The societies and institutions in which the Colonel and Ursula Winwood were interested flourished amazingly beneath his touch.

The Girls' Club in the Isle of Dogs, long since abandoned in despair by the young Guardsman, grew into a popular and sweetly mannered nunnery.

The Central London Home for the Indigent Blind, which had been languishing for support, in spite of Miss Winwood's efforts, found itself now in a position to build a much-needed wing.

There was also, most wonderful and, important thing of all, the Young England League, which was covering him with steadily increasing glory.

Of this much hereafter.
