Hardly had he reached his own study after leaving the Doctor, when Henderson entered with a grave face, and saying, "I am sorry, Kenrick, to be the bearer of this," handed to him a folded sheet of paper.
A generous, intelligent, public-spirited man, he has always been liberal with his purse and his time, and has done much to further educational and philanthropic schemes. Mr. Kenrick belongs to a class some cynical people consider very "cliquey."
"But I think we're keeping too much to the right, Walter," said Kenrick. "Look here," said Walter, stopping; "the truth is and we may just as well be ready for it that we're between two dangers. On the right is Bardlyn rift; on the left we have the sides of Appenfell, and no precipices, but " "I know what you're thinking of the old mines." "Yes; that's why I've been keeping to the right.
"O Walter, I can't die, I can't die yet; and not out on this black sea, away from every one." "From every one but God, Charlie; and I am with you. Cheer up, little brother, God will not desert us." "O Walter, pray to God for you and me and Kenrick | pray to Him for life."
The place on the cliff where Kenrick had descended was observed, but as the traces showed that only one boy had gone down there, the discovery, so far from explaining matters, only rendered them more inexplicable.
From which it will follow that, since the evil to society from lying is very great, the just cause which is to make it allowable, must be very great also. And so Kenrick: "It is confessed by all Catholics that, in the common intercourse of life, all ambiguity of language is to be avoided; but it is debated whether such ambiguity is ever lawful.
What I wanted to say, Kenrick, was only this, and it was a great shame of me not to tell you before; but I see now that I've been a poor tool in the hands of those fellows. Jones made you believe, you know, that Evson had told him all about your home affairs, and about the pony-chaise, and so on," said Tracy, hurrying over the obnoxious subject. "Yes, yes," said Kenrick impatiently.
"It would be of no use, Ken," said Walter; "I mean that we can't row," and he pointed to the broken oar. "Then you have saved me at the risk, perhaps at the cost, of your own lives. O you noble, noble Walter!" said Kenrick, the tears gushing from his eyes. "How awfully terrible this is! I seem to be snatched from death to death.
If any friend could have seen him at that moment, or spoken one word in season, how much pain the poor boy might have been saved! Kenrick happened to cross the court; the moment Walter caught sight of him he sat with head erect and arms folded, but Kenrick was not to be deceived. He had caught one glimpse of Walter first; he saw his eyes wet with tears, and knew that he was in trouble.
"Yes," said Wilton; "but it's all wrong, Ken, I think. Good-bye." He waved his hand, the carriage drove off into the darkening night with the little boy alone, and Kenrick with a sinking heart strolled back to his study.
