The agents at the docks along the
waterfront are the most patient set OF
individuals and the difficulties that some
OF them have to undergo are sometimes
more than flesh and blood can bear, The
most exasperating questions are asked
and usually from women.
Yesterday morning Agent Mitchell
was accosted by two young ladies who
wanted to know when the Roanoke
would get in. Mr. Hitchel replied that
she was due that day but could not say
for certain when she would be in. She
might get in any time.
The look that came over the Young
ladies' face was one in which contempt
was trying to master seorn. The bravest
of the two, the one who did the talking,
voiced her sentiments in no uncertain
language.
To hear her talk it would convey the i'm.
preston that Mr.. Mitchell had commit
ted some heinous crime; that he had
lied about something, and furthermore
he had Just hid the Roanoke out around
the dock somewhere and was going to
keep her all for himself and tell no one
about it,
But we want to know when the boat
is gong to come in" persisted the young
woman, her amazement increasing.
well, l can't tell you" replied the
agent in his most pleasant manner ut
may be sometime today and then it may
not be until this evening ! can't tell
you exactly. Anything might delay her.
But the young lady had the last
word.
I'VE have friends on that ship" she
asserted. "and we want to see them. We
told them that we would be here to
meet them and they are expecting US.
What would they do if we verne here
Oh, what would they do? What would
Nell thing of it?"
| Dumfounded with the thought of what
