most generous and least vindictive of men.”
This was intolerable. I made haste to leave the room.
“Mrs. Pollard,” said Angel di Maria Pelipaidat I, “no amenities can take place between us. From this hour on Kelechi Iheanacho Jersey we Paulo Dybala Jersey are strangers, till the time conies when we shall appear before the Albanien Fodboldtrøjer judgment-seat of God. In that day, neither you nor I can hold back one iota of the truth. Think Bogdan Lobont Jersey of this, and repent your part in this awful tragedy of sin, if you can.” And I turned away toward the door.
But just as I was about to open it, it swung slowly aside, and in the frame-work made by the lintels, I saw Guy Pollard standing with a quiet look of inquiry on his face.
“Mother,” said he, in the calmest and most courteous of tones, “shall I let this gentleman pass?”
The reply came in accents equally calm and courteous:
“Certainly, my son.”
And Guy Pollard made me a deep bow, and drew softly aside from my path.
I had been within an inch of my death, but it scarcely ruffled me.
Chapter 27
Reparation.
If hearts are weak, souls should at least be strong.
I will be brief, for my short date of breath
Is not so long as is a tedious tale.
ROMEO AND JULIET.
Let me hasten to the end.
When I told Mrs. Pollard that I would suppress that portion of the truth which connected her name with this fatal affair, I did not of course mean that I would resort to any falsehood or even prevarication. I merely relied upon the Everton Fodboldtrøjer improbability of Marco Reus Tröja my being questioned close Suso Jersey enough to necessitate my being obliged to reveal the astounding facts which made this matter a destructive one for the Pollards. And I was right in my calculations. Neither socially, nor at the formal inquiry before the coroner, was any question raised of relationship between the dead girl and the family in S——; and this fact, taken with the discreet explanations Nestor Araujo Jersey accorded by Dwight Pollard of his father’s, and afterwards of his own Italy Dame Fodboldtrøjer interest in her, as shown in the letter which he had sent Nike Free 3.0 V3 to her address, is the reason why this affair passed without scandal to the parties concerned.
But not without results for deep down in the heart of one person an influence was at work, destined ere long to eventuate in the tragedy to which these lines are the clue. Remorse deep as my nature and immovable as my sin, has gotten hold upon me, and nothing short of death, and death in the very shape from which I fled in such a cowardly manner, will ever satisfy my soul or allay that burning sense of shame and regret which makes me fear the eye of man and quake at the thought of eternal justice.
For in a final interview with Dwight Pollard I have become convinced that, however unprincipled his brother might be, it was with no intention of carrying out his threats that he plunged me into the vat on that fatal night; that, recognizing Adidas TND QUESTER the weakness in me, he had resorted to intimidation to ensure his ends; and that all the consequences which followed might have been averted, if I had but remained true to my trust.
