Having decided to sack Dorothy, it was obviously most important to prevent
her from finding it out For, of course, if she knew what was going to happen,
A Clergyman’s Daughter 407
she would begin stealing pupils on her own account, or at any rate wouldn’t do
a stroke of work for the rest of the term (Mrs Creevy prided herself on
knowing human nature ) Hence the marmalade, the creaky smiles, and the
other ruses to allay Dorothy’s suspicions Anyone who knew the ropes would
have begun thinking of another job the very moment when the dish of
marmalade was pushed across the table
Just half an hour after her sentence of dismissal, Dorothy, carrying her
handbag, opened the front gate It was the fourth of April, a bright blowy day,
too cold to stand about m, with a sky as blue as a hedgesparrow’s egg, and one
of those spiteful spring winds that come tearing along the pavement m sudden
gusts and blow dry, stinging dust into your face Dorothy shut the gate behind
her and began to walk very slowly m the direction of the mam-lme station
She had told Mrs Creevy that she would give her an address to which her
box could be sent, and Mrs Creevy had instantly exacted five shillings for the
carriage So Dorothy had five pounds fifteen in hand, which might keep her for
three weeks with careful economy What she was going to do, except that she
must start by going to London and finding a suitable lodging, she had very
little idea But her first panic had worn off, and she realized that the situation
was not altogether
desperate
No doubt her father would help her, at any rate
for a while, and at the worst, though she hated even the thought of doing it, she
could ask her cousin’s help a second time Besides, her chances of finding a job
were probably fairly good She was young, she spoke with a genteel accent, and
she was willing to drudge for a servant’s wages-qualities that are much sought
after by the proprietors of fourth-rate schools Very likely all would be well
But that there was an evil time ahead of her, a time of job-huntmg, of
uncertainty and possibly of hunger-that, at any rate, was certain
CHAPTER 5
However, it turned out quite otherwise For Dorothy had not gone five yards
from the gate when a telegraph boy came riding up the street in the opposite
direction, whistling and looking at the names of the houses, He saw the name
Rmgwood House, wheeled his bicycle round, propped it against the kerb, and
accosted Dorothy
‘Miss Mill-burrow live ’ere^’ he said, jerking his head m the direction of
Rmgwood House
‘Yes lam Miss Millborough ’
‘Gotter wait case there’s a answer,’ said the boy, taking an orange-coloured
envelope from his belt
Dorothy put down her bag She had once more begun trembling violently.

As a king would
be lamented,
Eleonora
was lamented:
As, when some great and gracious monarch dies,
Soft whispers, first, and mournful murmurs rise
Among the sad attendants; then the sound
Soon gathers voice, and spreads the news around,
Through town and country, till the dreadful blast
Is blown to distant colonies at last;
Who then, perhaps, were off'ring vows in vain,
For his long life, and for his happy reign:
So slowly, by degrees, unwilling fame
Did matchless Eleonora's fate proclaim,
Till publick as the loss the news became.

And bid go in with
honoured
companions
There where there is no grief, nor shall be sadness.
