'Heavy clouds darkened the Dodderdown Church one Sunday in December. There was a baptism in progress that afternoon.' A little later on, 'What name?' he asked crossly. 'Mark' replied Mr Andrews, and then added a little louder, 'Mark only.' . . . . 'Mark Only, I baptize thee in the name of the Holy Ghost.' A mistake, of course, but this accident of nomenclature sets the principal character on a life of misfortune.
