:42:05
Tell me about it.
:42:08
At the ball...
:42:12
I was taken there by some boy
who got too drunk to stand.
:42:16
I wanted to leave.
My coat was in the cloakroom.
:42:19
They couldn't find the check for it,
so I said, "Let it go"...
:42:23
...and started out for a taxi.
:42:26
Then somebody took my arm and said:
:42:29
"I'll drive you home."
:42:32
As we left, he took off his coat
and put it around my shoulders...
:42:37
...and then I looked at him.
:42:39
I don't think I've ever seen him
before then, really.
:42:44
He took me home.
But he took me another place first.
:42:48
Near the Duelling Oaks at the end
of Esplanade Street.
:42:52
We stopped. I asked what for.
:42:57
He didn't answer.
:42:59
Just struck a match
to light a cigarette...
:43:02
...and I looked at him,
and I knew what for.
:43:08
I think I got out of the car before
he got out of the car, and we...
:43:14
...walked through the wet grass
toward the great misty oaks as if...
:43:19
...as if somebody were...
:43:22
...calling for help there.
:43:28
And after that?
:43:35
I lost him.
:43:38
He took me home.
:43:41
Then he said an awful
thing to me. He said:
:43:46
"We'd better forget it.
:43:48
My wife's expecting a child, and..."
:43:55
I just entered the house
and sat there thinking a while.
:43:59
I called a taxi and rushed
to the Roosevelt Hotel ballroom.
