After one turn she stops abruptly, near an entrance. Just as Mona crosses the threshold, a man, stepping from among the group that lies in shadow, approaching the stretcher, puts forth his hand, as though he would lift the sheet and look upon what it so carefully conceals.

"Your husband is looking for you," she says to Mona, in an icy tone. "You had better go to him. This is no place for you." "Are you going no farther?" asks Rodney, hoping sincerely she will say "No." She does say it..
