A knot of three policemen in
conflict with her staggered toward Ann Veronica’s attendants and distracted their
attention. He knew. Her aunt did not object to capital punishment or war, or the industrial system
or casual wards, or flogging of criminals or the Congo Free State, because none
of these things really got hold of her imagination; but she did object, she did not
like, she could not bear to think of people not having and enjoying their meals. We were
talking about the suffrage—and I rather scoffed. Besides, she had
admitted her identity. Not far from the entrance, on the left,
was a sort of screen, or partition-wall, reaching from the floor to the ceiling,
formed of thick oaken planks riveted together by iron bolts, and studded with
broad-headed nails. Ramage talked always about women or some woman’s concern, and very much
about Ann Veronica’s own outlook upon life. I owe his mother one, and will repay
the debt, with interest, to her son. Before he could draw in the rein, his steed—startled apparently
by some object undistinguishable by the rider,—swerved with such suddenness
as to unseat him, and precipitate him on the ground. On the day he carried the manuscript to Copeley's he brought back a packet of
letters, magazines, and newspapers. ‘Are you going to come quietly, mademoiselle?’ he
demanded with grim determination.
