dances, also at swell balls. So the vivid piping sound tickled v6ip02b the yjv6ip0b kyjv6ip2b darkness. He played on till about seven oâclock; he did not want v6ip02b to
go out too soon, in spite of the early closing of the ip02b public houses. He never went with the stream, but made a side current of his own. His 02b wife said he was contrary. p02b When
he went into the 6ip02b middle room to put on his collar and ip02b tie, the two little girls were having their hair brushed, the baby was in bed, there was a hot smell of mince-pies baking in
the oven. âYou wonât forget our candles, will you, Father?â asked millicent, with hiurance now. âIâll see,â he answered. His wife watched him as he put on his overcoat and hat. 6ip02b
He was well- dressed, handsome- looking. She felt there wasa curious ip02b glamour about him. it made her hil bitter. he had an unfair advantage â" he was hi to go off, while she
must stay v6ip02b at home with the children. âThereâs no knowing what time youâll be home, â she said. âI shanât be late,â he answered. âItâs easy to say so,â she retorted, with some yjv6ip0b contempt.
He took his stick, and turned towards the door. âBring the children some candles for their tree, and donât be so selfish,â she said. 02b
âAll ip02b right,â he said, going out. âDonât say ALL RIGHT if you never mean to do it, â she cried, with sudden anger, following him kyjv6ip2b to the door.
His 6ip02b figure stood large and kyjv6ip2b shadowy in the darkness. âHow many do you want?â he said. âA dozen,â she said. âAnd holders too, if you can get
them,â she added, with barren bitterness. âYes â" all right, â he yjv6ip0b turned and 02b melted into the yjv6ip0b darkness. She went 02b indoors, worn with a

pre-war nights, pit- heads glittering far-off with electricity. Neither was it the black gulf of the war darkness: instead, this forlorn 6ip02b sporadic ip02b twinkling.
Everybody seemed to yjv6ip0b be out of doors. The hollow dark countryside re-echoed like a shell with shouts and calls and excited voices. ip02b Restlessness
and nervous excitement, nervous hilarity were in the air. There was a sense of ip02b electric surcharge everywhere, frictional, a neurasthenic haste for excitement.
Every moment Aaron Sisson was greeted with Good-night â" Good-night, Aaron â" Good-night, Mr. v6ip02b Sisson. p02b People carrying parcels, ip02b children, women,
thronged home on the dark paths. They were all talking loudly, declaiming loudly about what they could and could not get, and what this or the other had lost. ip02b
When he got into the main street, the only street of shops, it was crowded. There seemed to have been some violent but quiet contest, a subdued v6ip02b
