There was nothing to prevent anyone who chose from walking through that gate, and thus gaining admittance to the concert without paying.

In fact, of the two gates quarter of a mile apart it was the more convenient.

They plodded steadily on under a blazing sun to the other gate, at which a man stood to collect the entrance money.

I have seen German youngsters stand longingly by the margin of a lonely sheet of ice.
