 She glanced at the sky. The fog had lifted and clouds, wind-driven, were scudding across the full moon. To the east stretched the Brooklyn Bridge, strung with its bangle of twinkling yellow lights. The jagged skyline of New York pireced the heavens to the west and north, breaking into rosy-glare where Broadway interrupted. The dock it. self was deserted. The barge boats, roped together like so many logs, bobbed cork fashion with the rising tide, sometimes scraping the pier with their sides, as a boat passed. Lamps gleamed from their cabins. Smoke drifted 1azily up on the evening air. Occasionally the smell of coffee and frying bacon floated toward Marie and Tommy.
 Some difference between this and your life up there," said Tom my, jerking his head in the direc-j tion of midtown New York. "Ever sorry you've gotta leave off being 8 model in that ritzy store and come back here?" He drew her to him.
 Don't be silly" She side- stepped his arms. What happened to the fight? I heard shouting, then I saw you running and now everybody's gone."

 Baptiste La Porte stuck an angry head out. "Mon Dieu! Whats all theeSe conversation? Marie, eet is not you! With that Tommee Ryan? Tell him to leave at once!'
 La Porte banged the hatch shut and scrambled over the barge toward the pier, cursing Tommy freely in French as he went. Whenever he was deeply moved he lapsed into Cadian patois. On the lean side, with the rangy body of North woodsman, his face was long and lean. Neither his mus tache nor black hair had streak of gray in it. Though grotesque, he was not without dignity.
 You say you love my daughter, Marie" he shouted at Tommy, "and yet you would take the very bread from her father" .1n
