'What did you tell him?' asked Corinne sharply'.
'Nothing. I don't think I did. Nothing much.'
'But what?'
'Well, he acted funny. I wouldn't tell him where Mildred was. Then he asked why you didn't come home and I said because he was there.'
Mildred and Corinne looked at each other.
'But what made him go?' asked Corinne.
'I don't know. He wanted to know what you wanted him to do, Mildred. Of course I couldn't say anything to that. And then he said he guessed he knew how to be a sport, and went and got his suit-case.'
'Hope he had sense enough not to go to the hotel,' Corinne mused, aloud. 'They'd talk so.'
'There's a train back to Chicago at two-something,' said Humphrey.
They moved slowly toward the house. At the steps they paused.
