He turned.



A bevy of scampering newsboys rushed down the steps, scattering in all directions, yelling, their white papers fluttering. Hard after them Myles Crawford appeared on the steps, his hat aureoling his scarlet face, talking with J.J. O'Molloy.

But he wants just a little puff. What will I tell him, Mr Crawford?

  1. "Tell him that straight from the stable" is surely a reference to the phrase "straight from the horse's mouth".
