It was only when that extraordinary momentary tragedy was over, and the
hush of silence, overawed and thunder-stricken, had taken the place of
the tumult, that it became apparent to most of the spectators that all
was not over, that there was yet something to be done. “Let some one go
for the nearest doctor,” the inspector said quickly.
“No need for any doctors here, sir,” said the men in concert.
“Go at once; you, Young, that know where to find one: and some of you go
with him, to lose no time. There’s a woman shot beside,” said the
officer in his curt tones of command.
But the woman shot was not Mrs Ainslie, at whom the pistol was levelled.
These three visitors, so strangely mixed up in the _mêlée_ and in the
confusion of events, had been hustled about among the policemen, to the
consternation of the father and daughter, who could not explain to
themselves at first what was going on, nor what their companion had to
do with it. As the course of the affair advanced, Mr Logan began to
perceive, as has been said, that it was a special providence which had
brought him here; but Susie, troubled and full of anguish, her whole
heart absorbed in Robbie and his mother, and the mysterious trouble
which she did not understand, which was hanging over them, stood alone,
pressed back against the wall, following every movement of her friends,
suffering with them. A sharp cry had come out of her very heart when the
handcuffs--those dreadful signs of shame--were put upon his hands. She
saw nothing, thought of nothing, but these two figures--what was any
other to her?--and all that she understood or divined was that some
dreadful trouble had happened to Robbie, and that she could not help
him. She took no notice of her future step-mother’s strange proceedings,
nor of the extraordinary fact that she had forced herself into the midst
of it--she, a stranger--and was adding her foolish shrill opinion to the
discussion. If Susie thought of Mrs Ainslie at all, it was with a
passing reflection that she loved to be in the midst of everything,
which was far too trifling a thought to occupy Susie in the deep
distress of sympathy in which she was. Her father moved about helplessly
among the men. He thought he had been brought there by a special
providence, but he did not know what to do. Mrs Ogilvy had turned upon
him almost fiercely, when he had hesitated in giving his testimony for
Robbie--which was not from any lack of kindness, but solely because he
wanted to say a great deal on the subject. Mrs Ogilvy by this time had
come a little to herself, she had given up the foolish struggle with the
handcuffs; and when Janet’s over-frankness had drawn attention again to
Lew, the mistress withdrew for a moment her own anxious looks from her
son, and turned to the other, of whom she had said nothing, protecting
him instinctively, even in the face of Robbie’s danger. But when she
looked at Lew’s face, she trembled. The horror of last night came over
her once more. Was that murder that was in it, the fire of hell? She had
learned now what it meant when he put his hand to his pocket, and hers,
perhaps, was the only eye that saw that gesture. He was looking at some
one: was it at her, was it at some one behind her? Mrs Ogilvy
instinctively made a step back, whether to escape in her own person, or
to protect that other, she knew not, her eyes fixed on him with a
fascination of terror. She stretched out her arms, with her shawl
covering them like wings, facing him always, stretching forth what was
like a white shield between him in his fury and all the unarmed
defenceless people. She seemed to feel nothing but the sharp sound of
the report, which rang through and through her. She did not know why she
fell. There came a shriek from the woman behind her, at whom that
bullet was aimed; but the real victim fell softly without a cry, with a
murmur of bewilderment, and the sharp sound still ringing, ringing in
her ears. The man seemed to spring over her where she lay; but she knew
no more of what had happened, except that soft arms came suddenly round
her, and her head was raised on some one’s breast, and Susie’s voice
began to sound over her, calling her name, asking where was she hurt.
She did not know she was hurt. It all seemed to become natural again
with the sound of Susie’s voice. She did not lose consciousness, though
she fell, and though it was evident now that the white shawl was all
dabbled with red. It was hard to tell what it all meant, but yet there
seemed some apology wanted. “He did not mean it,” she said; “he did not
mean it. There is--good in him.” She laid her head back on Susie’s bosom
with a soft look of content. “It is maybe--not so bad as you think,” she
said.
The shot was in the shoulder, and the wound bled a great deal. No
ambulance classes nor amateur doctoring had reached so far as Eskholm;
but Susie by the light of nature did all that was possible to stop the
bleeding until the doctor came. She sent Janet off for cushions and
pillows, to make so far as she could an impromptu bed, that the sufferer
might rest more easily. Most of the police party had been ordered
outside, though two of them still stood, a living screen, between the
group round the wounded woman and that figure lying in the doorway,
which was not to be disturbed till the doctor came, some one having
found or fancied a faint flutter in the heart. Mrs Ainslie, to do her
justice, had been totally overwhelmed for the moment. She had flung
herself down on her knees by Mrs Ogilvy’s side, weeping violently, her
face hidden in her hands. She was of no help in the dreadful strait; but
at least she was in a condition of excitement and shattered nerves from
which no help could be expected. Mr Logan had not taken any notice of
her, though he was not yet aroused to any questions as to her behaviour
and position here. He was moving about with soft suppressed steps from
one side to another, in an agony of desire to do his duty, and
consciousness of having been brought by a special providence. But the
minister was appalled by the dead face in the moonlight, the great
figure fallen like a tower. When it was said there was still life in
him, he knelt down heroically by Lew’s side, and tried to whisper into
his ear an entreaty that still at the eleventh hour he should prepare to
meet his God. And then he came round and looked over his daughter’s head
at Mrs Ogilvy. Ought he to recall to her mind the things that concerned
her peace as long as she was able to hear? But the words died on the
minister’s lips. He was a good man, though he was not quick to
understand, or able to divine. His lips moved with the conventional
phrases which belonged to his profession, which it was his duty to say;
but he could not utter any of them. He felt with a curious stupefied
sense of reality that most likely after all God was here, and knew more
perfectly all about it than he.
Meanwhile, the chief person in this scene lay quite still, not suffering
as appeared, very quiet and tranquil in her mind, Susie’s arm supporting
her, and her head on Susie’s breast. The bleeding had almost stopped,
partly because of the complete peace, partly from Susie’s expedients.
Mrs Ogilvy, no doubt, thought she was dying; but it did not disturb her.
The loss of blood had reduced her to that state of weakness in which
there is no struggle. Impressions passed lightly over her brain in its
confusion. Sometimes she asked a question, and then forgot what it was,
and the answer to it together. She was aware of a coming and going in
the place, a sense of movement, the strange voices and steps of the men
about; but they were all part of the turmoil, and she paid no attention
to them. Only she roused a little when Robbie stood near: he looked so
large, when one looked up at him lying stretched out on the floor. He
was talking to some one gravely, standing up, a free man, talking and
moving like the master of the house. She smiled and held out a feeble
hand to him, and he came immediately and knelt down by her side. “He did
not mean it,” she said. And then, “It is maybe not so bad as you
think.” These were the little phrases which she had got by heart.
He patted her on the sound shoulder with a large trembling hand, and
bade her be quiet, very quiet, till the doctor came.
“You have not left me, Robbie?”
“No, mother.” His voice trembled very much, and he stooped and kissed
her. “Never, never any more!”
She smiled at him, lying there contented, with her head on Susie’s
breast--joyful, but not surprised by this news, for nothing could
surprise her now--and then she motioned to him to come closer, and
whispered, “Has he got away?”
The appearance of the doctor, notwithstanding his pause and exclamation
of horror at the door, was an unspeakable relief. That cry conveyed no
information to the patient within, who did not seem even to require an
answer to her question. There was no question any longer of any
fluttering of Lew’s heart. The slight shake of the doctor’s head, the
look on his face, his rapid, low-spoken directions for the removal of
the dead man, renewed the dreadful commotion of the night for a moment.
And then he had Mrs Ogilvy removed on the mattress which his skilled
hands helped to place her on, into her own parlour, where he examined
her wound. She was still quite conscious, and told him over again her
old phrases. “He did not mean it,”--and “Maybe it will not be so ill as
you think,”--with a smile which wavered between consciousness and
unconsciousness. Her troubled brain had got those words as it were by
heart. She said them many times over during the course of the long and
feverish night, during which she saw many visions, glimpses of her son
bending over her, smoothing her pillow, touching her with ignorant
tender hands, glimpses of Susie sitting beside her, coming and going.
They were all dreams, she knew--but sometimes dreams are sweet. She was
ill somehow--but oh, how immeasurably content!
This catastrophe made Robert Ogilvy a man--at least it gave him the
courage and sense which since his arrival at home he seemed to have
lost. He gave the police inspector an account of the man who was dead,
who could no longer be extradited or tried, in Scotland or elsewhere. He
did not conceal that he himself had been more or else connected with the
troop which Lew had led. The inspector nodded. “We know all about that,”
he said; “we know you didn’t count,” which pricked Robbie all the more,
half with the sense of injured pride, to prove that now at least he did
count. His story filled up all that the authorities had wanted to know.
What Lew’s antecedents were, what his history had been, mattered
nothing in this country. They mattered very little even in that from
which he came; and where already his adventures had dropped into the
legends of the road which we still hear from America with wonder, as if
the days of Turpin were not over. No one doubted Robert Ogilvy’s word.
He felt for the first time, on this night, when for a brief and terrible
moment he had worn handcuffs, and borne the brand of shame--and when he
had felt that he was about to be left to stand in another man’s name for
his life--that he was now a known person, the master, at least in a
secondary sense, of a house which “counted,” though it was not a great
house: and that he had, what he had never been conscious before of
having, a local habitation and a name. Robbie was very much overpowered
by this discovery, as well as by the other incidents of the night. He
was not perhaps deeply moved by grief for his friend. The man had not
been his friend; he had been his master, capable of fascinating and
holding him, with an influence which he could not resist. But whenever
he was removed from that influence, his mind and spirit had rebelled
against it. Now it seemed impossible, too wonderful to believe, that he
was free, that Lew’s voice would never call him back, nor Lew’s will
rule him again. But neither was he glad. Lew had led him very far in
these few days--almost to the robbing, almost to the killing, of his
mother--his mother, who had fought for them both like a lion, who had
done everything and dared everything for their sakes. But the slave, the
bondsman, though he felt the thrill of his freedom in his veins, did not
rejoice in the death of his taskmaster. It was too recent, too terrible,
too tragical for that. The sight of that familiar face lying in the
moonlight was always before him--he could not get it out of his eyes. He
did not attempt to go to bed, but walked up and down, sometimes going
into the drawing-room where his mother lay, with a wonderful tenderness
towards her, altogether new to his consciousness, and understanding of
the part she had played. He had never thought of this before. It had
seemed to him merely the course of nature, what was to be expected, the
sort of thing women did, and were glad and proud to be permitted to do.
To have a son to do everything for was her delight. Why should not the
son take it as such?--she was pleasing herself. That was what he had
always thought,--he awakened to a different sense, another appreciation,
not perhaps very vivid, but yet genuine. She had almost been killed for
her love--surely there was something in it after all, more than the
course of nature. He was very sorry for her, to see her lying there with
little spots of blood upon her white night-dress, and the shawl all
covered with blood laid aside in the corner. Poor mother! She was old
and she was weak, and most likely she would die of it. And it was Lew’s
doing, and all for his own sake.
The house had once more become still. The crowd of people who had so
suddenly taken possession of it had surged away. No one knew how it was
that Mr Logan and his daughter and the lady who was going to be his wife
had appeared in that strange scene, and no one noted how at least the
last-named person disappeared. One moment she was kneeling on the floor,
in wild fits of convulsive weeping, her hat pushed back from her head,
her light hair hanging loose, wholly lost in trouble and distress: the
next she was gone. She had indeed stolen away in the commotion caused by
the arrival of the doctor, when Mrs Ogilvy was taken away, and that
tragic obstruction removed from the doorway. It is to be supposed that
she had come to herself by that time. She managed to steal out unseen,
though with a shudder crossing the threshold where Lew had lain. It was
she doubly, both in her betrayal of him, and in her exasperation of him,
who was the cause of all; but probably she did not realise that. She
found her way somehow through the moonlight and the black shadows, along
the road all slippery with the recent rain, to her own house, and there
spent the night as best she might, packing up many things which she
prized, clothes and trinkets, and the _bibelots_, which in their fashion
and hers, she loved like her betters. And early in the morning, by the
first train, she went away--to Edinburgh, in the first place, and
Eskholm saw her no more.
When the doctor’s ministrations were over, for which Mr Logan waited to
hear the result, the minister went into all the rooms looking for her.
He had thought she was helping Susie at first; then, that she had
retired somewhere in the excess of her feelings, which were more
exquisite and delicate than those of common folk. He had in the
excitement of the time never thought of as yet, or even begun to wonder
at, the position she had assumed here, and the part she had taken. He
knew that if his Elizabeth had a fault, it was that she liked to be
always in the front, taking a foremost place in everything. He waited as
long as he could, looking about everywhere; and then, when he was quite
sure she was not to be found, and saw the doctor starting on his walk
home, took his hat and went also. “You think it will not be fatal,
doctor?”
“It may not be--I cannot answer for anything. She’s very quiet, which is
much in her favour. But how, in the name of all that is wonderful, did I
find a dead man, whom I never saw in life, lying across the doorsteps of
the Hewan, and a quiet old lady like Mrs Ogilvy struck almost to death
with a pistol-shot?”
“It is a wonder indeed,” said the minister. “I, if ye will believe me,
was led there, I cannot tell ye how, with the idea of a common call--and
found the police all about the house. It is just the most extraordinary
special providence,” said Mr Logan with solemnity, “that I ever
encountered in the course of my life.” He began by this time to feel
that he had been of great use. But he was a little troubled, poor man,
by the thought of his Elizabeth running home by herself, as she must
have done in the night. He passed her house on his way to the manse, and
was relieved to find that there was a light in her bedroom window; but
though he knocked and knocked again, and even went so far as to throw up
gravel at the window, he could obtain no response. He went home full of
thought. There began to rise into his mind recollections of things which
he was not conscious of having noticed at the time--of the energy with
which she had rushed to the front (but that was her way, he reflected,
with a faint smile) and insisted with the inspector: and then some one
had called her Liz--Liz!--who was it that had called her Liz?
Mr Logan’s thoughts grew, through a night that was not very comfortable
to him more than to the other persons involved. The absence of Susie
made things worse. He would not have spoken to Susie on such a delicate
subject, especially as she was already hostile; but still, if Susie had
been there--in her absence there was an usual tumult in the house, and
he had no one to save him from it. And his mind was sorely troubled.
She had taken a part last night that would not have been becoming in a
minister’s wife. He would speak to her about it: and was it--could it
be--surely it was that robber villain, the suicide, the murderer, who
had called her Liz? It added to all his troubles, that when he had
finally made up his mind to go to her--she not coming to him, as was her
habit in the morning--he found her gone. Away to Edinburgh with the
first train, leaving her boxes packed, and a message that they would be
sent for, her bewildered maid said. Mr Logan returned home, a sorely
disturbed man. But he never saw more the woman who had so nearly been
his wife. There was truth in the story she told her daughter and
son-in-law in Edinburgh, that the scene she had witnessed had completely
shattered her nerves, and that she did not think she could ever face the
associations of that dreadful place again. She did not cheat anybody or
rob anybody, but left her little affairs at Eskholm in Tom Blair’s
hands, who paid everything scrupulously. I don’t know that he ever was
repaid; but he saw very little of his mother-in-law after this
extraordinary overturn of her fate.
Mrs Ogilvy’s wound took a long time to heal, but it did heal in the end.
She was very weak, but had for a long time that wonderful exemption from
care which is usually the privilege of the dying, though she did not
die. Perhaps there was no time of her life when she was happier than
during these weeks of illness. Susie was by her bedside night and day.
Robbie came in continually, a large shadow standing over her, staying
but a moment at first, then longer, sitting by her, talking to her,
answering her questions. I do not know that there was soon or
fundamentally a great moral improvement in Robbie; but he had been
startled into anxiety and kindness, and a little went a long way with
those two women, who loved him. For there was little doubt in any mind,
except perhaps in his own, that Susie loved him too, with something of
the same tolerant, all-explaining, all-pardoning love which was in his
mother’s heart. She had done so all her life, waiting for him all those
years, through which he never thought of her: that did not matter to
Susie,--nobody had ever touched her faithful simple heart but he. She
would not perhaps have been an unhappy woman had he never come back: she
would have gone on looking for him with a vague and visionary hope,
which would have lent a grace to her gentle being, maiden-mother as she
had been born. And even this wild episode, which she never quite
understood, which she never desired to understand, made no difference to
Susie. She forgave it all to the man who was dead, and shed tears over
the horror of his fate; but she put easily all the blame upon him.
Robbie had been faithful to the death for him, would have gone away
instead of him to save him. It covered Lew with a shining mantle of
charity that he called forth so much that was noble in his friend.
The minister, who was shamed to the heart, and wounded in his _amour
propre_ beyond expression by the desertion of Mrs Ainslie, and by the
conviction, slowly forced upon him, that she had deceived him, and was
no exquisite English lady of high pretensions but an adventuress--felt
that the only amends he could make to himself and the world was to carry
out his intention of marrying, and that as quickly as possible.
Providence, as he piously said, directed his eyes to one of those kind
old maids who fill up the crevices of the world, and who are often so
humbly ready to take that position of nurse-housekeeper-wife, in which
perhaps they can be of more use to their generation than in their
solitude, and which satisfies, I suppose, the wish to belong to
somebody, and be the first in some life, as well as the mother-yearning
in their hearts. Such a blessed solution of the difficulty enchanted the
parish, and satisfied the boys and the little girls, who had now
unlimited petting to look forward to--and set Susie free. She married
Robert Ogilvy soon after his mother’s recovery. Fortunately Mrs Ogilvy
was never conscious of the details of the tragedy, and did not know ever
what had lain there in the moonlight across her threshold. I doubt if
she could have come and gone cheerfully as she did over that door-stone
had she ever known. And the young ones full of their own life
forgot--and the family of three continued in the Hewan in love and
content. Robbie never became a model man. He never did anything,
notwithstanding the fulness of his life and strength. He had no impulse
to work--rather the reverse: his impulses were all in the way of
idleness; he lounged about and occupied himself with trifles, and
gardened a little, and carpentered a little, and was never weary. It
fretted the two women often, sometimes the length of despair, especially
Susie, who would burst out into regrets of all his talents lost, and the
great things he might have done. But Mrs Ogilvy did not echo those
regrets: she was well enough aware what Robbie’s talents were, and the
great things which he would never have done. She represented to her
daughter-in-law that if he had been weary of the quiet, if he had grown
moody, tired of his idleness, tired of his life, as some men do, there
would then have been occasion to complain. “But he is just very happy,
God bless him!” his mother said. “And you and me, Susie, we are two
happy women; and the Lord be thanked for all He has done for us, and no
suffered me to go down famished and fasting to the grave.”
