Excerpt from Gallia

A little thought will usually show where a story begins. Gurdon considered very rightly that his began with a visit he paid to old Mrs. Leighton in Cornwall Gardens. At least he knew it did not begin when he was at home, nor when he was at Rugby, nor yet when he spent two years at the Lycee in Bordeaux (though he hesitated about this part, and sometimes wondered if that had been the prologue). The interval of his life in Munich and his life in London, and again at Oxford, where he passed his examination for the Civil Service, was a barren period, with no suggestion of a story about it. But the call he had felt himself impelled to make in Cornwall Gardens, because Mrs. Leighton was a connection of the Secretary of State for the Colonies, and by no means a quantite négligeable, had something about it of an inaugurative character, and when he looked back upon it, he perceived that this was because it had quite certainly ushered in an incident.
