I planned to get you all here for a totally different purpose, and I trust you will approve of my craftiness when you have seen what I have to show you.",Suddenly he woke with a start. Somebody was rapping gently on the shutters of the middle window. Glancing at the clock, Jen saw that it was three in the morning, and wondering who could be outside at so untimely an hour, he rose to open the window.
