He turned q corner and stopped in a

An hour later Ballou was back at the

came to the door. I've had something
to drink. But didn't forget you!"
She thanked him happily for the bottle
of cherry wine he bought. and pointed
toward the decanter and glasses on her
tea table. Ballou poured two brandy
glasses half full of liquor and they
drank. He talked Of an outing in the
country they were planning for the next
week AS the little ships clock on the
mantel struck five bells. Ballou poured
another drink and rose to 60. He
stopped under the shaded lamp, and
kissed her good-by. Then the door
