Excerpt from The Silence of Dean Maitland, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel
When the little skating-party reached the Rectory, Mr. Maitland had not returned from his errand of charity, nor did he appear when luncheon was served. The meal was delayed half an hour, and then took place without him. Mrs. Maitland was depressed at the melancholy opening of the New Year, and Henry had devoted himself to the task of cheering and amusing her.
