Soon she spoke, at times, musingly. "I did make up to you, at first," she said. "In Omaha, and on the train."
Thus it comes." "Thus it comes? It be there in the paper?" Imber's voice sank in whisperful awe as he crackled the sheets 'twixt thumb and finger and stared at the charactery scrawled thereon.
