The year is out in September, so matters were getting desperate, when at last I thought of this plan! I felt sure that if a man who was a real judge of literary power met Ron face to face, and got to know him, he would realise his gifts, and be willing to give him a chance. It was no use trying in London in the midst of the full pressure of work, but in the country everything is different.
"But I can't! How can I, when he runs away the moment I appear? I made Ron go fishing with him one day, but he went off and left him alone, and now it's no use persuading any more. Ron says it is only waste of time!
You have done Edie a world of good. What can I do for you in return? I am at your service." Margot pulled forward the chair that her sister had chosen as the least lumpy which the room afforded, and seated herself before him, returning his glance with an odd mixture of mischief and embarrassment. "It's about Ron. The year of probation is nearly over." "I know it."
Here was a place where a door could be cut at the back, and a shed built for a summer kitchen for the coolness, you understand. And here were two stoves one for the cooking, and the other in the living-room for the warming, both of the newest. "An' look dat roof. Dat's lak' we make dem in Canada. De rain ron off easy, and de sun not shine too strong at de door. Ain't dat nice?
Goodness, Father, how a rid'th! he's over wall already! Ron, Jack! ron then! A'll get to the river! No, a wain't! Goodness, Father! There's Mr. Cary cotched mun! A's down, a's down!" "Is he dead?" asked Rose, shuddering. "Iss, fegs, dead as nits! and Mr. Cary off his horse, standing overthwart mun! No, a bain't! A's up now. Suspose he was hit wi' the flat. Whatever is Mr. Cary tu?
Below this the mountains crowded still closer in to the stream, seeming to rise almost directly from the edge of the banks and to tower nearly two thousand feet in height. "We must be getting close to the big portage now," said Rob to Moise, as they reached this part of the river. "Yes," said Moise, "pretty soon no more water we'll could ron." Moise's speech was almost prophetic.
To- night she felt a moral conviction that she would soon fall asleep under the strain, and making an excuse of writing home, escaped to her own room, scribbled a few words on the back of a postcard, wrapped herself in her golf cape, and went out into the road in search of Ron. It was still broad daylight, but now the sky was grey and colourless, and the mountains had ceased to smile.
We must tell her, to spare her that interview. She need never see him again." "I say, Ron! Did you see her go quite pink when she told us his name? And in spite of the trouble to-day, she looks half a dozen years younger than when she went away. You know she does, old man!" "Oh, that's the rest-cure," explained Ronnie, but without much conviction. "Rest-cures always have that effect.
"And it will be a saving of useless trouble, Ron, if you never ask me again." Thus the days went by; and, though she always seemed gently pleased to see them both, no possible opening had been given to Ronald for assuming the rôle of manly comforter. "I shall give it up," said Ronnie at last, in bitterness of spirit; "I tell you, I shall give it up; and marry the duchess!"
The men who voark shall have and shall eat; and the men that will not voark, they shall sdarfe. But no man need sdarfe. He will go to the State, and the State will see that he haf voark, and that he haf foodt. All the roadts and mills and mines and landts shall be the beople's and be ron by the beople for the beople.
