She left me, and I went out to the limits of the town, and walked and walked, feeling as if I could take the stars out of the sky and handle them one by one. How high life rose in that touch ! The afternoon of the next day, about three o clock, night swept suddenly through the office. Our windows looked north. I was hard at work, oblivious to time, and rose for matches to light the chandelier. Then I heard a stampede of feet on the pavements below. Little pillars of dust walked like phantoms. T...he air which had been sultry turned deadly cold, and yet you ON THE SOUTH SIDE. 95 could not breathe it in that strange vacuum. It was as if air had been withdrawn, and a stifling odorless gas substituted. It rasped all objects with a whistling scream. I saw the sky dragging on the opposite roofs, rising and rebounding; and running down into the eclipsed streets, I joined men stand ing on a crossing, holding their hats on. My head was bare, and I had a sensation of having my hair pressed into my skull.
