Jorgensen said that while he had been
waiting for her: he had telephoned to
the station and found that the first
train down TO Foxville left at $50 am;
I'VE change at Wayne Junction and
reach Foxyille at noon. That is the
very best we can CO."
II was agonizing to think Of those
hours that must be endured before she
could get on her way. Jorgensen said

and had brought all the money he
had at his home-nearly 5000. She.
after search in her purse, discovered

sob, you don't know how I've waited

At 6 o'clock they summoned a cab
and drove to the station. The streets
Of Chicago were deep. biack-walled
rav;nes. The skyline a jagged silhou-
smoky. torn, streaked with dull red
Hard. black and solid. The snow
crunched under the wheels, the Car
swung and lurched -.
Jorgensen, IN an ancient fur coat and
peaked AStrakfan cap, looked more like
an ancient priest than the defeated
dreaming old sculptor. He sat there,
huddled UP. his long nose buried in
his furs. Old and weak. He let the
streets slide by T.. But Jenny sat bolt
upright. Her eyes were bright. And
she trenlbled occasionally and looked
I'd at the sky. That raw red dawn
over the black mountains OF Chi
cago -.
At the station they saw a negro
walking along the platform TO the train.
There was something familiar about
him.
Alexander"
The negro turned ard saw Jenny
Cain waving 70 him. The two suit
cases he waS holding crashed TO the
ground He turned 10 run.

Alexander summoned his nerves.
He stood there, shaking as If he had

Alexander when he felt the touch OF
her hand. Strike me daid If all didn't
think you was ghost!"
