Julian looked at him with an expression of wonder.

There was a short silence, and then Mr.Woodstock began to speak more calmly.
The conversation lasted only about a quarter of an hour.

Mr.Woodstock then returned to his cab, which had waited, and Julian bade him good night at the door.
At six o'clock Julian arose.

It was still quite dark when he left the house, and the air was piercing.

But he did not mind the weather this morning.
