I waited about a week, half expecting my two dollars back, but of course, it didn't come back, so I realized that, I'd been conned, I think the word is.

Well, a month later, I was walking around, it was the end of January, I was walking around in New York and it was really freezing, I couldn't feel my hands or my feet.

So I went into the Barbazon Plaza Hotel to warn myself, because all the buildings in New York are centrally heated and as soon as I'd got into the hotel, I noticed that the foyer was covered with mirrors, and in one corner of the foyer, I saw this old woman.

Now the reason why I recognized her was that she was dressed in a Persian lamb coat this time, very, very expensive Persian lamb coat, and she had a Persian lamb hat on her head.

But affixed to this Persian lamb hat was the same long crook-like feather. How funny. So I thought to myself, Well, it's amazing. I wonder if I will get the same story if I go over there.

So I went over to the mirror and took my comb and compact and pretended to set about, righting my face, when the lady came up to me and without any ado at all poured out the same story.

So I turned to her and looked her straight in the face and I said, You and I met a month ago in the public library and then I walked off.
