Page 311 PART III - CHAPTER VTHE DOMINANT MOTIF OF SUFFERING THE old woman lay still another year, then she suddenly sank out of life. George ceased to write to me, but I teamed his news elsewhere. He became more and more intimate with the Mayhews. After old lYlayhew's bankruptcy, the two sons had remained on in the large dark house that stood off the Nottingham Road in Eberwich. This house had been bequeathed to the oldest daughter by the mother. Maud Mayhew, who was married and separated from her husband, kept house for her brothers. She was a tall, large woman with high cheek-bones and oily black hair looped over her ears. Tom Mayhew was also a handsome man, very dark and ruddy, with insolent bright eyes. |
