“
Out
.
Too
fine
a
day
to
be
cooped
up
in
the
house
.
”
“
Come
on
then
,
you
’
ve
done
enough
gardening
for
to
-
day
.
‘
The
labourer
is
worthy
of
his
hire
’
,
you
know
.
Come
and
be
refreshed
.
”
“
Well
,
”
said
Miss
Howard
,
drawing
off
her
gardening
gloves
,
“
I
’
m
inclined
to
agree
with
you
.
”
She
led
the
way
round
the
house
to
where
tea
was
spread
under
the
shade
of
a
large
sycamore
.
A
figure
rose
from
one
of
the
basket
chairs
,
and
came
a
few
steps
to
meet
us
.
“
My
wife
,
Hastings
,
”
said
John
.
I
shall
never
forget
my
first
sight
of
Mary
Cavendish
.
Her
tall
,
slender
form
,
outlined
against
the
bright
light
;
the
vivid
sense
of
slumbering
fire
that
seemed
to
find
expression
only
in
those
wonderful
tawny
eyes
of
hers
,
remarkable
eyes
,
different
from
any
other
woman
’
s
that
I
have
ever
known
;
the
intense
power
of
stillness
she
possessed
,
which
nevertheless
conveyed
the
impression
of
a
wild
untamed
spirit
in
an
exquisitely
civilised
body
—
all
these
things
are
burnt
into
my
memory
.
I
shall
never
forget
them
.
She
greeted
me
with
a
few
words
of
pleasant
welcome
in
a
low
clear
voice
,
and
I
sank
into
a
basket
chair
feeling
distinctly
glad
that
I
had
accepted
John
’
s
invitation
.
Mrs
.
Cavendish
gave
me
some
tea
,
and
her
few
quiet
remarks
heightened
my
first
impression
of
her
as
a
thoroughly
fascinating
woman
.
An
appreciative
listener
is
always
stimulating
,
and
I
described
,
in
a
humorous
manner
,
certain
incidents
of
my
Convalescent
Home
,
in
a
way
which
,
I
flatter
myself
,
greatly
amused
my
hostess
.
John
,
of
course
,
good
fellow
though
he
is
,
could
hardly
be
called
a
brilliant
conversationalist
.
At
that
moment
a
well
remembered
voice
floated
through
the
open
French
window
near
at
hand
:
“
Then
you
’
ll
write
to
the
Princess
after
tea
,
Alfred
?
I
’
ll
write
to
Lady
Tadminster
for
the
second
day
,
myself
.
Or
shall
we
wait
until
we
hear
from
the
Princess
?
In
case
of
a
refusal
,
Lady
Tadminster
might
open
it
the
first
day
,
and
Mrs
.
Crosbie
the
second
.
