Excerpt from The Fear of Things I had first Of all to believe in the trustworthiness Of the man whom I had sent to find out the truth for me. I had to believe in him before the seeing Of the letter in his hand could bear the happy interpretation which I put upon it. He might have been a bad man. He might have laid a scheme to hurt me.
