Little Mary Carbonel was not the worse for all the agitations, from
which, indeed, she had been so carefully shielded, but her mother
was sadly broken down by all she had undergone, and likewise by
mortification at the whole conduct of the Uphill people. After all
the years that she and her husband and sisters had striven for
them, it was very hard to find that so very few would exert
themselves for their protection, and that so many would even turn
against them. It was hard to make allowance for the bewilderment of
slow minds, for sheer cowardice, and for the instinct of going
along with one's own class of people. She and Sophy prayed that
they might forgive the people, but it was impossible just then not
to feel that there was a good deal to forgive, and Captain Caiger
was always telling them that all their trouble came in trying to
help the good-for-nothing people.
