Adam Johnstone's Son: Goodbye he said, holding out his hand, and trying hard to smile a little, 1895. '"Of course we have a right to live," he answered, in a constrained tone. "But that does not mean that I may stay here and make your life a burden. So I'm going away. It was quite different before I knew all this. Please don't stay out here - you 'll get a sunstroke. I only wanted to say good-bye." Man-like, having his courage at the sticking-point, he wished to get it all over quickly and be off. The colour sank from Clare's face again, and she stood quite still for a moment, looking at him. "Good-bye," he said, holding out his hand, and trying hard to smile a little. Clare looked at him still, but her hand did not meet his, though he waited, holding it out to her. Her face hardened as though she were making an effort, then softened again; and still he waited. "Won't you say good-bye to me?" he asked unsteadily. She hesitated a moment longer. "No!" she answered suddenly, "I - I can't!".' Illustration by Amédée Forestier, to a serialised novel by Francis Marion Crawford. From "Illustrated London News", 1895.
