"Halloa!" cried Jack, looking round, and trying to fix his inebriate gaze upon the
speaker,—"who's that?"
"Your mother," replied Mrs. "Why, Jack Sheppard, the notorious house-breaker,—him as has robbed half
Lunnun, to be sure. "
"Then he has been unfortunate?"
"That's patent enough. It can wait a bit longer. It was dusty, with dirty clothing strewn
about, a cracked basin thick with grime on the rickety dresser, and a film of
grease on the leaded casement. She had not seen Ramage for ten or
eleven days, and she was quite ready for a gossip with him. My father died a year ago, by the way. She was still more stirred
by the idea of the equal citizenship of men and women, by the realization that a
big and growing organization of women were giving form and a generalized
expression to just that personal pride, that aspiration for personal freedom and
respect which had brought her to London; but when she heard Miss Miniver
discoursing on the next step in the suffrage campaign, or read of women
badgering Cabinet Ministers, padlocked to railings, or getting up in a public
meeting to pipe out a demand for votes and be carried out kicking and
screaming, her soul revolted. "
"I'm sure I understand the business of a carpenter much better than he does,"
replied Jack, adroitly adjusting the board, and using the plane with the greatest
rapidity. "Where did you get this from?" asked Wild, greatly surprised at the result of his
investigation. I think that you might break Martin’s
heart if you don’t.
