Hope police station, where there is a 'phone with which to "get in touch" again and then a Mission rocker on the screened veranda where the breezes of the near-by Atlantic will have you well cooled off before you can catch the shuttle-train back to Gatun. Or another led out across the lake by the old abandoned line that was the main line when first I saw Gatun.
