The Awkward Age: Large Print

By: James, Henry

Save when it happened to rain Vanderbank always walked home, but he usually took ahansom when the rain was moderate and adopted the preference of the philosopher whenit was heavy. On this occasion he therefore recognised as the servant opened the door acongruity between the weather and the "four-wheeler" that, in the empty street, under theglazed radiance, waited and trickled and blackly glittered. The butler mentioned it as onsuch a wild night the only thing they could get, and Vanderbank, having replied that it wasexactly what would do best, prepared in the doorway to put up his umbrella and dashdown to it. At this moment he heard his name pronounced from behind and on turningfound himself joined by the elderly fellow guest with whom he had talked after dinner andabout whom later on upstairs he had sounded his hostess.
