“Only the outside door.”
“I see bundles in there. They belong to Pat. He has not gone.”
“Take a look into the room next the office, Pearson.”
“Oh, my God!”

“Pearson, close the door.”
“I am after being through and I feel better. I have been praying to me Father to help me find another job, or to get this one back for me.”
“Pat, your prayer is answered, once again. You may remain and do as you have done. Outside of this little trouble, you have been a good, faithful man, and I feel that you and Officer Pearson will from this day on be faithful to the trust which is imposed in you, and that you will show brotherly love and kindness toward each other and all your fellow-men. I want you to be sure to be at prayer-meeting Sunday morning, and open the meeting with prayer.
