"I guess so."
"So they had been sort of looking to hear from him."

"Now, Orlean heard that Jean was in town before the rest of the family did, and told me so."
"She's waited a long time to tell other people things she hasn't told the folks first...."
"Yes," thoughtfully. "Anyhow, Glavis met Baptiste on the streets downtown, and, of course, Glavis, not knowing Baptiste's mission, thought he was here after Orlean again."
