M. Le Chatelier, M. Charpy, M. Dumas, M. Osmond, in France; Sir W. Roberts Austen and Mr. Stansfield, in England, have given manifold examples of the fertility of these methods. The question, moreover, has had a new light thrown upon it by the application of the principles of thermodynamics and of the phase rule. Alloys are generally known in the two states of solid and liquid.
You see there are many ways in which you too can show true unselfishness in the cause of that Master whom I know you truly love, though he has laid you aside from much active work for him." Miss Stansfield did not answer for a time; she looked pained, but the bitterness had passed away from her countenance.
And young Mr Wilder too to think of his saying that `you've played your cards well. Really, it's too bad. But, my dear Miss Stansfield, if I were you I wouldn't mind it." The old lady paused, expecting to see a blush of vexation and annoyance on her young companion's face; but she was disappointed. "Thank you, Mrs Tinderley," replied Mary Stansfield.
Nasmyth says of him that you could see the man's character in whatever work he turned out; and as the connoisseur in art will exclaim at sight of a picture, "That is Turner," or "That is Stansfield," detecting the hand of the master in it, so the experienced mechanician, at sight of one of his machines or engines, will be equally ready to exclaim, "That is Maudslay;" for the characteristic style of the master-mind is as clear to the experienced eye in the case of the finished machine as the touches of the artist's pencil are in the case of the finished picture.
He'd had little rest, poor chap, through shepherding his company ... and now he had knocked under. The company swayed and hesitated. Some of them faced round. It was touch and go. "Steady there! Steady! Come on, men;" said Stansfield, the little company lieutenant, as the men wavered on the grey edge of collapse. "Steady that company; what in hell's the matter with 'em.
Then follow a lot more scrimmages, with similar results. It is awfully slow for the spectators, but Stansfield rejoices over it, and the County men chafe. "Can't you let it out there? Play looser, and let it through," says their captain. Loose it is.
I have the good vicar's full consent and approbation; he will gladly welcome any such helper as I may find for the post. It will be a true labour of love; and, without any more words I am come to ask Miss Stansfield if she will spare her niece for the good work, and Miss Mary if she will be willing to undertake it."
I trust that you will strictly obey the orders of your commander; and will remember that you will be of far more use, in carrying them out, than in merely helping to swell the number in a pitched battle. I have every confidence in Monsieur Stansfield. He has set a noble example to the youths of this country, in thus undertaking arduous and fatiguing work, which is not without its dangers.
At present there is nothing requiring either you or your scouts, Monsieur Stansfield, and after the good service that they have rendered, it is but fair that they should have a short rest." Patsey was delighted when her husband and Leigh arrived.
"The Doctor ought to put a stop to it," said Stansfield, who this year occupied the proud position of captain of the fifteen. "Why, we've not got a single man worth twopence behind the scrimmage!" This was gratifying for Loman, one of the council of war, who usually played quarter or half-back in the matches.
