Use
a
false
name
and
alter
your
handwriting
as
much
as
possible
.
Assume
that
you
will
be
successful
.
And
whisper
,
whisper
--
let
your
language
be
soft
,
your
tone
tender
,
loving
,
even
.
It
must
be
,
if
you
are
to
win
her
to
your
will
now
.
So
the
Efrit
of
his
own
darker
self
.
And
then
at
noon
on
Tuesday
,
July
sixth
,
the
station
platform
of
the
railroad
running
from
Fonda
to
Utica
,
with
Roberta
stepping
down
from
the
train
which
came
south
from
Biltz
to
await
Clyde
,
for
the
train
that
was
to
take
them
to
Utica
was
not
due
for
another
half
hour
.
And
fifteen
minutes
later
Clyde
himself
coming
from
a
side
street
and
approaching
the
station
from
the
south
,
from
which
position
Roberta
could
not
see
him
but
from
where
,
after
turning
the
west
corner
of
the
depot
and
stationing
himself
behind
a
pile
of
crates
,
he
could
see
her
.
How
thin
and
pale
indeed
!
By
contrast
with
Sondra
,
how
illy-dressed
in
the
blue
traveling
suit
and
small
brown
hat
with
which
she
had
equipped
herself
for
this
occasion
--
the
promise
of
a
restricted
and
difficult
life
as
contrasted
with
that
offered
by
Sondra
.
And
she
was
thinking
of
compelling
him
to
give
up
Sondra
in
order
to
marry
her
,
and
from
which
union
he
might
never
be
able
to
extricate
himself
until
such
time
as
would
make
Sondra
and
all
she
represented
a
mere
recollection
.
The
difference
between
the
attitudes
of
these
two
girls
--
Sondra
with
everything
offering
all
--
asking
nothing
of
him
;
Roberta
,
with
nothing
,
asking
all
.
A
feeling
of
dark
and
bitter
resentment
swept
over
him
and
he
could
not
help
but
feel
sympathetic
toward
that
unknown
man
at
Pass
Lake
and
secretly
wish
that
he
had
been
successful
.
Perhaps
he
,
too
,
had
been
confronted
by
a
situation
just
like
this
.
And
perhaps
he
had
done
right
,
too
,
after
all
,
and
that
was
why
it
had
not
been
found
out
.
His
nerves
twitched
.
His
eyes
were
somber
,
resentful
and
yet
nervous
.
Could
it
not
happen
again
successfully
in
this
case
?
But
here
he
was
now
upon
the
same
platform
with
her
as
the
result
of
her
persistent
and
illogical
demands
,
and
he
must
be
thinking
how
,
and
boldly
,
he
must
carry
out
the
plans
which
,
for
four
days
,
or
ever
since
he
had
telephoned
her
,
and
in
a
dimmer
way
for
the
ten
preceding
those
,
he
had
been
planning
.
This
settled
course
must
not
be
interfered
with
now
.
He
must
act
!
He
must
not
let
fear
influence
him
to
anything
less
than
he
had
now
planned
.
And
so
it
was
that
he
now
stepped
forth
in
order
that
she
might
see
him
,
at
the
same
time
giving
her
a
wise
and
seemingly
friendly
and
informative
look
as
if
to
say
,
"
You
see
I
am
here
.
"
But
behind
the
look
!
If
only
she
could
have
pierced
beneath
the
surface
and
sensed
that
dark
and
tortured
mood
,
how
speedily
she
would
have
fled
.
But
now
seeing
him
actually
present
,
a
heavy
shadow
that
was
lurking
in
her
eyes
lifted
,
the
somewhat
down-turned
corners
of
her
mouth
reversed
themselves
,
and
without
appearing
to
recognize
him
,
she
nevertheless
brightened
and
at
once
proceeded
to
the
window
to
purchase
her
ticket
to
Utica
,
as
he
had
instructed
her
to
do
.
And
she
was
now
thinking
that
at
last
,
at
last
he
had
come
.
And
he
was
going
to
take
her
away
.
And
hence
a
kind
of
gratefulness
for
this
welling
up
in
her
.
For
they
were
to
be
together
for
seven
or
eight
months
at
the
least
.
And
while
it
might
take
tact
and
patience
to
adjust
things
,
still
it
might
and
probably
could
be
done
.
