Uncle Max

CHAPTER XII
5/19

Mr.Hamilton's behaviour was irreproachable.

I could hear his voice following all the responses, and he sang the hymns very heartily.
I think he knew I was behind him, for he handed me a hymn-book, with a slight smile, when I was offering to share mine with a young woman.

Miss Darrell gave me a curiously penetrating look when she came out that did not quite please me, but the girl who followed her did not seem to notice my presence.

I sat still in my place for a minute, as I did not wish to encounter them in the porch.

I had lingered so long that the congregation had quite dispersed when I got out, but, to my surprise, I could see the three walking very slowly down the road.
