After repeated entreaties that she would say one word, Moyse raised her up, and, looking in her face, said authoritatively "You will do as I say, Genifrede?" "Moyse, I dare not. No, no, I dare not! If, when we are dead, you should be dead to me too! And how do we know?
"I thought you had been ready to live and die with me." "And so I am ready to live anywhere, anyhow ready to die, if only we could be sure Oh! if you could only tell me there is nothing beyond " "I have little doubt," said Moyse, "that death is really what it is to our eyes an end of everything." "Do you think so?
"Your drawings, my daughters!" said L'Ouverture, with a smile, as if he had been perfectly at leisure. And he examined the Naiad, and then Genifrede's drawing, with the attention of an artist. Genifrede had made great progress, under the eye of Moyse. Not so Aimee; her pencil had been busy all the while, but there was no Naiad on her page. "They are for Isaac," she said, timidly.
Too prone to ease and satisfaction, for my child's sake and my own, I too soon concluded you a man, and imposed upon you the duties of a man. Your failure is my condemnation. I have cut short your discipline, and enabled you to throw away your life. All this, and much more, am I answerable for. Whether or not God may have mercy, can you yield me your pardon? I implore it, Moyse."
His boys were come, choosing to bring themselves the news from Breda that Margot and her daughters, and old Dessalines and Moyse were all there, safe and happy, except for their dismay at finding the cottage and field in such a state of desolation. "They will not mind when they hear that they are to live in a mansion henceforward," said Placide.
Later, by the will of Sir William Macdonald, it was left an endowment fund which placed it on an independent basis and enabled it to be expanded into a Faculty of the University. In 1903 Dr. Alexander Johnson, who had been Vice-Principal for seventeen years, retired and was succeeded by Charles E. Moyse, Professor of English.
Moyse gazed at him in astonishment, and then cast himself at his uncle's feet, clinging to his knees, and crying "Save me! uncle, save me! You can you will " "No, Moyse, I will not I cannot," declared Toussaint, in a voice which silenced even that most piercing of all sounds the cry for life. "Not one word!" continued L'Ouverture. "Keep your entreaties for Him who alone can help you.
"If it be so, may indeed Heaven forgive you! Moyse hates the whites: and you see how wretched we are!" "Aimee, do not be hard. We are made to love my heart inclines to all who are about me: but if there are some if one cannot Oh, Aimee, do not be hard!" "It is those who hate who are hard," said Aimee, whose tears fell fast, in sympathy with Afra's. "Is it not so, Afra?"
He whispered to me, in the piazza at Pongaudin, that, next to himself, you saved the town that many whites owed their lives and their fortunes to you." "I repent," cried Moyse, bitterly, "I repent of my deeds of that day. I repent that any white ever owed me gratitude. I thank God, I have shaken them off, like the dust from my feet! Thank God, the whites are all cursing me now!"
In May, 1920, Sir Arthur Currie, formerly Commander of the Canadian Corps in France, was appointed Principal, and in the following August he took up his new duties. In June of that year Vice-Principal Moyse resigned after forty-one years of service as Professor of English. He was succeeded as Vice-Principal by Dr. Frank D. Adams, Dean of the Faculty of Applied Science.
