obeys a vulgar summons at her own

apologizing for having to go so soon.
A few minutes later, the hour of sup

She was descending the stairs when
a commotion from below, a sound of
voices. loud, argumentative, rising and
falling In excited chorus, hurried her
steps The lower hall, lit with lamps

current of cold could be felt in the

the stove.
