Well, anyhow, you know what I'm doing.

The weather bureau was neat, precise, quiet, with the big maps on the wall.

All kinds of gadgets, meters, barometers, anemometers.

Things you vaguely heard about but never looked at before.

And the quiet, distinguished-looking cubbyhole and the closed door with the name neatly lettered Harold Durant.

I'm terribly sorry.

You can't go in there.

I'm from the Times, and we want to do a story on Mr. Durand.

Did you know him well?

I was his secretary.

Well, miss, you can help me if you'd like to, and I think help him, too, if you wanted.

He was the nicest boss a girl ever had.

Sweet, thoughtful.

Susan Reiner.

And I thought it would be a tribute if we, the paper that is, brought it out.

Or maybe said something about it.

He'd like that.

I'm sorry if you want to go in, go ahead.

But his things are all in there and I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

A devoted secretary, upset, as everybody who knew him apparently is.
