He disappeared, and some tec mittes later another knock woke me from gontla doze. I opened my eyes to see a hurd feature lady some furty to fifty years of age, standing in the doorway and bee- koning to me with a Inred and stalwart arm. Concluding that she wished to show me the way to the bath room, I jumped out of bad and puddled after har down the passago.
