Ed was as black as a negro, and swearing about coal-burners in general and this one in particular, and made so much noise with his fire-irons after we started, that the old man came over and sat behind me, so as to be able to talk. The first time I looked around after getting out of the yard, I noticed his long slim hand on the top of the reverse-lever.
Did you ever notice how it seems to make an ex-engineer feel better and more satisfied to get his hand on the reverse-lever and feel the life-throbs of the great giant under him? Why, his hand goes there by instinct just as an ambulance surgeon will feel for the heart of the boy with a broken leg. I asked the stranger to "give her a whirl," and noticed with what eager joy he took hold of her.
An electric car would not be ploughing through the gloom at that rate, without a ray of light, merely for the fun of the thing. A smile of contempt curled the lip of the driver as he cut the reverse-lever back to the first notch, put on the injector, and opened the throttle yet a little wider. The two machines were running almost neck and neck now.
