A Clergyman’s Daughter 579
have thought you’d have had time to read 1 ’ she said bitterly She herself had
never read a book right through in her life, and was proud of it
Moreover, even when Dorothy was not actually under her eye, Mrs Creevy
had ways of making her presence felt She was for ever prowling in the
neighbourhood of the schoolroom, so that Dorothy never felt quite safe from
her intrusion, and when she thought there was too much noise she would
suddenly rap on the wall with her broom-handle in a way that made the
children jump and put them off their work At all hours of the day she was
restlessly, noisily active When she was not cooking meals she was banging
about with broom and dustpan, or harrying the charwoman, or pouncing down
upon the schoolroom to ‘have a look round’ in hopes of catching Dorothy or
the children up to mischief, or ‘doing a bit of gardemng’-that is, mutilating
with a pair of shears the unhappy little shrubs that grew amid wastes of gravel
m the back garden On only two evenings a week was Dorothy free of her, and
that was when Mrs Creevy sallied forth on forays which she called ‘going after
the girls’, that is to say, canvassing likely parents These evenings Dorothy
usually spent in the public library, for when Mrs Creevy was not at home she
expected Dorothy to keep out of the house, to save fire and gaslight On other
evenings Mrs Creevy was busy writing dunning letters to the parents, or
letters to the editor of the local paper, haggling over the price of a dozen
advertisements, or poking about the girls’ desks to see that their exercise books
had been properly corrected, or ‘doing a bit of sewing’ Whenever occupation
failed her for even five minutes she got out her workbox and ‘did a bit of
sewing’-generally restitchmg some bloomers of harsh white linen of which she
had pairs beyond number They were the most chilly looking garments that
one could
possibly
imagine, they seemed to carry upon them, as no nun’s coif
or anchorite’s hair shirt could ever have done, the impress of a frozen and
awful chastity The sight of them set you wondermg about the late Mr Creevy,
even to the point of wondering whether he had ever existed
Looking with an outsider’s eye at Mrs Creevy’ s manner of life, you would
have said that she had no pleasures whatever She never did any of the things
that ordinary people do to amuse themselves-never went to the pictures, never
looked at a book, never ate sweets, never cooked a special dish for dinner or
dressed herself in any kmd of finery Social life meant absolutely nothing to
her.
