"Something at Churston?" "No-not at Chruston......Before that......No matter,presently it willcome to me......" He looked at me (perhaps I had not been attending very closely),laughedand began once more to hum.

There was an air of deep and settled melancholy over Combeside when wesaw it again for the second time.This may,perhaps,have been partly due tothe weather-it was a moist September day with a hint of autumn in the air,and partly,no doubt,it was the semi-shut-up state of the house.Thedownstairs rooms were closed and shuttered,and the small room into which wewere shown smelt damp and airless. A capable-looking hospital nurse came to us there pulling down herstarched cuffs.
