"
Yes
,
yes
,
"
Clyde
said
reflectively
.
"
I
have
thought
since
it
must
have
been
that
way
.
"
The
Reverend
McMillan
paused
and
to
hearten
himself
for
this
task
began
to
pray
--
but
silently
--
and
to
himself
:
"
Our
Father
who
art
in
Heaven
--
hallowed
be
Thy
name
.
Thy
Kingdom
come
,
Thy
will
be
done
--
on
earth
as
it
is
in
Heaven
.
"
He
stirred
again
after
a
time
.
"
Ah
,
Clyde
.
The
mercy
of
God
is
equal
to
every
sin
.
I
know
it
.
He
sent
His
own
son
to
die
for
the
evil
of
the
world
.
It
must
be
so
--
if
you
will
but
repent
.
But
that
thought
!
That
deed
!
You
have
much
to
pray
for
,
my
son
--
much
.
Oh
,
yes
.
For
in
the
sight
of
God
,
I
fear
--
yes
--
And
yet
--
I
must
pray
for
enlightenment
.
This
is
a
strange
and
terrible
story
.
There
are
so
many
phases
.
It
may
be
but
pray
.
Pray
with
me
now
that
you
and
I
may
have
light
.
"
He
bowed
his
head
.
He
sat
for
minutes
in
silence
--
while
Clyde
,
also
,
in
silence
and
troubled
doubt
,
sat
before
him
.
Then
,
after
a
time
he
began
:
"
Oh
,
Lord
,
rebuke
me
not
in
thine
anger
;
neither
chasten
me
in
Thy
hot
displeasure
.
Have
mercy
on
me
,
O
Lord
,
for
I
am
weak
.
Heal
me
in
my
shame
and
sorrow
for
my
soul
is
wounded
and
dark
in
Thy
sight
.
Oh
,
let
the
wickedness
of
my
heart
pass
.
Lead
me
,
O
God
,
into
Thy
righteousness
.
Let
the
wickedness
of
my
heart
pass
and
remember
it
not
.
"
Clyde
--
his
head
down
--
sat
still
--
very
still
.
He
,
himself
,
was
at
last
shaken
and
mournful
.
No
doubt
his
sin
was
very
great
.
Very
,
very
terrible
!
And
yet
--
But
then
,
the
Reverend
McMillan
ceasing
and
rising
,
he
,
too
,
rose
,
the
while
McMillan
added
:
"
But
I
must
go
now
.
I
must
think
--
pray
.
This
has
troubled
and
touched
me
deeply
.
Oh
,
very
,
Lord
.
And
you
--
my
son
--
you
return
and
pray
--
alone
.
Repent
.
Ask
of
God
on
your
knees
His
forgiveness
and
He
will
hear
you
.
Yes
,
He
will
.
And
to-morrow
--
or
as
soon
as
I
honestly
can
--
I
will
come
again
.
But
do
not
despair
.
Pray
always
--
for
in
prayer
alone
,
prayer
and
contrition
,
is
salvation
.
Rest
in
the
strength
of
Him
who
holds
the
world
in
the
hollow
of
His
hand
.
In
His
abounding
strength
and
mercy
,
is
peace
and
forgiveness
.
Oh
,
yes
.
"
He
struck
the
iron
door
with
a
small
key
ring
that
he
carried
and
at
once
the
guard
,
hearing
it
,
returned
.
Then
having
escorted
Clyde
to
his
cell
and
seen
him
once
more
shut
within
that
restraining
cage
,
he
took
his
own
departure
,
heavily
and
miserably
burdened
with
all
that
he
had
heard
.
And
Clyde
was
left
to
brood
on
all
he
had
said
--
and
how
it
had
affected
McMillan
,
as
well
as
himself
.
His
new
friend
's
stricken
mood
.
The
obvious
pain
and
horror
with
which
he
viewed
it
all
.
Was
he
really
and
truly
guilty
?
Did
he
really
and
truly
deserve
to
die
for
this
?
Was
that
what
the
Reverend
McMillan
would
decide
?
And
in
the
face
of
all
his
tenderness
and
mercy
?
And
another
week
in
which
,
moved
by
Clyde
's
seeming
contrition
,
and
all
the
confusing
and
extenuating
circumstances
of
his
story
,
and
having
wrestled
most
earnestly
with
every
moral
aspect
of
it
,
the
Reverend
McMillan
once
more
before
his
cell
door
--
but
only
to
say
that
however
liberal
or
charitable
his
interpretation
of
the
facts
,
as
at
last
Clyde
had
truthfully
pictured
them
,
still
he
could
not
feel
that
either
primarily
or
secondarily
could
he
be
absolved
from
guilt
for
her
death
.
He
had
plotted
--
had
he
not
?
He
had
not
gone
to
her
rescue
when
he
might
have
.
He
had
wished
her
dead
and
afterwards
had
not
been
sorry
.
In
the
blow
that
had
brought
about
the
upsetting
of
the
boat
had
been
some
anger
.
Also
in
the
mood
that
had
not
permitted
him
to
strike
.
The
facts
that
he
had
been
influenced
by
the
beauty
and
position
of
Miss
X
to
the
plotting
of
this
deed
,
and
,
after
his
evil
relations
with
Roberta
,
that
she
had
been
determined
he
should
marry
her
,
far
from
being
points
in
extenuation
of
his
actions
,
were
really
further
evidence
of
his
general
earthly
sin
and
guilt
.
Before
the
Lord
then
he
had
sinned
in
many
ways
.
In
those
dark
days
,
alas
,
as
Mr.
McMillan
saw
it
,
he
was
little
more
than
a
compound
of
selfishness
and
unhallowed
desire
and
fornication
against
the
evil
of
which
Paul
had
thundered
.
It
had
endured
to
the
end
and
had
not
changed
--
until
he
had
been
taken
by
the
law
.
He
had
not
repented
--
not
even
there
at
Bear
Lake
where
he
had
time
for
thought
.
And
besides
,
had
he
not
,
from
the
beginning
to
end
,
bolstered
it
with
false
and
evil
pretenses
?
Verily
.
