Cresswell and Stillings had a long conference, and when Stillings hastened away he could not forbear cutting a discreet pigeon-wing as he rounded the corner. He had been promised the backing of the whole Southern delegation in his schemes. That night Teerswell called on him in his modest lodgings, where over hot whiskey and water they talked.
"The right sort of Negro one like Stillings appointed to a reasonable position, would do both," opined Cresswell. "It evidently didn't," Mrs. Vanderpool interjected. Cresswell arose. "I tell you, Mr. Easterly, I object it mustn't go through." He took his leave. Mrs. Vanderpool did not readily give up her plea for Alwyn, and bade Zora get Mr. Smith on the telephone for discussion.
This Stillings came to me again cursing and threatening, saying: "His wife would fix me." Although this man was disturbing the peace, disorderly and dangerous, no one offered to arrest him. He held me, while four women ran from some place with whips and sticks.
"They visit Senator Smith's together; he takes her home from the Treble Clef; they say he talked to nobody else at her party; she recommends him for the campaign " "What!" Teerswell again exploded. But Stillings continued smoothly: "Oh, I have ways of finding things out. She corresponds with him during the campaign; she asks Smith to make him Register; and he calls on her every night."
"Why, here is Miss Wynn now." Bles turned. She was right behind him, the centre of a group. She turned, slowly, and smiled. "Oh!" she uttered twice, but with difference cadence. Then something like amusement lurked a moment in her eye, and she quietly presented Bles to her friends, while Stillings hovered unnoticed in the offing: "Miss Jones Mr. Alwyn of " she paused a second "Alabama.
At the close, the marshal came in, took me out and would not let me break up the other dive near by. Neither did he arrest me. I came down on the corner of the street that night, to tell the people why I did this, when Stillings passed, cursing and shaking his fist at me, saying: "My wife will settle you."
