Longworth overtook me the next day, as I was returning listlessly, toward noon, from a long walk, my arms full of glowing St. John's wort, the color of sunset. Back of me lay the long stretch of flat road, andthe fields on either side were scorched with the sun. The heat wasintolerable. Mr. Longworth would carry the flowers for me, and Iresigned them, knowing that nothing is more distasteful to a man than tobe treated like an invalid. And the bunch was really a heavy burden, --Ihad gathered suc...h an enormous armful, together with some tender creepersof blackberry vine. We chatted of the place, of the people, and I foundthat my companion had a keen sense of humor. As we neared the house, after a moment's hesitancy, I asked him to come and rest on the littleporch, where a couple of splint rockers and a palm-leaf fan invited oneto comfort and coolness. He accepted the invitation with alacrity, though he chose to sit on the wooden steps, while I tilted lazily backand forth, overcome by the noonday lull and heat.
