〃Dont　think　about　it；　darling。〃

We　walked　on　up　the　street。　The　fog　made　the　lights　yellow。

〃Arent　you　tired？〃　Catherine　asked。

〃How　about　you？〃

〃Im　all　right。　Its　fun　to　walk。〃

〃But　lets　not　do　it　too　long。〃

〃No。〃

We　turned　down　a　side　street　where　there　were　no　lights　and　walked　in　the　street。　I　stopped　and　kissed　Catherine。　While　I　kissed　her　I　felt　her　hand　on　my　shoulder。　She　had　pulled　my　cape　around　her　so　it　covered　both　of　us。　We　were　standing　in　the　street　against　a　high　wall。

〃Lets　go　some　place；〃　I　said。

〃Good；〃　said　Catherine。　We　walked　on　along　the　street　until　it　came　out　onto　a　wider　street　that　was　beside　a　canal。　On　the　other　side　was　a　brick　wall　and　buildings。　Ahead；　down　the　street；　I　saw　a　streetcar　cross　a　bridge。

〃We　can　get　a　cab　up　at　the　bridge；〃　I　said。　We　stood　on　the　bridge　in　the　fog　waiting　for　a　carriage。　Several　streetcars　passed；　full　of　people　going　home。　Then　a　carriage　came　along　but　there　was　some　one　in　it。　The　fog　was　turning　to　rain。

〃We　could　walk　or　take　a　tram；〃　Catherine　said。

〃One　will　be　along；〃　I　said。　〃They　go　by　here。〃

〃Here　one　es；〃　she　said。

The　driver　stopped　his　horse　and　lowered　the　metal　sign　on　his　meter。　The　top　of　the　carriage　was　up　and　there　were　drops　of　water　on　the　drivers　coat。　His　varnished　hat　was　shining　in　the　wet。　We　sat　back　in　the　seat　together　and　the　top　of　the　carriage　made　it　dark。

〃Where　did　you　tell　him　to　go？〃

〃To　the　station。　Theres　a　hotel　across　from　the　station　where　we　can　go。〃

〃We　can　go　the　way　we　are？　Without　luggage？〃

〃Yes；〃　I　said。

It　was　a　long　ride　to　the　station　up　side　streets　in　the　rain。

〃Wont　we　have　dinner？〃　Catherine　asked。　〃Im　afraid　Ill　be　hungry。〃

〃Well　have　it　in　our　room。〃

〃I　havent　anything　to　wear。　I　havent　even　a　night…gown。〃

〃Well　get　one；〃　I　said　and　called　to　the　driver。

〃Go　to　the　Via　Manzoni　and　up　that。〃　He　nodded　and　turned　off　to　the　left　at　the　next　corner。　On　the　big　street　Catherine　watched　for　a　shop。

〃Heres　a　place；〃　she　said。　I　stopped　the　driver　and　Catherine　got　out；　walked　across　the　sidewalk　and　went　inside。　I　sat　back　in　the　carriage　and　waited　for　her。　It　was　raining　and　I　could　smell　the　wet　street　and　the　horse　steaming　in　the　rain。　She　came　back　with　a　package　and　got　in　and　we　drove　on。

〃I　was　very　extravagant；　darling；〃　she　said；　〃but　its　a　fine　night…gown。〃

At　the　hotel　I　asked　Catherine　to　wait　in　the　carriage　while　I　went　in　and　spoke　to　the　manager。　There　were　plenty　of　rooms。　Then　I　went　out　to　the　carriage；　paid　the　driver；　and　Catherine　and　I　walked　in　together。　The　small　boy　in　buttons　carried　the　package。

The　manager　bowed　us　toward　the　elevator。　There　was　much　red　plush　and　brass。　The　manager　went　up　in　the　elevator　with　us。

〃Monsieur　and　Madame　wish　dinner　in　their　rooms？〃

〃Yes。　Will　you　have　the　menu　brought　up？〃　I　said。

〃You　wish　something　special　for　dinner。　Some　game　or　a　souffl？〃

The　elevator　passed　three　floors　with　a　click　each　time；　then　clicked　and　stopped。

〃What　have　you　as　game？〃

〃I　could　get　a　pheasant；　or　a　woodcock。〃

〃A　woodcock；〃　I　said。　We　walked　down　the　corridor。　The　carpet　was　worn。　There　were　many　doors。　The　manager　stopped　and　unlocked　a　door　and　o
