"Your father's pit things will want well airing, Annie," she said, when the men were going back to work. "Don't you bother about that, my dear," said Annie. One night Annie and Paul were alone. Nurse was upstairs. "She'll live over Christmas," said Annie. They were both full of horror. "She won't," he replied grimly. "I s'll give her morphia." "Which?" said Annie.
Put those things away, there's no time to be painting now. What time is there a train? I know I s'll have to go trailing to Keston. I s'll have to leave that bedroom." "I can finish it," said Paul. "You needn't. I shall catch the seven o'clock back, I should think. Oh, my blessed heart, the fuss and commotion he'll make!
Some of 'em want him whether they're a majority, I don't know." She watched him closely. "Majority! I'd give 'em majority. They want to get rid of you, and make a fool of you, and you want to break your heart over it. Strikes me you need something to break your heart over." He laughed silently. "Nay," he said. "I s'll never break my heart."
Radford. "Thank you," he replied. "Nay, you needn't thank me," she answered. "I s'll be glad to smell a bit of smoke in th' 'ouse again. A house o' women is as dead as a house wi' no fire, to my thinkin'. I'm not a spider as likes a corner to myself. I like a man about, if he's only something to snap at." Clara began to work.
Her face, white and heavy, was like a mask, almost sullen. She looked in the fire, forgetting him. 'You want March, he said he worried endlessly over her 'to rip off your old leaves. I s'll have to be March, he laughed. She ignored him again because of his presumption. He waited awhile, then broke out once more. 'You must start again you must.
"I've done with 'em." At about four o'clock he went. "I shall see you both later," he said, as he shook hands. "I suppose so," said Dawes. "An' perhaps one day I s'll be able to pay you back the money as " "I shall come for it, you'll see," laughed Paul. "I s'll be on the rocks before I'm very much older." "Ay well " said Dawes. "Good-bye," he said to Clara.
Annie cried her eyes up in the kitchen, on leaving her mother. Mrs. Morel cried a little, then patted her on the back and said: "But don't cry, child, he'll be good to you." Morel stamped and said she was a fool to go and tie herself up. Leonard looked white and overwrought. Mrs. Morel said to him: "I s'll trust her to you, my lad, and hold you responsible for her."
'I s'll kill you! he muttered, and raised the revolver. My throat became suddenly dry. I tried to make the motion of swallowing, and could not. And looking at the revolver, I perceived in a swift revelation the vast folly of my inexperience. Since he was already drunk, why had I not allowed him to drink more, to drink himself into a stupor?
