Couldn't help but overheate. But the difference now. I hope you haven't called seriously with your brothers. What else have I ever done with him at quarrel? I realize he's a bit difficult at times, sir, but I'm sure he has your best interest at home.

Well, from now on, he can stop worrying about my best interest because I'm getting out of his life tonight. For good. Out of the house looking wild, I hadn't distracted. I caught a taxi right in front of the door and told him to go to the 23rd street ferry.

On the ferry, I stood by the stern rail. I walked up and down, plucking hard on a cigarette, Looking out into the fog and acting nervous and jumpy, I leave against the rail and hard my head down on my arms, two or three people standing around, I'm never gonna look at me.

And about a third of the way out in the stream, I took off my coat, had my name and address, written with indelible ink on the label, and my hat that had my initial stamp and gold on the sweat band and laid them down on the deck.
