He had n't seen her for twenty years , if you can believe it . Of course he never went to church , and Ellen never went anywhere else round here . Oh , we all know what Norman means , but what Ellen means is a different matter . I sha n't take it upon me to predict whether it will be a match or not . '' `` He jilted her once -- but it seems that does not count with some people , Mrs. Dr. dear , '' Susan remarked rather acidly . `` He jilted her in a fit of temper and repented it all his life , '' said Miss Cornelia . `` That is different from a cold-blooded jilting . For my part , I never detested Norman as some folks do . He could never over-crow ME . I DO wonder what started him coming to church . I have never been able to believe Mrs. Wilsons 's story that Faith Meredith went there and bullied him into it . I 've always intended to ask Faith herself , but I 've never happened to think of it just when I saw her . What influence could SHE have over Norman Douglas ? He was in the store when I left , bellowing with laughter over that scandalous letter . You could have heard him at Four Winds Point . ` The greatest girl in the world , ' he was shouting . ` She 's that full of spunk she 's bursting with it . And all the old grannies want to tame her , darn them . But they 'll never be able to do it -- never ! They might as well try to drown a fish .
