Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Search The library fire had fallen very low when Stonehouse returned to it from another restless visit to the door of that room in which his wife lay shut away from him. The nurse, hearing his tread, had come softly out to the landing and whispered, "It must be soon, the Doctor thinks. Do try to get some sleep, Mr. Stonehouse; you can´t do any good, you know, and it´ll only distress her to know you´re worrying." Stonehouse answered: "Then tell her I´m not worrying. Tell her I know everything´s all right, but I´m here if she wants me." And smiling, for he could smile in the last extremity, he wandered back to the library fire and put a fresh log on its pale ashes. Abstractedly realising the importance to his comfort of those ashes being fully revived, for the September night was cold, he fetched a newspaper and held it across the grate till a faint crackle and a faint glow behind it told him his efforts were in time. With a patience not innate but acquired by slow degrees in dealing with less material issues, he persevered till warmth spread about him from the now bright log; and then, sitting back on his heels, filled and lighted a pipe.
