“
They
get
thicker
every
day
,
”
he
complained
in
a
thin
,
undependable
falsetto
.
"
Who
'd
have
thought
I
'd
live
to
see
the
time
when
a
man
would
be
afraid
of
his
life
on
the
way
to
the
Cliff
House
.
When
I
was
a
boy
,
Edwin
,
men
and
women
and
little
babies
used
to
come
out
here
from
San
Francisco
by
tens
of
thousands
on
a
nice
day
.
And
there
were
n't
any
bears
then
.
No
,
sir
.
They
used
to
pay
money
to
look
at
them
in
cages
,
they
were
that
rare
.
"
“
What
is
money
,
Granser
?
”
Before
the
old
man
could
answer
,
the
boy
recollected
and
triumphantly
shoved
his
hand
into
a
pouch
under
his
bear
-
skin
and
pulled
forth
a
battered
and
tarnished
silver
dollar
.
The
old
man
’
s
eyes
glistened
,
as
he
held
the
coin
close
to
them
.
“
I
can
’
t
see
,
”
he
muttered
.
“
You
look
and
see
if
you
can
make
out
the
date
,
Edwin
.
”
The
boy
laughed
.
“
You
’
re
a
great
Granser
,
”
he
cried
delightedly
,
“
always
making
believe
them
little
marks
mean
something
.
”
The
old
man
manifested
an
accustomed
chagrin
as
he
brought
the
coin
back
again
close
to
his
own
eyes
.
“
2012
,
”
he
shrilled
,
and
then
fell
to
cackling
grotesquely
.
“
That
was
the
year
Morgan
the
Fifth
was
appointed
President
of
the
United
States
by
the
Board
of
Magnates
.
It
must
have
been
one
of
the
last
coins
minted
,
for
the
Scarlet
Death
came
in
2013
.
Lord
!
Lord
!
—
think
of
it
!
Sixty
years
ago
,
and
I
am
the
only
person
alive
to
-
day
that
lived
in
those
times
.
Where
did
you
find
it
,
Edwin
?

The

,
who
had
been
regarding
him
with
the
tolerant
curiousness
one
accords
to
the
prattlings
of
the
feeble
-
minded
,
answered
promptly
.
