’
Miss
Mills
and
her
journal
were
my
sole
consolation
at
this
period
.
To
see
her
,
who
had
seen
Dora
but
a
little
while
before
—
to
trace
the
initial
letter
of
Dora
’
s
name
through
her
sympathetic
pages
—
to
be
made
more
and
more
miserable
by
her
—
were
my
only
comforts
.
I
felt
as
if
I
had
been
living
in
a
palace
of
cards
,
which
had
tumbled
down
,
leaving
only
Miss
Mills
and
me
among
the
ruins
;
I
felt
as
if
some
grim
enchanter
had
drawn
a
magic
circle
round
the
innocent
goddess
of
my
heart
,
which
nothing
indeed
but
those
same
strong
pinions
,
capable
of
carrying
so
many
people
over
so
much
,
would
enable
me
to
enter
!
My
aunt
,
beginning
,
I
imagine
,
to
be
made
seriously
uncomfortable
by
my
prolonged
dejection
,
made
a
pretence
of
being
anxious
that
I
should
go
to
Dover
,
to
see
that
all
was
working
well
at
the
cottage
,
which
was
let
;
and
to
conclude
an
agreement
,
with
the
same
tenant
,
for
a
longer
term
of
occupation
.
Janet
was
drafted
into
the
service
of
Mrs
.
Strong
,
where
I
saw
her
every
day
.
She
had
been
undecided
,
on
leaving
Dover
,
whether
or
no
to
give
the
finishing
touch
to
that
renunciation
of
mankind
in
which
she
had
been
educated
,
by
marrying
a
pilot
;
but
she
decided
against
that
venture
.
Not
so
much
for
the
sake
of
principle
,
I
believe
,
as
because
she
happened
not
to
like
him
.

Although
it
required
an
effort
to
leave
Miss
Mills
,
I
fell
rather
willingly
into
my
aunt
’
s
pretence
,
as
a
means
of
enabling
me
to
pass
a
few
tranquil
hours
with
Agnes
.
I
consulted
the
good
Doctor
relative
to
an
absence
of
three
days
;
and
the
Doctor
wishing
me
to
take
that
relaxation
,
—
he
wished
me
to
take
more
;
but
my
energy
could
not
bear
that
,
—
I
made
up
my
mind
to
go
.
As
to
the
Commons
,
I
had
no
great
occasion
to
be
particular
about
my
duties
in
that
quarter
.
To
say
the
truth
,
we
were
getting
in
no
very
good
odour
among
the
tip
-
top
proctors
,
and
were
rapidly
sliding
down
to
but
a
doubtful
position
.
The
business
had
been
indifferent
under
Mr
.
jorkins
,
before
Mr
.
Spenlow
’
s
time
;
and
although
it
had
been
quickened
by
the
infusion
of
new
blood
,
and
by
the
display
which
Mr
.
Spenlow
made
,
still
it
was
not
established
on
a
sufficiently
strong
basis
to
bear
,
without
being
shaken
,
such
a
blow
as
the
sudden
loss
of
its
active
manager
.
It
fell
off
very
much
.
Mr
.
jorkins
,
notwithstanding
his
reputation
in
the
firm
,
was
an
easy
-
going
,
incapable
sort
of
man
,
whose
reputation
out
of
doors
was
not
calculated
to
back
it
up
.
I
was
turned
over
to
him
now
,
and
when
I
saw
him
take
his
snuff
and
let
the
business
go
,
I
regretted
my
aunt
’
s
thousand
pounds
more
than
ever
.
But
this
was
not
the
worst
of
it
.
There
were
a
number
of
hangers
-
on
and
outsiders
about
the
Commons
,
who
,
without
being
proctors
themselves
,
dabbled
in
common
-
form
business
,
and
got
it
done
by
real
proctors
,
who
lent
their
names
in
consideration
of
a
share
in
the
spoil
;
—
and
there
were
a
good
many
of
these
too
.
As
our
house
now
wanted
business
on
any
terms
,
we
joined
this
noble
band
;
and
threw
out
lures
to
the
hangers
-
on
and
outsiders
,
to
bring
their
business
to
us
.
Marriage
licences
and
small
probates
were
what
we
all
looked
for
,
and
what
paid
us
best
;
and
the
competition
for
these
ran
very
high
indeed
.
Kidnappers
and
inveiglers
were
planted
in
all
the
avenues
of
entrance
to
the
Commons
,
with
instructions
to
do
their
utmost
to
cut
off
all
persons
in
mourning
,
and
all
gentlemen
with
anything
bashful
in
their
appearance
,
and
entice
them
to
the
offices
in
which
their
respective
employers
were
interested
;
which
instructions
were
so
well
observed
,
that
I
myself
,
before
I
was
known
by
sight
,
was
twice
hustled
into
the
premises
of
our
principal
opponent
.

The
conflicting
interests
of
these
touting
gentlemen
being
of
a
nature
to
irritate
their
feelings
,
personal
collisions
took
place
;
and
the
Commons
was
even
scandalized
by
our
principal
inveigler
(
who
had
formerly
been
in
the
wine
trade
,
and
afterwards
in
the
sworn
brokery
line
)
walking
about
for
some
days
with
a
black
eye
.
Any
one
of
these
scouts
used
to
think
nothing
of
politely
assisting
an
old
lady
in
black
out
of
a
vehicle
,
killing
any
proctor
whom
she
inquired
for
,
representing
his
employer
as
the
lawful
successor
and
representative
of
that
proctor
,
and
bearing
the
old
lady
off
(
sometimes
greatly
affected
)
to
his
employer
’
s
office
.
Many
captives
were
brought
to
me
in
this
way
.
As
to
marriage
licences
,
the
competition
rose
to
such
a
pitch
,
that
a
shy
gentleman
in
want
of
one
,
had
nothing
to
do
but
submit
himself
to
the
first
inveigler
,
or
be
fought
for
,
and
become
the
prey
of
the
strongest
.
One
of
our
clerks
,
who
was
an
outsider
,
used
,
in
the
height
of
this
contest
,
to
sit
with
his
hat
on
,
that
he
might
be
ready
to
rush
out
and
swear
before
a
surrogate
any
victim
who
was
brought
in
.
The
system
of
inveigling
continues
,
I
believe
,
to
this
day
.
The
last
time
I
was
in
the
Commons
,
a
civil
able
-
bodied
person
in
a
white
apron
pounced
out
upon
me
from
a
doorway
,
and
whispering
the
word
‘
Marriage
-
licence
’
in
my
ear
,
was
with
great
difficulty
prevented
from
taking
me
up
in
his
arms
and
lifting
me
into
a
proctor
’
s
.
From
this
digression
,
let
me
proceed
to
Dover
.
I
found
everything
in
a
satisfactory
state
at
the
cottage
;
and
was
enabled
to
gratify
my
aunt
exceedingly
by
reporting
that
the
tenant
inherited
her
feud
,
and
waged
incessant
war
against
donkeys
.
Having
settled
the
little
business
I
had
to
transact
there
,
and
slept
there
one
night
,
I
walked
on
to
Canterbury
early
in
the
morning
.
It
was
now
winter
again
;
and
the
fresh
,
cold
windy
day
,
and
the
sweeping
downland
,
brightened
up
my
hopes
a
little
.
Coming
into
Canterbury
,
I
loitered
through
the
old
streets
with
a
sober
pleasure
that
calmed
my
spirits
,
and
eased
my
heart
.
There
were
the
old
signs
,
the
old
names
over
the
shops
,
the
old
people
serving
in
them
.
It
appeared
so
long
,
since
I
had
been
a
schoolboy
there
,
that
I
wondered
the
place
was
so
little
changed
,
until
I
reflected
how
little
I
was
changed
myself
.
Strange
to
say
,
that
quiet
influence
which
was
inseparable
in
my
mind
from
Agnes
,
seemed
to
pervade
even
the
city
where
she
dwelt
.
The
venerable
cathedral
towers
,
and
the
old
jackdaws
and
rooks
whose
airy
voices
made
them
more
retired
than
perfect
silence
would
have
done
;
the
battered
gateways
,
one
stuck
full
with
statues
,
long
thrown
down
,
and
crumbled
away
,
like
the
reverential
pilgrims
who
had
gazed
upon
them
;
the
still
nooks
,
where
the
ivied
growth
of
centuries
crept
over
gabled
ends
and
ruined
walls
;
the
ancient
houses
,
the
pastoral
landscape
of
field
,
orchard
,
and
garden
;
everywhere
—
on
everything
-
I
felt
the
same
serener
air
,
the
same
calm
,
thoughtful
,
softening
spirit
.
