversy. No celebrations without communicants.
"I, Mark Lidderdale, about to be admitted to the Holy Order of Deacons, do swear that I will be faithful and bear true Allegiance to His Majesty King Edward, his heirs and successors according to law. "So help me God." "But the strange thing is," Mark said to one of his fellow candidates, "nobody asks us to take the oath of allegiance to God."
They get into the habit of thinking God is their special property and when they get older and find he isn't, as often as not they give up religion altogether, because it doesn't happen to fit in with the spoilt notions they got hold of as infants." Mark's bringing up was the only thing in which Mrs. Lidderdale did not give way to her husband.
Lidderdale supposed in answer to her prayers, the solution was provided unexpectedly in the following letter: Haverton House, Elmhurst Road, Slowbridge. November 29th. Dear Grace, I have just received a letter from James written when he was at the point of death in Africa.
