As
the
piano
had
twice
begun
the
prelude
to
the
first
figure
Mary
Jane
led
her
recruits
quickly
from
the
room
.
They
had
hardly
gone
when
Aunt
Julia
wandered
slowly
into
the
room
,
looking
behind
her
at
something
.
"
What
is
the
matter
,
Julia
?
"
asked
Aunt
Kate
anxiously
.
"
Who
is
it
?

Julia
,
who
was
carrying
in
a
column
of
table-napkins
,
turned
to
her
sister
and
said
,
simply
,
as
if
the
question
had
surprised
her
:
"
It
's
only
Freddy
,
Kate
,
and
Gabriel
with
him
.
"
In
fact
right
behind
her
Gabriel
could
be
seen
piloting
Freddy
Malins
across
the
landing
.
The
latter
,
a
young
man
of
about
forty
,
was
of
Gabriel
's
size
and
build
,
with
very
round
shoulders
.
His
face
was
fleshy
and
pallid
,
touched
with
colour
only
at
the
thick
hanging
lobes
of
his
ears
and
at
the
wide
wings
of
his
nose
.
He
had
coarse
features
,
a
blunt
nose
,
a
convex
and
receding
brow
,
tumid
and
protruded
lips
.
His
heavy-lidded
eyes
and
the
disorder
of
his
scanty
hair
made
him
look
sleepy
.
He
was
laughing
heartily
in
a
high
key
at
a
story
which
he
had
been
telling
Gabriel
on
the
stairs
and
at
the
same
time
rubbing
the
knuckles
of
his
left
fist
backwards
and
forwards
into
his
left
eye
.
"
Good-evening
,
Freddy
,
"
said
Aunt
Julia
.

Freddy
Malins
bade
the
Misses
Morkan
good-evening
in
what
seemed
an
offhand
fashion
by
reason
of
the
habitual
catch
in
his
voice
and
then
,
seeing
that
Mr.
Browne
was
grinning
at
him
from
the
sideboard
,
crossed
the
room
on
rather
shaky
legs
and
began
to
repeat
in
an
undertone
the
story
he
had
just
told
to
Gabriel
.
"
He
's
not
so
bad
,
is
he
?
"
said
Aunt
Kate
to
Gabriel
.
Gabriel
's
brows
were
dark
but
he
raised
them
quickly
and
answered
:
