"I don't know I want air. Howard, please let me go. It's-it's so hot inhere. You must let me go." Her release, she felt afterwards, was due less to a physical than a mental effort. She seemed suddenly to have cowed him, and his resistance became enfeebled. She broke from him, and opened the door, and reached the cement platform and the cold air.
