Christie, the King's Servant A Sequel to "Christie's Old Organ" Reading ease score: 85.2 (6th grade). Easy to read. E-text prepared by Joel Erickson, Michael Ciesielski, David Garcia, and the Project Gutenberg Online Distributed Proofreading Team "Christie, the King's Servant" by Mrs. O. F. Walton is a novel likely written in the late 19th century. The story appears to follow the character Jack, a young artist seeking inspiration for his work while reflecting on his past, including memories of his mother, and his recent personal losses. The narrative unfolds as he visits the picturesque Runswick Bay, where he encounters the local fishing community, develops friendships, and contemplates deeper questions about life and faith. At the start of the novel, Jack is ruminating on how he was drawn back to Runswick Bay by a bunch of yellow ragwort gathered by a young girl named Ella. This leads him to reflect on his earlier visit to the picturesque village, which he recalls vividly despite the passage of twenty years. After arriving there, he seeks a place to stay while looking for subjects to paint. As he acclimates to the community and its people, including a fisherman named Duncan and his family, Jack grapples with feelings of loss and connection, as well as existential queries triggered by a local preacher, setting the stage for a journey of self-discovery and the search for purpose.
