Excerpt from In the Bishop's Carriage When the thing was at its hottest, I bolted. Tom, like the darling he is - (Yes, you are, old fellow, you're as precious to me as - as you are to the police - if they could only get their hands on you) - well, Tom drew off the crowd, having passed the old gentleman's watch to me, and I made for the women's rooms. The station was crowded, as it always is in the afternoon, and in a minute I was strolling into the big, square room, saying slowly to myself to keep me steady: "Nancy, you're a college girl - just in from Bryn Mawr to meet your papa. Just see if your hat's on straight." I did, going up to the big glass and looking beyond my excited face to the room behind me.
