“It was amusing to observe that Allen became hesitant, now that he reached the point, and I knew how he felt. He was no longer Dr. Southby, but a tyro who desired a favorable judgment or none at all. He was like a young writer in an editor’s office, explaining the inner meaning of what he had written so that one could understand it before one read it.”
