On the first day of the holidays Dorothy received a letter from Mr Warburton
My Dear Dorothy [he wrote], — Or should I call you Ellen, as I understand that is your new
name’ You must, I am afraid, have thought it very heartless of me not to have written sooner, but I
assure you that it was not until ten days ago that I even heard anything about our supposed
escapade I have been abroad, first in various parts of France, then in Austria and then m Rome,
and, as you know, I avoid my fellow
countrymen
most strenuously on these trips They are
disgusting enough even at home, but in foreign parts their behaviour makes me so ashamed of
them that I generally try to pass myself off as an American
When I got to Knype Hill your father refused to see me, but I managed to get hold of Victor
Stone, who gave me your address and the name you are using He seemed rather reluctant to do so,
and I gathered that even he, like everyone else in this poisonous town, still believes that you have
misbehaved yourself in some way I think the theory that you and I eloped together has been
dropped, but you must, they feel, have done something scandalous A young woman has left home
suddenly, therefore there must be a man in the case, that is how the provincial mind works, you
see I need not tell you that I have been contradicting the whole story with the utmost vigour You
will be glad to hear that I managed to comer that disgusting hag, Mrs Sempnll, and give her a
piece of my mind, and I assure you that a piece of my mind is distinctly formidable But the woman
is simply sub-human I could get nothing out of her except hypocritical snivellings about ‘poor,
poor Dorothy’
I hear that your father misses you very much, and would gladly have you home again if it were
not for the scandal His meals are never punctual nowadays, it seems He gives it out that you ‘went
away to recuperate from a slight illness and have now got an excellent post at a girls’ school’ You
will be surpised to hear of one thing that has happened to him He has been obliged to pay off all his
debts 1 1 am told that the tradesmen rose in a body and held what was practically a creditors’
meeting in the Rectory Not the kind of thing that could have happened at Plumstead
Episcopi-but these are democratic days, alas' You, evidently, were the only person who could
keep the tradesmen permanently at bay
And now I must tell you some of my own news, etc , etc , etc
At this point Dorothy tore the letter up in disappointment and even m
annoyance He might have shown a little more sympathy* she thought It was
just like Mr Warburton after getting her into serious trouble-for after all, he
was principally to blame for what had happened-to be so flippant and
unconcerned about it But when she had thought it over she acquitted him of
heartlessness.

because they run up against it quite of their own accord, how the mind can be so struck is more than I can see.

Not, be it observed, that
the capitalist oil trusts would combine their re-
sources to inflame public opinion, lay down embar-
goes, choke off Soviet oil, but that the capitalist oil
trusts, that have in part and on occasion tried these
methods and found them wanting, would approach
the Soviets with gifts to
purchase
by persuasion what
they could not achieve by force.
