He
did
not
say
much
for
the
rest
of
the
evening
,
but
several
times
Mr.
Van
Wyk
detected
a
faint
smile
of
assurance
flitting
under
the
heavy
mustache
.
Later
on
Captain
Whalley
would
now
and
then
consent
to
dine
"
at
the
house
.
"
He
could
even
be
induced
to
drink
a
glass
of
wine
.
"
Do
n't
think
I
am
afraid
of
it
,
my
good
sir
,
"
he
explained
.
"
There
was
a
very
good
reason
why
I
should
give
it
up
.
"
On
another
occasion
,
leaning
back
at
ease
,
he
remarked
,
"
You
have
treated
me
most
--
most
humanely
,
my
dear
Mr.
Van
Wyk
,
from
the
very
first
.
"
"
You
'll
admit
there
was
some
merit
,
"
Mr.
Van
Wyk
hinted
slyly
.
"
An
associate
of
that
excellent
Massy
...
Well
,
well
,
my
dear
captain
,
I
wo
n't
say
a
word
against
him
.
"
"
It
would
be
no
use
your
saying
anything
against
him
,
"
Captain
Whalley
affirmed
a
little
moodily
.
"
As
I
've
told
you
before
,
my
life
--
my
work
,
is
necessary
,
not
for
myself
alone
.
I
ca
n't
choose
"
...
He
paused
,
turned
the
glass
before
him
right
round
...
"
I
have
an
only
child
--
a
daughter
.
"
The
ample
downward
sweep
of
his
arm
over
the
table
seemed
to
suggest
a
small
girl
at
a
vast
distance
.
"
I
hope
to
see
her
once
more
before
I
die
.
Meantime
it
's
enough
to
know
that
she
has
me
sound
and
solid
,
thank
God
.
You
ca
n't
understand
how
one
feels
.
Bone
of
my
bone
,
flesh
of
my
flesh
;
the
very
image
of
my
poor
wife
.
Well
,
she
...
"
Again
he
paused
,
then
pronounced
stoically
the
words
,
"
She
has
a
hard
struggle
.
"
And
his
head
fell
on
his
breast
,
his
eyebrows
remained
knitted
,
as
by
an
effort
of
meditation
.
But
generally
his
mind
seemed
steeped
in
the
serenity
of
boundless
trust
in
a
higher
power
.
Mr
Van
Wyk
wondered
sometimes
how
much
of
it
was
due
to
the
splendid
vitality
of
the
man
,
to
the
bodily
vigor
which
seems
to
impart
something
of
its
force
to
the
soul
.
But
he
had
learned
to
like
him
very
much
.
