THE MYSTERY OF MR. E. DROOD
AN ADAPTATION.
BY ORPHEUS C. KERR.
CHAPTER IX.
BALKS IN A BRUSH.
FLORA having no relations in the world that she knew of had ever
since her seventh new bonnet known no other home than Macassar Female
College in the Alms-House and regarded Miss CAROWTHERS as her
mother-in-lore. Her memory of her own mother was of a lady-like person
who had swiftly waisted away in the effort to be always taken for her
own daughter and was one day brought down-stairs by her husband in
two pieces from tight lacing. The sad separation (taking place just
before a party of pleasure) had driven FLORA'S father into a frenzy of
grief for his better halves; which was augmented to brain fever by Mr.
SCHENCK who having given a Boreal policy to deceased felt it his duty
to talk gloomily about wives who sometimes died apart after receiving
unmerited cuts from their husbands and to suggest a compromise of ten
per cent upon the amount of the policy as a much more cheerful
settlement than a coroner's inquest. FLORA'S betrothal had grown out of
the soothing of Mr. POTTS'S last year of mental disorder by Mr. DROOD
an old partner in the grocery business who too was a widower from his
wife's use of arsenic and lead for her complexion. The two bereaved
friends after comparing tears and looking mournfully at each other's
tongues had talked themselves to death over the fluctuations in sugar;
willing their respective children to marry in future for the sake of
keeping up the controversy.
From the FLOWERPOT'S first arrival at the Alms-House her new things
engagement to be married and stock of chocolate caramels had won the
deepest affections of her teachers and schoolmates; and on the morning
after the sectional dispute between EDWIN and MONTGOMERY when one of
the young ladies had heard of it as a profound secret no pains were
spared by the whole tender-hearted school to make her believe that
neither of the young men was entirely given up yet by the consulting
physicians. It was whispered indeed that a knife or two might have
passed and two or three guns been exchanged; but she was not to be at
all worried for persons had been known to get well with the tops of
their heads off.
At an early hour however Miss PENDRAGON had paid a visit to her
brother in Gospeler's Gulch; and coming back with the intelligence
that while he had been stabbed to the heart it was chiefly by cruel
insinuations and an umbrella was enabled to assure Miss CAROWTHERS in
confidence that nothing eligible for publication in the New York Sun
had really occurred. Thus when the legal conqueror of Breachy Mr.
BLODGETT entered that principal recitation-room of the Macassar
formally known as the Cackleorium she had no difficulty in explaining
away the panic.
She said that "Unfounded Rumor Ladies is we all know a descriptive
phrase applied by the Associated Press to all important foreign news
procured a week or two in advance of its own similar European advices
by the Press Association[A]. We perceive then Ladies (Miss JENKINS
