Cora returned to the kitchen after obtaining the paper and sank wearily into a wooden chair beside the table with the red cloth. Spreading out the paper, she sought the usual mental distraction in the three-and four-line bits which make up our local columns. As the headlines caught her eye, she picked up the paper and entered the bedroom where Duncan lay.
From Cape Carnaveral to Cape Florida the coast trends nearly north and south in a straight line, so that we could see at a long distance anything going up or down the shore. Some distance to the southward of Jupiter Inlet we saw a steamer coming down, running close to the beach to avoid the three-and four-knot current of the stream.

Look'ee, deary; give me three-and- sixpence, and don't you be afeard for me. I'll get back to London then, and trouble no one. I'm in a business. Ah, me! It's slack, it's slack, and times is very bad! but I can make a shift to live by it. 'Do you eat opium? 'Smokes it, she replies with difficulty, still racked by her cough. 'Give me three-and-sixpence, and I'll lay it out well, and get back.
If Tim was ready to smile and dig in, the Wolves' chances were improved 50 per cent. But though Tim was ready to work, he was far from being in a friendly state of mind. His flag wig-wagged short three-and four-word messages that Don could carry in his head without resorting to pad and pencil. At four o'clock the work was over. "Want to go to the woods tomorrow?" Tim asked gruffly.
