finally reached the train, he ascended
the rear platform. and, facing about to
the thrOng which had closed around

height. removed his hat. and stood for
several seconds in profound silence
His eye rOved sadly over that sea OF
upturned faces and he thought he read
in them again the sympathy and

and which he never needed more than
he did then. There was an unusual
