"
I
stared
at
him
in
astonishment
.
732
"
'
Yes
,
it
was
the
devil
himself
.
We
have
not
had
a
peaceful
hour
since
--
not
one
.
The
governor
has
never
held
up
his
head
from
that
evening
,
and
now
the
life
has
been
crushed
out
of
him
and
his
heart
broken
,
all
through
this
accursed
Hudson
.
'
733
"
'
What
power
had
he
,
then
?

"
'
Ah
,
that
is
what
I
would
give
so
much
to
know
.
The
kindly
,
charitable
good
old
governor
--
how
could
he
have
fallen
into
the
clutches
of
such
a
ruffian
!
But
I
am
so
glad
that
you
have
come
,
Holmes
.
I
trust
very
much
to
your
judgment
and
discretion
,
and
I
know
that
you
will
advise
me
for
the
best
.
'
735
"
We
were
dashing
along
the
smooth
white
country
road
,
with
the
long
stretch
of
the
Broads
in
front
of
us
glimmering
in
the
red
light
of
the
setting
sun
.
736
From
a
grove
upon
our
left
I
could
already
see
the
high
chimneys
and
the
flagstaff
which
marked
the
squire
's
dwelling
.
737
"
'
My
father
made
the
fellow
gardener
,
'
-
said
my
companion
,
'
and
then
,
as
that
did
not
satisfy
him
,
he
was
promoted
to
be
butler
.
The
house
seemed
to
be
at
his
mercy
,
and
he
wandered
about
and
did
what
he
chose
in
it
.
The
maids
complained
of
his
drunken
habits
and
his
vile
language
.
The
dad
raised
their
wages
all
round
to
recompense
them
for
the
annoyance
.
The
fellow
would
take
the
boat
and
my
father
's
best
gun
and
treat
himself
to
little
shooting
trips
.
And
all
this
with
such
a
sneering
,
leering
,
insolent
face
that
I
would
have
knocked
him
down
twenty
times
over
if
he
had
been
a
man
of
my
own
age
.
I
tell
you
,
Holmes
,
I
have
had
to
keep
a
tight
hold
upon
myself
all
this
time
and
now
I
am
asking
myself
whether
,
if
I
had
let
myself
go
a
little
more
,
I
might
not
have
been
a
wiser
man
.

'
Well
,
matters
went
from
bad
to
worse
with
us
,
and
this
animal
Hudson
became
more
and
more
intrusive
,
until
at
last
,
on
his
making
some
insolent
reply
to
my
father
in
my
presence
one
day
,
I
took
him
by
the
shoulders
and
turned
him
out
of
the
room
.
He
slunk
away
with
a
livid
face
and
two
venomous
eyes
which
uttered
more
threats
than
his
tongue
could
do
.
I
do
n't
know
what
passed
between
the
poor
dad
and
him
after
that
,
but
the
dad
came
to
me
next
day
and
asked
me
whether
I
would
mind
apologizing
to
Hudson
.
739
I
refused
,
as
you
can
imagine
,
and
asked
my
father
how
he
could
allow
such
a
wretch
to
take
such
liberties
with
himself
and
his
household
.
740
"
"
Ah
,
my
boy
,
"
said
he
,
"
it
is
all
very
well
to
talk
,
but
you
do
n't
know
how
I
am
placed
.
But
you
shall
know
,
Victor
.
I
'
ll
see
that
you
shall
know
,
come
what
may
.
You
would
n't
believe
harm
of
your
poor
old
father
,
would
you
,
lad
?
"
He
was
very
much
moved
and
shut
himself
up
in
the
study
all
day
,
where
I
could
see
through
the
window
that
he
was
writing
busily
.
