Excerpt from Miss. Fingal Miss Fingal had been eight years in the flat and was nearly twenty-nine - she might have been any age, older or younger. She was slim and very calm of manner. She had a quantity of brown hair coiled close to her head, grey eyes, soft and kind, but vague and dark-lashed, which gave them a curious air of safeguarding her thoughts and making her seem a little remote. Her low even voice, pitched in a sweet and usually treble key, added to the effect of remoteness; it seemed to be all that was left of some insistent sound that had struggled through the bygones and, fatigued with long effort, to have little strength left for its owner's use. Eight years in the flat. It seemed as if she might be there eight more, and eight more again, for all that was likely to happen. But she faced the prospect, if she thought about it at all, without alarm: time was a monotonous stream, and she went on with it patiently, expecting nothing. And just as she looked forward to nothing, so, too, there was no background to her life; she had no memories over which she cared to linger. Her mother had died when she was a child; her father, a soldier on half pay, had sent her to a dull school at Worthing till_ she was grown up. Then she lived in lodgings for two years with him, but they had not been intimate; he was a morose man who resented not being better off, and spent most of his time at his club. When he died, she thought that death demanded tears and a period of mourning: she paid its toll. A month later she settled down in the little flat at Battersea.
