"
My
dear
fellow
,
"
Mr.
Carmichael
answered
cheerily
,
"
the
sooner
you
cease
tormenting
yourself
the
better
it
will
be
for
you
.
If
you
possessed
all
the
wealth
of
all
the
Indies
,
you
could
not
set
right
all
the
discomforts
in
the
world
,
and
if
you
began
to
refurnish
all
the
attics
in
this
square
,
there
would
still
remain
all
the
attics
in
all
the
other
squares
and
streets
to
put
in
order
.
And
there
you
are
!
"
Mr.
Carrisford
sat
and
bit
his
nails
as
he
looked
into
the
glowing
bed
of
coals
in
the
grate
.
"
Do
you
suppose
,
"
he
said
slowly
,
after
a
pause
--
"
do
you
think
it
is
possible
that
the
other
child
--
the
child
I
never
cease
thinking
of
,
I
believe
--
could
be
--
could
POSSIBLY
be
reduced
to
any
such
condition
as
the
poor
little
soul
next
door
?
"
Mr.
Carmichael
looked
at
him
uneasily
.
He
knew
that
the
worst
thing
the
man
could
do
for
himself
,
for
his
reason
and
his
health
,
was
to
begin
to
think
in
the
particular
way
of
this
particular
subject
.
"
If
the
child
at
Madame
Pascal
's
school
in
Paris
was
the
one
you
are
in
search
of
,
"
he
answered
soothingly
,
"
she
would
seem
to
be
in
the
hands
of
people
who
can
afford
to
take
care
of
her
.
They
adopted
her
because
she
had
been
the
favorite
companion
of
their
little
daughter
who
died
.
They
had
no
other
children
,
and
Madame
Pascal
said
that
they
were
extremely
well-to-do
Russians
.
"
"
And
the
wretched
woman
actually
did
not
know
where
they
had
taken
her
!
"
exclaimed
Mr.
Carrisford
.
Mr.
Carmichael
shrugged
his
shoulders
.
"
She
was
a
shrewd
,
worldly
Frenchwoman
,
and
was
evidently
only
too
glad
to
get
the
child
so
comfortably
off
her
hands
when
the
father
's
death
left
her
totally
unprovided
for
.
Women
of
her
type
do
not
trouble
themselves
about
the
futures
of
children
who
might
prove
burdens
.
The
adopted
parents
apparently
disappeared
and
left
no
trace
.
"
"
But
you
say
'
IF
the
child
was
the
one
I
am
in
search
of
.
You
say
'
if
.
'
We
are
not
sure
.
There
was
a
difference
in
the
name
.
"
"
Madame
Pascal
pronounced
it
as
if
it
were
Carew
instead
of
Crewe
--
but
that
might
be
merely
a
matter
of
pronunciation
.
The
circumstances
were
curiously
similar
.
An
English
officer
in
India
had
placed
his
motherless
little
girl
at
the
school
.
He
had
died
suddenly
after
losing
his
fortune
.
"
Mr.
Carmichael
paused
a
moment
,
as
if
a
new
thought
had
occurred
to
him
.
"
Are
you
SURE
the
child
was
left
at
a
school
in
Paris
?
Are
you
sure
it
was
Paris
?
"
