They are out tracting, I think but won't you come in?" "No, thank you, I wanted to see Elder Malby." "Well, he might be back at any time come in and rest. You look tired." "Well I believe I will." He followed the motherly housekeeper into the office parlor, where she bade him be seated.
Why had he not thought of that sooner? He quickened his steps, and in a few minutes he was ringing the bell. He heard it tingle within, but no one responded. He rang again, and this time steps were heard coming up from the basement. The housekeeper opened the door. "Good morning," she greeted him with a smile. "Good morning, is Elder Malby in?" "No; none of the elders are in.
Thus, in every respect, become a citizen, I was sheltered from legal expulsion, even by the prince; but it has never been by legitimate means, that the man who, of all others, has shown the greatest respect for the laws, has been persecuted. I do not think I ought to enumerate, amongst the number of my losses at this time, that of the Abbe Malby.
Marivaux, the Abbe Malby, and Fontenelle, were almost the only persons whom I sometimes went to see. To the first I showed my comedy of Narcissus. He was pleased with it, and had the goodness to make in it some improvements. Diderot, younger than these, was much about my own age.
The esteem I had for the Abbe Malby, and my great opinion of his understanding, did not permit me to believe this extravagant letter was written by him. I acted in this business with my usual candor. I sent him a copy of the letter, informing him he was said to be the author of it. He returned me no answer.
Here was Penny, who had specialised in forgeries; Brown, who knew every trick of coiners; Malby, the terror of race-course sharps; Menzies, who had as keen a scent for the gambling hell as a hound for a fox; Poole, who was intimate with the ways of railway thieves and shoplifters. Not one but thoroughly understood his profession, and knew where to look for his information.
"Ireland is a pretty fine country, too," said Chester, with far-away tone, still gazing out of the window. Elder Malby laughed heartily, in which his companion joined. Chester had told him his Irish experiences. Ramsgate is a pretty town on the east coast. It being Sunday, the shops were closed and the streets quiet.
The chief command in Munster now devolved upon Sir Nicholas Malby, an officer who had seen much foreign service, while the temporary vacancy in the government was filled by the Council at Dublin, whose choice fell on Sir William Pelham, another distinguished military man, lately arrived from England.
They clung to his heart, and the minister himself became transfigured for an instant into some other being, stern of countenance, yet loveliness in the depths of his soul, spiritually far away, yet heart yearning with nearness of love. Chester came fully to himself only when Elder Malby took his arm and together they paced a few turns around the deck.
Every home, especially of the poor and uneducated is to be visited. It would therefore be the part of wisdom to give a timely word of warning. This is a time to cry aloud and spare not, lest many be led astray by these pernicious teachings." The minister followed up this reading by a stream of personal abuse against "Mormons" in general and Elder Malby whose name he knew in particular.
