Author OF David Harum" and Children
Children, with his own. and all 9TH
ers, he regarded with a tenderness in
termixed with the awe that comes
from an utter failure to comprehend.
He felt keenly the responsibility of
fatEerhood, but also felt his hand
stayed from timorousness because Of
the injustice of having caused their
being. The death of his wife left him
in a condition of helplessness until his
sister assumed the place of mother to
three growing children. OF the young
est, Philip, he once said, 1.-THE dear
child is as pertinacious as fly in his
inquiries, l had no idea tLat a child
Could ask so many questions. and l
find it easier to settle municipal affairs
than to give an answer to ouch queries
as, Papa, must l wear my rubbers?
or. Papa, how many apples may l eat
a day?'"
In speaking again of Philip at the
age of 9 or 10, he says in letter, "On
Sunday morning l get the small boy
dressed and set him on the straight and
narrow path-nay, push him before me
down it's dreaIy way to church serv-
ice. "-Ainslee's for September.
