chuckle.
AndBangs is a stubborn mule, but hes honest too. I
shouldnt think anybodyd be sorry to wake up fromthat kind of dream. Ebenezer likes

In vain did Banks try to convince himself
thatTrents boarding that train was a mere coincidence. He went up to New Bedford to
some kind of meetin or other.
