Wheeler.Little, Brown, and Company.1904.Copyright, 1896. THE COTTAGE BESIDE “THE CAUSEWAY”In a little cleft, not deep enough to be a gorge, between two grassyhills, traversed by a clear stream, too small to be called a river, toowide to be a rivulet, stood, and, I believe, still stands, a littlecottage, whose one bay-window elevates it above the condition of alaboring-man's, and shows in its spacious large-paned proportionspretensions to taste as well as station. From the window a coast-line canbe seen to which nothing in the kingdom can find the equal. It takes inthe bold curve of shore from the “White Rocks” to the Giant's Causeway,—asweep of coast broken by jutting headland and promontory, with sandy baysnestling between gigantic walls of pillared rock, and showing beneath thegreen water the tessellated pavement of those broken shafts which oursuperstition calls Titanic. The desolate rock and ruin of Dunluce, thefairy bridge of Carrig-a-Rede, are visible; and on a commonly clear dayStaffa can be seen, its outline only carrying out the strange formation ofthe columnar rocks close at band.This cottage, humble enough in itself, is not relieved in its aspect bythe culture around it A small vegetable garden, rudely fenced with adry-stone wall, is the only piece of vegetation; for the cutting winds ofthe North Sea are unfriendly to trees, and the light sandy soil of thehills only favors the fern and the foxglove.

Of these, indeed, the growthis luxuriant, and the path which leads down from the high-road to thecottage is cut through what might be called a grove of these leafygreeneries. This same path was not much traversed, and more than oncewithin the year was the billhook required to keep it open, so littleintercourse was maintained between the cottage and the world, whosefrontier lay about a mile off.

A widow and her son, with one servant, werethe occupants. It had been a fishing-lodge of her husband's in moreprosperous days. His memory and the cheapness of life in the neighborhoodhad decided her in choosing it, lonely and secluded as it was; and hereshe had passed fourteen years, her whole care being the education of herboy, a task to which she addressed herself with all the zeal and devotionof her nature.

There was, it is true, a village school at Ballintray,about three miles off, to which he went in summer; but when the dark shortdays of winter set in with swooping storms of rain and wind, she held him,so far as she could, close prisoner, and pored with him over tasks to thefull as difficult to herself as to him. So far as a fine, open-hearted,generous disposition, truthful and straightforward, could make him, herepaid all the love and affection she could bear him.

He was well-grown,good-looking, and brave. There was scarcely an exercise of which he wasnot master; and whether in the saddle over a stiff country, or on thethwart of a boat in a stormy sea, Tony Butler could hold his own againstall competitors. The leap of twenty feet four inches he had made on thelevel sward was one of the show objects of the village, and the placewhere he had pitched a fourteen-pound sledge to the top of a cliff wasmarked by a stone with a rude attempt at an inscription. Fortunate was heif these were enough for glory, for his gifts scarcely rose to higherthings.

He was not clever, nor was he very teachable; his apprehension wasnot quick, and his memory was bad. The same scatterbrained forgetfulnessthat he had in little things attended him in more serious ones. Wheneverhis intellect was called on for a great effort he was sure to bevanquished, and he would sit for hours before an open book as hopeless ofmastering it as though the volume were close-clasped and locked beforehim. Dull men are not generally alive to their own dulness; but Tony was,—hesaw and felt it very bitterly.

He thought, it is true, that there ought tobe a way to his intellect, if it could only be discovered, but he owned tohimself he had not found it; and, with some lingering hope of it, he wouldcarry his books to his room and sit down to them with a resolute heart,and ponder and puzzle and wonder, till he either fell asleep over thepages, or felt the scalding tears blinding him with the conscious thoughtthat he was not equal to the task before him.Strange enough, his mother, cheated by that love which filled every avenueof her heart, marked little of this. She thought that Tony had no greattaste for music, nor patience enough for drawing. She fancied he deemedhistory dry, and rather undervalued geography. If he hated French, it wasbecause he was such an intense Anglican; and as to figures, his poor dearfather had no great skill in them, and indeed his ruined fortune came oftampering with them. Though thus, item by item, she would have beenreduced to own that Tony was not much of a scholar, she wouldunhesitatingly have declared that he was a remarkably gifted boy, andequal to any condition he could be called to fulfil.

There was this muchof excuse for her credulity,—he was a universal favorite. There wasnot a person of any class who had other than a good word for him; andthis, be it remarked, in a country where people fall into few raptures,and are rarely enthusiasts. The North of Ireland is indeed as cold a soilfor the affections as it is ungenial in its vegetation.

Love finds it justas hard to thrive as the young larch-trees, nipped as they are by cuttingwinds and sleety storms; and to have won favor where it is weighed out soscrupulously, implied no petty desert. There is, however, a rigid sense ofjustice which never denies to accord its due to each. Tony had gained hisreputation by an honest verdict, the award of a jury who had seen him fromhis childhood and knew him well.The great house of the county was Sir Arthur Lyle's, and there Tony Butleralmost might be said to live.

His word was law in the stables, the kennel,the plantations, and the boat-quay. All liked him.

A VERY “FINE GENTLEMAN”One word about Mr. Norman Maitland, of whom this history will havesomething more to say hereafter.

He was one of those men, too few innumber to form a class, but of which nearly every nation on the Continenthas some examples,—men with good manners and good means, met withalways in the great world,—at home in the most exclusive circles,much thought of, much caressed; but of whom, as to family, friends, orbelongings, no one can tell anything. They who can recall the society ofParis some forty years back, will remember such a man in Montrond. Rich,accomplished, handsome, and with the most fascinating address, Montrondwon his way into circles the barriers to which extended even to royalty;and yet all the world were asking, “Who is he?—who knows him?”Maitland was another of these. Men constantly canvassed him, agreed thathe was not of these “Maitlands” or of those—that nobody was atschool with him,—none remembered him at Eton or at Rugby. He firstburst upon life at Cambridge, where he rode boldly, was a first-ratecricketer, gave splendid wine-parties, wrote a prize poem, and disappearednone ever knew whence or wherefore.

He was elected for a borough, but onlywas seen twice or thrice in the House. He entered the army, but leftwithout joining his regiment. He was to be heard of in every city ofEurope, living sumptuously, playing high,—more often a loser than awinner. His horses, his carriages, his liveries, were models; and whereverhe went his track could be marked in the host of imitators he left behindhim. For some four or five years back all that was known of him was insome vague paragraph appearing from time to time that some tourist had methim in the Rocky Mountains, or that he had been seen in Circassia.

AnArchduke on his travels had partaken of his hospitality in the extremenorth of India; and one of our naval commanders spoke of dining on boardhis yacht in the Southern Pacific. Those who were curious about himlearned that he was beginning to show some slight touches of years,—howhe had grown fatter, some said more serious and grave,—and a fewcensoriously hinted that his beard and moustaches were a shade darker thanthey used to be.

Maitland, in short, was just beginning to drop out ofpeople's minds, when he reappeared once more in England, looking inreality very little altered, save that his dark complexion seemed a littledarker from travel, and he was slightly, very slightly, bald on the top ofthe head.It was remarked, however, that his old pursuits, which were purely thoseof pleasure or dissipation, had not, to all appearance, the same hold onhim as before. IN LONDONSeeking one's fortune is a very gambling sort of affair. It is leaving somuch to chance, trusting so implicitly to what is called “luck,” that itmakes all individual exertion a merely secondary process,—a kind of“auxiliary screw” to aid the gale of Fortune. It was pretty much in thisspirit that Tony Butler arrived in London; nor did the aspect of thatmighty sea of humanity serve to increase his sense of self-reliance. Itwas not merely his loneliness that he felt in that great crowd, but it washis utter inutility—his actual worthlessness—to all others.

Ifthe gamester's sentiment, to try his luck, was in his heart, it was thespirit of a very poor gambler, who had but one “throw” to risk on fortune;and, thus thinking, he set out for Downing Street.If he was somewhat disappointed in the tumble-down, ruinous old mass ofbuilding which held the state secrets of the empire, he was not the lessawestruck as he found himself at the threshold where the great men whoguide empires were accustomed to pass in. DOLLY STEWARTTony's first care, when he got back to his hotel, was to write to hismother. He knew how great her impatience would be to hear of him, and itwas a sort of comfort to himself, in his loneliness, to sit down and pourout his hopes and his anxieties before one who loved him. He told her ofhis meeting with the Minister, and, by way of encouragement, mentionedwhat Damer had pronounced upon that event. Nor did he forget to say howgrateful he felt to Damer, who, “after all, with his fine-gentleman airsand graces, might readily have turned a cold shoulder to a rough-lookingfellow like me.”Poor Tony!

In his friendlessness he was very grateful for very little. Noris there anything which is more characteristic of destitution than thissentiment. It is as with the schoolboy, who deems himself rich with ahalf-crown!Tony would have liked much to make some inquiry about the family at theAbbey; whether any one had come to ask after or look for him; whether Mrs.Trafford had sent down any books for his mother's reading, or any freshflowers,—the only present which the widow could be persuaded toaccept; but he was afraid to touch on a theme that had so many painfulmemories to himself. Ah, what happy days he had passed there! What abright dream it all appeared now to look back on! The long rides along theshore, with Alice for his companion, more free to talk with him, lessreserved than Isabella; and who could, on the pretext of her ownexperiences of life,—she was a widow of two-and-twenty,—cautionhim against so many pitfalls, and guard him against so many deceits of theworld. It was in this same quality of widow, too, that she could go out tosail with him alone, making long excursions along the coast, diving intobays, and landing on strange islands, giving them curious names as theywent, and fancying that they were new voyagers on unknown seas.Were such days ever to come back again?

No, he knew they could not Theynever do come back, even to the luckiest of us; and how far less would beour enjoyment of them if we but knew that each fleeting moment could neverbe re-acted! “I wonder, is Alice lonely? Does she miss me? Isabella willnot care so much.

She has books and her drawing, and she is soself-dependent; but Alice, whose cry was, 'Where 's Tony?' Till it becamea jest against her in the house.

Oh, if she but knew how I envy the dogthat lies at her feet, and that can look up into her soft blue eyes, andwonder what she is thinking of! Well, Alice, it has come at last. Here isthe day you so long predicted. I have set out to seek my fortune; butwhere is the high heart and the bold spirit you promised me? I have nodoubt,” cried he, as he paced his room impatiently, “there are plenty whowould say, it is the life of luxurious indolence and splendor that I amsorrowing after; that it is to be a fancied great man,—to havehorses to ride, and servants to wait on me, and my every wish gratified,—itis all this I am regretting. But I know better!

Evidence suggests that Alfred was created by the writers of the —Victor McLeod, Leslie Swabacker, and Harry Fraser—and that DC Comics asked Don Cameron to write the first Alfred story, which was published prior to the serial's release. Fictional character biography In Alfred's first appearance, he was overweight and clean-shaven; however, when the 1943 serial was released, the actor who played Alfred, was trim and sported a thin.

DC editors wanted the comic Alfred to resemble his cinematic counterpart, so in Detective Comics #83 (January 1944), Alfred vacationed at a health resort, where he slimmed down and grew a mustache. This look has remained with the character ever since, even surviving his apparent 'death' and resurrection. Alfred (later named Pennyworth) in his first appearance ever, as an overweight, bumbling detectiveAlfred was originally conceived as a for Batman. In most early tales, he made bungling attempts to be a on a par with the young masters.

He was given a four-page feature of his own, and the feature lasted thirteen issues, skipping Batman #35, with the last story in Batman #36. The stories followed a simple formula, with Alfred solving a crime and catching the culprits entirely by accident.

In later years, the comedic aspects of the character were downplayed.Pre-Crisis The comics (the comics that were published by DC Comics between 1938 and 1984) established Alfred as a retired actor and who followed the deathbed wish of his dying father (who he identified only as 'Jarvis') to carry on the tradition of serving the Wayne family. To that end, Alfred introduced himself to Bruce Wayne and at and insisted on becoming their valet. Although the pair did not want one, especially since they did not want to jeopardize their with a servant in the house, they did not have the heart to reject Alfred. Alfred in Batman #647 (Jan.

Later, a secret panel in Alfred's room opens, the result of a fail-safe planted by Bruce in the event of his death. Bruce leaves him one final task and also gives him an emotional goodbye, telling Alfred he considered him as a father.Alfred is left emotionally shattered, commenting more than once that, even if his biological fatherhood is a fabrication, in a deeper sense he actually was Bruce Wayne's father, having watched over him for years and feeling he failed him in the last moments.After the event of, when Batman was apparently killed in action, Alfred finds himself with the task of raising Bruce's biological son with Grayson.

Alfred did this so that, after years of service to the people of Gotham and the world, Bruce could finally accept his reward of a life without pain and the burning desire to be Batman, allowing his life as Bruce Wayne to finally begin. However, when the new villain Mr. Bloom launches a mass attack that apparently kills Jim Gordon-the new Batman-the amnesic Bruce pieces together enough information to deduce that he was once Batman, and convinces Alfred to subject him to a machine that will theoretically download all of his memories as Batman into his mind. Alfred in the third volume of Batman (2017). Art by Mitch Gerads.Bruce's original plan was for the machine to be used to create a series of clones of himself that could be programmed to continue his mission, but although the process failed because simulations confirmed that the human mind could not handle Batman's trauma, Bruce comes through the process by having Alfred take him to the point of brain-death and then download his memories onto his blank brain.
