The first result from Abner's dinner with the Whylands was that Medora, thus formulated by the sympathetic and appreciative Edith, now became definitely crystallized in his mind; the second was that he changed his boarding-house. Mere crudity for its own sake no longer charmed.
All this study would explain much that was obscure and justify much that appeared reprehensible. Such a book would find place and reason for Pences and for Whylands. Indulgence would come with understanding, and reconciliation to repellent ideals and to the men that embodied them might not unnaturally follow.
And his fortnight with the Whylands had reconciled him to more things than wine. "Let me be proud of you," said Medora. Abner shook to his centre. Had he married a Delilah and a Beatrice in one? "And don't let's talk any more about our book than they talk of theirs," she counselled to end with.
Abner helped her down with an earnest endeavour not to seem too attentive. "Come," she said; "let's see how those pies have turned out Cordelia is so absent-minded." And Abner followed gladly. Christmas-Day came with a slight flurry of snow. There was also a slight flurry in society: the Whylands drove over to the farmhouse for dinner.
The Whylands were also of those who climbed the granite steps. Mrs. Whyland had required a little urging, as on some previous occasions. "I hope you won't make difficulties," her husband had said. "Mrs. Pence is a nice enough woman, as women go; and since my new relations with her husband...." "Well, if you think it necessary," she returned resignedly.
