They found themselves deprived at one fell swoop both of the influence of their most energetic supporter and of the certainty of coming into power at Wiseman's death. And in the meantime, Manning was redoubling his energies at Bayswater. Though his Oblates had been checked over St. Edmund's, there was still no lack of work for them to do.
Unlike the northern sandstone district, where the road towards Wiseman's ferry could be made only by following one continuous ridge, the surface being intersected by deep and precipitous ravines, we were enabled here, the surface rock being trap, to travel along a perfectly straight road over a gently undulating surface. The soil in this district is good, consisting chiefly of decomposed trap.
James Macarthur accompanied me a few miles on the road, when we parted with regret; and I set forth on my journey in the direction of the Hawkesbury, along the road leading to the ferry, across that river at Wiseman's.
He left the impression upon his wife and glad enough she was to have such an impression that Eastbourne was a well-conducted town mainly as a result of P. C. Wiseman's ceaseless and tireless efforts. "I never had a clew yet that I never follered to the bitter end," said the preening constable. "You remember when Raggett's orchard was robbed who found the thieves?"
After he had been given some nourishment he completely recovered from his spell of weakness which be called: "Big fool all same woman," quite omitting to state that he had traveled almost eighty miles since the preceding midnight. The boys sat late listening to what the black had to tell of the attack on the camp of Professor Wiseman's treachery and death and of the carrying off of the boys.
Wiseman's encyclical, dated 'from without the Flaminian Gate', in which he announced the new departure, was greeted in England by a storm of indignation, culminating in the famous and furibund letter of Lord John Russell, then Prime Minister, against the insolence of the 'Papal Aggression'. Though the particular point against which the outcry was raised the English territorial titles of the new Roman bishops was an insignificant one, the instinct of Lord John and of the English people was in reality sound enough.
Look at Wiseman's 'Recollections of the Popes. Good-by God bless you!" The servant who opened the house door for Father Benwell was agreeably surprised by the Papist's cheerfulness. "He isn't half a bad fellow," the man announced among his colleagues. "Give me half-a-crown, and went out humming a tune." To the Secretary, S. J., Rome. I BEG to acknowledge the receipt of your letter.
When I treat of the ceremonies of the Holy Week, I merely treat of their effect, and do not challenge the good and learned Dr. Wiseman's interpretation of their meaning.
It was Constable Wiseman's firm conviction that Frank Merrill had escaped through the incompetence of the crown authorities, and there were moments in his domestic circle when he was bitter and even insubordinate on the subject. "You still think Mr. Merrill was guilty?" asked Saul Arthur Mann as he took his leave of the other.
The President was informed that the Egyptian nationalists were using his 14 points as meaning that the President thought that Egypt should have the right to control her own destinies, and therefore have independence, and that they were using this to foment revolution; that since the President had provoked this trouble by the 14 points, they thought that he should allay it by the statement that we would recognize the British protectorate, and as I remember Sir William Wiseman's statement to me that morning, he said that he had only brought up the matter that morning and that he had got our recognition of the British protectorate before luncheon.
