Magnus
rose
to
his
feet
.
He
made
no
gesture
.
Erect
as
a
cavalry
officer
,
tall
,
thin
,
commanding
,
he
dominated
the
crowd
in
an
instant
.
There
was
a
moment
’
s
hush
.
“
Gentlemen
,
”
he
said
,
“
if
organisation
is
a
good
word
,
moderation
is
a
better
one
.
The
matter
is
too
grave
for
haste
.
I
would
suggest
that
we
each
and
severally
return
to
our
respective
homes
for
the
night
,
sleep
over
what
has
happened
,
and
convene
again
to
-
morrow
,
when
we
are
calmer
and
can
approach
this
affair
in
a
more
judicious
mood
.
As
for
the
honour
with
which
you
would
inform
me
,
I
must
affirm
that
that
,
too
,
is
a
matter
for
grave
deliberation
.
This
League
is
but
a
name
as
yet
.
To
accept
control
of
an
organisation
whose
principles
are
not
yet
fixed
is
a
heavy
responsibility
.
I
shrink
from
it
—
”
But
he
was
allowed
to
proceed
no
farther
.
A
storm
of
protest
developed
.
There
were
shouts
of
:
“
No
,
no
.
The
League
to
-
night
and
Derrick
for
President
.
”
“
We
have
been
moderate
too
long
.
”
“
The
League
first
,
principles
afterward
.
