n EFORE Bathsheba Everdene came to Weatherbury' as mis-
 tress of the manor-house, time seemed to have forgotten the village. The smock-clad shepherds In the thatch-roofed cottages might have been, as far as appearances went, their own ancestors of four centuries before. Little happenings seemed tre- mendcus. The pulling down of a hovel was a stirring event; the trans formation of we'll into a pump shook Weatherbury like a revolution.
 The stir of the great world without, its romance and passion and tragedy these came to Weatherbury with Bath. sheba. There was a new arrival to be discussed, a great-boned, ruddy-faced shepherd, Gabriel Oak, who beat out a fire that menaced the wheatricks and who remained to work for Bath sheba. Fanny Robin, a servant, dis appeared, lured by a soldiers red coat These were things to agitate the heads of the rustics who gathered at nightfall in the old malthouse to urlnB ana 10 moral1Ze.
 Their heads would have wagged even more had they known that Gabri- el Oak, only a few weeks before, had been his own master, and had vainly urged Bathsheba, then a penniless maiden, to marry him. Things that had seemed commonplace enough had abruptly reversed their places in the world. A man had died in Weather bury; a dog had driven to death a flock of sheep. These were but the inevitable tragedies of life and yet the one had suddenly made Bathsheba an heiress; the other had driven Gabriel out upon the highways to seek work. Chance or fate had kindled a fire, Ga briel had saved the wheat, and the two lives that had been flung so far apart were brought near again.
 The pain of seeing another win her whom he loved would be intense but Gabriel preferred even this life where he could not see her. He knew that this must happen. Bathsheba was young, beautiful, wealthy, but rarer than these was her high spirit. "She was the stuff of which great mems mothers are made. She was indispens- able to high generation, hated at tea parties, feared in shops and loved at crises" This spirit, however, was to flame more brightly later, after her impetuosity had plunged her into the crises that were to prove her worth.
 In all Weatherbury, one man alone was needless to her charm. This was William Boldwood, "the nearest ap- proach to aristocracy that this remoter quarter of the parish could boast of" She resented being ignored and, in a moment of thoughtlessness, sent him a valentine that famed into flame pas sions that Boldwood had hidden from the world.
 At the shearing supper held in the great barn, Gabriel could see that Boldwood's suit was prospering. He was madly in love, she no longer dis couraged him. Neither Bathsheba nor Boldwood were thinking then of a song she had sung earlier that evening, when the shcarers reclined against each other as at suppers in the early ages of the world" Ye. aftcrward how often were they to recall With a shud-
