"
Oh
,
you
would
have
become
Archbishop
of
Sydney
,
a
nice
post
and
an
important
one
,
"
said
His
Eminence
with
a
golden
smile
.
"
But
the
ways
of
our
lives
lie
not
in
our
hands
.
We
met
because
it
was
meant
to
be
,
just
as
it
is
meant
that
we
work
together
now
for
the
Holy
Father
.
"
"
I
ca
n't
see
success
at
the
end
of
the
road
,
"
said
Archbishop
Ralph
.
"
I
think
the
result
will
be
what
the
result
of
impartiality
always
is
.
No
one
will
like
us
,
and
everyone
will
condemn
us
"
"
I
know
that
,
so
does
His
Holiness
.
But
we
can
do
nothing
else
.
And
there
is
nothing
to
prevent
our
praying
in
private
for
the
speedy
downfall
of
Il
Duce
and
Der
Führer
,
is
there
?
"
"
Do
you
really
think
there
will
be
war
?
"
"
I
can
not
see
any
possibility
of
avoiding
it
.
"
His
Eminence
's
cat
stalked
out
of
the
sunny
corner
where
it
had
been
sleeping
,
and
jumped
upon
the
scarlet
shimmering
lap
a
little
awkwardly
,
for
it
was
old
.
"
Ah
,
Sheba
!
Say
hello
to
your
old
friend
Ralph
,
whom
you
used
to
prefer
to
me
.
"
The
satanic
yellow
eyes
regarded
Archbishop
Ralph
haughtily
,
and
closed
.
Both
men
laughed
.
Drogheda
had
a
wireless
set
.
Progress
had
finally
come
to
Gillanbone
in
the
shape
of
an
Australian
Broadcasting
Commission
radio
station
,
and
at
long
last
there
was
something
to
rival
the
party
line
for
mass
entertainment
.
The
wireless
itself
was
a
rather
ugly
object
in
a
walnut
case
which
sat
on
a
small
exquisite
cabinet
in
the
drawing
room
,
its
car-battery
power
source
hidden
in
the
cupboard
underneath
.
Every
morning
Mrs.
Smith
,
Fee
and
Meggie
turned
it
on
to
listen
to
the
Gillanbone
district
news
and
weather
,
and
every
evening
Fee
and
Meggie
turned
it
on
to
listen
to
the
ABC
national
news
.
How
strange
it
was
to
be
instantaneously
connected
with
Outside
;
to
hear
of
floods
,
fires
,
rainfall
in
every
part
of
the
nation
,
an
uneasy
Europe
,
Australian
politics
,
without
benefit
of
Bluey
Williams
and
his
aged
newspapers
.
