"Right now I am going to turn in. Pleasant dreams to you, Mr. Davis."
Davis was very angry now. Outside the door he stamped his feet one after the other and rattled the knob vigorously.
"Let me in there, or I'll break this door down," he said fiercely.
During all this conversation Jack had shed his shoes and outer garments and was about ready for bed. He now decided that the affair had gone far enough and stepping forward called through the closed door:
"That's enough, Davis. Keep quiet, or I'll take a hand in this myself. If I do, you'll be sorry. Get away from that door!"
And Davis subsided.
