"His father, when he was home from the great world, was quiet and relaxed and amused--though capable of fearful sternness....his father's rare 'Well done!' had been a thing to treasure for days....It came to him him now in the night that his father, lawyer, soldier, and lover of his land, had been a very honourable gentleman."
Sheldon Vanauken, A Severe Mercy, Prologue
