Morton hastened on, protectively, a bit critically: "You fellows sport around a good deal, don't you?... I can't afford to.... Well, good night. Glad to met you, Mr. Poppins. G' night, old Wr " "Going to the ferry? For Jersey? I'll walk over with you," said Mr. Wrenn. Their walk was quiet and, for Mr. Wrenn, tragically sad.
"Later on, it won't seem so sudden," she added plausibly. "People are so silly." The sound of another battle in Duck Square awoke them. The shop was very chilly, and quite dark. Their faces were only pale ovals in the blackness. She shivered. "I must go! I have to pack." He clasped her: and she was innocently content: she was a young girl again. "I'll walk up with you," he said protectively.
