But
the
moment
he
WAS
awake
he
leapt
to
his
feet
,
put
his
hands
to
his
head
"
like
a
mad
maniac
,
"
as
Phyllis
said
afterwards
,
and
shouted
:
--
"
Oh
,
my
heavens
--
what
's
o'clock
?
"
"
Twelve
thirteen
,
"
said
Peter
,
and
indeed
it
was
by
the
white-faced
,
round-faced
clock
on
the
wall
of
the
signal-box
.

The
man
looked
at
the
clock
,
sprang
to
the
levers
,
and
wrenched
them
this
way
and
that
.
An
electric
bell
tingled
--
the
wires
and
cranks
creaked
,
and
the
man
threw
himself
into
a
chair
.
He
was
very
pale
,
and
the
sweat
stood
on
his
forehead
"
like
large
dewdrops
on
a
white
cabbage
,
"
as
Phyllis
remarked
later
.
He
was
trembling
,
too
;
the
children
could
see
his
big
hairy
hands
shake
from
side
to
side
,
"
with
quite
extra-sized
trembles
,
"
to
use
the
subsequent
words
of
Peter
.
He
drew
long
breaths
.
Then
suddenly
he
cried
,
"
Thank
God
,
thank
God
you
come
in
when
you
did
--
oh
,
thank
God
!
"
and
his
shoulders
began
to
heave
and
his
face
grew
red
again
,
and
he
hid
it
in
those
large
hairy
hands
of
his
.
"
Oh
,
do
n't
cry
--
do
n't
,
"
said
Phyllis
,
"
it
's
all
right
now
,
"
and
she
patted
him
on
one
big
,
broad
shoulder
,
while
Peter
conscientiously
thumped
the
other
.
But
the
signalman
seemed
quite
broken
down
,
and
the
children
had
to
pat
him
and
thump
him
for
quite
a
long
time
before
he
found
his
handkerchief
--
a
red
one
with
mauve
and
white
horseshoes
on
it
--
and
mopped
his
face
and
spoke
.
During
this
patting
and
thumping
interval
a
train
thundered
by
.
"
I
'm
downright
shamed
,
that
I
am
,
"
were
the
words
of
the
big
signalman
when
he
had
stopped
crying
;
"
snivelling
like
a
kid
.
"
Then
suddenly
he
seemed
to
get
cross
.
"
And
what
was
you
doing
up
here
,
anyway
?
"
he
said
;
"
you
know
it
ai
n't
allowed
.

"
Yes
,
"
said
Phyllis
,
"
we
knew
it
was
wrong
--
but
I
was
n't
afraid
of
doing
wrong
,
and
so
it
turned
out
right
.
You
are
n't
sorry
we
came
.
"
"
Lor
'
love
you
--
if
you
had
n't
'
a
'
come
--
"
he
stopped
and
then
went
on
.
"
It
's
a
disgrace
,
so
it
is
,
sleeping
on
duty
.
If
it
was
to
come
to
be
known
--
even
as
it
is
,
when
no
harm
's
come
of
it
.
"
"
It
wo
n't
come
to
be
known
,
"
said
Peter
;
"
we
are
n't
sneaks
.
All
the
same
,
you
ought
n't
to
sleep
on
duty
--
it
's
dangerous
.
"
