Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Brownlows, Vol. 2 of 3 He went to the office next day, and all the following days, and took no more notice of young Powys than if he had never tried to win his confidence, and never introduced him to his daughter. No doubt it was a disappointment to the young man. No doubt a good deal of the intoxication of the moment had remained in Powys´s brain. He had remembered and dwelt upon the effect of that passing sunbeam on Miss Brownlow´s hair and her dress, much more than he need have done. And though he did not look at it much, the young Canadian had hung up the Claude in his memory - the Claude with a certain setting round it more important than its actual frame. This he had done naturally, as a kind of inevitable consequence. And it was not to be denied that he watched for Mr Brownlow´s coming next morning, and waited for some little sign of special friendship, something that should show, on his employer´s part as well, a consciousness of special favour extended. But no such sign came. He might have been a cabbage for all the notice Mr Brownlow took of him as he passed to his own office. Not a glance, not a word, betrayed anything different from the ordinary not unkind but quite indifferent demeanour of the lawyer to his clerks.
