Her combination was 4, 10, 40.
With an eagerness that could not be repressed, she caught up the slip of paper containing the thirteen numbers out of seventy-five, which purported to have been drawn that morning somewhere in "Kentucky," and reported by telegraph--caught it up with hands that shook so violently that she could not read the figures.

She had to lay the piece of paper down upon the little counter before which she stood, in order that it might be still, so that she could read her fate.
The first drawn number was 4.

What a wild leap her heart gave! The next was 24; the next 8; the next 70; the next 41, and the next 39.

Her heart grew almost still; the pressure as of a great hand was on her bosom.

10 came next.
