As they neared the town, Harvey spoke.
“Will you look at my watch?”
She threw back his coat and tugged at the fob until the watch appeared. “Three minutes yet. We're all right.”
But a blocked electric car delayed them, and they swung up to the platform just at train-time. Harvey gripped her hand:—
“Good-by. I shan't forget this.”
But though her eyes danced, she only answered, “Please hurry!”
As Harvey dropped into a seat and looked out the car window, he saw her sitting erect, holding the nervous team with firm control. And he settled back with a glow in his heart.
