He
was
looking
that
way
now
and
the
projected
print
moved
along
the
screen
,
but
he
was
not
really
reading
but
simply
avoiding
the
eyes
of
his
boss
across
the
table
.
Mrs
.
Douglas
did
not
read
newspapers
;
she
had
other
ways
of
finding
out
what
she
needed
to
know
.

He
looked
up
and
the
machine
stopped
.
"
Yes
,
my
dear
?
"
"
You
have
something
on
your
mind
"
"
Eh
?
What
makes
you
say
that
,
my
dear
?
"
"
Joseph
,
I
haven
t
watched
you
and
coddled
you
and
darned
your
socks
and
kept
you
out
of
trouble
for
thirty
-
five
years
for
nothing
.
I
know
when
there
is
something
on
your
mind
.

The
hell
of
it
is
,
he
admitted
to
himself
,
she
does
know
.
He
looked
at
her
and
wondered
why
he
had
ever
let
her
bully
him
into
no
-
termination
contract
.
Originally
she
had
been
only
his
secretary
,
back
in
the
days
(
he
thought
of
them
as
"
The
Good
Old
Days
"
)
when
he
had
been
a
state
legislator
,
beating
the
bushes
for
individual
votes
.
Their
first
contract
had
been
a
simple
ninety
day
cohabitation
agreement
,
supposedly
to
economize
scarce
campaign
funds
by
saving
on
hotel
bills
;
both
of
them
had
agreed
that
it
was
merely
a
convenience
,
with
"
cohabitation
"
to
be
construed
simply
as
living
under
one
roof
?
and
she
hadn
t
darned
his
socks
even
then
!
He
tried
to
remember
how
and
when
the
situation
had
changed
.
Mrs
.
Douglas
s
official
biography
,
Shadow
of
Greatness
:
One
Woman
s
Story
,
stated
that
he
had
proposed
to
her
during
the
counting
of
ballots
in
his
first
election
to
office
and
that
such
was
his
romantic
need
that
nothing
would
do
but
old
-
fashioned
,
death
-
do
-
us
-
part
marriage
.
Well
,
he
didn
t
remember
it
that
way
but
there
was
no
use
arguing
with
the
official
version
.
