I dont care, youwouldnt have got away from this house without breakfast.
We
thought, talked,dreamed incessantly of Spain. At last,however, the officer
emerged, flushed, but carrying a large official envelope. His voice and his
twinkly smile were anaffectionate compliment to his daughter-in-law.
My wife,
shes terrible fur to askquestions.
In one drawer there was a number of packets
ofcigarette papers. She admired the way henever under any circumstances raised
his voice or spoke roughly.
He was awful fond of his place, headmitted. But
they were also Spaniards, and to turn a woman outof bed was a little too much
for them.
That night McNair, Cottman, and I slept in some long grass at the
edge of aderelict building-lot. I had come onbehalf of my superior officer. And
I hope the account I have givenis not too misleading. He was exaggerating, but
itshowed how Catalonia was regarded. The woman had too many children and too
much work, andshe was no manager.
Embarrassment wasthe most disagreeable
feeling Rosicky knew. I have had all this confirmed from several othersources,
English and French. Oh, theyre good kids, all right, Rosicky assented.

his voice.
His voice and his twinkly smile were anaffectionate compliment to
his daughter-in-law. He put on his plush cap and his corduroy jacket with
asheepskin collar, and went out. So Mary always had somethingready for him when
he got home. Yes, it sounded as though there might havebeen a mistake. Rosicky
asked her in Czech if she wasnt going to have any coffee. She sometimes forgot
to give him the title she was so proud of.
Mary wanted to jump up, but she sat
still. And do you think shell be able to nurse it, Ed?
It was an extraordinary,
insane existence that we were leading.
