The
old
lady
stared
.
"
Mister
,
you
know
what
them
things
cost
?
I
been
begging
the
welfare
for
two
years
,
and
there
ain
’
t
no
way
I
can
get
them
things
for
Nancy
.
"
Ragen
went
on
his
way
,
deep
in
thought
.
That
evening
he
told
Arthur
to
find
out
which
medical
-
supply
warehouse
would
have
childrens
wheelchairs
and
leg
braces
.
Though
he
was
irritated
at
being
distracted
from
his
reading
,
as
well
as
at
Ragens
demanding
tone
,
Arthur
humored
him
and
made
several
phone
calls
to
medical
-
supply
distributors
.
He
discovered
a
company
in
Kentucky
that
had
the
size
Ragen
describecd
.
He
gave
Ragen
the
model
numbers
and
the
warehouse
address
,
but
asked
,
"
What
do
you
want
this
information
for
?
"
Ragen
didn
’
t
bother
to
answer
.
That
night
Ragen
took
the
car
,
his
tools
and
a
nylon
rope
,
and
drove
south
to
Louisville
.
He
found
the
hospital
-
supply
warehouse
and
waited
until
he
was
certain
everyone
had
left
.
It
would
not
be
difficult
to
break
into
;
he
would
not
even
need
Tommy
’
s
help
.
Strapping
on
the
tools
,
Ragen
climbed
over
the
wire
fence
,
slipped
around
to
the
side
of
the
building
hidden
from
the
street
and
examined
the
brickwork
alongside
the
drainpipe
.
In
TV
shows
he
had
seen
,
cat
burglars
always
carried
grappling
hooks
to
climb
up
to
the
roof
.
Ragen
sneered
at
such
devices
.
He
fished
a
steel
shoehorn
out
of
his
bag
and
removed
the
lace
from
his
left
running
shoe
.
With
the
lace
he
tied
the
shoehorn
so
that
its
curved
end
turned
downward
near
the
tip
of
his
shoe
,
creating
a
hook
that
served
as
a
crampon
.
He
climbed
up
to
the
roof
,
cut
a
hole
in
the
skylight
,
reached
in
and
unlocked
it
and
,
using
the
nylon
rope
fastened
to
a
bracket
,
slid
down
the
line
into
the
building
.
It
reminded
him
of
the
times
he
’
d
gone
mountain
climbing
with
Jim
years
ago
.
With
the
model
numbers
Arthur
had
supplied
,
Ragen
searched
the
warehouse
for
nearly
an
hour
before
he
found
what
he
wanted
—
a
pair
of
leg
braces
for
a
four
-
year
-
old
child
,
and
a
small
collapsible
wheelchair
.
He
unlocked
a
window
,
lowered
the
braces
and
wheelchair
to
the
ground
,
and
climbed
out
.
Then
he
put
everything
into
the
car
and
drove
back
to
Columbus
.
It
was
morning
when
he
pulled
up
to
Nancy
’
s
house
and
knocked
on
the
door
.
"
I
have
something
for
little
Nancy
,
"
he
said
to
the
old
lady
,
who
peered
at
him
through
the
window
.
He
brought
the
wheelchair
up
from
the
car
,
opened
it
and
showed
them
how
it
worked
.
Then
he
showed
Nancy
how
to
put
on
the
leg
braces
.
