And Billy did not think of it as strange till Buzz’s grandmother called from behind the window curtain, “Delia, you surely won’t traipse through town with that crowd! How you will look!” During Betty’s illness these one-sided dialogues were more than usually plentiful.

The disgusted artist got up and with a huge hand wiped his handkerchief across his perspiring brow.
