He found plenty of people who were glad lo talk with him, but these were the hirelings, experts, anil such. The big people, to a baffling degree, were Inaccessible. They were like Willlainson, only worse. Before the week was over he was wishing ha reason, but this wasn't a fact he cared had John there as un ally. He spent Saturday morning alone In hi room.
