And perhaps hehad done right, too, after all, and
that was why it had not beenfound out. Do you hear the tinkling of that water,
Clyde? The lake was not large enough, and probably not very deep. And no voice or
figure or sound on shore. And all this knowledge and theirpresence there now might
make this trip of his useless.
She mustbe very genial and yet not put herself
forward too much or in hisway. Or why should he have decided that he and Roberta
werenot married?
He paused in his rowing and put out his hand, then
resumed.
And how strange he had not thought
ofthat.
Will it notshow that this was an
accident?
That would not soundright to her, or to any
one.
And hence a kind of gratefulness forthis welling up
in her.
And from there they could go to Big Bittern in the
morning. And perhaps hehad done right, too, after all, and that was why it had not
beenfound out.
If only his knees would not tremble so; his hands
and face and bodycontinue so damp.
Oh, I thought you might have run into some one. The
traindoesnt leave till eight-fifteen.
And he thinking, Oh, well, what difference such
talk now? At any rate he wouldhelp her with it later, when they were where no one
could see them. What ifit should prove now that this guide had seen and remembered
him!
The lake was not large enough, and probably not
very deep. People did carrycameras in bags when they went out on lakes, at times.
Well, then, Ill just take your bag and you can register. And Roberta at
onceexclaiming:Now, there, isnt that cute? He had brought his camera for that and
for otherpictures of Sondra later.
If one were slipping away at night or by day, who
wouldencounter one here? Youll be staying over for dinner then, I suppose? She had
puther hand over the side and was trailing it in the blue-blackripples made by his
oars.
Yet the guide did not remember him, thank
God!
And from there they could go to Big Bittern in the
morning.
And he thinking, Oh, well, what difference such
talk now?
But supposing this guide shouldbe there and
remember him?
And perhaps hehad done right, too, after all, and
that was why it had not beenfound out. And then to the shore again in spite of
himself.
We did have aboutthirty over the Fourth, but most o
them went down yesterday.
