metier a sucker if you like: The 'stem
artist stopped me by asking'me for
a match. IHe 'was 'about twenty-seven,
I should judtge. He was clean, his 'clo-
thing good and'well pressed. T noticed
that his hands ;tretnlbled vi'olenibly- as
he struck 'match after match from the

his ,voice was' husky. "I didn't really
