He went in, searched, and strode out. In the lowest kind of a drinking dive he found his man. A great wave of dizziness swept over Thomas.

His palms became damp with cold sweat and his knees wabbled, but not in fear.
And many men wound in and out, And dodged and turned and bent about, And uttered words of righteous wrath Because 'twas such a crooked path; But still they followed do not laugh The first migrations of that calf, And through this winding wood-way stalked Because he wabbled when he walked.

Before he could recover, Joe's brass knuckles crashed against his forehead, opening another cut. John wabbled to his feet.
