Randolph won't die!" Miss Crilly's face was despairing. "There isn't another one we'd dare tell!" "No," agreed Polly, "he's the only man we can trust. We can't do a single thing till he gets well." Doodles had heard of Nelson Randolph's illness, yet he was unprepared for the additional tidings that came to him when he was on a downtown errand.
He repels, as slanderous, the imputations founded on alleged interpolations restricting religious liberty in the code, and cast at Roger Williams for undue severity to Quakers and for favoring Indian slavery. Randolph's visit, Andros's administration, the suspension and resumption of the Charter, bring him out into broader matters, which he treats with frankness and skill.
"And Miss Randolph's religion!" echoed the last-named, with a quiet distinctness which went into my heart. "What about my independence?" said Miss Bentley. "Now we've got enough, girls, lie down and go to sleep," said Miss Macy. "There's quite enough of this. There was too much before we began. Stop where you are."
As the stranger's eyes followed him and lingered with a singular curiosity on Randolph's dress, he remembered with a sudden alarm that he was wearing the suit of the missing man. A quick impulse to conceal himself came upon him, but he as quickly conquered it, and returned the man's cold stare with an anger he could not account for, but which made the stranger avert his eyes.
They did not stop, however, without a good deal of noisy chaffing and arguing, none of which I heard. Only the words, "Miss Randolph's religion," rung in my ears. I lay down with them lying like lead on my heart. I went to sleep under them. I woke up early, while all the rest were asleep, and began to study them. "Miss Randolph's religion!" If it had been only that, only mine.
On August 18 the treaty was signed, and on the 19th, Washington, in the presence of his cabinet, placed the Fauchet letter in Randolph's hands. Randolph read it, made some comments, and asked time to offer suitable explanations. He then withdrew, and in a few hours sent in his resignation.
Besides Randolph & Randolph's choicest commissions, he had the confidential orders of two of the heavy plunging cliques. I had just passed my thirty-second birthday when my kind old dad suddenly died.
Randolph's jaw fell, and he looked blank. "How much do I owe you?" he asked. Tony referred to a long ledgerlike account-book, turned to a certain page, and running his fingers down a long series of items, answered, "Twenty-seven dollars and sixty cents." "It can't be so much!" ejaculated Randolph, in dismay. "Surely you have made a mistake!" "You can look for yourself," said Tony suavely.
Even unwillingly. In fact, all Randolph's decisions you fought until he made you surrender. You know how you wanted gay-colored gowns until he made you see that grays and mauves were better taste." "Never mind my peccadilloes," said Ruth, lightly. "Let's talk of something less personal."
"This is getting to be too deep a question for you to discuss to-night it is time for you to go to bed. But I cannot have you rude." Daisy kissed her father, who had been extremely gentle and tender with her, and went off to her room. Mr. Randolph's brow looked moody. "Have you brought Daisy's ideas into order?" asked his wife, who had been engaged in conversation with Dr. Sandford.
