The
thinking
has
to
be
done
largely
by
people
who
are
not
directly
productive
—
by
people
who
appear
to
be
living
almost
entirely
on
the
work
of
others
,
but
are
,
in
fact
,
a
long
-
term
investment
.
Learning
grew
up
in
the
cities
,
and
in
great
institutions
—
it
was
the
labor
of
the
countryside
that
supported
them
.
Similarly
,
we
must
become
big
enough
to
support
at
very
least
the
leader
,
the
teacher
,
and
the
doctor
.
"
"
Well
?
"
said
Stephen
after
a
pause
.
"
I
’
ve
been
thinking
of
that
place
Bill
and
I
saw
at
Tynsham
.
We
’
ve
told
you
about
it
,
The
woman
who
is
tying
to
run
it
wanted
help
,
and
she
wanted
it
badly
.
She
has
about
fifty
or
sixty
people
on
her
hands
,
and
a
dozen
or
so
of
them
able
to
see
.
That
way
she
can
’
t
do
it
.
She
knows
she
can
’
t
—
but
she
wasn
’
t
going
to
admit
it
to
us
.
She
wasn
’
t
going
to
put
herself
in
our
debt
by
asking
us
to
stay
.
But
she
’
d
be
very
glad
if
we
were
to
go
back
there
after
all
and
ask
to
be
admitted
.
"
"
Good
Lord
,
"
I
said
.
"
You
don
’
t
think
she
deliberately
put
us
on
the
wrong
tack
?
"
"
I
don
’
t
know
.
I
may
be
doing
her
an
injustice
,
but
it
is
an
odd
thing
that
we
’
ve
not
seen
or
heard
a
single
sign
of
Beadley
and
Company
,
isn
’
t
it
?
Anyhow
,
whether
she
meant
it
or
not
,
that
’
s
the
way
it
works
,
because
I
’
ve
decided
to
go
back
there
.
If
you
want
my
reasons
,
here
they
are
—
the
two
main
ones
.
First
,
unless
that
place
is
taken
in
hand
,
it
’
s
going
to
crash
,
which
would
be
a
waste
and
a
shame
for
all
those
people
there
.
The
other
is
that
it
is
much
better
situated
than
this
.
It
has
a
farm
which
should
not
take
a
lot
of
putting
in
order
;
it
is
practically
self
-
contained
,
but
could
be
extended
if
necessary
.
This
place
would
cost
a
lot
more
labor
to
start
and
to
work
.
"
More
important
,
it
is
big
enough
to
afford
time
for
teach
-
mg
—
teaching
both
the
present
blind
there
and
the
sighted
children
they
’
ll
have
later
on
.
I
believe
it
can
be
done
,
and
I
’
ll
do
my
best
to
do
it
—
and
if
the
haughty
Miss
Durrant
can
’
t
take
it
,
she
can
go
jump
in
the
river
.
"
Now
the
point
is
this
.
I
think
I
could
do
it
as
it
stands
—
but
I
know
that
if
the
lot
of
us
were
to
go
we
could
get
the
place
reorganized
and
running
in
a
few
weeks
.
Then
we
’
d
be
living
in
a
community
that
’
s
going
to
grow
and
make
a
damned
good
attempt
to
hold
its
own
.
The
alternative
is
to
stay
in
a
small
party
which
is
going
to
decline
and
get
more
desperately
lonely
as
time
goes
on
.
So
,
how
about
it
?
"
There
was
some
debate
and
inquiry
for
details
,
but
not
much
doubt
.
Those
of
us
who
had
been
out
an
the
search
had
had
a
glimpse
of
the
awful
loneliness
that
might
come
.
No
one
was
attached
to
the
present
house
.
It
had
been
chosen
for
defensible
qualities
,
and
had
little
more
to
commend
it
.
Most
of
them
could
feel
the
oppression
of
isolation
growing
round
them
already
.
The
thought
of
wider
and
more
varied
company
was
in
itself
attractive
.
The
end
of
an
hour
found
the
discussion
dealing
with
questions
of
transport
and
details
of
the
removal
,
and
the
decision
to
adopt
Coker
’
s
suggestion
had
more
or
less
made
itself
.
Only
Stephen
’
s
girl
friend
was
doubtful
.
"
This
place
Tynsham
—
it
’
s
pretty
much
off
the
map
?
"
she
asked
uneasily
.
