It would make a change, for James and me to spend two or three months every year there, but of course this will be our home." And so it was arranged, and so matters continued until, in the lapse of time, the seniors passed away, and James Walsham and his wife, and it may be said their children, became the sole occupants of the Hall, the estate having been largely increased, by the purchase of adjoining property, by the squire before his death.
James Walsham might have represented his county in Parliament had he chosen, but he was far too happy in his country life, varied by a few months passed every year in town, to care about taking part in the turmoil of politics.
He did much for Sidmouth, and especially for its fishermen, and, to the end of his life, retained a passionate love for the sea. ***END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK WITH WOLFE IN CANADA*** ******* This file should be named 17766.txt or 17766.zip ******* This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/7/7/6/17766 Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions will be renamed.
