ROY BUILDING, HALIFAX. N. S. llcad Office: Carlyle And His Canadian Sweetheart l i (By Blodwen Davies in the Canadian Magazine.) It was in the year when the girl- queen, Victoria, became a bride, a gay, elegant year in old London. Men and women. now pleasantly romantic phantoms, moving across the pages of reminiscences and diaries, were then accustomed to iide together‘ along the padded trail of Rotten Row, There, one morning, near to the gateway of Hyde Park, two riders ap- proached each other. One was a man somewhere over forty years of age, watching the fashionable show with a half-cynical, half-amused air. He was one of the mightiest of them all, but only a few of them suspect- ed it. In a flash he was tumbling from the lofty perch of his cool re- flections, falling trembling, shaken upon the ruins of a youthful dream. The woman rider who had crossed his vtsionwas a handsome, elegant- ly dressed, fair-skinned woman, who was idly and thoughtfully tapping her shoe with her riding crop. As they met she raised her eyes, her glance drawn magnetically toward him. For a transitory moment their eyes met and pierced, soul deep. Then without missing a hoof beat, her horse carried on, without a word, and she was gone. None of the chat- tering crowd knew that for an in- slant the world had stood still, that a man and a woman, with lightning swiftness, had rehearsed scenes of tenderness, of devotion, of agony. The man was Thomas Cnrylethc woman was his Canad rmccthcart, Margaret Gordon. It was a score of years sincc Car- lylc and Margaret had said their, stormy adicux, each of them had takcn other mates, yet when many, many more years had passed Tho- mas Cnrlyle sct down that chalice, that brief encounter, among his‘ memories. What would have been! the life story of Carlyle if Margaret! Gordon, and not Jane Welsh,‘ had‘ become his wife? There is unlimited material for; speculation there, and for one thing, Prince Edward Island would have had a greater share of fame, for Margaret Gordon was born in Charlottetown. It was in 1770 that all Irishman, Lvlllilar Patterson, arrived in the. Island of St. John, as it thcn was. to act as zldlnfnistrutol- of lhc Brl . colony. He loved the Island andhc madr. enormous personal sacrifices for il., and in rl-turn he cxpccted to be allowed to rule with all the outn- cracy of one of his own early Irish kings. On the Island, Governor Patter- son contracted un irregular union with a pretty girl by the 'name of Margaret Hydc, one of a family which had crossed in the same year. and perhaps in the same vcsselwlth Patterson. Three years previously, when the whole of the island had been given away in one way, by o. curious lottery ill London, Patterson and his brother John hnd drawn Lot Nineteen be- tween them, in return for pre- vious services to the state. That lot lies along the shores of Malpeqilc \ \¢s_/ '5" .IF YOU CANT? PREVENT IT" -..-. S-s-s-s-s-—bump, bump, bump. If happens once you have yourspare. If it happens twice-nuke! c5014! It?

Among their four children was Margaret Patter- son. Enter Margaret Gordon. Twenty years after Governor Pat- terson's arrival, young Dr. Alexan- der Gordon was granted land in the Capital, on part of which St. James‘ Presbyterian church stands today. A few months after he acquired the land hc was married, presumably in St. Paul's church, to Margaret Put- tcrson. wh-ilc her father was in Loli- dnn struggling for a. recognition of ills rights on the Island. To Alexan- der Gordon and his wlfc were born four children whose births and bap- tlsms are registered in the old rc- cords of St. Pauls church. There you may read that on August 24th, i798, was born Margaret Gordon and there she was baptized on the 23rd of September, 1799. Dr. Gordon was neither a very lucky nor a very prudent man. In 1800 he was appointed apothecnry to the forces in Nova Scotia and in August of that year he set out with Mrs. Gordon and his four little chi!- drcn for Halifax, his property bein r seized to satisfy his Island creditors.

But Irving was so liberul with lllS floggings that even Kirka‘ ‘v re- belled and set up an opposition school. The new school master came from Edward Irving's home. and his name was Thomas Carlyle. Irving opened his home, his lib- rary and his heart to his rival and there in Kirkcaldy was founded one of the notable friendships of the nineteenth centuries. The tastes of Irving and Carlyle had much in common. Irving aban- doned his customary walks and talks with his pupils and devoted himself almost exclusively to Car- lyle. They spent hours and even Irving had, previous to the coming but subsc- grad ilatcrl ‘But Bclln was jcnl- two Of this episode, Carlyle writes: "By far the cleverest and bright- st, however, an ex-pupil of Irving's, otherwise. being poorish, proud and well-bred! kind of alien in the place, I did Etl oftly elegant, softly grave, witty eal of grncefulness, intelligence and cas; and here, as Irving's cx-pnpil, dim Carlyle did ilot write that until Carlylefls latest biographer, who is “She was one of the living flowers Bella Martin's Jealousy was ap- Margaret was instantly aware that he young school teacher had not he remotest chance of finding favor wo curiously unsophisticated young There is ling iimusing In the hat she did not suspect it wccMar- In i803 Dr. Gordon set out from ers for Scotland, there to seek aid heart for his wife and boys whom don fell ill on the voyage and died So his two little girls, Mary, seven and a half, and Margaret, four and a fax could not claim a pension and she was compelled to struggle on alone, taking in dressmaking for the fashionable ladies of Halifaictofeed Meantime, by way of contrast, a first cousin of Mrs. Gordon's, in New York, had married no less a person than Jerome Bonaparte, a Mrs. Gordon must have been an troubles, for in 1806, when she was ried Dr. Hugh Guthrie, a surgeon just He it was who, in the years to come, introduced Margaret Meantime, however, the two little girls had been sent to Scotland, to Dr. Gordon's sister, Mrs. Usher, who She was the childless widow of a minister, living modestly on on annuity of thirty- Scottish conscience was faced with two The tranquility of her home would ilccds give way to childish clattcl", the calm of un- hampcrcd middle age be disturbed iambm-niby thc training of two girls, the ‘mcagrc but assured livelihood of her old ugc glvc place to ever increasing Mrs. Usher bravely shoul- dered her duty.

Carlyle was now more chccrfill, more ambitious than he had ever been before, fired with a desire to make a pllice in the world for Mar- garet. He was already earning con- siderably more than the combined income of Mrs. Usher and her two nieces, but he wanted to set his feel. firmly on the path that led up to succeess.

There was an impassioned znterview. in which Carlyle begged sternly rcfilsedto return to their old relationship. Carlyle describes the lneetlng—or the parting-in Sartor Resartus, for in that, Blumine is drawn from Margaret Gordon, and Garlyles own story is told in part. Of that farewell Mrs. Usher was ap- parently not aware, for she arrang- ed that Margaret and Carlyle should bid each other a formal adieu. That painful visit to Kirkcaldy was the last time that Carlyle ever spoke to terview. Mrs. Usher. "the lean, ni- llcrly dame," stood guard. Carlyle did not tnkc his dismissal busily. Hc thereafter prcsscd his claims upon hcr storlnily and carn- estly and apparently. they found ways and means to keep up thcir clandestine correspondence fnr a time.
