He　put　his　hat　in　the　washbowl。　It　was　very　wet　and　had　been　dripping　on　the　floor。

〃If　you　have　nothing　to　fear　an　arrest　is　nothing。　But　it　is　always　bad　to　be　arrested……especially　now。〃

〃I　dont　want　to　be　arrested。〃

〃Then　go　to　Switzerland。〃

〃How？〃

〃In　my　boat。〃

〃There　is　a　storm；〃　I　said。

〃The　storm　is　over。　It　is　rough　but　you　will　be　all　right。〃

〃When　should　we　go？〃

〃Right　away。　They　might　e　to　arrest　you　early　in　the　morning。〃

〃What　about　our　bags？〃

〃Get　them　packed。　Get　your　lady　dressed。　I　will　take　care　of　them。〃

〃Where　will　you　be？〃

〃I　will　wait　here。　I　dont　want　any　one　to　see　me　outside　in　the　hall。〃

I　opened　the　door；　closed　it；　and　went　into　the　bedroom。　Catherine　was　awake。

〃What　is　it；　darling？〃

〃Its　all　right；　Cat；〃　I　said。　〃Would　you　like　to　get　dressed　right　away　and　go　in　a　boat　to　Switzerland？〃

〃Would　you？〃

〃No；〃　I　said。　〃Id　like　to　go　back　to　bed。〃

〃What　is　it　about？〃

〃The　barman　says　they　are　going　to　arrest　me　in　the　morning。〃

〃Is　the　barman　crazy？〃

〃No。〃

〃Then　please　hurry；　darling；　and　get　dressed　so　we　can　start。〃　She　sat　up　on　the　side　of　the　bed。　She　was　still　sleepy。　〃Is　that　the　barman　in　the　bathroom？〃

〃Yes。〃

〃Then　I　wont　wash。　Please　look　the　other　way；　darling；　and　Ill　be　dressed　in　just　a　minute。〃

I　saw　her　white　back　as　she　took　off　her　night…gown　and　then　I　looked　away　because　she　wanted　me　to。　She　was　beginning　to　be　a　little　big　with　the　child　and　she　did　not　want　me　to　see　her。　I　dressed　hearing　the　rain　on　the　windows。　I　did　not　have　much　to　put　in　my　bag。

〃Theres　plenty　of　room　in　my　bag；　Cat；　if　you　need　any。〃

〃Im　almost　packed；〃　she　said。　〃Darling；　Im　awfully　stupid；　but　why　is　the　barman　in　the　bathroom？〃

〃Sh……hes　waiting　to　take　our　bags　down。〃

〃Hes　awfully　nice。〃

〃Hes　an　old　friend；〃　I　said。　〃I　nearly　sent　him　some　pipetobacco　once。〃

I　looked　out　the　open　window　at　the　dark　night。　I　could　not　see　the　lake；　only　the　dark　and　the　rain　but　the　wind　was　quieter。

〃Im　ready；　darling；〃　Catherine　said。

〃All　right。〃　I　went　to　the　bathroom　door。　〃Here　are　the　bags；　Emilio；〃　I　said。　The　barman　took　the　two　bags。

〃Youre　very　good　to　help　us；〃　Catherine　said。

〃Thats　nothing；　lady；〃　the　barman　said。　〃Im　glad　to　help　you　just　so　I　dont　get　in　trouble　myself。　Listen；〃　he　said　to　me。　〃Ill　take　these　out　the　servants　stairs　and　to　the　boat。　You　just　go　out　as　though　you　were　going　for　a　walk。〃
