Il don't know, man," Bigger
said.
"Now, Mary, you can see that
the boy is new," said Mr.. Dalton.

The girl picked up the cat

There was a short interval of

unions. Maybe he would not be
hired now. Or, if hired, maybe
he would be fired soon, if she
kept acting like that. He had
never seen anyone like her be-

he had imagined she would be.
