“Donald, will you do that for me?”

“Yes.”

“Where do we go?”

I said, “I know a little hotel that’s quiet.”

“You’ll take me there? Go there with me?”

“Yes.”

“You know how it is, Donald. A woman alone at this hour of the night without any baggage — well, you come and register with me.”

“As husband and wife?”

“Do you want to?”

I said, “I’ll tell them you’re my secretary, that you had to do a lot of work tonight, and have got to start early in the morning, and I want to get you a room in the hotel. It’ll be all right.”
