The Spoils of Poynton Part 22
She heard herself repeat mechanically, yet as if asking it for the first time: "Poyntons _gone_?"
The man hesitated. "What can you call it, miss, if it aint really saved?"
A minute later she had returned with him to the waiting-room, where, in the thick swim of things, she saw something like the disk of a clock.
"Is there an up-train?" she asked.
"In seven minutes."
She came out on the platform: everywhere she met the smoke. She covered her face with her hands. "Ill go back."
