quite six
years old
could not
be
regarded
as
seriously
dangerous
even for
the
largest of
conceivable
empires
saddled
with the
most
sacred of
responsibilities.And
this good
man,I
believe,did
not think
so either.
I learned
afterwards
why he was
present on
that day.I
don't
remember
any
outward
signs,but
it seems
that,about
a month
before,my
mother
became so
unwell
that there
was a
doubt
whether
she could
be made
fit to
travel in
the
time.In
