But our inquiry into the origin of European civilisation does not demand any extensive description of the AEgean culture and its Mycenaean offshoot. It was utterly destroyed between 1500 and 1000 B.C., and this was probably done by the Aryan ancestors of the later Greeks or Hellenes.
Not so, however, with some of the passengers, who had been near enough to hear the words, and who seemed to think that the memory of the great dead was insulted, instead of honored, by this rebuff to the miserable offshoot who kept Mount Vernon as a cross between a pig-stye and a Jew old-clo' shop.
But the others were absorbed, and bent eagerly over their paper, and thus the horrified Mrs. Hastings found them on her return from the parlor, the offshoot from a cellar rum hole bending his curly head close beside her daughter's! She exclaimed in indignant astonishment: "Dora Hastings!"
The rubber manufacture in the Dominion, in its inception, was practically an offshoot from the industry in this country.
So there had grown up a broader feeling, and numbers, while they did not quite like to break with their own communion, were more tolerant, read disapproved books, thought more of education, and began to look with different eyes on the great world, while others, almost horror-stricken at the latitude, drew their lines tighter.

There is strong presumptive evidence that the American family is an offshoot from this.
While I was there a young 'priest, an offshoot from the cathedral, started up a new parish in one of the industrial outskirts. He was quite earnest and eloquent and put up a fine service; but nobody except his own father and mother went to hear him preach." Mrs. Phillips returned to the Sisterhood house. "Are they nice girls?" she asked acutely. "Oh, I guess so. I met two or three of them.
Huguenots established themselves in the Carolinas and elsewhere. Then came Penn to build a great Quaker state among the scattered Dutch settlements along the Delaware. The American seaboard became the refuge of each man who refused to bow his neck to despotism of whatever type. Under such settlers English America soon ceased to be a mere offshoot of Europe.
The originality of the Śaiva Siddhânta lies less in its dogmas than in its devotional character: in the feeling that the soul is immersed in darkness and struggles upwards by the grace of the Lord, so that the whole process of Karma and Mâyâ is really beneficent. As already mentioned Śivaism has an important though unorthodox offshoot in the Lingâyats or Lingavants.
