Excerpt from A Fool's Errand Quentin dillon was back in London again, suffering from a sense of general ¿atness. There seemed to be no more ups and downs or tremendous moments left in life. The waves of war had receded, and the feverish exalta tions, the queerly inconsequent intricacies, and all the horror, as well as much of the zest of the past, had vanished quietly and was no longer there. If fete days ask for to-morrow, it is also true that misery, and the terrible intoxication of a long ordeal, makes its demand for some thing further, to stir the soul. Though he had once longed for a renewal of the old order of things, he did not know then that change had touched him with a strong, formative hand, and a gap wider than years alone separated the old Quentin Dillon from the man who stared out of the window of his club in Pall Mall.
